Error: Could not open address book database

I use the Palm Desktop software with copyright 1992-2001.  I've initially used a Palm IIIxe, but not used for years. However, I found that the address book was helpful on my desktop computer that is running Windows XP.  I had left my computer over the weekend and had used with LogMeIn on my computer at home, as I often did in the past; However, I did not open the Palm Desktop address book last weekend.  When I went to access yesterday, I got the above error message.  Of course, the manual provided with the software and the Palm IIIxe had no recommendation on how to fix this error.  I don't even know if I still have the original IIIxe Palm and even if I do, I think that it stops working.  Does anyone know how to restore the database?  Help!

Glad you were able to recover at least what you were doing.  The primary data file has been damaged and there is no way to recover that.  The presumption with Palm Desktop, it's that synchronize you with a portable device that would have been able to replace the copy damaged on the desktop with the current version.  Because that has not been done, the .bak file is based on the last synchronization.  At least you have that.

If you hold that current file recreated data, your best bet is to make a copy of occasional backup of it, perhaps on a flash drive.  You can also export a copy of it (check the menu file in Palm Desktop for your export options).

And then, for an amount reasonable, you could probably purchase a device Palm of opportunity on eBay or elsewhere, to Hotsync with.  I suggest you a Palm TX.  My data backup only with Hotsync in my office, but also directly to a SD card installed on the device.  This backup on SD is done automatically every day, and if something happens to your handheld data loss, I'm about 45 seconds a full restore from the SD card.  I like the redundancy.

  • TrueSuite Fingerprint error "error: could not open the specified database.

    Hello

    I bought new Toshiba Satellite P300-PSPCCA two weeks back and fingerprints worked very well. Suddnlly stoped working. I was getting connection to fingerprint for the unavailable error message when I start my laptop. I try uninstalling and reintalling software Truesuite and dirvers but no luck. I downloaded the latest version of the software from toshiba Web site but still no luck.
    I was looking for a solution and I have read on several forums that must back the driver, if who does not then the only solution would be the factory default setting.

    I try to roll back the drivers, but still, it does not solve the problem. Finally, I put my laptop to factory default and still having the same error message...
    I also tried to delete all fingerprints via the Truesuite software but I get "error: failed to remove fingerprints...

    It has no option in the bios to wipe the fingerprints of memory... because I saw in IBM there is option in the bios to remove the fingerprint via bios... but not at toshiba...

    I really need help with my problem... Please... someone help me...

    Kind regards

    Hello

    These questions are not easy to solve. Many people have noticed problems with this software and everything what you have done is OK, but one thing is strange to me.
    After the new installation of the operating system using the Toshiba recovery image everything should work perfectly. After doing this you have the same situation as after the purchase and start. Then I don't understand how you can have this problem again. The fact is that the stored data will be removed by cleaning the drive HARD or OS recovery to factory default state.

    Hello

    I noticed a new update for software fingerprinting for protected R600.
    Remove the old application of fingerprints, restart the laptop, clean the registry and the system using a 3rd party too (CCLeaner is free and not bad).
    Then reboot again.

  • Question of TrueSuite of fingerprint - error: could not open impression fingerprint sensor

    Hello

    A few days ago my TrueSuite reinstalled himself and then asked to restart the computer, which I did. But things, when I turned on the computer laptop back to reboot, TrueSuite will have to reboot again. This happened a few times, so I reset the laptop to a system restore point, I had created a few days ago.

    This deleted all my fingerprints, which I don't mind, but when I go to re-register my fingerprints, it says: "error: could not open impression fingerprint sensor.»

    PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS!

    Thank you.

    See European driver of Toshiba for the most recent software TrueSuite to fingerprints.
    Remove your old software of fingerprint of the computer and reinstall the new software downloaded from the site driver of Toshiba.

    Then set it up again, create fingerprints and take advantage of the laptop.

    When the download is complete, try double-clicking on the downloaded file in the normal Windows Explorer (browse your way to the file from the desktop). This should start the installation.

    If, in the Explorer window, you notice that the file seems to be missing the Firefox icon orange/blue, right click the file and select Properties.

Especially what it says under "File Type" - it must be 'program '. If this isn't the case, will have to focus on what could be the problem here.

  • Satellite U405 - S2833 Fingerprint error: could not open the sensor

    Hello, I am very new to the forums so I apologize in advance if I don't give all the necessary accurate information in this thread.

