Hi, I have found a solution to the palm hotsync isue for users with another PC in the same network. I think this will work in all parallels versions. Use LAN hotsync, which bypasses USB on the machine you are syncing with. To setup do this: 1. Set hotsync in the Parallels VM to Network. To do this choose network from the hotsync menu, and check the tcpip settings in the setup, network tab of hotsync. 2. On the palm device (mine is a treo 650) go to the hotsync application and select LANsync, and put the lan settings from paallels into the spaces provided in primary pc setup on the palm device. 3. On the other PC on the LAN, just install hotsync, and sync the palm with it. The palm tells the syncing PC the LAN settings, and it should sync over the network. I realise that this will only solve the issue for a subset of users, but some is better that none. Oh, and before you ask, I dont think you can use the Mac partition as the connecting host, as I dont believe the Mac Hoysync support LAN sync, correct me of i'm wrong. Good luck Paul
Same works with Missing Sync from the Mac side I have gotten the same to work using Missing Sync from the Mac side, both with 3094 and 3106, using Bluetooth and when on my home network, via WiFi. Because I'm often on the road and connecting to various networks or off a network altogether, I usually have to use Host-only networking and disconnect whatever network my MacBook might be on in order to get the connection to work. Still working on it, but it appears that if the Mac is on a network and I try to use Host-only or Shared on the VM side, I am unable to successfully target the VM's IP from the palm. I'm guessing it's trying to route the connection via the primary network adaptor instead of the Parallels Host-Guest or NAT adaptor. I'd love to hear if anyone else has found a more convenient setup using Missing Sync. Changing the VM connection method, the Palm service/address, and taking my Mac off the net is a pain each time I want to sync. At least I can get it to work. Paul
