PalmSchedule Anomaly Warning

In the Date Book Application: If you go from the sketch page of an event to a 6-month, month, or week view, the Page menu will show the Page-Send/-Receive choices inappropriately active. Any attempt to do a Page-Send or Receive will apply to the most recently visited Sketch page, but will leave machine in an unstable state, with data-loss crash possible.

Do not attempt to do Page-Send or -Receive from these views.

If you crash from this state or another unstable state, you must do a Soft reset per the instructions in your User Guide. You should NOT lose any data.

Note: There have been problems reported regarding repeating alarms extending to a new year. Until further notice, do not set alarms to extend past the end of each year. Reported behavior includes redundantly repeating alarms and difficulty in purging information from the Datebook.
