I removed a lot of stuff not pertinent to the issue. What do you guys think. Can someone just respond so l know this is going through. ___ Kerry Now about the Email addresses T700p T650, TX, T3 and Life Drive What I did, in Address Book delete all "E-mail" custom labels, (review all contacts, made sure that all addresses had either home/work/other and no other labels existed). So for each contact I've checked that the label e-mail was not listed in the drop-down menu. If it was, while the "e-mail" label is still checked for a contact, I used the custom menu and erased it. So the contact's e-mail would revert to Home or Work or Other. I've cleaned them all up, did a backup of the file. (Go to Address Book, click on 'File' menu and choose 'Back up Address Book'.) Now to get it to the device, I've reset the sync history and set the Mark/Space Contacts conduit to overwrite. Initiated a sync, receive a isync alert (with orange icon on it*) checked the box to erase the device and Voil?! Did some sync afterward and nothing changed. * You need to see this window, if you don't the reset did not work properly. What is happening is this On the T700p and T650, Address Book have H/W/O labels for e-mail, did an overwrite of the T700p and got E-mail label for all the email addresses except for Other (as expected for this device), did a sync after and Address Book kept the H/W/O labels. On a Palm TX, T3 and Life Drive, Address Book have H/W/O labels for e-mail, did an overwrite of the devices and got H/W/O labels for all the email addresses (as expected for those devices), did a sync afterward, Address Book and all devices kept the H/W/O labels. Now if you want your Life drive to have the E-mail label for all email addresses, in Address Book you will need to crate the label "E-mail". This one should sync properly. How to reset the sync service and sync history. Do some backups first Follow those simple steps 1. Go to Address Book, click on 'File' menu and choose 'Back up Address Book'. Go to iCal, click on 'File' menu and choose 'Back up database'. 2. Go to Missing Sync and double click on the Backup Conduit and set it to backup all databases. Then run the sync with just that Backup conduit selected, disable all other conduits. 3. Go to: /Users//Documents/Palm/Users// now hold the 'ctrl' key and click on the /Backups/ folder. Choose the option to 'Create Archive of "Backups"'. This is to safeguard your backed up data in case anything goes wrong. Now 'Reset Sync History' using the iSync preferences option. The first sync will likely be slower. 1) Launch iSync 2) Click on the iSync menu 3) Choose Preferences (make sure the "Enable syncing on this computer" is checked) 4) Click the 'Reset Sync History' button. Read and follow the onscreen directions. 5) This may launch iCal. Also the status of the reset is showing in the iSync display. When the reset is complete quit both iSync and iCal. Launch Missing Sync and enable the Mark/Space Contacts, Events and Tasks conduits and set them to Desktop overwrite Handheld. Disable all other conduits. Then sync, when you do, you will get a dialog box with an orange iSync icon** on it. Check the box to erase the device, then click the 'Allow' button. It will overwrite your device. You will get one for events, one for tasks, and one for contacts. The next time you sync .mac or other devices that sync with iSync like an iPod, you will get these same dialog boxes for their databases and you should check the box and click 'Allow' in those cases as well. **If you don't get this warning window, advise me it means that the reset of the sync history didn't work as planed. I'll give you something stronger to fix it. If you press the don't allow button you will need to reboot your computer. Let me know of your progress.

You said it yourself that HotSync on the PC says it will remove anything over 1 week old on the CLIE.

There you'll find different settings for the different apps. Choose an app - say Calendar and set it the way you want it. You can tell it to sync items 8 weeks back, all the items etc. You can do this for each module.

Missing Sync suggested doing the following. However, I'm worried this is a conduit problem. If I sync using Entourage it comes into the Palm properly as an E-Mail label. However the Markspace conduit is not transferring this properly. Do people think the following technique will solve the problem. The reason I'm reluctant to do this is I manually entered all my Palm email addresses with the E-mail label. If it resyncs them as Other and I have to manually re-enter all the addresses its will drive me nuts. What do you think? ___ Kerry Now about the Email addresses T700p T650, TX, T3 and Life Drive What I did, in Address Book delete all "E-mail" custom labels, (review all contacts, made sure that all addresses had either home/work/other and no other labels existed).

So the contact's e-mail would revert to Home or Work or Other. I've cleaned them all up, did a backup of the file. (Go to Address Book, click on 'File' menu and choose 'Back up Address Book'.) Now to get it to the device, I've reset the sync history and set the Mark/Space Contacts conduit to overwrite. Initiated a sync, receive a isync alert (with orange icon on it*) checked the box to erase the device and Voil?! Did some sync afterward and nothing changed. * You need to see this window, if you don't the reset did not work properly. What is happening is this On the T700p and T650, Address Book have H/W/O labels for e-mail, did an overwrite of the T700p and got E-mail label for all the email addresses except for Other (as expected for this device), did a sync after and Address Book kept the H/W/O labels. On a Palm TX, T3 and Life Drive, Address Book have H/W/O labels for e-mail, did an overwrite of the devices and got H/W/O labels for all the email addresses (as expected for those devices), did a sync afterward, Address Book and all devices kept the H/W/O labels.

