Read "Choose the right software for your Palm" (http://www.computingunplugged.com/issues/issue200403/00001242001.html) 3 nice articles with the download & install help How-To Guides http://www.pdamd.com/vertical/tutorials/guides/installsoftware.xml How to Download and Install http://www.jimthompson.net/palmpda/Tips/downloadtips.htm PalmOne Tutorial - Windows http://software.palmone.com/Palm_Tutorial.jsp?siteId=291 ===================== == P R O B L E M S == ===================== UPGRADE AND UNLOCK CODES General policy: Upgrades are free for 1 year since the date of the purchase, prolongation for the next year costs 50% of the actual price. Unlock codes They do not change within the minor updates (e.g. 1.30 -> 1.40); they change for a major upgrade (e.g. 1.80 -> 2.10). Consequently, you do not need a new unlock code for a minor upgrade. Several typical problems can be solved on Resco support web pages offering web-based formulars that allow you to: - Query lost unlock code - Request an upgraded unlock code in case of a major upgrade - Change your e-mail address in our customer database INVALID UNLOCK CODE The most frequent reason is a typing error in the HotSyncId, e.g. "john" instead of "John" (case error) "JanS" instead of "Jan S" (missing internal space) Contact please our support in such case. (Do not forget some order identification. In the worst case we can identify you by either your name or your email address.) HOTSYNC ID HotSyncID is used to generate the unlock code. Please note that it is case sensitive and the internal spaces are important. HotSyncID is the string that the PalmOS uses to identify the session between the handheld and the desktop PC. It can be found on these places: - (PC) Palm Install Tool (combo box at the top) - (PC) Palm Desktop Menu / Tools / Users - (Palm) press the HotSync icon (in the System program category); the string is written in the top right corner - Resco Neeews! registration dialog INSTALLATION PROBLEMS Card installation: Possible, but you loose background update. Pocket Tunes: To use the podcast streaming you need Deluxe version. FULLSCREEN SUPPORT FOR TUNSTEN T3 Resco Neeews! supports fullscreen T3, but you have to have the Palm DIA patch installed.
