Re: Problem with hotsyncs...

["Perley B. C. Mears Jr." <perley.mears@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Robert,

	I have found that for me these messages are caused by some of my Palm
DBs having spaces in the name, so when it tries to delete the oldest
backup, it can't delete those files and causes that message. I then go
in by hand and delete those directories by hand in the .pilotmgr
directory, which is where the conduits store their info. Why this would
affect your calendar I do not know, as I have not seen it affect any
other conduits in my case.
