Usually, this is caused because the machine that Device Seizure is installed on also has the Palm Desktop HotSync manager running as well. Disable the HotSync manager and the acquisition procedure should proceed as normal. Also, this can be caused by the device being in console mode. To ensure this is not the problem, perform a soft reset by pressing the indented reset button on the back of the device, it may be under the battery cover.
