T|E Hangs on synching contacts

Archived from groups: comp.sys.palmtops (More info?)

Subject pretty much says it all. I've got no third party Contact
handlers, it's just basic OS5.2.1. Contacts from right out of the box.

It doesn't even really hang, in that it doesn't lock up, it just sits
there for up to fifteen minutes "Synchronizing Contacts". Takes a
cancel on both PC and palm, and usually an Alt+Ctrl+Del to kill the
Hotsynch manager from the PC.

XP Home
Palm Desktop 4.1.4
Hotync Manager 4.1.0
PIM Support Update Patch for T|E loaded.

Any ideas?

I have had this happen before and sometimes there is one corrupt entry which
seems to muck the whole process up. I get out of it by overwriting once
instead of syncing, I get my outlook up to date and change the conduits so
outlook overwrites handheld.

Hope this helps.
