This article from Palm Addicts is invaluable in helping those of us with Lifedrives to sync our units.

Despite Palms recommendation I downloaded the new beta version of Palm Desktop, I Tried to sync but.... I Got a nasty Soft Reset (I'm use to it, I own a Life Drive), tried again and the same... well i tweak a little and discover that Addit Sync causes the soft reset so I turned off (configure applications in Palm Desktop) then the Syncing process continued but it freezes doing backup... so I turned off too.

How to do it?

Once all is installed (Palm Desktop) go to the taskbar right corner, you'll find a new hi res icon for palm desktop, right click on it, right click settings, the palm desktop apps will appear, go to applications and uncheck Addit, Backup and Media (this worked for my LifeDrive).

Give it a try at your own risk.

Now you can sync.

Conclusion: Well is not perfect but at least you can install now new apps, sync your calendar and stuff, you can't backup all your files but there are other solutions (resco backup, etc.), you can't sync add it but you can try plucker or others. After disable Addit and Backup from syncing the sync process continues and finishes without reset, it can install apps sync docs to go perfectly (Version released today 10.001).
