MacGroup: iSync

Nelson, to expand a little on that : I also have this option to have either the computer overwrite the palm, or vice versa, however, I wonder if that only goes for hotsync. I have mine set on isync, and then those other options are set automatically, like for note pad and photo the palm overwri

Thanks, Alex, for all your info.I had the things which I thought important in the drop down menu checked. However,I can't understand what " force slow synchronization" means . Marta On Feb 12, 2004, at 18:09, Alex W. wrote: > > On Feb 11, 2004, at 10:07 PM, Marta Edie wrote: > >> thought that

Thanks, Alex, I answered before I got this new message. This sounds more plausible to me. I haven't had a sync warning, but thought that somehow there would be confusion if you waited too long or if you had too many deletions or additions. I thought that perhaps in that case the main computer

No, Alex, it isn't as easy as that. If I delete something, and don't sync right away, then three computers and a couple of palms still have the address on them . When I then the next day or a week later, do some other moves and than sync again, will the brain in the computer still remember tha

Sorry, I missed half the question. If you delete an event from any computer or device, it will be deleted from all the others when you synchronize, no matter which one you use to start the sync. Alex On Feb 11, 2004, at 7:07 PM, Marta Edie wrote: > When I iSync, which is the overriding comput

MacGroup: iSync

Marta, In general, the newest information wins. If I create an event on my Palm (for example, dentist 2:00 Tuesday) and then sync with the iMac and .mac, the event will appear on all calendars. If the dentist later calls me and says 2:30 is better, and I make that change in iCal on the iMac, a

MacGroup: iSync

Can somebody enlighten me : When I iSync, which is the overriding computer, or is there such a thing? If I delete an address in one computer, will it be deleted in all the other computers and in .mac, or will it be restored, if I should start syncing from a different computer which still has th

Just forgot to add that the hotsync-iSinc integration works fine with one device, it gives me trouble only when I try to add a second, albeit the very same model, to the machine. Marta | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be February 24. The LCS Web page is

Thanks, Nelson for your input into this. I am saving your suggestions . Panther was just installed on my machine and I have to reinstall the Palm saoftware, since it is not taken over in the process. After that I shall take the necessary steps to get both handhelds to work in iSync via hot-sync

Thanks, Alex, this was my conclusion , too. I think I sync one on my iMac and the other with my PB. Thus far I have been doing well with beaming the entries from my Zire 71 to my husband's.This works ok,we don't have many appts other than doctors' and lunches, yet, I am always trying to enlarg

I'm running OS 9.2.2, not OS X, and I'm using Palm HotSync software, not iSync, but consider: 1. create two user names. For each name, the HotSync software will create a [username] folder in the Users folder. In each [username] folder it will create files named "User Data" and "User Data Archiv

Thanks, Harry, for your input. I had thought the same thing, that's why I used the same user name and thought i could sync into the two devices without trouble, in fact, i had been advised by palm to do just that last year when my husband had the plain Zire. It worked there, except that I had

Marta, Sorry to be late with this. I have a handspring visor which I sync with palm desktop on my ibook. I don't have two handhelds but it seems to me if you give both of them the same name and the name is the same as the name on the desktop software, that palm desktop wouldn't know the differenc

I appeal to the palm users among the group.( Palm support was a disaster.-) I have two Palm Zires 71. Identical. I also have two computers with airport and a .mac account. The synchronizing with my old zire goes just fine. Now until recently I (my husband) also had a regular zire ( without the
