[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Re: Tungsten C and Missing Sync -- STILL NEED HELP

[Mac Mike]

Bill,

Be careful with this warning.  Any mention of "HotSync" is really referring
to "Missing Sync".  If you open Palm's HotSync, you might have to start all
over again as this will set your default sync manager to HotSync and
override Missing Sync.

It sounds like you have setup the iSync Palm Conduit within Missing Sync.
Have you clicked on the little picture of your PalmOne device in the iSync
bar?  If not, do this and make sure you have the details of this set up
correctly.

I have not yet used the new iSync Palm Conduit, so I'm just assuming that
setup is similar to that from Panther.
