Re-installing Vplanner on pocketPC/PDA?

Dykkermanden · 28th April 2006, 17:03

Hi

I thought that some of you guys might be using Vplanner and know how to solve my little problem with Vplanner (pocketPC version).

The thing is, that I left my pocket-PC without recharging it for too long, and as a result everthing was reset. So I had to reinstall Vplanner.

After reinstalling it, it comes up with the Program Install code PO-12-34-56-78-90-AB-CD. Apparently this is some kind of dummy code, and not the code I got when I originally installed it. As a result I'm not able to use Vplanner on my pocketPC, - and that sucks.

As anyone experienced anything similar and know what to do about it?

You might want to check this for updates for your PPC (well this is for HTC manufactured) where you can find upgrades that you can have persistant menomy on your PPC. Normal PPC setup, such as i.e. Qtek 2020 doesn't have persistant memory and if you loose your battery you'll also loose everything.

I had to return my Pocket PC because the first was defective, I had already installed V-Planner. I simply used the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS to re add V-Planner, then the original code worked once i reinstalled it, I'm not sure if it was because it was the identical Pocket PC or because I installed it from the add/remove programs menu, but it worked. You could try that. If you have lost your code, contact V-Planner by e-mail.

I dont know for definite but I would say that you had the same PPC back as VPlanner in all installs is very clever in that it generates the install code from the hardware.

NOPE. I returned the pocket pc to the store I bought it from but they did not have a replacement. I went down the street and bought the replacement from a different store. I'm only assuming this worked either because it was the exact same model PPC or because I reinstalled V-Planner from the ActiveSync that was still installed on my home PC or a combination of both. Since it was a legitimate re install & I paid for the program a week earlier anyway I didn't see an issue with it working for me.......

Hi,

You will need to go to the v-planner website and request a new key, I believe they will grant several of these a year at no charge to cover this type of situation or getting a new pda.
