Fouquet55 - were you successful?  I was not able to access the link on the reply to your original message.  My lifedrive 'crashed' and I just had the harddrive replaced, but do not know where the original install CD is - My lifedrive will boot, but I am missing software that enables me to hotsync (etc); attempts to 'get going' result in a message to reinstall the original CD on my computer ...  If you found that software, where did you locate it?
Thanks!

Susan

Just go to palms support web site and download the desktop software. 4.14E I think is the last version made for the LD
That will get you connected to the PC. The only software than comes on the disk are a few add ons. You should have
documents2go and ptunes that plays music on your LD now. Those and the system files such as hotsync and a few
others should have been installed into the hidden restore directory of the drive. When you do a hard reset they should
have reinstalled. Those you can upgrade a bit from the companies web sites.

What you won't get is the lifedrive manager and one other thing that escapes me at the moment.  Both are in the handy
but not needed category. For instance I never bothered with the LD manager after a few tries as it was a pain. I would just
use the drive mode to move stuff or just copy stuff direct to the sd card.

I thought there was a download available for the cd. Not from palm they wanted $10. If nothing else I'm sure it can be uploaded
again.
