Trying to get pdf file transferring happening between a desktop computer and a palm. Environment is Mac G5 1.8Mhz computer, heaps memory, OS 10.3.4
Acrobat Reader v 3.05 appears to install correctly, but I can never get a successful setup with the palm device. The startup window for the Palm reader programme {on the computer} comes up with a dialogue that says "To begin using your Adobe Reader for Palm OS, please place your device in its cradle and press the HotSync button". The bottom of the dialogue had a status of "Waiting for HotSync" and the two options at the bottom areοΏ½
Click OK to select files to transfer, or
Click Cancel if you device is presently unavailable.
The device I am using is a Handspring Treo 600 {allegedly compatible with Adobe Palm - and it does work with other palm software, including iSync}
No matter how many times I try, the status remains as above. Attempts to send a file only produce messages saying that the file XXXXX.pdf could not be transferred to the pdf because no compatible application could be found on that device.
Adobe Reader is in fact installed on the palm, but on trying to open a file, it fails to find any files on the palm, either in its internal memory or on the SD card.
Help please.
