Therein lies my problem...I can't get the cd to install at all. I went into the properties and picked XP compatibility mode and it still won't run the cd. Anything for this??

Hello.

From FixYa Support:

Run the program in XP compatibility mode.

First install the Palm Desktop CD that came with the CLIE. Go to "Start"> All Programs> Sony Handheld

1. Right click "HotSync Manager" and click "Properties" click Compatibility tab and and check "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP (Service Pack 2).

2. Then HotSync your CLIE it should work.

If it doesn't work:

1. While installing software from the CD open the CD and Right-click setup.exe and check XP Compatibility, and while installing, if a pop-up appears for drivers, just Click Use Old Drivers anyway.

2. In "Start"> All Programs> Sony Handheld
Rightclick all the shortcuts like "Palm desktop for Clie", "Install tool", "Hotsync manager" and set it to run in XP compatibility mode.

Hope this helps.

Hotsync Problem with Sony Clie PEG-T615C using XP SP3

Maybe you could also try updating Palm Desktop or maybe downgrading Palm Desktop because I have that exact same PDA and I know it's old. If neither of those work, just pull a system restore or whatever you had planned.

Hotsync between vista and clie t615c

I could not sync my new Dell XPS with my t615c clie. Same error about not finding the com port.
I tried the solution about Xp compatability.. and still did not work.
I thought I would have to keep my XP PC and sync to there. But then my XP Pc did not sync either.
I did a soft reset from the hole in the back of T615C and then I could sync to the XP PC.
Then I thought maybe.. just maybe if the reset worked, I could sync to the Vista PC. YEAH!!!!!!.
It might have been a combination of making the check mark with the XP compatablity.. or just the reset button. But I am a happy camper now.
Life is simply sometimes...... IF YOU WORK AT IT!

Sony Clie PEG-T615C Hotsync doesn't work with my Windows Vista Home Edition

I must maintain my older XP system just to maintain my pda. Awkward, for sure. I have not contacted Sony yet.

I once discarded a very nice, functioning rinter by Canon because there was no driver for XP.

Ouch!

CD and Vista

I suggest you create a dual boot situation with your computer, so it will run either XP or Vista. Most computer books will tell you how to set this up (not difficult). As for the software installation CD--check Ebay. People sell them often, whether originals or copies.
