My treo 650"s just plain freaking out

I recently ran out of room for pictures on my phone due to a vacation and wanted to upload them onto my laptop to have more space back on my phone. when i hooked it up to the special usb cord that goes into the computer, i pushed the cord's button that let's the computer read it.
after this happened, (which was last night) my phone now cannot get past the palm on loading screen and the palm powered screen. it just turns onto those and turns off. i tried resetting it the whole night by taking out my battery but that did no good.
i'm really frusterated and have no idea what to do.
any tip or bit of help, information even, would be great.
thanks.

I have a TREO650 and ran into a somewhat similar issue before. What you did by removing the battery was called a soft reset. There are 4 types of resets; soft, warm, hard and zero-out (personally I would not try this one just because it is difficult to do and it may make things worse in some rare instances).

Here is a website that describes the 4 types of reset and how to do them. http://mytreo.net/treofaq/Treo650Resetting

If the pictures to you aren't as important as getting your TREO working, I would suggest doing a HARD RESET.

As a suggestion for next time. Take your pictures and then transfer them to a 1GB SD card (the TREO 650 cannot accept any size larger than 1GB) and remove the SD card. Use a SD card reader in your PC to extract the pictures.

Good luck.

Installing the memory card in my Treo 650 cell phone

there's a card slot on top of the device - see pic attached (which shows both - SIM card and memory card slot opened). To open it press down and release dummy card, thenn pull it out and put SD card into slot (pushing it slightly deeper)5deba98.jpg

You can back up your Treo to either your PC or your SD
card. If you back up to your PC via hotsync, then there is a nice freeware which
can be installed to your Treo that is called SyncAll (all one has to do is right
before the sync, open the program and click "force all to sync"), and it will move
all the files, including preferences and such that don't normally get sync'd. If
you backup to your SD card, there are numerous programs for accomplishing this. It
is important that the number of backup-to-SD programs are limited for the Treo 650
due the NVFS file system. You can try THIS ONE for example - it's free.
