+FASTFRANK&WANDA Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 I am trying to start paperless caching with my IQue3600. The instructions I have suggest Plucker and Spinner programs. When I try to add Plucker to my IQ3600 it always sends an error message saying there is no application to support this program. What should I do? Please reply in layman's terms as I am computer ignorant. Quote Link to comment

+wildlifewriter Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Please reply in layman's terms as I am computer ignorant. In layman's terms: You have tried to install the wrong file. Plucker has a number of different components. Some of these are for installation on your desktop machine. Some are for use on the Palm. The file which goes on your Palm device has a filename which ends with ".prc" You should download the documentation from this page, and study it carefully. -Wlw. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Might I suggest you ditch the Plucker/Spinner route and just pick up Cachemate. Its only $8 bucks and a lot easier to use. I used Plucker/Spinner at first and found it a bit unwieldy. It got to the point I was going weeks and sometimes months between updates. Cachemate is easier to use and a lot more useful. Takes about 3 minutes to do everything, including the Hotsync. Quote Link to comment
+FASTFRANK&WANDA Posted October 30, 2005 Author Share Posted October 30, 2005 I have ordered Cachemate and will attempt to give it a try. Thanx. Quote Link to comment
