Synching with Mac 10.X and Windows xp

[rgheath]

Just received new Tungsten TX. Have previous Tungsten T synchedwith XP. Would like to synch old files with new TX and then synch those files with my Mac powerbook. Any problems in doing this? Is one TX able to synch with both machines? What is first step? Install new software on old XP, synch data and then install on Mac? Or can I install on Mac and synch data later? Does it make any differesnce?

I've got a TX that I sync at work on XP Pro with Outlook 2003 and then take home to sync with my Mac to Calendar and Address Book. Works great. Just BE CAREFUL cause it gets sketchy going between a Mac and Windows. I've had things dup'd on me before and deleted. Make backups.

I bleed rainbow apples...OK, I guess now I need to bleed aqua blue...but we never had trouble doing this with my wife's T/C. I wouldn't expect you to have any trouble either, but as jobooth said, watch out for dupes and deletions. I bet, though, if you use just Palm Desktop for calendar and addresses you'll have to worry about it even less.

Oh, and make sure your hotsync ID on both computers matches that of the Palm.
