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?
