Palm Desktop 4.0 for Mac OS X still ceases to hotsync after using a clean installation of the software for a while. In my case I use the old Palm III serial craddle with a Palm USB-Connectn USB-to-serial adapter. I sure hope that Palm releases a fix fast.

Have you tried disabling and re-enabling Hot Sync when this happens? I've run into the same thing, but not lately, so I haven't tried this out. It seems like the task that supports Hot Sync dies or becomes corrupt after awhile, and when it does, it also messes up the restart procedure.

What you suggested worked. It just shouldn't be this hard.

I've tried this but it didn't work. I'm running out of options. I've read and am still reading all the posts concerning hotsyncing Palm 4.0 and OS X. So far no luck.

Palm Desktop 4.0 won't work with Classic for me either.
