Ok,


This is going to be the only way to restore the device to before the library program, since you are having the home button problem:


1. On the desktop go to C:Program Files\Palm\User\Backup (The user folder could be your name or SR depending upon how it was originally configured -don't worry makes no difference as long as you know it's the backup directory). Make a copy of this backup folder and store it to your desktop.


2. Delete all of the files in the original backup folder.


3. Hard Reset the T5. Be certain that the hard reset took to where there is no data in it at all.


4. Hot Sync - this will restore the PIM data only to the handheld.


5. You can then proceed to add back in any additional programs from the backup copy on your desktop by simply double clicking on them. Do not restore anything your not certain what it is or what program it belongs to.


Then you can install Filez onto the handheld and next time an errant program leaves behind a remant that is causing similar problems to you can delete it.


You may want to try a program called Uninstall for Palm. Unlike the Palm Delete option uninstaller for Palm will keep track of all the programs and their corresponding files so that when you get ready to delete a program or a trial - it clears all of the remants.


If your not certain about some of the files that can be restored from the copy on your desktop - post back. I should know most of them.
