I continue to not be able to access my contacts. Have had my Axim for about two months and have done about 10 hard resets. I can access contacts for a while but then when I am out and really need to access them I cannot, it just happened again today.

If I synch after the hard reset the Contacts lock up, cannot access them at all, thru any avenue.

So I have ordered a replacement two weeks ago and Dell says that it is in production.

Is there anything I can do to allow access of my contacts? Has anyone had the same problem?

Any help would be appreciated.

Tks, Ed

Never had a problem with contacts. You mentioned Hard Reset, but did you try a soft reset? Sometimes that helps with programs that seem to die.

I thought I had tried that before. I did the soft reset and it worked. Thanks. Why does this happen anyway? Just all of a sudden I cannot get into contacts.

Great site and it's just getting better.

*LOL* It's a Microsoft product...when in doubt, reboot!

Take a look at this thread:

Switcher is a brute force close of the application. It's almost a Ctrl-Alt-Del that leaves things hanging. I never use it, so I never associate it with a problem. Good catch, E B.

Had the same thing happen to my contacts. Turned it on last night and couldn't access the contact database and or add a new contact. Tried the soft reset and it worked. I do note that I used the switcher bar yesterday which, as someone else has suggested, may have contributed to the lock out.

It worked for me too!!

What program do you use instead of switcher to close pgrms?

Eagle,

I think Icbar and Wisbar are the favorite freeware programs that can be used for closing programs. A lot of people on the site also use Battery Pack.
