I think the problem started when I started using iSync to sync with Mac Address Book and iCal.
Still lovin' my Treo/Mac combo, nice to have addresses and calendar (previously separate in cellphone, palmpilot and computer) all synched in one place. And, never fear, my cable sync still works, so and for me, but ain't that like life itself.

I am having nearly the same set of symptoms as you! An intermittent start - I was syncing fine using BT and Mac 10.4.3 for several months. I can't remember; all of my problems may have started when I upgraded to 10.4.4 but I am not sure. Anyway I could not sync one night, and so I fiddle around a bit and got it to work. A couple more off/on success/failures... and now I cannot sync at all (except with the cable). I tried a hard reset and even upgrading the software to 1.04-VZW. I use other BT functions on the phone and so I know it is working. I get the same error message "port in use..." whether the computer is on or not. Sigh. Someone??