Criscuolo) Date: Tue Oct 3 06:25:20 2006 Subject: [missing-sync-palmos-talk] E-Mai Address label Missing Sync suggestion In-Reply-To: <438-SnapperMsgF9EDB6B5C147A187@[10.0.1.3]> References: <438-SnapperMsgF9EDB6B5C147A187@[10.0.1.3]> Message-ID: <7A116AF2-4128-460D-8550-FFF74CBB55EC@markspace.com> Kerry, I'd like to give you the background on this issue: When we were first in beta of the 5.0 release, people complained if they were using a Treo that they had "blank" entries in their phone dialer app. This is because the list is generated by looking at field labels rather than content, so the field would be "Home" but still contain an email address (as it does in Address Book). It is a poor way for that app to parse for phone numbers, but that's the way it goes. A change was made so that if someone is using a Treo device (now including the 700p), any email fields on the desktop (regardless of their label) would be labeled "E-mail" on the device. However, this isn't the way we really wanted to go with it, since we aren't maintaining a 1:1 field label match during our sync - we're making an exception for the unfortunate design of the app on the Treo, and for those users the phone dialer is of the utmost importance. In 5.1.1, there was a bit of a fix for this so that it would work more consistently, and added support for the 700p. As to Address Book entries with the label E-mail, the *type* of email address is "other" and so it maps 1:1 to "Other" on non-Treo devices. There isn't a great solution to this - there are compromises in both ways of dealing with it. Is there anything with the LifeDrive that "needs" (as the Treos do) a label to be set as E-mail? b On Oct 3, 2006, at 12:53 AM, Kerry D wrote: > > I'm finding that Addressbook entries w label E-mail are coming into > the Palm as Other.

I think they did this due to something to do with the Treo. But they've made a mistake. If you use the Entourage conduit it comes ino the Palm as label E-mail. Treo users have no problem. Markspace needs to correct their conduit so that an Addressbook entry that is labeled E-mail comes into the Palm as label E-mail. If you create it on the palm as label E-mail it comes into Addressbook as E-mail. This starts looking real messy until they correct this.

No, really, I think I am trying to find the Outlook settings. :) I really can't locate them. Entourage doesn't exist on the PC and that's where it seems my older dates are being purged. I don't even use Entourage on the Mac. I know people are using this both with Mac and PC synchs (the PDA makes a great go-between). I can't find any setting in Outlook or Outlook calendar section prefs re: synching dates, and Intellisynch only seem to have settings for conflict resolution (PDA wins or Outlook wins).

In fact, if you look at the Treo, Lifedrive and TX forums, you'll see lots of issues (not so much with the TX). One of the main issues has to do with their new memory architecture referred to as NVFS and this has caused not only problems for Palm built in apps but especially with third party apps that just don't work with this architecture very well. But there is lots of other stuff over there - Palm isn't what it used to be. They've pushed their OS Garnet long beyond its useful life and it looks like nothing to replace it is imminent although they've been talking about version 6 for 3 years now. The big new story under the news section is the major share holder of Palm wants the company sold to the likes of Motorola etc before they are swamped by the bigger companies who are rapidly jumping into this market. As an example, RIMs shares have hit an all time high with the intro of the first consumer oriented multimedia device the Pearl. Regardless Missing Sync needs to push E-mail addresses to the Palm as label E-mail. If you create an item on your Palm with label E-mail it ends up in Addressbook as E-mail. As you can imagine, this is going to look super messy. Kerry On Oct 3, 2006, at 2:16 PM, Lori M Olson wrote: > They have not "made a mistake".

In the Mac's addressbook they changed their conduit in 5.1.1 to push it across as other as opposed to E-mail. The Treo is looking for the phone numbers listed as work or home to make calls. My understanding is that it is some problem on the Treo recognizing numbers for dialing. If an E-mail listed as E- mail on the Treo causes a problem then there is a problem with the Treo. I wouldn't be surprised as Palm has a lot of problems on their newer devices they never used to have. However the Treo 650 is an older device so there may definitely be a problem there.

