-- BEAMING problems!!!! (http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=1682)

I haven't been able to beam to any palm devices. I've tried a soft reset, holding it further apart, and beaming to a iiix or v.
ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS, as I haven't been able to hail tech support.

Sorry, Captain... I can't think of anything else to try... except, "Beam me up, Scotty!"

Did those other machines have "beam receive" turned on? (It's in prefs.)

yes, all the machines had beam receive on and were able to send/receive from other palms.

I have successfully beamed between my Visor and a Palm Vx... (We beamed across solitare).

i'v done it between my IIIx and Visor Dlx.

no probs here....

Make sure you both devices are running at the same speed. If you have an overclock program (like Afterburner hack) running at a different speed than the other device then beaming will not work.

As an aside, if you both have Afterburner hack installed and speed up both devices to the same speed, your beaming speed will be increased! I found this speeds up beaming of large files imensely.

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers,
Wes

Look at the FAQ for some tips that I posted.

HERE IS MY CUST SX LETTER TO HANDSPRING:
HELLO!!!!!!
I know that you guys are still being inundated by zillions of notes, but I finally recieved my Visor Deluxze now 1 month ago, and the beam infrared is broken. After SEVERAL unanswered emails to cust support and several hours of cust support hold time, the nice guys in tech support finally answered after my 11th call, and they are supposedly sending ANOTHER Visor Deluxe.

Please advise me of the STATUS of the replacement unit, as it has been 2 darn weeks without a word/package, and I figured that Handspring would actually pay some attention to customers who have waited for and received a BAD product and have it billed wrong AND sent to the wrong address, so WHERE IS MY "FUNCTIONAL" VISOR DELUXE?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I guess I will continue sending the same email everyday until I get a cogent and specific reply. Sorry.......
