Mac Issues / ANN: ZMacSync-1.5b1 available

« on: November 10, 2004, 04:36:58 am »

I tried it out and everything seemed to install fine but I'm getting a couple of errors.  I'm just trying to sync the address book

>> Data from Zaurus-1 not available.

I have one record on the Zaurus.

And from the log:

>> Committing Local-1 with Zaurus-1...
>> Committing Zaurus-1 with Local-1...
>> Commit error for Zaurus-1 with Local-1

The records don't get transfered.  I tried Sync and File->Copy.  Any ideas?

I have a C860, Cacko 1.21b

Thanks.

Sharp ROMs / C860, Cacko and Qtopia Desktop sync

« on: November 08, 2004, 03:40:20 am »

BTW, I'm not necessarily tied to the Qtopia desktop, although I would prefer it.  But I'm against using Outlook.  So, other than Outlook, what can I use as desktop software that I can sync with the 860(cacko)?

Thanks.

Sharp ROMs / C860, Cacko and Qtopia Desktop sync

« on: November 06, 2004, 09:51:46 pm »

I recent bought a C860 while I was in Japan and decided to put on the Cacko rom 1.21b.  I tried syncing with my Qtopia Desktop (from my 5500), but I get an error:

 "This version of Qtopia Desktop does not match the version on your Zaurus"

Should this work or is there an English version of the Qtopia Desktop that I can use.  I also tried the one on this board in the Download->Desktop Applications section, but I got the same error.

Thanks.

Posting to myself.

Well, I solved the write permission problem.  The /usr/mnt.rom/card permissions were drwxr-xr-x.  I just gave all write permissions and now I can write to the disk.

Thanks.  Still don't know about the Qtopia desktop problem.

Well I got it.  Fantastic machine.  I bought a new one for 58,000 Y.  Sofmap had them for 43,800Y.  They were actually a little hard to find new.  Now I know why.

Anyway, a couple of questions.  I tried the english conversion of the regular rom, but I decided eventually on the Cacko.  

I have a Lexar 512M SD card and I'm having a problem that it thinks the card is locked.   I am unable to write to it.  I've reformatted it as ext2 and msdos.  I tried fdisking it.  Nothing seems to work.  Any ideas?  Yes I checked to make sure its not lock.

Question #2 is syncing with the Qtopia desktop.  I previously had the 5500, so I'm trying to sync against that Desktop software.  When I try, it claims it wants a different version of the software to sync.  I've read some messages in these forums that lead me to believe I can sync my 860 against the 5500 Qtopia desktop software.  Is this true?  If not, which Qtopia desktop software do I need?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm going to Japan later this week and I have a couple of questions.  I currently have a 5500, Sharp rom.

1) Can I buy a 760/860 from Japan and use it in America(Hawaii)?  Do I have to load another rom like OZ.  I've never tried that yet on my 5500.

if 1) is true, which I think it is

2) Can I use my 5500 apps on the 760/860?  I've bought some from the Kompany and I assume I would have to get other ones since they seem to have a different pick.  Are all apps like this?

3) I'm going to be staying at Ikebukuro,but I 'll go any place in Tokyo to get one.  In another post some people were saying that 7xx were going for $350 and the 860 is going for $700.  From what I read, the major difference between the 760 and the 860 is the ram, but what about the 750.   Does anybody know where the $350 760's are sold?

4)  Do all versions (750/760/860) have a usb host?

Thats it. Thanks.

Aloha
