I'm having almost the same problem as Suzanne Blake.

I am running OS 10.2.1 and a Palm m105 (has a serial cabled cradle), 
have downloaded, unstuffed and installed Palm 4.0.3, and am using an 
IConcepts PDA USB adapter (the package specifically says, "Compatible 
with all popular brands of PDA" and "Compatible with Mac 10.1 or 
above").  The Palm software looks great on the iMac screen, but when I 
try to hot sync, the PDA says, "The connection between your handheld 
and the desktop could not be established."  In the Palm software, I 
have tried all the variants under HotSync--Software Setup--Connection 
Settings, with a restart after each change.  The PDA is a year old and 
worked just fine with my previous Win98 and WinXP computers.

I would have preferred to buy the PalmConnect cable adaptor instead of 
the IConcepts, but when I was shopping for it 2 weeks ago it was out of 
stock at palm.com, Circuit City, Best Buy, and CompUSA.  I *suspect* 
the problem is in the adaptor... but the fact that Suzanne, who isn't 
using an adaptor at all, is also stymied makes me wonder.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
