Hi all,

Hope this is the right forum to ask about this. I thought I'd update my PDA's operating system (from A05 to A06). It's a Dell Axim X30 and here's the page with the update info: http://tinyurl.com/ctlap

I backed everything up. I did a regular sync with ActiveSync and a full backup, and I made a ROM backup/drive image. Then I ran the upgrade file.

Everything went fine, until I came to restore my data. ActiveSync wouldn't let me. Instead it says that the backup file was created with a different type of mobile device. So it appears that I can't restore my data. I could restore the drive image, but I don't really want to do that. Can anyone help me, please?! :)
