Synchronize your Palm and Mac with full support for national characters!
Do you write on the Mac and the Palm in your language and need your data to be transferred correctly? Does your Palm display “<String is unprintable>” or question marks instead of important information? Would you like to read text from your Mac on your Palm?
With Palm Encoding Setup and Palm Doc Converter you will finally be able to correctly synchronize data with national characters between your Palm and Mac.
Compatibility
Palm Encoding Setup is compatible with Apple iSync, Palm Desktop, Microsoft Entourage, Mark/Space Notebook (or the older MemoPad) and other Missing Sync conduits and independent on your synchronization software (HotSync or Missing Sync). It allows correct transfer of data containing national characters between all applications supported by this software, for example names and addresses (Address Book) or memos (Memo Pad) in your language.
The application is compatible with all common encodings (Central European, Romanian, Baltic, Cyrillic, Greek, Turkish, Arabic, Hebrew, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai and Unicode see details), which are used in software localizations for Palm handheld computers. It is not limited in any way by the type of your PDA or its software.
Reliability
Once the application changes the encoding, which the synchronization software uses, it does not interfere with the synchronization itself or the functioning of the system. Therefore it doesn't affect the performance or stability of the system.
Simplicity
Palm Encoding Setup is very easy to use. You receive a manual with the application, which will guide you through the installation and first synchronization. The following synchronizations will run as usual. The manual also contains solutions for possible problems and will help you choose a localization for your Palm (some are free) if you do not yet have one.
What Users Say
Amazing. I wish Apple had done this years ago!!! (I wrote them many times requesting that they fix this and telling them what was needed - but they never responded.) -- Anonymous review from MacUpdate
Thank you for the very useful app. It should have been Apple/PalmOne's duty. -- A. T., Clié user, Hong Kong
The software worked as described. Received fantastic email support from the author. Apart from the fact that this is the only solution to iSync's foreign language problem, it really is a nice implementation at a fair price. -- "Whytoi", China
By purchasing a copy of Palm Encoding Setup, you are contributing one dollar to the Schools for Africa project organized by Člověk v tísni (People in Need), a Czech charity organization. The collected funds will be used to build elementary schools in Ethiopia, where less than half of the children can attend schools. The previous collections made it possible to build five schools for 1160 children. (See more infomation in Czech and English.)
News: Updated conduit support
This update adds support for Mac OS X 10.5.2 and also supports all latest conduit versions and Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger". (Recommended for all users.)
After downloading, you can check if application detects your synchronization software and supports your encoding. If you are satisfied, you can purchase the activation code for $12.99, which will also give you access to future updates.
For the solution to be complete, we have developed an independent freely distributed application Palm Doc Converter, thanks to which you can convert, create and edit electronic books for the Palm in an encoding of your choice.
There are frequent updates ensuring compatibility with new versions of supported software, these updates are free of charge for registered users. If there are significant changes made in the synchronization software or if a new conduit becomes widespread, support for it will be added.
