Why do I get “Unnamed” entries the Addressbook database – or why does it not find entries when I use graffiti?
You have a bad preference setting. Go to the split tab of the main preferencepanel and then uncheck the box with the legend: Addr DB is sorted first/last. That option should only be selected when you are using a third-party addressbook replacement program that has the option to sort the database that way (the built-in addressbook does not have the option to do that). I get an “Address Database does not exist” when trying to open up split-screen This can occur on a newer PalmOne device such as the Tungsten T3, T5, E, Zire-72/31 or Treo-650 due to a bug in the PalmOne DataManager patch. It’s trivial to fix – just do a soft reset and the DM Patch will then properly re-create the Addressbook database and populate it with all the same data present in the contacts database.I can’t sync the Datebook database – the desktop crashes on the Datebook conduit or does not sync at allThere is a known bug in the Palm Desktop for Windows that can cause corruption in the end date of repeat appointments.

I can’t sync the Datebook database – the desktop crashes on the Datebook conduit There is a known bug in the Palm Desktop for Windows that can cause corruption in the end date of repeat appointments. Such corrupted dates instantly crash the HotSync conduit (usually with a fault in the DATSCN.DLL module). If this happens and you have not yet overwritten the good version of your database on your Palm Organizer, you can trivially solve this problem by just setting the datebook conduit to overwrite the desktop and hotsync. If you have inadvertently destroyed the only good copy on your or

If that fails to rectify the problem, you will need to do a hard reset as this would indicate the Palm OS is corrupt.
