This may sound like a dumb question, but I have no idea how much you know about this software. Are you sure you don't have two Palm users now, one with all of you data, and one without? There should be a users drop down list with one or more users somewhere in the upper right-hand corner of...

If I'm not mistaken that's a pretty proprietary format. Have you considered saving the files in some other format? For example, MS Word handles web docs like that pretty well, have you considered using Word to save the files in doc format, then using DocsToGo to view them? Alternately you...

There are a few email clients out there that I've tried, and several more I'm sure you could find by doing a quick search... www.snappermail.com http://www.markspace.com/mail.html www.corsoft.com Other than the modem and a phone cord, if I'm not mistaken, all you'll need is an ISP for Internet...

Did you install the Desktop Software while logged in as you, or a different user? As mentioned above, the Palm Desktop software needs to be installed for each user individually. A couple of items to consider while performing the install: 1. If you want other users to be able to see your data...

If you hotsynced you Visor with the same computer you'll hotsync the PDA to it shouldn't be a problem. In fact, most PDA's come with instructions on how to migrate from an older device to the new one. Having previously supported Palm devices for several years I highly recommend following the...

Pocket Mirror is one option, and a good one if he/she aleady has it. AlphaGuy

PDB's are gererally only available through specific applications. For example, WordSmith stores it's documents as .pdb files. To beam a .pdb file you'll generally need to go to the application that allows you to access the file's data. In other words, to beam a WordSmith doc, you need to use...

There isn't really a way to increase the "RAM" inside a unit (and anyone that argues that hardware hacks are available "and a good idea" for the general consumer is simply crazy). The expansion card will, however, solve the majority of a person's memory related issues if used wisely. 1. Many...

I haven't used a Tungsten C for several months, but I don't remember a way to do it without tapping the "Home" key. I've used VeriChat a number of times for AOL and MSN (if I remember correctly it also supports Yahoo and at least one other) and like it just fine. AlphaGuy

The current version DocsToGo (more specifically, SheetToGo) does not support Visual Basic. http://support.dataviz.com/support.srch?docid=12933&pid=2000 AlphaGuy

I supported Palm-based wireless devices for a while, and test them now. In my experience (with PalmOne and AlphaSmart devices) things work pretty smoothly. Minor issues are generally smoothed out with a configuration change, or a simple router/access point firmware upgrade (free from the...

I don't think you'll have much luck with a serial-to-usb adapter connecting to your cell phone to your Palm (of course their are products that I'm not aware of :) Most of the people I know that are connecting phones to PDA's are using either infrared or bluetooth. Bluetooth phones are still...

Did your Palm die too? If not, all you should have to do is re-install the Palm Desktop software, then sync your Palm. All of the data is on the Palm, and will be synced back to your computer. If this is not the case (you let the Palm battery die or something), let us know and we'll give you...

You've lost anything that was in RAM, which is basically everything that wasn't installed when you rec'd the unit. To clarify, there are two areas of memory that you should know about: 1. ROM 2. RAM Anything application shipped from the manufacturer (pre-installed) on a handheld is in ROM...

But you have to HotSync (right?). The other solutions work without hotsyncing (assuming you have wireless). AlphaGuy
