The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Palm Treo can't sync anymore!

Asked by Frosty555 in Palm OS Handheld Operating System, Palm OS Programming, Handhelds and PDAs

Tags: , ,

I have a Palm Treo 600 that I synchronize with the Palm Hotsync Manager.

I recently installed two applications which affect hotsyncing:
    Adobe Reader for Palm (the latest version to date)
    Versamail 3.5

Versamail messed up my treo pretty bad, an infinite reboot cycle. I hard resetted, deleted as many databases as I could identify as versamail related (there were a lot), and attempted to uninstall it from my pc, which proved to be difficult, had to boot into safe mode, and it left the start menu folder behind >_O.

Later on I uninstalled Adobe Reader from my pc, and removed it from the treo.

Now when I hotsync, this happens:

        - Hotsync starts
        - Hotsync manager on PC wakes up and connects
        - Treo goes to "identifying user" stage
        - Treo immediately goes to "cleaning up" stage
        - Treo finishes and gives error message: "Hotsync operation was interrupted. Some of your data was NOT backed up. For details, tap Hotsync Log on the HotSync screen".

The hotsync log on the Treo reads:

"HotSync operation was terminated. Some of your data was NOT backed up. An Application on the PC failed to respond to a confirmation query. This appliation may need to be restarted".

Also, in Palm Desktop (although I don't use it), if I go to the HotSync menu and look at the log, it says:

"HotSync operation started 01/10/08 01:34:27
HotSync Error:
An application failed to respond to a
HotSync notification. Please check the Palm Desktop for details.  (8009)
HotSync operation complete 01/10/08 01:34:27"

There's also a menu item called "File Link" in the Hotsync Menu on Palm Desktop. When I click it, it says

"An Application on the PC failed to respond to a confirmation query. This application may need to be restarted".



Does anyone know what the heck I can do to undo the damage and get my treo to hotsync properly again?Start Free Trial
