The virtual names don't (and should not) exist on these newer Palm devices. You can put the databases there manually, and integrate their records, or find an on-Palm app that requests records from the Classic database structure, but they're not there by default. > Likewise, the AddressDB, DatebookDB, etc. databases show up in Filez > on the treo itself.

Launch Contacts, and make sure all of your contacts are still listed (and they should be). 3. Using pilot-xfer, try to fetch AddressDB.pdb from the device (it will fail, because AddressDB.pdb no longer exists). 4. Try to sync to J-Pilot (Address, Datebook, etc. will fail to fetch, as in my example). 5. Restore those "Classic" databases to the device from your backup. 6. Repeat steps 2-4, and see if it behaves differently. On my device, I don't have AddressDB, DatebookDB and friends, because I've never launched an app _on the Palm_ that requested records from these on-Palm applications. Launching a desktop conduit (J-Pilot, pilot-link's tools, KPilot, gnome-pilot, etc.) that requests these databases will fail every time. -- David A.
