One, make certain that HotSync is actually running. Assuming this is a Windows PC, look for a HotSync icon on your taskbar, near the clock in the lower-left corner of your screen (assuming your taskbar is at the bottom of the screen). If HotSync isn't running, click Start > Programs > Palm Desktop > Hotsync to start it up. Now, find that HotSync icon near the clock and right-click on it. Near the top of the context-sensitive menu, you should see options such as "Local Serial", "USB", and "Network". Is there a checkmark near the USB option? If not, click on it in order to enable USB syncing. If the USB option is not present, you have an old version of HotSync Manager. Visit http://www.palmone.com/us/support/downloads/win_desktop.html and download the latest version of Palm Desktop which will include the current HotSync manager as well. Install the new stuff, reboot your PC, and try again. Does that help?
