This update addresses an incompatibility discovered between the 64 MB Backup Card Plus and Zire 71 and Tungsten Series handhelds. The incompatibility creates a condition where backed-up data cannot be restored.
This update replaces key application files on the 64 MB Backup Card Plus and cannot be reversed once applied. However, the update will not delete nor modify any previously backed-up data on the card.
Once the update is complete, the backup data on the card can be successfully restored, and successive backups can be restored without issue.
Important: This update is ONLY for users of Zire 71 and Tungsten C, T, T2, or T3 handhelds who use the 64 MB Backup Card plus. Applying the update to other handhelds and/or to other expansion cards was not tested and may cause loss of functionality.
If you are a Windows user, follow these steps:
Ensure your device is fully charged.
Ensure the backup card has at least 200K free and is inserted into the device.
Download the BackupPlusUpdate.zip file
Extract the BackupPlusUpdate.zip file using a standard unzip utility. Note the location where the directory/folder is extracted.
Launch the Palm Quick Install application on your desktop computer.
Ensure that the correct user name is selected in the User list.
Click the Add button.

On your device, launch the BPlusUpd application from the "home" application launcher screen. Do not remove the card during the update process.
A dialog box will confirm when the update is complete. Once complete, you should safely eject the backup card.

Change "Delete From" to the backup card, tap once on BPlusUpd in the list of applications, then tap the Delete button. Confirm your selection in the Delete Application dialog box to finish.
