Lower the connection speed and try again.  For me, 38400 works but at
57600 the connection freezes.  9600 might work for you.  You should be
able to set even lower speeds by editing the preferences file in your
PilotManager directory (for me it's ~/.pilotmgr/preferences) but I
don't know how PilotManager reacts to this.

Make sure you have SyncMemo v1.04_01.  You might have to change lines
411 and 610 (?) where the output of the command "file" is parsed -- my
version of file puts a tab before the file type, when SyncMemo expects
a space.

Make sure you have specified the correct directory in the properties
dialog.
