Anyone using SplashID on their K-Jam?

[twn2]

I'm trying to get my database moved to my K-Jam from my PDA2K. I can't seem to make it work. I move the .sdb, but it won't open on my K-Jam. Not sure if I'm missing something.

Thanks,

This is what works for me: From the desktop SplashID app, "Export" all items in the PDA2K database to a .vid file, install SplashID on the KJAM setting the password to the same one as the desktop SplashID app and then sync. This will establish a new SplashID user (with blank data) in the desktop app with the same user name as the KJAM device name. Set the password for this new user to the same as on the KJAM SplashID. "Import" the saved database .vid file to the new user on the desktop. Make sure that SplashID is checked in the ActiveSync options and then re-sync. After that all the PDA2K data will be on your KJAM.

So there's not a way to just copy the database (or beam it) to my K-Jam?

Here's the strange part, I tried your suggestion but ran into a problem. I got the files into the SID desktop, but when I try to sync, it says the passwords don't match and it won't transfer. It takes the same password to open the desktop as it does to open the pda. Not sure what's wrong.

I keep getting "67 items unresolved" and password must match in order to sync. They do match though!

Thanks,

I don't know. This always works for me. I guess I would try uninstalling SID on the KJAM and then reinstalling it, making sure that the pw matches the desktop SID pw and then re-syncing. Seems like something is wrong with your pw somewhere so just redefining it to a simple one like "1234" on both SIDs and then syncing might be the first thing to try.

The problem that I used to have before using the procedure that I outlined before was that I would get duplicates of both the data items and the categories so I would sometimes wind up deleting all data and categories from both the desktop and PDA SIDs, then importing the data to the desktop SID from the .vid file and re-syncing. This would clear things up.

Sorry I am not more help here,

No problem....thanks for the suggestions. I just tried deleting everything I could find relating to SID and started over. No luck...password problem still. I've sent an email over to SplashData for help. Thanks again!!

I've had this several times after re-establishing an Activesync partnership. The cure is usually to reset the password on both the desktop and PPC a couple of times until they sync.
