Title: Using Older Activehome New Year's Problem
Post by: joao on January 28, 2006, 10:00:55 PM

I have been using Activehome, the older
version (with the serial connection) for
several years.  Each year on Jan. 1 all
timed activities stop until I download the
commands again, then I'm good for the year.
Until I download, the macros work if they
are tripped from a palmpad for example (but
not according to the on off schecle). I'm
using software version 1.42 Anyone else
have this pronblem? How do I make the
problem stop, andy ideas?

I have seen reports that is is due to the
way the cm11a calculated leap year. It uses
366 days. I have also seen that if you just
wait untill Jan 2 everything again starts
working. No solution has been printed here.
