I have problem. I just downloaded the Palm Desktop 4.1.4(I think its that version if I am not wrong.). I tried to install without uninstalling the previous version. I was thinking that the new version would overwrite the previous one. However, instead of turning it to a new version of Palm Desktop, everytime I open it, messages will keep poping out.

It says that it has error opening the database of all the applications such as memo contacts and so on. However, when I browse through the contacts and so on it has all the data I have in my pda. Is there anyway I can solve this problem. I have tried uninstalling the previous version and installing the newer version. But it still keep coming out the same error message.

The other thing is I tried Quick intall the Back Up Plus that I downloaded from the Palm website. I installed the Back Up Plus.prc, the Back Up PlusenUS.prc and the Back Up plus Update.
When I tried backing up in my pda, it says I have configuration error. I am not sure what it means. Why does this happen and how do I solve it?

Thanx.

The error message that I received once open the Palm Desktop application was:




Error: Failed to open ******* database.

The ***** includes Address list, Memo pad and To Do list.

Most likely your configuration on the appliation is pointing to the wrong configuration file. Secondly, check to see if you have more then one "profile" on the PDA and in you Program Files. You could possibly be pointing to the wrong data folder
