After a successful dock, you should see a message like "Connected to
Newton '<Owner's Name>' on COM1 <or COM2>". If you don't, then there's a
problem.

Are you trying to import a file? From/to what application? Try installing
a package first and see if that works. If so, then there might be a
problem on the eMate with the data in whatever app you're trying to import
to.
