I agree, I think the problem is with iCal too... as it is the only program affected, and the only program which interacts with MissingSync. :-) Your suggested fix doesn't work here. Has Missing Sync left a file in an unreadable state? Because theh sync process works fine. Items are transferred from mac to Treo, but nothing redraws into the To Do panel.

Message-ID: I stopped using my buggy Lifedrive but the allure of wi-fi syncing got too much. I have set up the connection as described in the set-up assistant to the letter, checked the IP address of the Mac, done the same with my PB, all to no avail. Assuming I have indeed followed the instructions correctly, how best to troubleshoot this, anyone? I've tried reinstalling MS 5.1, erasing the Lifedrive, setting up a new user but cannot get any response from Missing Sync. (and I've also toggled the connections and the prefs to every setting). cheers From danielg at bu.edu Mon Apr 3 07:24:03 2006 From: danielg at bu.edu (Daniel Goldenholz) Date: Mon Apr 3 07:24:06 2006 Subject: [missing-sync-palmos-talk] Super Duper Slow Calendar In-Reply-To: <44284DA6.9000905@bu.edu> References: <44284DA6.9000905@bu.edu> Message-ID: <44313003.1040304@bu.edu> Hi again. No one ever replied to my previous message. I solved it myself. I thought someone else may benefit from this info: I spent hours digging through the internet and playing with hard-resets and so forth. In the end, I learned this: it is possible for a calendar file to somehow get screwed up, and slow your Palm Calendar program down to idiotically slow speeds. It does not seem to reflect the number of events. It is either a bad event, or a bad calendar. What I did was create a new calendar, manually entered in the info for it (same as my old, faulty calendar), and after a hard reset and re-installing everything, my Calendar works fine again. Since for some reason, you cannot have events that span multiple days in Palm Calendar, the workaround there is to simply use the repeating event option instead.

Launch iSync. Go to iSync Preferences. Click the "Reset Sync History" button. Restart. Launch any of the aforementioned applications. That should trigger them to synchronize. Sync with Missing Sync. For whatever reason, when we begin our sync session with Tiger, the other applications that also sync might be blocking that, or just taking a long time to complete their sync (which is required before we can go ahead). Resetting the sync history will revert all sync clients to a "first sync" state. b On Apr 3, 2006, at 5:43 PM, Graham Burnette wrote: > I was hopeful that it might resolve my inability to sync, but I > just loaded 10.4.6 and got no change.

Smart Folders are queries and we'd have to generate the query (the query could take a lot of time depending on your criteria), reference back to the original files and then do the sync. Nothing is impossible, but it is highly unlikely that we'll implement this any time in the near future. -- Scott Gruby Lead Engineer Mark/Space, Inc.

Does sync services play a part? > Sync Services plays every part in that. We go through a phase called "pulling" in which we ask Sync Services for a list of changed records (deletes/adds/modifies). For each of those, we must find out what the "parent" record is (i.e. if there is a changed phone number, we need to process the entire parent contact). Once we have the parent, we either update or add it to the device. Then we tell Sync Services that we've accepted that record. It is possible that iCal hasn't synchronized the events into the sync engine, which would mean that we aren't seeing them. However, it is also might be that we are not handling them correctly. I recommend making a backup of your iCal data and filing a support request. With the data, we can attempt to reproduce this and hopefully fix whatever might be failing. > I've also noticed that a number of Alarms that I specify as being x > minutes (or hours etc.) before an event seem to be getting changed > to an explicit time.

Here is why: I had the problem for a while, and during the time of the problem I had been adding new ical events. Step 1, I synced subsets of my calendars until I located the troublesome one. Then when I was troubleshooting it, I cut and pasted events out of my synced calendar into a temp calendar. I cut all but 5 recently added ones, and the trouble still existed. Also, I set my palm date to 2011, and purged all previous events, and the calendar was still slow. Therefore in light of the above two bits of info, I suspected that the calendar had somehow gotten some screwy corruption that was hidden from me. By manually rewriting the events, I was sure that I knew exactly what was going in. Also - I made sure to avoid "banner" events, i.e. events that span more than one day. Instead I used "repeating" events. I don't know if that helped or not, but I read online that this is a known bug as well. Blaine Wilson wrote: > Hi Daniel, > > Thank you for the report.

