I recall having similar intermittent issues myself. In my opinion HotSync has more bugs than features; I think the version of Palm OS is less relevant in this case. I still experience occasional issues with Missing Sync - usually a "connection lost" message, but on the whole I have found it to be more reliable. You could try deleting any HotSync-related preferences but if you plan to continue using your device for the next year or two, I'd certainly consider investing in Missing Sync. Hi Dick.

Usually it just does nothing when I click on hotsync. Sometimes soft reset helps. Sometimes I do that three times and then it works. Is this a recognized problem? I have never had any trouble syncing the same device to a PC, but I use a Mac at work. Do you think I have hardware trouble? Would Missing Sync work better? Thanks for any help.

Thanks for any help.
