I have a new Palm Centro and am trying to sync data from my old Tungsten. I
installed the new Palm Desktop software as instructed and performed a sync.
The data was moved from my desktop to my Centro, however now when I try and
synchronize the synch manager hangs when it reaches my Datebook. If I
deactivate the datebook from the synch list everything is sync'ed fine. I
have tried everything I could find in Palm's knowledge base (change user
name, removed and reinstalled the software, checked connections in sync
manager...) but alas...no resolution. Any suggestions?

Some things from such as apps won't work on the new palm units, did you go make sure that all apps

were compatible with the new Unit? Did you visit the dev's sites to download an updated version?

For one thing, are you sure it is hanging? It could just be taking a
long time (e.g. 10 minutes).

Otherwise, if could try scanning your Datebook database for errors,
either with dbScan (http://mytreo.net/downloads/dbscan,748.html) or
its replacement, DbFixIt (http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm).
You could have a corrupt or inconsistent record that stops it from
syncing.
