Re: Lombard OS9 hotsync to PalmV?
Thanks Guys, I did get the proper adapter 9 pin- USB from circuit city...it came with a driver ...and I don't know about the infrared option, I do see the area of infrared...it is like open to inside the Lombard are two little red lights...curious... what's this for and who uses these? ...my main problem now is the previous palm V owner has a password...and this is preventing my hotsync operation to go thru. I believe I can reset the palm's uh hard drive...wiping it clean by holding in the reset button but then I would be losing all his goodies too neh? Not that I really want all that he had...but I do want Maxilaris note 2.0 Which brings me to... what are great Palm software options...and what to avoid...i don't want to clutter up my nicely working Lombard witha bunch of unnecessary software.

Re: Lombard OS9 hotsync to PalmV?
IIRC, Lombards and Palm Vs can directly connect using IRDA (sort of an infrared serial port, the little dark red window at the left rear of the Lombard), so you shouldn't need any adapter. In Palm Desktop just select hotsynch via IRDA (?), and on the Palm (in Prefs:Connection) 'IR to PC/handheld'. Dang it I don't have an IRDA-equipped Mac handy with which to test . . . dan k . http://macdan.n3.net/ carracho://dankephoto.dhs.org:9700 hotline://dankephoto.dhs.org:9500 . -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