The bad news: I got errors in the sync log saying that some of them couldn't be used, and those were not transfered. How can I get the rest of those songs into pTunes if Missing Sync refuses them?

Criscuolo) Date: Wed Apr 5 10:52:55 2006 Subject: [missing-sync-palmos-talk] Detached events not syncing In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: iCal really does "detach" the event from the recurrence sequence. There is no equivalent, however, on the Palm. What we end up seeing is a recurring event with some number of detachments. We create a recurring event for the Palm, with exceptions on the days that are detached in iCal. Then we create new events for the Palm that would reflect the detached iCal events. We then remember those new events, as if there is a change we might need to get back to the original desktop event. So your statement about the event being a single occurrence event is correct, but it is still tied (two ways) to the original recurring event, and we have to do some fun stuff to keep that association intact. b On Apr 5, 2006, at 1:47 PM, Patricia Warwick wrote: > I'm curious about the significance of detached events.

I tried several times with conduit different configurations to get this to happen but with no success - just hanging at initialising the sync every time. I found this a simple fix - launch iSync, open Prefs and click "Reset Sync History", then Restart the Mac. Everything went perfectly after that, as it always did. This is all thanks to 'b' at this link: http://lists.markspace.com/pipermail/missing-sync-palmos-talk/2006- April/007850.html I'd love MarkSpace to mention such things upon release of new versions - so many new releases I've found giving problems that have entailed the hassles of reinstalling Palm, reinstalling MissingSync etc etc which is above and beyond the call of reason as far as I'm concerned when all I want to do is update a piece of software!

I had been using the Mark/Space Photos conduit to sync about 300 photos to my Palm Lifedrive, also running the latest OS available. I was syncing from an iPhoto album to which I would add photos periodically. Everything worked great for months, until about 2 or 3 weeks ago, I noticed that my newest photos weren't syncing. I have tried removing all photos from the device and from the iPhoto album, then rebuilding the album and syncing again. I've tried turning various settings in the conduit off and on. I repaired permissions on the Mac, I did at least three soft resets on the handheld. I even tried the "send Photos to Palm" function in iPhoto. They synced via "Install", but not all of them. Again, some of the pictures including the newest ones didn't sync. I have between 1GB and 500MB on the Lifedrive, depending on other content, so there's plenty of room for the photos. Now, strangely, when I mount the Lifedrive via Drive Mode, I can't even drag photos from iPhoto into the DCIM/MarkSpace directory when before i started tweaking and troubleshooting, I could. When I try to drag them, the cursor turns to a circle with a slash through the middle indicating that operation is prohibited. Moving other files in the Finder to the Lifedrive works fine via Drive Mode, but that's very impractical due to the way iPhoto organizes pictures. I just want it to work again! I'm mostly baffled because it worked great for many months, then just stopped working. I did recently upgrade to iPhoto 6, but that was last week and the problem existed in iPhoto 5. In fact, I was hoping that the upgrade would fix it. It didn't. I have also upgraded to each of the various beta versions of Missing Sync, then the recent release of 5.1. Anyone else had a similar problem?

If so, I suspect that when you converted the songs you ended up with two copies of each song, one in AAC and one in mp3. Then, in your playlist you probably have a few AAC songs and a few mp3. If you right-click (ctrl+click) the song in iTunes, you can choose Show song file. This way you can verify the actual files that the playlist is linking to.

We have it on our list as a potential feature; however, if the players use different formats we probably won't be able to support both of them (we try to work with standards, but there seem to be several standards for storing playlist information). -- Scott Gruby Lead Engineer Mark/Space, Inc.

For some months I've been having the sorts of issues that are commonly being reported with iCal - no calendars in list; no events show up at first - only after switching views; and so on. I've read the various info here and on Apple's discussion areas about how to fix it - but the fixes never seem to last. A week ago or so I installed MS 5.1 (had been using various of the 5.0 versions for a while, but not the 5.1 betas). I was hoping that it might solve the problems - but actually it's got stranger! The first few sync attempts started well, but the whole process ground to a halt while in the 'Events' section and MS was reporting 'pushing changes from device'. In each case that kept up for an hour or so before either giving up or crashing! It occurred to me that the sync process might have been affected by the change from Daylight Saving. (I'm in Sydney, Australia - and we had a 'one off' change to the end-date for Daylight Saving this year because of the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne. Apple fixed it in one of their updates, so my computer changed correctly - but my Palm T5 changed a week early). I wasn't sure it would cause problems - but, just in case, I waited until everything was back to correct time. I tried disabling the 'Events' conduit, and everything else worked perfectly - so the problem is obviously in there somewhere. When it kept crashing, I held my breath and tried resetting the sync history. Then it all seemed to work OK. In the process, it reported there were 42 changes to iCal, but that didn't seem excessive, so I said OK. Everything now looks fine ... except ... All the events are there on my Palm - the calendar seems in great shape. But nothing shows in iCal. Not a single event! (By the way, in one sense this isn't a great problem to me. I only use the Palm to add events or to look them up - I just want to be sure it's backed up.) Deleting the contents of the Sources folder makes no difference. Deleting prefs files makes no difference. I presume all the info is still there in the sync services database ... Or is it? If anyone has any bright ideas, I'd be glad to hear them - it has me puzzled! For info, I have a Powerbook G4 667, OS X 10.4.6, Palm T5, and I don't have a .mac membership, so no syncing with anything other than between the Palm and the computer.

When we're sending records from the device to the desktop ("pushing") we have to set up multiple relationships between different types of data. In this case, we are pushing an event (palm database ID 8610684) that we think has an alarm. We tell Sync Services that the event we just sent to it also has an alarm with a specific ID (the one listed in the error). When we begin processing alarm data, we're failing send the *data* of that alarm with the already referenced ID. Sync Services maintains a relational database of information, and it needs to have things match up when a sync client is pushing data in. You're right, the message is pretty useless. If we had control over it we could get some more information about it. Come to think of it, we might be able to - hmmmm. In this case, there is something with a particular event on the device that is causing the issue. > Not to mention that the "following record" is > "com.markspace.missingsync.palmos.events_3092211450_Ecom.markspace.mis > singsync.palmos.events_3092211450_8610684_audioalarm_1", which I > have no way to correlate with my view of events. > If you had some kind of application on your device (FileZ would do it) you could look at the calendar database and see what the record data is.

I made some progress last night. I don't use alarms much, so I had a suspect event, a meeting with a specific time that repeats weekly. The event was already synchronized. I had then added an alarm on the device (a Treo 650), and gotten the error message above on the next sync. Yesterday I deleted the alarm, but left the event, and the the sync proceeded without error messages (though it took 20 minutes instead of 2-3, I assume because of the previous error). If that's not enough for you to reproduce the error, let me know, and I'll see what I can do. -- /Jonathan Lundell.

The key is that the event has to be created on the desktop and the alarm added on the handheld. It will not happen to an event created on the handheld. Patricia, I know you were having a similar error to this. Could this explain the issue that you're seeing as well? Here are the steps: 1. Create an event on the desktop. A standard 1 hour event today (non- repeating) will work. 2. Sync it to the handheld. 3. Add an alarm on the handheld (the default 5 minutes will work). 4. sync again. 5. error in log.

