Solution
I cannot perform a HotSync 
operation. What should I check 
to make sure I’m doing it 
correctly?
■
Make sure the HotSync cradle/cable is connected securely.
On a Windows computer try these steps:
1.
Check the Windows system tray to make sure the HotSync 
Manager is running. If it is not, click Start on the Windows 
taskbar, and then select Programs. Navigate to the Palm 
Desktop software program group, and select HotSync 
Manager. You should also see
for instructions on selecting the
correct HotSync Manager settings.
2.
Make sure you selected Local USB or Local Serial, as 
appropriate, from the HotSync Manager menu.
3.
If you are using the serial cradle make sure you selected the 
correct serial port on the Local tab in the Setup dialog box. 
It should be set to the port where you connected the 
HotSync cradle/cable.
On a Mac computer try these steps:
1.
Make sure HotSync Manager is enabled. If it is not, 
double-click the HotSync Manager icon 
in the Palm
folder and enable HotSync Manager on the HotSync 
Controls tab.
2.
Disconnect the cradle/cable from your computer, and then 
reconnect the cradle/cable and restart your computer.
I did a HotSync operation, but

On a Mac computer, double-click the HotSync Manager 
icon

Select your username from the User pop-up menu, and be 
sure that the correct conduit is active. 
I am using Outlook as my PIM,

operation.

Click the HotSync Manager and select Custom. Be sure that 
the correct conduit is active.

Be sure that the correct conduit is installed. Reinstall the 
HotSync Manager and make sure that the correct conduit is 
selected.
