For some reason my iPAQ 3955 turned itself on, drained the battery completely so when I got to the machine 3 days later it was totally dead and had wiped out everything.

OK...no problem I'll restore. But I had to set up a new connection and it would not read the old backup file. I found where it stores the file and moved it to the name of the new connection, but no dice. It says it was created for another machine.

I can easily restore all the appointments, contacts from my office computer, but there were many programs etc which I need and want. How do I?

Thanks.