Message-ID: Hi All, I need to use Missing Sync (MS) with Entourage to sync Entourage addresses, calendars, tasks to my PDA as my main sync from my office desktop to my Sony Cli?. I realize that it's pretty ancient, however everything used to be OK until... Mac announced their new database and MS adopted it. I also need Filemaker7 database sync via FM Mobile, Palm(?) Install, Backup, MPG, SplashWallet Suite components- SplashID, Splashshopper, SplashPohoto, and TimeCopy. I also would like to use another nifty MS sync feature iTunes to the Cli?'s MP3 player. This clearly does not work without 'restructuring' recopying(?) everything to the Cli?, if then. I need some connectivity between my laptop and the Splash series which used to sync OK, but not Entourage stuff which I sync directly. I'm afraid to even try that one! My overall issues with the whole set up are as follows: ? Compatibility. Which 'system' should I use? Entourage supports the new Mac database system compatible with iSync, iCal, addressbook or it own internal database, but not both. So how to decide and how to implement? Is it too many choices? I just can't figure this out. ? Multiple computers to a single PDA. I just about had figured out to use only one desktop to one PDA for addresses and datebook/contaqct management, but now what? ? Operations/sync errors. Filemaker keeps saying that one of the databases fails (error1) where it used to work before. That database sometimes works and syncs by itself, but never when used in combination with others. Itunes will not sync and crashes totally. Backup crashes occasionally forcing the Cli? to a soft reset. None of the other possible MS conduits are involved other than mentioned here. Can anybody help sort this out?

After the boot drive on my Mac G4 died recently, (and which I wasn't backing up) I switched to an older drive I used to boot from, (so I had an older version of my Address Book, etc. on it) updated Mac OS, all the iApps, and Missing Sync on it, and tried to get all my data synchronized with iSync/Missing Sync. (I sync .Mac, a Clie PEG-NX70, and a Motorola V710 phone.) After syncing, in the Clie Address Book, many of the entries are not displayed in alphabetical order like they normally are. However, some of them are, for example, when I view only contacts in the 'Family' category, most of them ARE listed in alphabetical order, although at the end of that list there are a number of addresses not in alphabetical order. Has anyone else seen this behavior in their PDA address book, and does anyone know how to correct this?

The best piece of advice I can give is to treat one of the machines (probably the Windows PC) as a "slave" by setting the conduits on it to "handheld overwrites desktop". Synching with multiple desktops is by-and-large safe, as long as you don't modify the same record in more than one place between syncs. Treating one of the machines as a slave reduces the problems you're likely to face. -- _ Ben Steeves bcs@metacon.ca ( ) The ASCII ribbon campaign ben.steeves@unb.ca X against HTML e-mail GPG ID: 0xB3EBF1D9 / \ http://www.metacon.ca/ascii Yahoo Messenger: ben_steeves From danielg at bu.edu Sun Apr 9 13:34:15 2006 From: danielg at bu.edu (Daniel Goldenholz) Date: Sun Apr 9 13:34:30 2006 Subject: [missing-sync-palmos-talk] itunes sync - doesn't work unless repeated, BUG?

According to the Apple UPGRADE WARNING: If you have modified iSync or installed third-party software to support your specific model of phone, or if if iSync 2.2 specifically adds support for your specific model of phone, you should consider removing your phone from iSync, undoing these changes and uninstalling that software before upgrading. Your phone will not work with iSync after applying the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Software Update and your third party software will need to be updated. What should I do? Can I go ahead and install the upgrade or will I encounter a problem? What is Missing Sync doing? ... What is it doing to inform its users? -goetz Goetz Wolff gwolff@ucla.edu -------------------------------- Urban Planning Department 5265 PPB UCLA School of Public Affairs Los Angeles, CA 90095 - Box 951656 (310) 206-4285 / fax (310) 206-5566 -------------------------------- (Off-campus office) 1221 Olancha Drive Los Angeles, CA 90065 (323) 254-6369 -------------------------------- Home Phone: (323) 340-8478 -------------------------------- Mac OS 10.4 _______________________________________________ missing-sync-palmos-talk mailing list missing-sync-palmos-talk@lists.markspace.com To unsubscribe, send an email (no subject required) from your subscribed email address to: missing-sync-palmos-talk-leave@lists.markspace.com Bob Arnold Institute for Doctor-Patient Communication Section of Palliative Care and Medical Ethics rabob@pitt.edu http://www.upmc.edu/palliativecare For oncology fellows --> http://www.oncotalk.info SUPPORT THE PALLIATIVE CARE TRAINING ACT: http:// www.aahpm.org/about/ trainingact.html. w-412-692-4834 FAX - 412-692-4315 beeper-412-647-7243, #2322 "Suffering is not a question which demands an answer, it is not a problem which demands a solution, it is a mystery which demands a presence."
