    Why can’t Palm Vx beam?

    Locked

    by anejako ·

    Dear All:

    One of my users is having trouble beaming things from her Palm Vx to other Palm Units (IIIc’s). When she tries to beam, she gets the error message “Could not find a receiving device.” When other people try to beam to her, they get thesame error message.

    We had to disable the infrared port on her IBM ThinkPad (running NT Workstation 4.0) because it was conflicting with her modem (Xircom). Could having disabled the infrared port have nullified beaming capability on the Palm unit, or is there another answer to why she can’t beam/receive beams?

      It sounds like bad hardware. Has it worked in the past?

        Sorry — it’s brand new, and the problem was that it needed a soft reset–then beaming worked.
