New topic - unable to find the link to post my own question even though the Help & Terms of Use say to "Post New Topic link at the top of a relevant forum page to post your own question" which was supposed to be at the top of the query page which you had replied to earlier (see below) - Anyway, I don't know why that option isn't showing on my screen. Please direct me elsewhere, if necessary, but I am in serious need of someone who has Mac & Palm OS knowledge. I bought a new, replacement Palm Zire 31 to replace the my recently deceased Zire 31. I followed instructions, but since I already had Palm installed on my iMac from an earlier Palm M150 and subsequent Zire 31, I am unable to create the first synch between Z31 & my Mac. I do not want to lose 3+ years of contacts and calendar data which resides on my Mac via previous synchs with my old Palm units. Should I rename my old Palm installations and try to reload the Palm software CD? I know more info is needed to help my situation, but ask me and I'll try to answer. I'm a former PC user - had the Mac for 2+ years. Contemplating an iphone or Palm smart phone, but NEED my Z31 NOW and until such time as I do switch cell phones. - Thanks
