Tried to hotsyc my Z72 with the company computer. Company computer has
the lasted version of hotsyc for my old m105 on it, but it takes one of
the IT guys to install new software on the company computer, and they
just haven't got it done yet. Thought I'd just try to hotsync the Z72,
thinking that all the desktop programs were the same. Wrong! I set up
a profile using the Z72's name and it did connect. I looked at the log
and it said all applications were "OK" except for photos. Then when I
looked in the apps, there was nothing there. Saw that at least all the
catagories for photos were there so tried to open one.
The Z72 came up with a Fatal Error. MemoryMgr.c,line:3632, Null
Handle. Then it had a button on the bottome of the alert that said
Reset. All the while the Z72 is making a faint, very fast clicking
sound. Tried the reset button, nothing. Tried the reset button in the
back and the Z72 seemed to reset -- came up at the Date and Time
window. When I tapped the "Home" icon, it went back to the Fatal Error
alert.
Did I kill my Z72? I've got the Z72 software on my home computer.
Should I try to syc with that? I'm feeling pretty stupid here.

Try this: Press the "up" button while pressing Reset. If that doesn't
help, you may need to do a hard reset: hold the power button and press
reset. This will erase everything in the Palm's memory.

Had to do the hard reset, but it's back to normal, minus all the
contacts I'd put in. Oh well, I need the practice with Graffiti 2.
Speaking of G2... After I reset the machine, I swear G2 got as erratic
as it was when I first got the Z72. I wonder if G2 has some program
that adjusts to your particular handwritting over time?

Still trying to figure out what happened when I tried to hotsync my Z72
to the Palm Desktop that was installed for my old m105. Went into the
palm support website and it says clearly that you can hotsync more than
one palm device (even if they are different models) to the same palm
destop. By the way, I think the Palm DT is the latest version
(hotsync.exe version 4.0.4). I did, by the way add the Z72's name to
the user list. The old m105 connected to the desktop through a serial
port and the Z72 connects through USB. Don't think that would make any
difference. Especially since they did seem to connect. Scared to try
it abain.
