Re: Problems syncing calendar and addressbook with Treo 680

[Matt Davey <mcdavey mrao cam ac uk>]

Hmm,

That's pretty strange.  Is that the sum total of gpilotd output?  If
not, please send more complete output.

I presume you've configured the conduits via the configuration applet,
and specified which addressbook and calendar to sync with?

Could it be caused by this issue:
http://lists.pilot-link.org/pipermail/pilot-link-devel/2009-October/001782.html
Can you do "pilot-xfer -p usb: -l" and see if DatebookDB exists, for
example?

Maybe others will have ideas.
