Q1. I hotsync'd, but I can't see PalmBar on my list of applications! What did I do wrong?

A1. You didn't RTFM. And since *this* is the FM (that you are presumably reading), I don't see how anyone who has this problem would even see this question. BUT, since this is the most often asked question, I'll answer it here anywayz. You need to download MobileDB or MobileDB Lite. Once you've installed the database application and the database, you can choose PalmBar from your list of databases within MobileDB.


Q2. Do you have PalmBar for ThinkDB (or any other Palm DB applications)?

A2. No. But if you want to do the port, let me know, and I'll submit it with the next release.


Q3. How do you add/modify/delete your own drinks?

A3. You need to download MobileDB. MobileDB Lite allows read-only access to databases.


Q4. It crashed. You suck.

A4. Thank you for your kind words. PalmBar is merely a database, which uses the MobileDB application. For any support questions on MobileDB, try http://www.mobilegeneration.com/


Q5. Your recipes are wrong.

A5. Yeah, it is extremely likely that the comma-delimited file I used was not "comma-correct" at some point or other, so there might have been a phase shift, rendering all following recipes incorrect. Feel free to email me, and I'll pump out a fix. If the recipes are just plain wrong... um, suck it up.


Q6. Hey! Are you the person who wrote PalmBar? (from my colleagues at work)

A6. Yes.
