PiBackup error #8018 and MemMgr.c error

I have a Visor Prism, OS 3.5.2H, and got 'Error #8018 backing up POMOCategoryDB.PDB' and an 'OK' button. This happens everytime I try to use PiBackup. I've erased, reinstalled 1.4, installed 1.6, and have CJKOS disabled and NO hacks enabled.

Also, I get a MemoryMgr.c, Line:4359, Free handle error when I try to enable PiDirect. This is a different error from the other MemoryMgr.c errors I believe. Has anyone encountered this? Any help would be appreciated

The first thing I would try is this.

Remove the MemPlug, and go into the PalmOS "Delete" app. Scroll down and see if there is an app called PiBackup or any Pi apps left over in RAM.

If there is, delete them. Then, perform a SOFT RESET.

This has happened to me with Beta4 and now Version 1.6. Once I deleted it and performed the Soft Reset, all my problems went away.

Hopefully this will help you. Please give it a try and if that does not work, mayble PI can help.

You can also go onto the Yahoo Forum where PiDeveloper frequents more often. Just go to the MemPlug home page and click FORUM.

I was hoping,
I was hoping,

GSR13, that you were right.

but nogo with my Prism. Still the same Memmgr 4359 error.

HEED,
try this so you don't lose patience and hard reset it all, again...like me.

Reset, but hold the UP button until your first screen comes up, then you can let go. Somehow, an app that gets run (called, whatever) is causing this conflict.

So far, w/v1.6, I've gotten mapopolis & splashphoto to work BUT I've never been able to restore a complete piBackup without errors.

At least I figured out that phlegm hack was causing issues AND CRASHING with memplug so I've replaced it with McPhling.

I was getting similar errors with PiBackup till I reformatted the card.

so now what?

gbgood, did you ever figure it out? I have a bunch of stuff on my module, so I'm not exactly able to reformat it. This is no fun. Oh, well. I turned it on one day, and it quit working and hasn't worked since. Maybe tomorrow I'll turn it on and it will work and continue to work from then on

Wow! PiBackup seems to be working now...it's up to 55% and still going (I have a 16 meg prism, so it'll be awhile). I couldn't delete the whole directory at once, so I deleted the contents and then the directory. PiDeveloper, do you think that this could be the same problem with PiDirect? I did like everybody said, went through deleting Pi stuff after removing the module, soft resetting, BAM 'MemoryMgr.c, Line:4359, Free handle'. Any ideas? Hey, and I really appreciate all your help with all of our problems. Maybe you can give me advice on marital problems as well?

Okay, when I try to run PiDirect, it starts to scan, then comes up with 'MemoryMgr.c, Line:4359, Free Handle' and I have to soft reset. So, after it reboots, I turn of the prism, remove the memplug, and go and delete any Pi{whatever} files (there are none). Even soft reset again for the fun of it w/o the memplug. Turn the prism off. Reinsert the memplug. Tap on PiDirect. Tap 'OK'. Check 'Disable after reset' and 'Disable during Hotsync'. Tap 'Enable'. Try to go back to applications, 'Scanning', FatalAlert...same error. Can I reproduce it? It happens every time I try to use PiDirect. I have files (8 files) in the PiDirect directory. I have version 3.5.2H OS and 1.6 memplug. I don't have the newest Handspring update; this has been happening long before that.

Any help you can give me would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

I was able to solve the problem after getting to my other computer (that has a working USB port), taking all data off smartmedia, reformatting smartmedia, updating software on memplug, and putting data back on smartmedia. A lot of work, but finally working now. Has anyone tried pidirect with the new version of Biblereader? Thanks for all the help PiDev

PiBackup error #8018 and MemMgr.c error

I wish I could even get as far as you folks have...

I'm still waiting (4 days) for PiTech to send my registration number.

After installing the updater on their recommendation,
PiMover does not even allow me to try the fixes mentioned
in previous posts.

I ordered PiDirect (still don't have it),
hoping that would jog MemPlug to life.

Anyway, so far my MemPlug does nothing.

PiDeveloper,

Thank you for sending the regCode.

I will continue to try to get MemPlug working through Pi Support.

My apologies for trying a public forum to get the problem solved.
I was hoping someone would point out a basic error in my actions.
