[missing-sync-palmos-talk] 5.1.1 contacts

[kibalapa at netscape.net]

I have PowerBook G4 running OS X 10.4.7 and Treo 700p. M/S 5.1.0 seemed to work O.K. with M/S conduits but not with Pocket Quicken, SplashID, SplashPhoto, and Documents to Go. I say seemed because I removed M/S, and I do not recall whether the categories worked transferred O.K. I worked with Mark/Space and Landware and with a beta product I got Pocket Quicken, SplashID, and SplashPhoto working. Unfortunately the beta version did scramble categories in Events and Tasks. I do not know about DTXG but I will be trying the new 5.1.1 version this weekend.
 
The weird thing with 5.1.0 was that it appeared to try to install twice during each sync. And during the second install all DTXG files were getting reinstalled. The visible sign of trouble was scrambled DTXG categories in the desktop application.
 
Hope this helps.

I upgraded this morning from 5.1.0 to 5.5.1, and tried to sync. The new Mark/Space Contacts conduit failed repeatedly with: 
 
There was an error starting a synchronization session. This conduit has been unregistered, and the next time you synchronize you will be prompted to synchronize. If that does not happen, try restarting and synchronize again. 
SyncClient error. Can't initialize sync session. 
OK Mark/Space Contacts with 2 message(s) 
 
("OK" after "Can't initialize sync session"? Hmm. ;-) ) Interestingly, turning on M/S debug logging doesn't provide any additional information, although I didn't try full packet logging as it doesn't seem relevant for this. 
 
In uninstalled and re-installed 5.1.0, and the older conduit is still working fine for me. I may try re-re-installing 5.1.1 and doing some more experimentation, but I'll probably wait to see if I get a response from my tech support entry. 
 
For what it's worth, G5 with 10.4.7; Treo 700p. I did notice in the release notes that some new features were specifically targeted to me (well, OK, to my 700p anyway), which makes me wonder but certainly isn't conclusive. 
 
Anyone with a 700p and 5.5.1 who HASN'T had trouble? Anyone who HAS? Any ideas for solutions or triage?
