I need to restore the calendar on my desktop for my secretary, who updates my calendar regularly of all my up coming court dates with my clients.. I need held this is very important to my company that this information be restored on her desktop

Hi suzbt:
JOY's answer, that you try to do a SYSTEM RESTORE on your Computer to get the data back is a really good one, that I did not think of! All manual instructions, and USER instructions on doing a SYNC with the Palm Z22, REPEAT : 1/ Always have a back up of the hard data 2/ Always check all transferred DATA on a SYNC, "Even if it states 'transfer Successful'", 3/ Even, if necessary, write down the data, ...
There are a few software programs to identify FILE problems on the Z22, listed on my web page:

http://kidbots.com/WEBADD/Z22_PALM_PILOT/Z22_PALM_PILOT.html

and ways to recover corrupt data, but these are getting more and more difficult to find and use...

User comments on the SYNC indicate that any SYNC is a risky procedure, and backups and re-checking all data is necessary at all times.

I hope that the information on my web site comes in useful in keeping the Palm Z22 up and running!

good luck

Z22 PALM PILOT

no its not possible to retrieve data backl

mmm.. press reset with the edge of your stylus and center joystick button together at the same time, for about 5 seconds. that action will erase all data and restore your device to factory settings.

Older palm products and vista aren't compatible. You either needs to transfer info via bluetooth or upgrade your palm if you wish to continue using vista.

Hi,

You can do a hard reset to completely restore all the data of your palm.But this will erase all your current settings and restore it to the factory default.Factory default is nothing but it restores the device to the settings when you purchased this one.Reply back to me and i'll tell you how to do a hard reset.

HI,

Please let me know the make and model no. so that i can help you fix this issue.

I will be waiting for your reply..

I went into the HotSync Manager and changed the settings to Desktop overwrites handheld. That did the trick!

Go up to the dropdown box of categories at the top left and select "Show All". The text should re-appear.

Check the hot sync manager to set the flow of info from desktop to device during the initial restoration of data to your Palm. Afterwards, once you have all your info restored, you'll want the device(s) and desktop calendar to update each other, so make sure your settings in the sync manager reflect that, otherwise you'll continue to have one schedule overwriting the other.

Hope that helps. Let me know how you make out.

Selct Desktop overwrite Handheld. You can change the way the synchronisation takes place for all applications, either from the palm desktop application or from the status icon in the taskmanager bar. There are different options: - Synchronize - Handheld overwrite desktop - Desktop overwrite handheld - Do Nothing If the PC is up-to-date and you want to use these data you should select the "Desktop overwrite Handheld". This will clear the handheld calender and replace with the data from the pc/desktop
