Is missing sync any good? I have an O2 XDA mini... I've yet to have missing-sync work properly for me due to the numerous bugs (repeating calendar entries getting shifted a day at each sync, timezones not being taken into account, ). Still, I guess that's one up from Pocket Mac which wouldn't even see my iPaq. There was mention of a 'major update ... very soon' back in November. I really hope that'll solve these issues, 'cos I'm beginning to miss my Treo (which although it had its bugs, it did at least sync reliably).

Message-ID: <6067B240.668A4261.007A6775@cs.com> Let's hope the update appears soon, I'm currently forced to use PocketMac as I use Entourage not iCal (ex PC user). I understand this new version may have the long promised Entourage support. Never had any connection issues after the first few betas excepting an iPaq issue caused by bad iPaq USB connection. By the way both PocketMac and Missing Sync have issues and there similar - issues with repeating entries which are not full day. PocketMac also prevents the use on PPC with Virtual PC (loads USB support on boot) so cab files for installation (never got thier install utility to work)are a necessity whereas Missing Sync allows this (but its difficult to setup).

The registry is a central point of failure for Windows. Typically it fills up with cruft and detritus from programs that you don't have any more, whose uninstallers didn't remove everything. And although the registry most definitely wasn't intended to be a database, a lot of developers apparently think it is. Since virtually everything in Windows uses the registry, crap left over from that utility you removed last year contributes to slowing down the system even today! You could of course try a third party registry cleaner, or go in yourself with RegEdit. Personally, I'd rather French-kiss a rhino. Ahem. On OS X, there are three or four locations where an application might install things. Let's take the Palm desktop as an example: 1. The actual applications, like Palm Desktop and Hotsync Manager, will be installed in the Applications folder at the root of the hard disk. 2. Documents created by the application, like your Palm backup files, will be in a folder called "Palm" in the Documents folder at the root of the hard disk. 3. Preference files-- which under OS X are plain-text XML files-- are kept in one of two places: the Preferences folder inside the Library folder at the root of the hard disk, or the Preferences folder inside the Library folder inside your home directory. Which is up to the developer. Palm uses your "local" Preferences folder, while Mark/Space puts at least one item in the root Preferences folder. Some applications install drivers or kernel extensions. A common place for these is in /Library/StartupItems-- Mark/Space puts their USB drivers there. Keeping separate preference files in named folders in a central location is way better than a central registry. The idea behind the registry was that programs could query the system to see what other things were installed. It's a good idea, but typically programs only need to know about earlier versions of themselves or perhaps a couple of other related programs. With named preference files in a known location, it's just as easy to know where to look-- and the system doesn't slow down as you accumulate preferences, because all those other folder don't slow down accesses to the stuff you do need to get to. -- David Ramsey On Jan 4, 2005, at 1:58 PM, Joaquin Menchaca wrote: > Hi, > > I have been very busy myself in setting up vpn > site-to-site network configurations and general > managing of IT infrastructure at client sites heavily > based in Windows environment. > > I recently got a Power Mac G5 to test and play with > MissingSync, but I am scared to proceed... > > Unlike Windows, which has a registry for > configurations, there are several places where things > are configured on the Macintosh.

The 1.0.4 version of MissingSync for Pocket PC requires that users have administrator privileges. This is something we are looking into fixing for a future version of MissingSync.

I suspect the Mac OS X account you are using is not an administrator. The 1.0.4 version of MissingSync for Pocket PC requires that you be an administrator. Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.

Here is the latest one. I have a 256 MB SD memory card for my PocketPC. I filled it with as many songs as it could take from a windows laptop that had a SD slot. I tried to copy the entire directory after mounting my PocketPC on my mac. It copied only the initial 100MB songs and hung up on me. I disconnected it and tried again but it wouldn't copy the remaining songs. I connected my pocketpc to the Virtual PC and tried to copy the songs there. It would copy them but in a compressed form which is really use less. I also tried to copy one file at a time from my pocketpc to mac, it wouldn't copy the files after copying certain number of files, which I believe is pretty random. Can any one explain this behavior? I strongly believe missing-sync for pocket pc is a very promising software. In the latest version, I hope the syncing my contacts and calendar is faster. I wrote couple of apple scripts that would convert ical and address book entries into text files which I could import into my outlook on my Virtual PC and connect my pocket pc to it. I found that it's faster that way. So, I really hope that the next version has a faster way of syncing my PIM.

At trade shows we always show both devices connected to the same Mac. Here are a couple of things to be aware of: 1) The Missing Sync for Palm OS 4.0.3 (currently in Beta, but shipping soon) has a new iPhoto plugin called "Palm Export." So you will have two iPhoto plugins. The Pocket PC plugin is still called "Missing Sync." 2) If you are syncing both the Pocket PC and Palm OS device to iCal and Address Book, you have the potential of making changes to the same record in three places. Not to worry, the iSync conflict resolution will catch this and present a nice dialog asking which record you want to keep. I would not try to synchronize both devices at the same time. Enjoy!

Is missing sync any good? I have an O2 XDA mini... I've yet to have missing-sync work properly for me due to the numerous bugs (repeating calendar entries getting shifted a day at each sync, timezones not being taken into account, ). Still, I guess that's one up from Pocket Mac which wouldn't even see my iPaq. There was mention of a 'major update ... very soon' back in November. I really hope that'll solve these issues, 'cos I'm beginning to miss my Treo (which although it had its bugs, it did at least sync reliably).

Message-ID: <6067B240.668A4261.007A6775@cs.com> Let's hope the update appears soon, I'm currently forced to use PocketMac as I use Entourage not iCal (ex PC user). I understand this new version may have the long promised Entourage support. Never had any connection issues after the first few betas excepting an iPaq issue caused by bad iPaq USB connection. By the way both PocketMac and Missing Sync have issues and there similar - issues with repeating entries which are not full day. PocketMac also prevents the use on PPC with Virtual PC (loads USB support on boot) so cab files for installation (never got thier install utility to work)are a necessity whereas Missing Sync allows this (but its difficult to setup).

The registry is a central point of failure for Windows. Typically it fills up with cruft and detritus from programs that you don't have any more, whose uninstallers didn't remove everything. And although the registry most definitely wasn't intended to be a database, a lot of developers apparently think it is. Since virtually everything in Windows uses the registry, crap left over from that utility you removed last year contributes to slowing down the system even today! You could of course try a third party registry cleaner, or go in yourself with RegEdit. Personally, I'd rather French-kiss a rhino. Ahem. On OS X, there are three or four locations where an application might install things. Let's take the Palm desktop as an example: 1. The actual applications, like Palm Desktop and Hotsync Manager, will be installed in the Applications folder at the root of the hard disk. 2. Documents created by the application, like your Palm backup files, will be in a folder called "Palm" in the Documents folder at the root of the hard disk. 3. Preference files-- which under OS X are plain-text XML files-- are kept in one of two places: the Preferences folder inside the Library folder at the root of the hard disk, or the Preferences folder inside the Library folder inside your home directory. Which is up to the developer. Palm uses your "local" Preferences folder, while Mark/Space puts at least one item in the root Preferences folder. Some applications install drivers or kernel extensions. A common place for these is in /Library/StartupItems-- Mark/Space puts their USB drivers there. Keeping separate preference files in named folders in a central location is way better than a central registry. The idea behind the registry was that programs could query the system to see what other things were installed. It's a good idea, but typically programs only need to know about earlier versions of themselves or perhaps a couple of other related programs. With named preference files in a known location, it's just as easy to know where to look-- and the system doesn't slow down as you accumulate preferences, because all those other folder don't slow down accesses to the stuff you do need to get to. -- David Ramsey On Jan 4, 2005, at 1:58 PM, Joaquin Menchaca wrote: > Hi, > > I have been very busy myself in setting up vpn > site-to-site network configurations and general > managing of IT infrastructure at client sites heavily > based in Windows environment. > > I recently got a Power Mac G5 to test and play with > MissingSync, but I am scared to proceed... > > Unlike Windows, which has a registry for > configurations, there are several places where things > are configured on the Macintosh.

The 1.0.4 version of MissingSync for Pocket PC requires that users have administrator privileges. This is something we are looking into fixing for a future version of MissingSync.

I suspect the Mac OS X account you are using is not an administrator. The 1.0.4 version of MissingSync for Pocket PC requires that you be an administrator. Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.

Here is the latest one. I have a 256 MB SD memory card for my PocketPC. I filled it with as many songs as it could take from a windows laptop that had a SD slot. I tried to copy the entire directory after mounting my PocketPC on my mac. It copied only the initial 100MB songs and hung up on me. I disconnected it and tried again but it wouldn't copy the remaining songs. I connected my pocketpc to the Virtual PC and tried to copy the songs there. It would copy them but in a compressed form which is really use less. I also tried to copy one file at a time from my pocketpc to mac, it wouldn't copy the files after copying certain number of files, which I believe is pretty random. Can any one explain this behavior? I strongly believe missing-sync for pocket pc is a very promising software. In the latest version, I hope the syncing my contacts and calendar is faster. I wrote couple of apple scripts that would convert ical and address book entries into text files which I could import into my outlook on my Virtual PC and connect my pocket pc to it. I found that it's faster that way. So, I really hope that the next version has a faster way of syncing my PIM.

