I recently bought a Palm M-500 handheld (new) to replace my older Palm
M-150. It came bundled with Aceeca software.

I have followed all their instructions to the letter, at least two
dozen times now, but I can't get the handheld to HotSync with my PC,
which has a 64-bit Windows 7 OS.

I did get it to work (accidentally) for about a week using the Windows
installer with a real Palm driver, but that has stopped and I can't
get it to work again.

I opened a ticket with Aceeca for help, but they replied:
"Unfortunately we are unable to provide support for non-Aceeca
customers. Please note that the 64bit driver was written by us with
the sole intention for use with Aceeca manufactured handhelds. Whilst
many non-Aceeca handheld owners have had success using our driver, we
cannot guarantee in any way it will work for all Palm devices and
users. All I can suggest is that you try some of the many Palm forums
for help."

So I can't get any help from them. Does anyone know of a Palm forum?

I've downloaded and tried the hotsync program put out by Pimlico
(http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/palmhotsyncsetup.exe) but that doesn't
seem to do anything.

Is there any way I can get my M-500 to hotsync with Windows 7? I would
appreciate any help. Thank you.
