Wierder and wierder. *I* am running the
older version. He's got the new version. Since I only found
Plucker about a week ago, I don't know how I got the old, and he got the new. In
any case, I haven't beamed anything at all - just tried to convert a small
website (on his laptop and on his PDA, all the while plucking my seperatly
on my hardware) - which apears to be successful. And all the necessary
things to install Plucker, JPluck, etc., even checking the HotSync conduit, and
comparing it to the File Manager (from ZLauncher). I mean, the directory exists
- Palm/Programs/Plucker, but the directory is empty.

Yes, versions could
matter. My husband runs 1.6 (I think) and I run
1.8. When I
beam plucker documents from my Clie to his, the beam is
successful and it
sees it's a plucker file, he accepts it, but when
he goes to the 1.6
plucker viewer, the documents are nowhere to be
seen. However, if we
exchange memory sticks and I copy the files
from my Clie to the right place
on his MS (/PALM/PROGRAMS/Plucker)
then swap cards again, his viewer sees
the files just fine.
Beaming used to work for us when we both ran
1.6.
(I've tried to talk him into upgrading, but he seems
resistant.)
I don't use JPluck (I use the python parser and sync
with
pilot-link) but maybe the problem we're seeing with beaming is
also
happening with JPluck.
Laugh -- I just checked the husband's Clie to
verify that it was
actually 1.6 that he was running, and it turns out it
was actually
1.2-beta8-hires. That's a bit excessive! I've
talked him into
upgrading, and now 1.8->1.8 beaming works fine. So
indeed it was
the version incompatibility causing the beaming
problem.
(And he's happy so far: "Going back from a page toplevel goes
back
to the library view. That's a nice improvement." I told
him there
are lots more nice touches like that in
1.8.)
