Sheesh! Had Palm hotsync for the address book & contacts etc working OK, but
this morning it ding-a-lings when I hit the hotsync button, then a couple of
seconds later ding-a-lings again and logs off without syncing. Nothing I do
seems to make it want to sync again. Has anyone any thoughts about this? Now
I'm getting frustrated! Thanks.
