When I run SplashID 6, it asks me to Merge users. What does this mean?
SplashID 6 creates a new user database tied to your email address to provide unified sync across all your devices. So when you run version 6 for the first time, it offers to merge your old users into one new database in case you had one user for iPhone, one for iPad, 1 for BlackBerry, etc. In most cases, you will only want to merge one user - the main one you used in version 5. If the data was the same in multiple user accounts, then you only need to merge one (main) user, instead of merging them all and ending up with duplicates. To do this, just select the main user, click Merge, then Done.
If you have multiple users with different sets of records from each other and you want to merge them together in version 6, select user 1, click Merge, then select user 2, click Merge, etc, until you are done merging users and then click Done.
If you fail to merge the correct user and find your data missing when you get into SplashID 6, don't worry - you can still import the backup VID data from the auto-backup folder from version 5:
Windows: DocumentsSplashDataSplashIDBackup
Mac: ~/Documents/SplashID/Backup//
I just purchased SplashID and need a registration code. Where do I find it?
When you purchase the software online, an order confirmation email is immediately sent to you (the email you gave in the purchase form) containing your registration code. The registration code will begin with the letters SDXU, SDBB, SWBB or SWXU. Enter it exactly as it appears, and the trial software will be converted into a registered version.
I installed SplashID on a new handheld/desktop and it's asking me for my registration code. http://wvnvhu.xtgem.com/Blog/__xtblog_entry/19089604-1-blocker-1-4-8-oz#xt_blog. Where can I find it?
If you installed SplashID on a new handheld or desktop, you can find your existing registration code on the old device as follows:
Desktop
Launch SplashID Desktop, then select About SplashID Desktop from the Help Menu. Your registration code will be displayed in the dialog. It will start with SDXU, SDBB, SWBB or SWXU.
Handheld
Launch SplashID on the handheld, then select About SplashID from the menu. Your registration code will be displayed in the dialog. It will start with SDXU, SDBB, SWBB or SWXU.

SplashID won't accept my registration code. Why not?
Make sure you are entering the correct registration code, and not your order number. The registration code should begin with the letters SDXU, SDBB, SWBB or SWXU. You may want to try entering the code without the dashes. Also, make sure there are no spaces before, after, or within the code. Also, make sure you are not confusing your registration code with your password. The registration code only needs to be entered once. The password is a word you define and must be entered each time you launch SplashID.
How much do upgrades cost?
The SplashID 6 upgrade costs $9.95. Because of all the enhancements that were made in SplashID 6, you will be asked to purchase an upgrade from your version 4 or 5 license.

Can I use SplashID on multiple handhelds and/or desktops?
You may use SplashID on multiple computers/handhelds. The registration code is not tied to a specific device. The license is per user, so you may install it on all of the computers/handhelds that you use.
Why is SplashID Safe asking for my email address during setup?
With version 6, SplashID introduced unified desktop sync, so you can synchronize your data across multiple mobile device platforms - iPhone, iPad, Android and BlackBerry.

I am having trouble synchronizing - troubleshooting tips.
There are 4 main reasons why sync would fail in SplashID for BlackBerry:

- On the right side, select 'Add-ins.'
- Check the box that reads 'SplashID Intellisync Add-in,' then click OK.
- On the right side, select 'Synchronize.'
- Check the box that says 'Run add-in actions.'
- Click the Synchronize button to perform a sync.
- You need to set the password the same on the handheld as it is on the desktop. The passwords must be identical in order to sync.
- The incorrect BlackBerry PIN is selected in the user menu of the SplashID desktop. Make sure the PIN matches that which is displayed at the bottom of the BlackBerry Desktop Manager window when the device is connected.
Is SplashID compatible with the BlackBerry Storm?
