Hmm, you have to be ROOT, an ADMIN account isn't enough. Have you enabled the root user account?
If "NetInfo Manager" sounds alien to you then I doub't it!
So here's what you do:
1. Open NetInfo Manager in the utilities folder
2. In the menubar go to Security>Authenticate, and put in your Admin p/w
3. Go to Security>Enable Root User, and it should prompt for a p/w, put in something you'll remember, but is HARD.
4. Log out, and under the list of users should be "Other"
5. Click this and in "Name" enter "root" and under the p/w you just made up
6. Do your installing - you should have no problems
7. Log out of "System Administrator" - it looks good, but is dangerous!
8. Log back in to you own account
9. Repair Disk permissions is always a good move.
If you've already done all this I apologise, here's the other thing i can remember:
1. Go to HD>Library>Applicatio Support
2. Find "Palm Desktop" and "Palm Hotsync"
3. Do 'get info' on these items (command-i)
4. Expand "Ownership & Permissions:"
5. Expand "Details"
6. Click the unlock padlock
7. Change ownership to your account (enter p/w)
8. Make sure you can "Read and Write"
9. Do the installs
10. Repair permissions
I wish I could just do this for you! It's a hasstle, and I've done it a few times. You may also have problems further down the line if you decide to install the
iSync Palm Conduit (With which conduits should be where).
Feel free to PM me if you have trouble.
Hope this helped.
P.S. You may wanna try method #2 first as being the 'root' user can be dangerous!
P.P.S. - Why do I know so much!? I should be paid for this s**t!
