Ever since installing Tiger on my Powerbook G4 I have had major problems syncing my Treo 650.

When I go to hotsync the application opens and never opens iSync automatically like it used to.

If I run iSync on its own a message comes up saying to hotsync the Treo - then they start working together, they sync the contacts and when they get almost all the way throught the calendar - the whole thing just stops.

Everything else in syncing fine.

I have tried deleting and re-installing everything several times and tried wiping the Treo and re-syncing several times and can't get around it.

Please help! Thanks!!

Erik,

Had the same problemen when I upgraded Panther to Tiger. Powerbook did connect with Treo and synchronized everything except fot the iSync part: calender, addresses, etc.

I solved the problem by opening Palm Hotsynch Manager. It usually can be found in user/applications/palm.
Open it.
In the menu Hotsync you find an option 'Conduit settings'. Click on it.

Double click in the screen on 'isync conduit' and select 'enable isync for palm device'. Tiger will add a PalmOs device to isync and problem solved .... at least for me it was.

You can also check the iSync help of Tiger which is very complete.

Kind regards,

Aki
