If the install dialog opens on every sync then something must be failing to install. For some reason the jpilot_to_install file is not being cleared. Just remove the "install file items" in the dialog. I agree that this dialog can be confusing. It was added at the request of users who would add something to be installed, not sync for a while, forget it was there, and then overwrite data when they finally did sync. I'd rather err on the safe side of data loss. Judd
