I'm using Palm Desktop 6.2.2 and the task export files it produces don't work in Toodledo. Is this something you are actively working on or do I need to find some other way of getting the tasks up there? Sadly, the Palm device in question does not work with older versions of the software.

Palm has locked up the data file that is exported from Palm Desktop. We had spent considerable effort to reverse engineer the older data file, but now we have been unable to reverse engineer the new format.

There may be some way to export a different file, or use a third-party converter to get your data into the CSV file format, which is a standard format that we can read. I know that it isn't easy, but we don't currently have a better solution.

Here is what I ended up doing. I sync the newer Palm's data to a Palm TX, which is supported by Palm Desktop 6.2.2. Then I was able to sync the Palm TX to Palm Desktop 4, and then export to the usable format for Toodledo.
