Subject: [icon-discuss] restoring the back up?

Hi Jenny:

It just occurred to me that I should probably confirm how to
restore before
I try it. I'm assuming that I can go to utilities, select back
up, and then
select the date that I want to restore and press the select
key?  Is this
correct???

Okay, you didn't lose all your data. Looks like you just
reflashed your
unit. Did you press any other keys when you did the reset?
Either way, if
you've added nothing since updating to 1.1, restore your latest
backup and
you should be good to go.



You might have to redownload some podcasts and articles in RSS,
depending on
what you had compared to the default feeds, how the databases
match, etc,
due to the fact that RSS now cleans up after you, and matches
what's on the
hard drive to the RSS database. But otherwise, everything should
be
restored to normal.

Jenny:

I was trying to access a wireless connection in the hotel. The
BP saw the
connection but I had to open the browser in order to pay for
usage.  When I
opened the browser and clicked on the link to make payment, the
BP
completely stopped talking. I did a reboot using Pound, Star,
and Program 1
but when the machine came back up, it still wasn't talking. I
waited
several minutes and got no speech nor would it turn off using the
apps key.
So, Finally, I took the cover off and pressed the reset button.
When the
unit came back up, it was speaking at the default speed (I had
it speaking
much faster), and all of my data, and settings were gone. Even
the rss
feeds that I had deleted were back and the ones that I added were
gone.  So,
basically, it went back to the factory settings. Fortunately, I
am still
running 1.1. But that's where I am at this point. Any
suggestions?  Oh, I
just checked the folders under file explorer. There ar 18 listed
and when I
go into the music folder my music is still there. However, when
I go to the
music player the list is empty.  What to do next??



Thanks,

Tamara

What was happening before the reset? in other words, why was it
necessary
for you to do one? Not saying you were wrong in doing it,
rather, just
wonder if the cause of it has anything to do with what happened.
Also, what
happens now when you open your hard drive in File Explorer?
What's listed?

Hi List:

Earlier this morning I posted a question about my reset of the BP
and how
everything was loss. All of my books, my rss info, my email, all
settings,
etc. Can anyone tell me if this can be retrieved by restoring
one of the
backups? Also, would there be a problem if I restored a backup
that was
generated before I upgraded?  Any info is much appreciated.



Thanks,

Tamara
