Windows XP, Palm m130, & Outlook 2003 - Sync problem

windows 7 is new and not compatible with many software so you may not get to sync your palm Z22 by using windows 7. You need a model that is compatible with windows 7.

You can sync to Outlook on the PC and then get the Outlook data onto the iTouch. If you have a newer PDA, It's install CD has a Sync options menu item where you can switch between Palm Desktop and Outlook. If you no longer have the original install CD or have an older device Pocket, Copy from Chapura.com It will move the Palm Desktop records to Outlook.

my palmm130 fails to sync the addresses with recently fitted windows 2007

Don't skip the initial HotSync for secondary computer! Alright, I figured this one out on my own and figured I'd post what I'd learned so that others don't have to endure the teeth mashing, hair pulling, snarling frustration. (self induced as it may be) My experiences have taught me to not always trust a cookie cutter installation wizard...especially for custom app installations (ie: primary = home, secondary=work, total sync, no priority). So, I did not perform the initial sync during installation of the palm software fearing that the new installation would NOT recognize that the work computer was a secondary machine and resultantly wipe out the old palm data from the primary machine. Turns out, as I saw in many other unrelated posts, that it's difficult (if not impossible) to specify conduit direction to outlook 2003 outside of the initial sync (this prompted me to specifically look for conduit direction during install). So, this wizard is one I should have trusted...by mistake...because of weak program design. By the way...once I specified sync with outlook during the initial sync, EVERYTHING works fine despite not having installed the two "imperative" conduit updates (they were uninstalled after several previous failed attempts at this). Hope this helps

1) Only one username to use. 2) Not sure about this one. It was working fine exactly as I have it setup now. The only thing that changed is I reinstalled the software, did a hard reset and setup a profile.

yes I moved my files to a new machine and reinstalled palm (which of course also created the dreaded multiple copies of many palm contacts, when palm discovered older archives, but that is another story!) I wouldn't mind that if the palm pilot would just sync with outlook 2003. It synched with Outlook 2000 on my old machine.

Download the Outlook Security Add-in from this site: http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/security Advanced Security for Outlook is free for commercial and non-commercial use. I have testet it with Windows XP and Outlook 2002 SP3 syncing with a Palm Zire 31 and it works fine.

Hi, connect your wife's palm to the pc , click on start , go into all programs , browse for palm desktop and inside palm desktop you would see mail setup click on that .... Regards

Create a new Sync profile and check it again

You never mentioned your drivers, they could be out of whack. Try updating them or get a Microsoft compatible driver. Check the device manager for problems.