    I have a Toshiba U405-S2833 and it came with the TrueSuite Access Fingerprint Software.

    I downloaded an update a few days ago, but I don't remember if it's for Vista or Toshiba. Since then, my fingerprints were all removed from the system, and when I try re - save, I get this error message "error: could not open the sensor" I can't find the material to fix the sensor manually without going through the TrueSuite software.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    I am also having the same problem.

    My boss uses a Satellite U405-2628 fingerprinting and with the sensor TrueSuite Access Manager. It worked fine, then I updated windows and it has stopped working. I was on the updates and noticed an update of TrueSuite and thought that maybe that was messed up things.

    Then there were other issues that went past me locked out of the machine (anti-virus and loss of relationship with the field... also my fault). So I decided to wipe the machine and install fresh Vista.

    I installed everything but the TrueSuite software still not able to open the sensor. After hitting my head on it, I decided enough was enough and I restored it using Toshiba recovery disks.

    It took a few hours and here I am logged in as administrator and the TrueSuite software still cannot open the sensor. I don't know what I can do, since it is to return to the factory settings.

    As the above poster said, HELP!

    Thank you.

    ... a little later...

    Well, I managed to do work, and this can be useful for some people out there since I found no easy answers. I can't guarantee anything, and it's really complicated... so here go us.

    First, I downloaded the latest update from Toshiba (util_fingerprint_27460A.exe) and nothing has worked.
    Then I uninstalled the sensor since (click right, uninstalled) Device Manager to uninstall the driver as well (it should invite you to do so)
    Then, still in the Device Manager, I scanned for new hardware and it came with my sensor. I said to look for drivers and when he could not find, I think it gave me an option for windows search for an answer... or something like that. He came back with a link to Authentec (www.authentec.com/win7update/w7wbf32.exe, I think). So I downloaded that and installed. He rose through the device under "Biometric devices" then before... I think it's under the "Personall security device" or something like that. But alas, still no luck. So I uninstalled all the device from the Device Manager (taking care of uninstalling the driver as well) and of the TrueSuite software. Then came the break I was looking for.

    Online research I came across this page... http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?action=download&driverid=1194755. I had the chance before to DriverGuide.com so I thought what the heck. It is a driver of HP for the same sensor and it is dated 2006. So I downloaded and installed. Still nothing...

    Disgusted, I thought, well let's try to install util_fingerprint_27460A.exe on top of that. So I did, restarted and I couldn't believe my eyes when he said to connect and register fingerprints not seriously. And so I did. I hope this helps people, I don't really know how the sensor I so messed up, but I'm glad it worked.

    Yet one thing... and this may be important. When I took TrueSuite first after doing all this, he told me that the storage of fingerprints was full... or something in that sense. So I clicked the button remove all traces of fingers button and it I would like to register my fingerprints. I'm starting to wonder if that was all I had to do in the first place... Guess I'll never know.

    Good luck.

    Hello

    Was the HP works well before game console? If Yes, then do you remember any hardware/software changes, after which the problem started?

    Method 1: I would say you put the computer to boot and then check if the problem is caused by any third-party application.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Method 2: I would say as you uninstall and reinstall the HP game console and check to see if it helps:

  • JavaLoader error: could not open the file

    I developed a small application and I'm trying to install it in my camera (Curve 8900) using the javaloader. I used Blackberry plugin for eclipse to develop my app and it works very well in the Simulator. I got the shape of keys BB to sign the application and all of the APIs are now signed.  the javaloader that I use is the one in the eclipse installation folder:

    C:\eclipse clasic\plugins\net.rim.ejde.componentpack4.2.1_4.2.1.19\components\bin

    I use this version because I used to develop the small JRE 4.2.1 application in eclipse.

    and the command is: javaloader.exe u load myapp.cod

    I get just the error: error: could not open the file and nothing is copied to the device.

    The connection is good because I am able to see the device help info: javaloader-u deviceinfo

    I have just the knowledge base on the development for BB and it's my first show stopper...

    Thanks in advance for your help

    This is the solution... I managed to install the application without delay!

  • Power error: could not open the file exists

    This weekend a partition containing my virtual machines VMWare has been accidentally deleted by the Acronis backup software
    I have rebuilt the partition and re-assigned the same drive letter.
