[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Epocrates 7 compatible with Missing Sync 4.0.3b10 !!!

[Pascal Lessard]

Hello to all,

	... and especially to all of you who had problems with Epocrates in  
the past ! As you may know, Epocrates 7 was finally released in a  
"compatible version" with the Mac (Whatever that means). I updated to  
this new version and I tried using it with Missing Sync 4.0.3b10 and it  
works reliably and quickly, as it should. All of you should upgrade  
right now !

	A few caveats. The first time I tried it, I didn't deinstall the  
previous version of Epocrates on the handheld first, and this lead to  
various crashes on the handheld. So :

1- Back-up your data first using MS, as usual.

2- Find the following files in the backup (if they exist) and save them  
to a new folder : Notes-nc-2.PDB, IDnotes-nc43.PDB. These files are  
where your notes are saved.

http://epocrates1.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/epocrates1.cfg/php/enduser/ 
std_adp.php?p_faqid=484

3- Completely remove Epocrates from the handheld following the  
procedure outlined in FAQ 631 :

http://epocrates1.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/epocrates1.cfg/php/enduser/ 
std_adp.php?p_faqid=631

I recommend using "FileZ" to double check because some files are left  
behind by the standard Delete command : I reclaimed more than 4 MB with  
it !

4- Run the Epocrates 7 installer

5- Sync with MS, making sure the Epocrates conduits are enabled

6- Reinstall the notes files you previously put aside (Notes-nc-2.PDB,  
IDnotes-nc43.PDB).

	Hope this helps.

	Yours,

				Pascal Lessard
