This reminder is sent out every month to remind the membership of the group's policies.

1) banning policy - any member who posts spam, ads or flames may be banned from the group without prior warning. Although it is the policy of the moderators to be lenient on questionable posts, the decision of the moderators to ban a member is final and may not be appealed.

2) hard bouncing - a member that is hard bouncing may be unsubscribed without prior notice. Hard bouncing means that an email account is no longer active or is experiencing severe problems. Such unsubscribed members may rejoin the group once their accounts' email addresses are functioning properly. (Note that, in general, a full mailbox is not sufficient to cause a hard bounce.)

3) soft bouncing - the moderators take no action, one way or the other, for accounts that are soft bouncing. To see your bounce history and request that your Yahoo! groups retry your email address(es), log into Yahoo! groups, then click My Groups -> Email Preferences -> Bounce History.

4) trimming posts - we recommend that you consider trimming irrelevant sections from posts that you are replying to. This makes your reply easier for the members to read and helps reduce server and network traffic.

5) spam blocking software or services - if you use spam block software or a spam blocking service, please whitelist "*@returns.groups.yahoo.com".

Thank you and we hope you are enjoying the group!

Ari,

I'll try the Palm reader. I loaded the Adobe reader, and for some reason the T3 doesn't recognize that the program is there. I did bring the reader up several times, but still didn't work.

thanks,

Sean

Hi Sean,

You got that error message because there is no software in your T3 that can read a pdf file (Palm Reader only can read a pdb file). To read a pdf file on your T3, you should install a pdf reader such as PalmPDF (i recommend this because it's free and small enough), Adobe Reader, or Documents To Go.

Hope it helps,

Ari

This may be old hat for most of you, but I'm new to T3 ownership.

I installed the Palm reader on my T3. I'd like to be able to transfer pdf files from my desktop to my pda, but the quick install won't let me. I get the error that says:

ERROR: The following file(s) could not be installed to the SecureDigital (SD) Card because there is no application on your handheld to open these files.

I've run the reader more than once, and tried sync more than once. No success.

What to do?

How to synch a T3 on Vista?

2009-11-04T06:38:30Z

I've been using a Palm T3 for two or three years, synching to my
Win98SE laptop. Now I'm moving to a Vista Home Premium laptop. The
Palm Desktop 4.something that came with the T3 won't run on Vista, not
even in XP compatibility mode. You just get the splash screen, but no
further. Palm Desktop 6.something for TX will run on Vista, but won't
synch properly with the T3; it makes MDB files that appear to contain
the T3's data, but when you load the Desktop, it's a tabula rasa.

Please, does anyone have a method of synching a T3 with Vista?

TIA,

Robert Bull

To: Tungsten_T@...
Date: Wednesday, July 1, 2009, 2:33 PM

I just searched the archives here and didn't notice anything on it so I thought I'd raise the issue of video on the Tungstens:

One of the reasons I've held onto my T3 for nearly 5 years is because of its excellent video capabilities. In fact, I just picked up another one for my wife on craigslist for $50 to replace her aging T2 (which was giving her screen problems).

The 400 MHz Intel processor and 320x480 screen are perfect for watching videos. I find I have little time to watch my favorite TV shows, movies or the News so I record them on my desktop PVR in MPEG video and then transfer them to a 1 or 2MB SD card. (See my last post about using 2MB cards). Then, during commuting, lineups or other breaks, I catch up. For long trips in the car, I even record my son's favorite cartoons and Discovery Channel shows to keep him busy.

I've done some experimenting with various media players and the best by far is the open source (free) The Core Pocket Media Player or TCPMP, for short. http://snipurl. com/lbitb With all the free plugins, it literally plays any video format out there. I highly recommend it.

I understand the T5 and E have better processors as well but personally, my fav is still the T3 because it's compatible with all the cradles, keyboards, cases, etc. that I've accumulated over the years from other Palms I've owned. For that reason alone, the T3 is excellent value in a PDA. Add the video capabilities and wide screen and the T3 gets my vote as the best Palm ever produced.

If the card is blank it needs to be formatted in the Card Info application on the Tungsten. That's ONLY if the card is blank of course.

I think Ryan is right though and the TT only supports cards up to 1 GB. To test that you could try to format the card (assuming there's nothing you need to keep on the card). If it won't format then the 2 GB isn't supported.

I just noticed that the TCPMP link in my last message required registration to download the free software. There are other sources that don't require it. Just Google tcpmp palm to find them.

Re: Error Messages

Thanks guys I will try the 1GB.

Re: Error message: SD card has no volumes on it, files cannot be installed to t

2009-06-24T23:05:47Z

Correct, only 1GB cards are supported. You cannot format or write to a 2GB card on the Tungsten T, T2 or T3.

However, I have been able to trick my T3 into identifying and playing audio and video files from a 2GB card. To do this, format the card in another device (I use my digital camera). Then, transfer files to the card from your computer using a flash card reader/writer. Presto. The T3 will now be able to access and read the files.

I've only tried this on the T3. I don't know if it'll work on the T or T2. If it does work, the video capabilities of both of them are very poor (unlike the T3), so it would only be good for playing audio files.

Re: Desktop software version 6 and my Tungsten T

2009-03-01T06:29:05Z

Version 6 is much faster and cleaner than versions 4 and 5. I do
agree that one should completely remove the old version before
installing 6. As to doing a backup-that should go without say and v.5
allows for this.
I am using v.6 on both the desktop and laptop machines and was able to
copy the backup from one to the other very nicely. For those who want
to update their contact lists-this is a great time for it.

Desktop software version 6 and my Tungsten T

2009-02-07T03:52:52Z

Just installed this and it will work fine. Be certain that you have a
real backup of ALL of your addresses and other data before doing it.
Version 6 integrates the Hotsync and puts it within easy reach. It
retains the DnD function and is supposed to work with Vista. Works
fine for XP SP3.
Be very sure to completely remove Version 4 if you are upgrading on an
XP machine. Things will go better with a clean install.
