All, I'm 99% sure my drive is dead, just "click, click, click" when I do a hard-reboot and I don't get past the "Palm" initial screen. I'm interested in...
Hi Howard, Well I did it and it worked OK. I found an old laptop with a usb port and loaded the unbuntu linux onto it. Then with a USB CF card reader mounted...
Howard, www.usedparts.com will do the whole replacement for $95 plus shipping with a guarantee. I don't have a lifedrive anymore but I still miss the one I...
Alas, The charging circuit, actually the cable connector is what failed on my lifedrive also. Since they no longer make them I decided to give up. Jerry in...
Actually it was the cable connection. First it quit connecting to my computer or responding to the Cable/Cradle which was OK as I could still sync with...
If my Lifedrive dies, I'm planning to buy another on Ebay. Actually, the price of used Lifedrives is so high that I think there would still be a good market...
My brand new one only lasted a year. A used one from someone you don't even know sounds even riskier. The engineering is just not as good as some of the other...
I'm trying to send SMS messages from my LifeDrive to my phone (K550i) via bluetooth, but the PDA displays that the configuration is no set up correctly. I...
I don't need a GPS, the Asus is too bulky, and I don't like the Pocket PC operating system. I might get a TX. I've had my Lifedrive now for 2 years....
I love my LifeDrive. I will definitely want something like it when I have to replace it. I looked at the Asus and it looks cool. I definitely like the idea of...
I just bought a used LD on Craigslist. It seems to work great (at least as well as I expected), but I'm having trouble getting background music to work with...
I can no longer hot sync my Palm with the cable; it doesn't maintain the contact for more than a second or two. I have successfully used bluetooth Hotsync in...
Hi Bvlenci: I had pretty good luck following the set up instructions at the Palm website in getting bluetooth sync w/ mine. If you haven't looked at it,...
Go into your bluetooth in control panel. Click on Ports. Close all of the ports and unplug the sitecom device. Now plug the device back in and hit hotsync as...
As I said before, I had already successfully set up and executed Bluetooth HotSync. Now I get this "com port unavailable" message, and there is nothing on the...
Can anyone help me. My Life palm contines to turn off and on. When I try and do the hard or soft reset it clicks off. I do not know if it is the battery or...
Sandra, Even if you send it back they will tell you they can't fix it. They have no parts and they will at best give you a credit towards another Palm device. ...
Sandra, Palm is infamous for not supporting their products or caring about customer service for customers. Their main goal it to sell you a new device. What...
I am a Ham Radio Operator and in my experience with these new fangled toys is that they make them smaller and smaller with surface mount components and micro...
Hi, New member here... I have a Lifedrive and added AventGo to it but it is not downloading any data to my pda. I have tried reinstalling etc but it tells me ...
I respectfully disagree with the last two postings. Don't give up! If you like the lifedrive then get it fixed. Don't concern yourself with what repair...
... And how exactly, using what metrics, do you propose that each and one of us arrive at a suitable, truthful, answer to this eternal question of "what works...
David, That sounds good on paper. My LD only lasted 1 year! In fact it died 3 days after the warranty was up. That makes it the shortest living piece of...
Ahh Ian, thank you again for demonstrating why I stopped posting in open blogs. The reason people post questions here is to get answers, so here is the answer...
I assume you have an Avantgo account and have Avantgo configured on your LifeDrive and TX with that account information. On my LifeDrive which syncs two times...
