Did your 755 not come with an installation disc? Make sure your "ID" is the EXACT same as the 650 was, or the desktop software will not recognize you.

yes i installed everything, it recognizes it i just dont know how to put the contacts onto my 755

I'm going from memory, but there is a setting that determines whether desktop overrules handheld, or you can set it where handheld overrules desktop. Is it wiping the contacts out of your 755 when you sync? The Palm website also has a very extensive FAQ section that should cover it as well.

right you just go into the Hotsync button on desktop and click Custom - there is where you would check for desktop to overwrite device; then just do a hotsync and it will put everything back on.
