RE: Moving to a new computer - Datebook db issues

Mary-Jeanine

 

Just an FYI - you can successfully sync between a Palm OS device and
Windows 7 64 bits.  The USB sync does not work, but a Bluetooth
connection will.  

 

Two issues to contend with - 1) you have to jump through some hoops to
set up virtual 'Comm Ports' for the Bluetooth, then that selection will
become available in the Hotsync Manager.  2) Although the normal Syncing
works well and at about the same speed as you're used to, the 'Backup'
function is quite slow.   I never actually used those backup files
(there are other ways to save your data), so I just turned off the
Backup Conduit.

 

After using it awhile, I began to prefer the Bluetooth method, since the
device (Treo 680) doesn't need to be physically connected.

 

Have just moved to the Palm Pre Plus, so am on a different learning
curve now.
