Installing BeatPad |
Before installing the application on your Palm device, please read the license agreement ("license.txt") included with the software. Installing the software signifies your acceptance of this agreement.
Depending on which version of Palm Desktop you have on your desktop computer and whether it is a Mac or PC, the "install" feature may be part of the "Palm Desktop" application, or the "Hot-Sync Manager". Refer to the documentation that came with your Palm handheld to find where the 'install' command is. Another option is placing the ".prc" and ".pdb" files into the "files to install" folder/directory on your desktop computer. This should be found in the "users" folder/directory with your Palm Desktop software.
Select "install" and locate the .prc and .pdb files on your hard drive. Then do a hot-sync with your hand-held, and BeatPad will appear in the unfiled catagory of your Palm applications. If you had the BeatPad 0.3 demo already installed, the full application will replace it and be filed in whatever catagory you had it saved in. BeatPad (including the database of 32 patterns) will use approximately 74K of your Palm Handheld's memory. Enjoy!
The newer BeatPad 1.0 Demo (BeatDemo.prc) can happily co-exist on your Palm handheld along with the full BeatPad application. This way you can beam a copy of the demo to your friends, or any Palm users you run into.
