I need help. I keep getting a message that this installer
is not compatible with my device. I contacted Palm they
told me to contact microsoft technical support because
they think it is a faulty installer application in the
Windows Operating System.

Hi Tim,

Activesync is not compatible with devices based on the Palm operating
system. It is compatible only with Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs and
Smartphones. For more information, visit the following page ---

To install new software on a Tungsten, you need to be using the Hotsync
software that came with the handheld. If you're using Microsoft's
ActiveSync, it's not going to work.

Try these two newsgroups for help:

alt.comp.sys.palmtops.pilot
comp.sys.palmtops.pilot

The people there would be able to help you no problem. Plus, you'd have the
added bonus of your post being on topic, which is always a good thing. Hope
you get it sorted out.
