View Full Version : Curious Hotsync Error

I just moved to a new PC, with the Vista Business OS. After installing the latest Palm Desktop, I was able hotsync my TX via USB cable.

But now, when I try the sync I get a "Yellow Triangle" message: "Create a new account on this PC?"

Regardless what I answer, the hotsync terminates, and I seem to temporarily loose my Palm username on the PC (I can't view the hotsync log; can't set up a "custom" sync). The username is restored after a reboot.

I have no idea what I have changed, unless it was an attempt to set up a WiFi hotsync (which, BTW, generates the same error message).

I've tried a soft reset on the Palm.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Steve

Steve,

I am sorry you are having trouble with the Palm and new pc. I have been syncing my TX with my new Vaio with Vista Business for two weeks and have no problems. Vista is fragile. I wish I could be more help.

Did you install the Outlook conduits? I have not done that.

I couldn't agree more about Vista. I wish I could have waited 2 or 3 months for MS to publish a service pack or two. I'm not sure Vista is ready for prime time.

Yep. I installed the Outlook conduits.

Hi,

Not sure if you saw this on Palm’s site or not, but this link might help you solve the issue you are having with Vista, Windows VistaTM Information (http://www.palm.com/us/support/windowsvista/index.html).

Thanks for the tips. I've "escalated" my thread to a full-blown rant in the 1Src "General" forum:
