| Cannot hotsync 700p anymore??? I cannot hotsync my 700p anymore using Windows XP. It used to work and I don't remember changing any settings.
When I attach my palm to the usb cable and push the hotsync button, the palm goes to the hotsync screen indicating the last hotsync date. Nothing I do will make it hotsync.... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks. |

| How many people use this computer? This happens at work occasionally and it's due to someone renaming a profile. Even though the software is installed it won't sync.
I would reinstall the Palm Desktop software, making sure the conduits are back in place. If you right-click the HotSync icon in the system tray is USB listed? Is it checked? Or does it only have Network, Serial, Modem, etc.?
On the device, is Cable/Cradle selected as the method of syncing? |

First, try initiating the sync from the Treo, rather than the button on the cable. Is borrowing a cable an option? Is a bluetooth sync an option for you? They could also help isolate a faulty cable.

| Also make sure the conduits are properly set. One set to do nothing = nothing done.

| I've been having problems syncing with my Treo 700p too. I had it set up to sync via Bluetooth with my Mac Mini, and it worked the first few times. Now it refuses to connect, saying something like "the port is in use by another application". But I can't think of anything that's using it?? |

| The problem with Bluetooth is that occasionally the port gets changed from a functioning port to a nonfunctioning port. Ensure the ports are correctly set and see what happens - it may take some playing. My setup uses Com4 for Bluetooth and Com3 for modem. Ben
