My Palm device resets when I try to open Weight-By-Date Mobile.
This is most likely due to a missing Weight-By-Date database on your device. Several database files are installed with Weight-By-Date (food databases, exercises, meals journal, etc.).
Many times, this happens during installation if you select the "Yes" option to "keep your existing Weight-By-Date data on the device" when Weight-By-Date is actually not installed on your device. So some database files are not installed in this case. If this is the case, then the solution is to reinstall, but select the "No" option, which will ensure that all of the database files are installed.

I have a Palm handheld and don't see the WBD Mobile icon on my device to start the program.
If you don't see the icon, the program might be in the "Unfiled" category, where new programs go that haven't been categorized. If this is the case, then tap the category list in the top-right corner of the screen and select either "All" or "Unfiled".
