How do I get the old address and name off of it the z22

Hi, erieser,
If your new ( used) Z22 has a name "missy", then it is NOT A "BLANK", as you state! You need to do a complete "factory Reset" After the COMPLETE factory reset, you then start the Z22 and name it Absolutely identical to your computer's Z22 name, and then try again to connect. I am surprised that fixya.com did not direct you to my 32 other Z22 answers, which cover your question. You can read about your answer and other tips and maintenance procedures at

Hello ariuz1953
Your solution is to simply Factory Reset the Z22, and put in your own new name and password. I have most answers to all Z22 questions. see:

The information support page for the Palm Z22 has moved around over the past few years. It is now at

http://kb.hpwebos.com/wps/portal/kb/na/zire/z22/unlocked/home/page_en.html

As well, I have an entire web page devoted just to maintaining, repairing, and using the Palm Z22, at:

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

As the Palm Z22 ages, there are issues with old and dying batteries, with the touch screen deforming and becoming useless, and various DATA connectivity issues, since the new Windows 64 BIT Operating Systems did not yet exist when the Z22 was diss-continued.

On my web page are links and USER information on the various solutions that they found, as well as a bit of information that I discovered, which is hitherto unknown!

Hope these tid-bits of help get your Palm Z22 up and running properly...

good luck

If you look through you can download software without the cd.

Hope it helps.

The data on your old Z22 is very likely very secure, and the touch screen problem is very common - there are a few tricks to get the touch screen working long enough to transfer the data.
I have a web page entirely for maintaining, repairing, and interfacing your Z22 at:
kidbots.com/WEBADD/Z22_PALM_PILOT/Z22_PALM_PILOT.html

You can try these tricks, or just replace the screen for $9 U.S., since the screen only needs you take the unit apart and flip open a connector lock ...

I would strongly advise getting a solid plastic cover over your new Z22, since this is the key to keeping the screen working...

hope the information is of help to you

good luck

Z22 PALM PILOT

I went to Best Buy and bought a Palm Tungsten E2. Download was easy, and I have all items from the old IIIxe on the new unit.

Please post your hotsync log.
Whats the name of the game (and .prc filename)?

1. Go to Applications (info).
2. Open the Menus (info).
3. From the App menu choose Delete.
4. Tap the name of the application you would like to delete.
5. Tap on the Delete button. Tap on the Yes button to confirm that you wish to delete the chosen application.

Delete programs from your Z22 by using your Z22 and not your computer

Just sync your zire with the existing desktop! Should work fine!

clean the touch screen and go under the edges w/ a bankcard to remove any dirt.
then do a hard reset -- worked for my z22
