1. I've download the file, now what?

PalmStudy downloads come in two formats .zip and .exe:

ZIP files The .zip file that you downloaded is a multi-file archive that must be unpacked before you can install the software. See Handango's Zip Help page for more information.

EXE files The .exe file that you downloaded is a Windows PC program that installs the PalmStudy files on your handheld. Simply double click the file on your PC and follow the instructions. You must do a HotSync afterwords to transfer the files to your handheld.

2. Why don't I see PalmStudy on the program launcher screen?

If PalmStudy does not appear on the program launcher screen, then the palmstudy.prc file has not be installed. Use the Palm Desktop's Install Tool to add palmstudy.prc to the install list, and then perform a HotSync. NOTE: Make sure you have the right file because there is also a file called palmstudy.pdb.

3. What does 'Installation Files Missing' error mean?

This error appears if the palmstudy.pdb file is not installed. Use the Palm Desktop's Install Tool to add palmstudy.pdb to the install list, and then perform a HotSync. NOTE: Make sure you have the right file because there is also a file called palmstudy.prc.

4. Why do a get the 'Bible database not found' error?

This error appears if the Bible database was not installed properly. For the KJV, you need to install kjvnt.pdb, and for NASB, you should install nasnt.pdb. Use the Palm Desktop's Install Tool to add kjvnt.pdb or nasnt.pdb to the install list, and then perform a HotSync.

5. How do I install smooth text display support?

You must install either the fontlib72.prc or fontlib144.prc is described on the support page.

6. Why is the font so large/small?

You probably have installed the wrong smooth text support file:
