Product Description:

In both MacOS and PalmOS, icons are extensively used to better the user experience. However, when Palm application (.prc) files are downloaded and saved on MacOS, the icons associated with the file are not automatically being prepared to be seen. It's a challenge to remember which file is what just by looking at the file names alone. With thousands of Palm applications out there, it would be challenging to differenciate one Palm app file from another. PalmIcon is exactly designed to solve this problem.

What's new in this version:

Fixed a bug that would change the file creator and file type of the file. It also revert the file creator and file type back to HotSync manager if it's set to be created by PalmIcon. So the prc file can be double-clicked to launch the HotSync manager.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

Mac OS Classic

Additional Requirements:

Mac OS 8.1 with CarbonLib

I payed for this software and now it wont work in OS 10. It cant be too hard to re-write this tiny program to work in OS X. I will be writing to the maker of this application to ask him to do so. I suggest you all do the same so it might actually happen.

expensive for a product that cannot be demo'd first...to do this function without this app- get the GREAT BackupBuddy...a FANTASTIC program...then just go to the folder: HD/applications/palm/user/backup or archive where the Hotsync manager stores the back up versions of all .prc files AND attaches the icon...both functions.
