Well yesterday we released the database migrator for PhonePad 4 users so that they could move their data over to PhonePad 5. This required some changes to the PhonePad 5 database to make this possible.
It turns out there is a bug in the database engine we use that caused some problems. Basically it broke the ability to add users to PhonePad 5. Yikes! We have reported the issue to the database vendor but the good news is we also found a solution and fixed it.
So we are re-releasing the database migrator application as part of the first update for PhonePad 5. We have also changed the name so you don’t get the versions mixed up. It was called P5DatabaseMigrator. The new one is just called DatabaseMigrator. A slightly less unwieldy name, I think.
If you have the old migrator application already then just delete it. You won’t be needing it. Get the new one by installing Update 1 (see the next article for the link).
We apologize for this problem but it caught us off guard. Fortunately we were able to fix it quickly.
