When I do a soft reset on my Palm m515, the date and time come up wrong. Then when I sync, the time isn't reset to the correct time. Anyone have a fix?

Yes, you need to go to prefences -> date and time, and input the correct time and date.

I can do that, Mike. Do you mean to say that this is normal behavior for my Palm?

Thanks.

Check out SyncTime. It will sync your Palm and Windows everytime you do a Hotsync.

Thanks to maceyr for the suggestion, but the trial version of SyncTime wouldn't work at all for me. There is a paucity of information available, but maybe it hasn't been updated for Palm Desktop 4.1. Also the "protection" feature of not adjusting for a time difference of greater than 8 hours seems to me to be a major drawback. Sometimes when I do a soft reset, the day as well as the time is wrong.

Maybe try Time Copy 1.4

Apparently it works on Palm OS 1.0 to 5.x. Someone on another forum says it even works for the T5

Thanks maceyr. Time Copy 1.4 works just fine. It is exactly what I was looking for.
