Syncing 2 Palms on one PC

[jconkl02]

I have a Palm IIIc and my wife has a Palm IIIe. I'm running Windows 98. Is it possible to have her sync to her stuff and for me to sync to my stuff?

It is indeed possible to sync two or more palm's on one pc. as long as they do not have the same ID you should be able to create a new user simply by hotsyncing the other palm. if they do have the same ID you need to get a program capable of changing that (freeware is available fort that).

Yep not a problem. As long as the Palm's usernames are differerent. Just sync it and go. Not much to it really...

I use a Palm IIIc and my wife has my old IIIxe. We've never had a problem, and switching between our two profiles in the Palm desktop app is a breeze as well.

Drop a note if you have any problems or additional questions.

Best,

John

I have a problem also. I have a palm 515 and a 505. I have two user names one on each. When I tried to sync my 505 nothing happens on my pc. Eventually my hot sync just times out on the palm. I only wanted to install software so I adjusted all the conduits to "do nothing" except for the install options.

Pls help me.

as always i would advice to look in the logfile to see if it mentiones anything there.
done that try putting everything back to normal (should not have to be done, but just in case, since it will create a new user nothing will be overwritten) now reset your computer (sometimes logging out and in or restarting the program will work as well) and try again (sometimes hotsync loses control over comport in MS WIN). if it still doesn't work please post some more info (out of the log).
