I have a G4/400 using a Palm Professional (1MB version) and the MAC USB kit. I am using OS 9.0.4 and Palm software 2.6. I have synched afew times but bnow I can't get the Palm to be recognized but the computer.

The serial monitor is active and I have Filesharing off. I amusing a DSL line but don't think that is the problem. I have tried using Conflict Catcher to turn off all extensions except USB and Palm related but this does not work.

Any suggestions? Please help.

Thanks.

One thing that had me on the verge of madness in a similar situation was that my Palm had somehow changed it's connection method from "Direct to Serial" to "Palm Modem". Open your HotSync Manager on your Palm and check to be sure it's set for "Direct to Serial". Then do the same on your Mac. Good luck! And remember, don't give in to the temptation of employing "Percussive Maintanance," a.k.a. slamming the crap out of it.

Try plugging the cradle directly into the USB port of the mac. I fought for hours with my Visor trying to get it to sync, it would just partially sync, then drop the connection, or not sync at all. I had it plugged into a Belkin USB hub, and then the K/B, and it didn't work correctly every time until I plugged it directly into the mac.

I have similar problems happen to me. To resolve it, I will unplug the USB to serial adapter from the USB hub with the Mac ON and plug it back in. Syncing usually works like a charm after that!