At trade shows we always show both devices connected to the same Mac. Here are a couple of things to be aware of: 1) The Missing Sync for Palm OS 4.0.3 (currently in Beta, but shipping soon) has a new iPhoto plugin called "Palm Export." So you will have two iPhoto plugins. The Pocket PC plugin is still called "Missing Sync." 2) If you are syncing both the Pocket PC and Palm OS device to iCal and Address Book, you have the potential of making changes to the same record in three places. Not to worry, the iSync conflict resolution will catch this and present a nice dialog asking which record you want to keep. I would not try to synchronize both devices at the same time. Enjoy!

Is missing sync any good? I have an O2 XDA mini... I've yet to have missing-sync work properly for me due to the numerous bugs (repeating calendar entries getting shifted a day at each sync, timezones not being taken into account, ). Still, I guess that's one up from Pocket Mac which wouldn't even see my iPaq. There was mention of a 'major update ... very soon' back in November. I really hope that'll solve these issues, 'cos I'm beginning to miss my Treo (which although it had its bugs, it did at least sync reliably).

Message-ID: <6067B240.668A4261.007A6775@cs.com> Let's hope the update appears soon, I'm currently forced to use PocketMac as I use Entourage not iCal (ex PC user). I understand this new version may have the long promised Entourage support. Never had any connection issues after the first few betas excepting an iPaq issue caused by bad iPaq USB connection. By the way both PocketMac and Missing Sync have issues and there similar - issues with repeating entries which are not full day. PocketMac also prevents the use on PPC with Virtual PC (loads USB support on boot) so cab files for installation (never got thier install utility to work)are a necessity whereas Missing Sync allows this (but its difficult to setup).

The registry is a central point of failure for Windows. Typically it fills up with cruft and detritus from programs that you don't have any more, whose uninstallers didn't remove everything. And although the registry most definitely wasn't intended to be a database, a lot of developers apparently think it is. Since virtually everything in Windows uses the registry, crap left over from that utility you removed last year contributes to slowing down the system even today! You could of course try a third party registry cleaner, or go in yourself with RegEdit. Personally, I'd rather French-kiss a rhino. Ahem. On OS X, there are three or four locations where an application might install things. Let's take the Palm desktop as an example: 1. The actual applications, like Palm Desktop and Hotsync Manager, will be installed in the Applications folder at the root of the hard disk. 2. Documents created by the application, like your Palm backup files, will be in a folder called "Palm" in the Documents folder at the root of the hard disk. 3. Preference files-- which under OS X are plain-text XML files-- are kept in one of two places: the Preferences folder inside the Library folder at the root of the hard disk, or the Preferences folder inside the Library folder inside your home directory. Which is up to the developer. Palm uses your "local" Preferences folder, while Mark/Space puts at least one item in the root Preferences folder. Some applications install drivers or kernel extensions. A common place for these is in /Library/StartupItems-- Mark/Space puts their USB drivers there. Keeping separate preference files in named folders in a central location is way better than a central registry. The idea behind the registry was that programs could query the system to see what other things were installed. It's a good idea, but typically programs only need to know about earlier versions of themselves or perhaps a couple of other related programs. With named preference files in a known location, it's just as easy to know where to look-- and the system doesn't slow down as you accumulate preferences, because all those other folder don't slow down accesses to the stuff you do need to get to. -- David Ramsey On Jan 4, 2005, at 1:58 PM, Joaquin Menchaca wrote: > Hi, > > I have been very busy myself in setting up vpn > site-to-site network configurations and general > managing of IT infrastructure at client sites heavily > based in Windows environment. > > I recently got a Power Mac G5 to test and play with > MissingSync, but I am scared to proceed... > > Unlike Windows, which has a registry for > configurations, there are several places where things > are configured on the Macintosh.

The 1.0.4 version of MissingSync for Pocket PC requires that users have administrator privileges. This is something we are looking into fixing for a future version of MissingSync.

I suspect the Mac OS X account you are using is not an administrator. The 1.0.4 version of MissingSync for Pocket PC requires that you be an administrator. Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.

Here is the latest one. I have a 256 MB SD memory card for my PocketPC. I filled it with as many songs as it could take from a windows laptop that had a SD slot. I tried to copy the entire directory after mounting my PocketPC on my mac. It copied only the initial 100MB songs and hung up on me. I disconnected it and tried again but it wouldn't copy the remaining songs. I connected my pocketpc to the Virtual PC and tried to copy the songs there. It would copy them but in a compressed form which is really use less. I also tried to copy one file at a time from my pocketpc to mac, it wouldn't copy the files after copying certain number of files, which I believe is pretty random. Can any one explain this behavior? I strongly believe missing-sync for pocket pc is a very promising software. In the latest version, I hope the syncing my contacts and calendar is faster. I wrote couple of apple scripts that would convert ical and address book entries into text files which I could import into my outlook on my Virtual PC and connect my pocket pc to it. I found that it's faster that way. So, I really hope that the next version has a faster way of syncing my PIM. Thank you, Hemantha On Fri, 14 Jan 2005 04:41:37 -0600, Adam Barrow
