This charger is perhaps a luxury, and probably not really required - so long as a Vx is fully charged before use in Topsy, but it is a comfort to know that the Vx will not die unexpectedly! However, as the m series batteries have more capacity than those on the Vx's there is probably no need to have a charging system in the organ itself.

Fitting them, however, seems to be impossible as there appears to be no way to open the case. Actually, it can be done, using the instructions detailed at Ifixit. For just replacing the battery, y ou will only need the instructions in steps 1 - 4 just removing the back. Unplug the battery connector, then if the battery cannot be prised off, follow steps 10 - After replacing the battery, replace the back, and re-apply some heat to seal it.

At first sight, it all appears quite daunting, but only the back has to be removed to be able to swap the battery - removing the screen is not necessary. However, it was with some trepidation that I approached the task myself. Knowing I had the other Vx as a spare was my only comfort during the process, but afterwards I realised that I should not have been so worried. Replacing an m series battery. The battery for the m's is larger than that for the V series, but is more easily accessible, providing you have the right tool - usually a T5 sized Torx screwdriver or a tiny Philips cross-head screwdriver for some early ms.

Don't try to open the case without the correct tool, you will probably damage one or all of the four screws and make it impossible to open at all. After removing the four screws, the back still has to be 'popped' open with a thin blade around the top and sides of the back cover join, and it does take some effort to get it to open.

After replacing the battery, the back has to be snapped closed - again with some conviction - before inserting the four screws. The Upgrade software PalmOS If you have any data on the Palm that you want to keep, then whatever you do, before anything else, perform a full Hotsync backup of your data onto your PC with your existing setup.

If it is only MIDI tunes that are to go on the Palm, then these can be re-installed later by the Loader, so no backup is necessary. This method means that a user name has to be entered - so there are no conflicts when starting the actual upgrade process. You can now follow the on-screen instructions to install the Desktop software.

EXE is set up correctly. EXE , and set it up as described above. Performing a Hotsync should now restore all the data in the backup made at the beginning, and the Palm should be running as normal but with the 4. Normal Settings for Hotsync. The basic settings are given in an earlier paragraph , but as you are just using the Palm for MIDI files, then there are some other settings worth adjusting.

Note that settings return to their Defaults as soon as a Hotsync is performed. If you wait patiently, you can see a video about setting up Hotsync Manager here. I found the following pin outs on 'Peter's Pilot Pages' - www. The Vx has the pin connector, and the m's the larger pin version. Using a memory card on the m's. To enable the ittyMIDI Loader to put 'books' of song files onto a Digital card plugged into an m instead of into its normal memory, it has to be 'advised' before a Hotsync is performed after 'books' have been created in the Loader.

This requires the use of the Instapp. When this program is started, first select the User, and then Add. Use the Look in box to navigate to. Clicking on a Book name should reveal two. Highlight both these, and then click on Open - which will add the highlighted files to the files list.

Click on Add again, and use the 'Up one folder' icon to go back to the list of Booksto repeat the process for all the Books that you want to go onto the SD card. Now click on Change Destination. A further window opens, which has columns for the 'Handheld' and the 'Secure Data Card' or whatever destinations.

Clicking OK and Done completes the process, ready for the following Hotsync. The card simply acts as a memory extension - the files cannot be displayed separately, and when the Player is started on the Palm, if it finds books with the same name in internal memory and on the card, it declares that it will ignore one of them.

This message can be very irritating as it repeats each time a Book is selected, so try to avoid accidentally putting Books in both memories. A stated previously the files from the Loader are usually located in a folder in the. However, if - like me - you occasionally let your Palm die from battery exhaustion, your Player program and books will be reloaded from a previous 'handheld backup' when you recharge and do the next Hotsync.

Under those circumstances, the files for the books will be taken from:. My user name was JohnsoD. Obviously, if all your books were on the card, they would probably still be there even though the Palm had 'died', but the ittyMIDI database of file locations may be corrupted by the 'dying' of the Palm, so it may be best to Reformat the card, and use the Loader and Instapp routines again Glad I found this solution! It works flawlessly! Like so many others, I love my Palm Pilot and have used one since With Windows OS constantly updating, I keep worrying that I will eventually have to give it up, but alas, your website helped me continue to use it.

I love that I don't have all of my private info and passwords in my phone or in the cloud. This week I loaded windows 10 64 bit and tried to install my palm pilot with no success. I did all that you said in this post, but then I couldn't get my palm information to show in the Palm Desktop. After some research, I found the link to this website to provide a "patch" for legacy Palm Pilots Tungsten C. Then all of the data showed up in my Desktop again. When most of the other Palm OS vendors dropped out of the market, Palm rewrote their PIM applications and came out with a new internal architecture that was not fully compatible with Palm OS applications written for the earlier generation devices.

We refer to the older devices as Legacy devices. Here is a list of specific devices which fall into each category: Legacy Devices: any device running OS4 or earlier, any non-Palm brand handheld Sony, Garmin, etc. This procedure has worked perfectly with my Palm Zire 22 which is legacy model from the past. I thought I would never get the data transferred but it has worked perfectly with Windows Thanks so much In very special when I am visiting Industrial customers in the countryside, and also want to use my old, I know!

I will do the same procedure to my notebooks Windows My very best regards!
