Got the following error while updating remote:
HarmonyDevice::This key is already associated with an element of this collection(457)Context: HarmonyRemote=Harmony050
Turns out the trouble is there are blank spaces in the 'additional button' settings for a device or activity. There can't be any blanks between entries on a page.

Syncing Palm with Yahoo's Intellisync
I had been using Intellisync with the Palm Zire for many years. Unfortunately, the Zire died recently and I bought a new T|X model Palm. When I tried to sync the TX, I received an error message indicating:
"A conflict in the installed conduits has been detected. This is caused when two different conduits are using the same PIM data type (e.g., Address Book vs. Contacts). To allow synchronization to proceed, use the Hotsync Custom dialog to change one set of conduits to 'Do Nothing'."
After some trial and error, I was able to resolve this by going into the Hotsync manager custom dialog, as indicated, and set the following to 'Do Nothing'. I also set the default for each of these to 'Do Nothing':
This solved the problem but another was soon introduced. When syncing the address book, I would get an error saying "Unable to write or update application". It turned out the problem here was due to the field mapping options. To fix this, I went into the Setup/Application Settings section of Intellisync and then chose "advance settings" from the Configure drop down box. At the next screen, I clicked on the 'Field Mapping' button and reviewed all the settings. I found one at the end that mapped 'Comment' to 'Note'. Not recalling seeing any note field in my address book, I removed this mapping and the Hotsync worked fine after that.

Behringer V-AMP 2 Battery Replacement
The Behringer V-AMP 2 is an amp modeler with 24-bit, studio-quality stereo effects including chorus, tremolo, compression, noise gate, delay, and more. It's a great product and use it with headphones to play guitar at night without disturbing the wife and children.
A while back, the V-AMP started giving me problems. The volume was inconsistent - on some setting the volume would be so low you could hardly hear it and on others it was loud. The preset sounds didn't seem to be working right and it often sounded muddy.
I finally got around to researching this some more and found that the problem was a dead battery. It turns out the battery is very easy to replace. Just remove the screws on the bottom of the unit and remove the back. The battery can be easily (and carefully) pried out. Replace it with a 3v lithium 2032 battery - it's one the flat kind. In case you forget to notice, the battery goes in with the positive side facing up.
The last step is to restore the presets by either restoring them from a stored library via midi or reset to the factory settings. To reset the unit, hold down the 'D and E' buttons while powering it up. The letters 'CL' will then appear flashing in the display. Release the D and E buttons and then press the two arrow keys at the same time (the bank down, bank up keys).
The v-amp should now be back to normal.
