[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Zire 71 Sync Problem

[Richard Saltzman]

I looked in the Library/Application Support. The Palm Desktop folder is 
empty and the Palm HotSync folder has the Conduits(Apple, 
Bakup,Install,TimeCopy).
The Palm Folder is my Documents. Under "Users", I have "Palm Users" 
which has nothing connected to it, and "rsaltzman" my handheld's name. 
There are many files and folders under "rsaltzman".
I'm not too computer literate but I'm following the MS Manual to a "T". 
The Palm people are sending me another handheld to see if it has a 
problem. I don't know if it's meaningful, but I did have problems 
installing the Palm software at the beginning of this debacle. That 
convinced me to delete it and go to MS. Thanks for your help.

When deleting the Palm files, did you remove the Palm folder in ~/
Documents or the Palm Conduits folder in ~/Library/Application Support?

The Palm folder in ~/Documents contains the User files and is needed by
MissingSync, as this is where the connection data and backup files are
kept.  Put this folder back if you  removed it.

Since you can see the conduits in MS, you probably still have the Palm
Conduits folder in place.
