*************************
* 8  - Troubleshooting  *
*************************


If you have a problem with a Unlock key:

1_
Make sure you have correctly entered the right Purchase key and PDA key(do not mix-up "i" with "1" or "s" with "5"). We don't use "o", only "0" (zero).

2_
When you finally type your Unlock key, don't use minus ("-"). The blocks of characters are automatically separated by a space.

3_
Some applications as TweakUser, FirstBase, HackMaster... may create conflicts with Lock'Em Up and prevent the registration. 
One solution is to make a hard-reset, install Lock'Em Up, register, and then re-install your program

4_
The games need some free space to work fine and to save registered code in the memory. So check free space available.

5_
Check our website site for the latest version


if your problem wasn't solved by these previous notes, please feel free to re-contact us

in order to help you the best we can, be as much specific as possible providing:
* which model of palm do you have? 
* which version of OS?
* what is yours Purchase & PDA keys ?
* Do you have other program like "hackMaster" installed on your palm?
