How to erase blocked archives
Surely sometimes you will have tried to erase a file in the Palm, and you it will not have left saying that it is blocked. The same happens as much trying it from the option to erase of the own one to launcher of the Palm, like using a more complete program of file management, for example Filez.
A first attempt to avoid the protection is to make a soft reset: we press the direction key “arrives” and, maintaining it, we pressed the button of reset (this one and the others resets already were explained at the time). Sometimes after making it the file it will stop being blocked, but in others, it continues being impossible to erase it. What to do in these cases? Still reset is an opportunity before resigning to us to do hard.
In TamsPalm they show to one seguna option: using Filez, we must change the name of the creator (creator YOU GO) of the file, to for example “xxxxxx”. Then we make a soft reset, and the file at issue will stop being prote'ge'. We already can erase it, auqnue was protected by a cause: surely it was being used by the system. So we erase when it surely the Palm will reseteará. Not nothing happens, if we have not erased a file that really we did not have, everything continues working normally, and we are able to eliminate the one that is what we looked for.

That such Marks, I send a greeting to you from Monterrey, Mexico. I write to you because I have a doubt and not if you could advise to me. He is that a friend mine has a Palm black and white Zire that he obtained from second hand. The problem is that they were sold it without installation disc. You know some site from where can lower the CD of installation of this Palm?
Beforehand thanks and I wait for your answer.
Hello Luiz, enchanted of ayudarte. To see what I can do.
I do not know any site where to secure a copy of the CD that came with the Palm. But the main thing that could bring, is the program Palm Desktop (the one in charge to synchronize the data between the PC and the PDA), that settles in the PC. It is possible to be unloaded of here:
http://euro.palm.com/europe/es/support/win_desktop.html
Nevertheless, although in the page of Palm he is something confused, seems that the Zire, although is supported for this version of Palm Desktop, can have some mutual incompatibility with a so new version of the program. Most serious than it can happen is that some data cannot be synchronized, so you do not worry. It will be only known proving it.
I hope that the Palm Desktop works to you of wonder with the Zire. A greeting.
That such Marks, hear then with the newness that… It worked! already my friend under the Palm Desktop and this synchronizing without problem.
Very many thanks!
I am glad much of which it has worked. A greeting!
