Before updating, you need to determine which version of Pocket Tunes you are currently using. You can do this by opening Pocket Tunes on your Palm device, tapping the "Menu" icon (or pressing the menu key on the keyboard), selecting the "Help" menu, and then selecting "About Pocket Tunes". Your version number will be displayed on that screen. If you are using a prior version (Version 1.x or 2.x), then you must purchase an upgrade to the latest version before you can update.

1. Download the latest version from www.pocket-tunes.com/download.html. If you have a PC running Windows, download the English Windows Installer. If you have a Macintosh or other operating system, download the English Zip File.
2. Check the "About Pocket Tunes" screen in the "Help" menu and write down your registration code before updating your software. You should keep your registration code somewhere safe in case you ever need to reinstall Pocket Tunes.
3. DO NOT uninstall or delete your current version of Pocket Tunes or you will lose your settings and playlists.
