Re: Help recover from crash

Did you restore the files "saved preferences" and "unsaved preferences"?
When my Treo crashes and some settings in the OS are lost, i mostly
restore only these two. Maybe some DateBK6 information is also stored
there.

reset, and simply resyncing did not work...I had to add things manually,
and in DB6, I've lost my icons, my font/color customizations for
categories, along with others.
