Sync or import from Outlook to Palm M130

[Alis50]

Is there a way to sync or import my contacts to my Palm M130 without purchasing a third party software?

Yes. As you were loading cd that came with your palm, it gave an option as to whether to snyc to outlook or to palm's database. Just run through the installation again and select the outlook option.

Palm M130 doesn't come with this option. Some Palm's model do, but not this one. Y have to buy a program that use to come with other models.

I'm sorry to hear that. I purchased a Palm m130 about 8 months ago. I orginally set it to sync to palm's contact database. About 4 months ago, using the cd to install the snyc files on my desktop, I reloaded the files and went for outlook. It has been working just fine. What cd's came with your m130?

 

[Alis50]

It came with 2 CD, Palm Installation CD for Win & Mac- that includes Palm Desktop ver 4.01 Software-Complete documentation. The 2nd. CD has Palm Reader, DataViz & MGI for pictures.

Hello, again!

We may have hope! I am refering to the Palm Installation CD. Of course, mine is at home, but when I reran the installation is when I received the option to use Outlook or to use Palm Desktop for contacts. It then loaded Chapura Mirror on my desktop (which syncs outlook) instead of Palm Desktop.

I just checked the Palm website and Chapura Mirror is still bundled with a new purchase. Since you should have a clear license to use it, check out Chapura's site as well for some additional upgrades or manuals.
