I have a Palm Pilot 505 that I am no longer able to Hot Sync?  Has
anyone experienced this problem?  If so, what did you do?   Thank
you!!!!!

Hello sweetsl,

I don't know the particular HotSync problem you're experiencing -- but
I presume that you'll find the answer in these documents from Palm,
Inc.'s website.

The first, fourth, and fifth links came out incorrectly in my answer. 
For some reason, the last character -- the right parenthesis -- is not
hyperlinked.  After you click the hyperlink (and, unfortunately,
receive an error message), you should add the right parenthesis to the
URL in the address bar and then enter that corrected address.

if everything fails Palm Pilot support on their website are pretty
good in responding. I also had the same problem with a m130 and they
helped me, forgot what is was, some stting.
