WHAT'S NEW
Version 4.2.1revD: We have devised a more elegant fix for the permissions issue we had encountered with iSync (formerly addressed in Rev C). We have re-released the desktop with the improved installer behavior. For those who have already installed Rev C, there is no reason to update to Rev D. The Rev D installer does not adjust permissions on non-Palm-related folders. However, if you installed Palm Desktop and you noticed that some Mac applications no longer work, you may need to reinstall these applications. See Knowledge Library article 40283 for details.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.2.6 or later.

JOSHEWAH  This app still works, and with the isync conduits enabled I can sync with ical... However, this is the only application still life on my system that is PPC only. No wonder Palm is doing so badly. They can't update their own OS, and they can't update their software.  (Version 4.2.1revD)

AKROBAT  I used to rely on this software... back in the day.

I now use Daylite instead of this ancient app.

Why?

No update for more than 2 years.

No Intel or UB version.

No interest.

Welcome to Palm.  (Version 4.2.1revD)

MIKE  G4 Yikes! running Mac OS X Panther 10.3.9

I ran the installer under sudo (using the util Pseudo), as has been suggested to address some problems with syncing. A previous version I'd installed and used on another system would come up with frequent and vague errors on launch that would cause it to quit; so I wanted to see what the installer would do with better access to the system files.

Well, it took away my permission to modify the Applications folder, the root of the boot disk, the home folder, etc. I was still able to run Disk Utility, so I fixed the permissions, and all seems normal, and the program is working well.

Since I installed it in a non-standard way, I'll refrain from rating the installer/program, but it does seem undeniably more problematic an install than most.  (Version 4.2.1revD)