Zire 31, running the Palm OS which came with it. Recently upgraded MissingSync to 5.1.1, which is the only recent software change. I use Life Balance, which uses the iCal database to store certain kinds of date-dependent tasks. A couple of days ago things started popping up long before they should, and investigation showed that in SOME entries, but not all, the string of characters which Life Balance uses to link had been erased on the iCal side. The event was still there, but the link was gone, so Life Balance couldn't see it. I suspect that this has something to do with MissingSync taking a veeeeeeeery long time to sync with iCal now, such that sometimes I've had to Force Quit MissingSync in order to leave the house. I've re-established the links by creating things anew from within Life Balance, but it's time-consuming, and I'm now leery of syncing with iCal. UPDATE: Syncing with iCal is taking hours, and often losing the connection. There is constant disk access, and performance goes into the gutter system-wide. And, the events in Life Balance which link to an iCal database entry keep losing the link, and I keep having to reconfigure, which is a pain and is rapidly diminishing the utility of Life Balance. Anyone have any ideas for how to fix this. Is this another issue which should be fixed in 5.1.2, and when will that be out? Is there anywhere I can download 5.1 and re-install. It was working fine for me. -Speireag.

I never used it before 5.1.1 so I don't know how good it was previously. However, everyone seemed to keep recommending it and although I had no issues with Palm's Hotsync I thought I'd be getting added value with Missing Sync. What I'm finding is little annoying problems. I too have also found that sometimes I get slow syncs (no idea why) and there are some things in the Missing sync conduit that it just doesn't make sense what its doing. I actually found sync'g with Hotsync much faster than Missing Sync. I'm hoping they fix some of these little annoying problems and make the product more robust. It really needs performance improvements and overall stability enhancement. I've actually been tempted just to return to Hotsync but I've put out all this money for Missing Sync I keep using it. I hope your problem is solved with the next release. ___ Kerry ...... Original Message .......

I did not understand the message from tech support posted by Kerry. I have a Sony UX50. Things sort of kind of worked until I installed 5.1.1. Now I cannot run a sync without the UX50 timing out. When I arrange things so that Address Book syncs before the time-out, I get the Email->other problem. So I need to wait for MS to fix the problem? Can I undo the "upgrade" to 5.1.1? I fear the conclusion is that syncing Mac with Palm OS is not ready for prime time, and if syncing your Palm with your PC is an important part of your setup, then Mac OS is not for you.:( Owen On Oct 3, 2006, at 13:56 , k.dawson@mac.com wrote: > Yes - I just found out today they are aware of it.

This is the first version of Missing Sync I've used and I'm finding it problematic. There is no problem with the Mac syncing with a Palm. Using Palm's Hotsync manager, it works great. I got Missing Sync in that so many people were recommending it for its value add capability - better field syncs, more flexibility etc. However, I am finding annoying problems and performance/stability issues. I really wasn't expecting this is what I'd be getting when I got the Missing Sync. If anything I thought it would perform better than Hotsync. But Hotsync is faster at doing a sync, a restore is reliable (I had a real disaster a while back when I did a restore from Missing Sync) and Hotsync just plain works. So I was really expecting more from the Missing Sync but I'm finding I'm fussing too much with its problems, which I never did with Hotsync. I am tempted to just switch back but I put out all this money on the product and I feel I should be able to use it and get some advantage from it. Don't though think for a minute thatt the Palm and the Mac don't sync well. They do. In fact, Palm has always been extremely Mac friendly and has for years been really the best solution for Mac users. If something like the PocketPC or a Blackberry would allow extensive and reliable sync'g I think I would choose one of these products over the Palm as the Palm has fallen behind over the last few years. ___ Kerry ......

As an example, my Motorola V3 Razr syncs fine with isync and is a supported phone. Kerry On Oct 4, 2006, at 5:32 AM, Gilly (lists) wrote: > I've just acquired one of these phones.

E-mail address's on current devices can either be Home/Work/Other/E-mail in Addressbook. It is best to choose E-mail label Home/Work for phone numbers they should turn up fine in the dialer. Those with an E-mail label should not affect the person's dialer. As an example, when I sync'd my contacts from Entourage to Addressbook, it created E-mail address's as either Home or Work E-mail address's. In Snappermail (a third party app for mail) it did not recognize these as E-mail address's. Once I changed it to either Other or E-mail it recognized these. However, you really want this to be E-mail. If you create it as label E-mail in Addressbook it comes across as Other. If you create it on the Palm as E-mail it comes into Addressbook as E-mail. As you can see, this starts to look real messy. Half the time I create my contacts in Addressbook and the other half the time I create them in the Palm. To make everything consistent, I have to go to the Palm and find those address's generated by Addressbook as Label Other and change them to E-mail on the Palm and they will sync back to Addressbook as label E-mail. This is too time consuming and potentially leads to inaccuracy. Kerry On Oct 3, 2006, at 9:24 AM, Brian M.
