Palm Pilot Question -

[madinmaryland]

Does anyone know what to do when your palm pilot freezes. No smart-ass answers saying its bill gates problem (it is).

:argh:

1. On my old m501

I had a reset on the back.

3. Thanks for the help

I hate reading the directions. I can't even find them, think i left them in work.
:hi:

2. Mine has a pin-size hole on the back to reset

A bent paper clip works well.

4. You should be able

To twist the top off of your ummmm..pointer thingie, and it has a little pin in it that you can use to reset it.

5. Some do, some don't. Mine doesn't have a reset pointer.

But a paperclip is always handy. :-)

6. The Palm OS is not a MS problem.

I hope you backed up the data, you will have to do a hard re-boot & this will most-likely wipe all the data off.

On the back of the palm their should be a small hole that has a button inside it. Use the end of a paper-clip or tack and press the button to re-boot.

Good luck.

7. Bill Gates didn't make the palm pilot, so you won't get any smartassity!

:D

8. If you can't find the hole,

take the battery out, then put it back.

No double ententre entendred.

9. forget the hole, where's the battery?

10. Um, well --

On mine, it is right beside the reset button. Um, I actually haven't used that method myself -- but my wife swears by it.
