After much ado and years of planning we have decided to leave our comfy home in Phoenix for an adventure in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The process has been slow and the work difficult, but the hope is that struggling through a Masters in Architecture from Harvard will all be worth it. The real difficulty will not be the long hours, grueling schedule, harsh critiques, or cold winters. Oh no, the kicker is named Miss Sophia - our beautiful three month old little girl.

Every christmas I give friends and family a mix tape of my favorite songs from the year. It is a big production using Jewelboxing and some cool graphic design. During December I labor for days trying to curate the best music for my eclectic mix of friends. Now with muxtape, I can make an organic mixtape that grows throughout the year! I am endlessly excited about this - you can find a permanent link to my current mix on the sidebar at the top.

I tired of not finding a concise tutorial on how to make this work. If you have a Treo using Palm software bookmark this entry and you should never have trouble getting sync to work again.
1. From your Mac download and install the appropriate Palm Desktop.
2. Open iSync on your Mac and go to Devices -> Enable Palm OS Syncing… Follow the instructions and select OK to close the window. The instructions at the end of the process are confusing so just continue.
3. Go to your Mac’s hard drive and browse to Applications -> Palm -> HotSync Manager. In the HotSync manager go to HotSync -> Edit Users then click on the New User button. Enter your desired name for the Treo you want to sync and click OK.
4. Make sure that the HotSync window has the HotSync Enabled button selected.
5. Still in the HotSync Manager go to HotSync -> Conduit Settings… and double click on the item iSync Conduit. In the iSync Conduit window check the box Enable iSync for this Palm device and select OK.
6. Back in the Conduit Settings dialogue select each of the conduits and give them the desired functionality for your Treo / Mac synchronization. Once complete close the Conduit Settings and HotSync Manager windows.
7. Go back to iSync and you should see your device shown. Click on your device and the window will expand to give you options for syncing your Treo.
8. Configure your synchronization for iCal and Address Book as desired. Note: there is some bug in iSync that will not allow categories in Address Book - you MUST delete the categories in Address book for any iSync synchronization to work in Leopard. While this is lame, the Palm will not really utilize categories anyway, so they are of limited usefulness.
9. Connect your Palm to the your mac using the USB cable and press the sync button. HotSync should launch on the Mac and Treo and you should be synchronized!
I have no idea why this is so complicated, but I have an inkling that the iPhone is quite a lot simpler. Too bad I am locked in a contract with Sprint and the iPhone’s internet is so slow. Once they release a 3G capable iPhone, Treo goes bye bye.
