accidently restored from backup
I think that my cat jumped on the computer and somehow magically restored my Axim to a backup from October 2005 using ActiveSync. The biggest problem is that I use the PDA to keep track of hours I spend on client's projects and have lost a few months worth of hours worked (depending on when I billed them last). In ActiveSync, it doesn't look like automatic backup is turned on, so I can't imagine that I still have a more recent backup laying around somewhere. Is there anywhere I can look to try to get the data back?

Without a backup, I think that stuff is gone, unless it is synchronized. Run Activesync. Good idea to backup backup weekly and keep the latest backup on a storage card.

By any chance, would you have backed up you PC (data files) in the past? If so, and if you included your "My Documents" folder you shuld be able to restore from that.
