RE: Die Hard Palm Tungston E2 / DateBk6 / Palm Desktop 6.2 user & Need a new Computer

Hi Deb, 

 Greetings from the Stone Age!  I currently sync between the iPhone's resident calendar app. and Google Calendar, but my plan for the new year is to resume calendaring on my Treo 755p with DateBk6.
 

 Yes, Palm Desktop 6.2 and DateBk6  ***WILL***  still run on a Windows 7 PC.  You simply download something called "the 64-bit driver" (whatever that means) from a New Zealand company called Aceeca at this link (and CESD has the link if this fails for whatever reason): http://aceeca.com/index.php?option=com_maqmahelpdesk&Itemid=5&id_workgroup=1&task=downloads_product&id=6 http://aceeca.com/index.php?option=com_maqmahelpdesk&Itemid=5&id_workgroup=1&task=downloads_product&id=6
 

 The act of installing this "driver" will permit you to do a normal/USB HotSync between your Palm OS device and the Palm Desktop software on your Windows 7 PC.
 

 I applaud you that you went ahead and tried Pimlical Android and I understand about not feeling savvy enough to work through it.  That was my experience with Pimlical Desktop; I love full features and customizable complexity, but I could not figure out how to get going with Pimlical Desktop.  There is something to be said for embracing the self-awareness that there are some things--even calendar things--that are simply beyond us.  
 

 One thing that might persuade you to retry Pimlical Android, however, is that the Palm OS calendar EXPIRES in only 18 years (on December 31, 2031).
 

 Good luck with the entire process, and let us know how it all goes!
 

 

 Best,
