If Quick Install, a program used to transfer files between the user's computer and Palm Treo, is having problems, troubleshoot the issue with a few steps.
Check Settings
Check the file type you are trying to use with Quick Install to make sure it is of the .prc or .pdb variety. See where successfully transferred files are being sent. If they won't go to internal memory, send them to the Treo's memory card, or vice versa.
Hard Reset
Reset older Treos by holding the "Power" button, pressing the "Reset" button on the back of the Treo, then releasing the "Power" button once the "Palm Powered" screen appears. For newer Treos, hold the "Power" button while removing the battery, and then replace the battery. Do not release the "Power" button until the "Palm Powered" screen appears.
Reinstall Palm Desktop
Uninstall Palm Desktop from your computer and reinstall it from either the CD included in the box with your Treo or the Internet, if you have lost or broken this CD.
Use Another Application
If Quick Install has a bug that will not allow file transfer, download another program like MyInstall or PInstall to move files from your Treo's memory card to and from your computer.
