Sorry if this was discussed somewhere, I couldn't find it in the archives
I want to install sync support for Entourage on a new powerbook. I have
removed the Palm Desktop software (archived actually) because I'm not using
it, just Entourage. When I try installing the synchronization files from
Entourage juts places a conduit that the Palm sync process uses, so you
still need the hotsync portions of the Palm software (you can remove the
Palm Desktop application and the Palm Instant Desktop Extension), but you
still need all of the Conduit Manager, Hotsync manager, SerialPort Monitor,
When I do a Palm synch I wind up getting a bunch of duplicate categories in
Entourage ... which I have to go and manually delete. How do I prevent
these duplicates from appearing? Thanks.
