how to try JPluck & Plucker Desktop?
I had originally setup Plucker Desktop then found JPluck. Since I have found Plucker Desktop to be slow, I wanted to try JPluck and see if it was faster.
When I install JPluck at the very end it tells me there was an error installing a sync dll and to uninstall any other Plucker sync software first (presumably Plucker Desktop). However, if I uninstall Plucker Desktop, won't I lose all my current site entries and settings? How can I either import those into JPluck or at least retain them in Plucker Desktop so that I can try JPluck? Thanks! |

Suggestion - try shutting down Palm's HotSync, then install JPluck. I think I had a similar problem the first time I installed JPluck and so now I always shut off HotSync before I install the updates. I haven't had any problems since. And I haven't had to uninstall Plucker (which I no longer use). JPluck is SO much faster with my modem connection.
I did not import anything from Plucker to JPluck. I didn't know how. I think I just modified JPluck's defaults for new documents, then copied and pasted URLs from Plucker. Not fast, but it worked. Also, click on File, Showcase to see the sites already set up. It's a great starting point. |

As for getting your plucks from Plucker Desktop into JPluck I think you're going to have to do that via cut and paste, I don't know of a conversion script. I've completely uninstalled Plucker Desktop and just use JPluck now. I wish that JPluck had some of the features that PD has, table support for one, but it is noticably faster and I've gotten used to the way it works. Good luck! |
