    Check to make sure you have a Windows Mobile device. If you have a Palm, BlackBerry or some other device, you have to go back to download the installation software again, and choose the appropriate software for your device.

    If you are using Windows Vista, please make sure you have the latest version of “Windows Mobile Device Center” installed on your PC. Go to the following website to download and install the latest version of Windows Mobile Device Center:

  5. I am stuck in trial mode. What should I do?

    In order to install Unbound Medicine software, you must enter a valid serial number. Once entered the serial number is transferred to Unbound Medicine over the internet. If you have Internet Security software on your PC, it may block the serial number transfer, leaving your program stuck in trial mode.

    To correct the problem, please disable your internet security, and then sync your Windows Mobile device.

    If you still cannot get out of the trial mode, please contact Technical Support.

  6. I receive a message "Invalid Parameter". What does this mean?

    When the Windows 5.0 platform was released, we had to rebuild all of our programs to be compatible. Because this was such a large undertaking we rebuilt only our current applications and not all of our older ones as well. Your version of this program is no longer being sold and therefore was not updated. If you’d like to upgrade to the latest edition which is compatible please let us know, and we will offer you a 10% discount towards this purchase.


    If you are installing from a CD and have a serial number for the latest version available please try to download the latest version available on our support site below.

If you purchase one of our products, we will contact you when your subscription is in need of renewal with specific instructions on how to renew.

  13. How do I download my renewal?

    Each component of Davis’s Drug Guide gets updated on a quarterly basis, however there is no set date for updates. Every time you sync your PDA, the program checks for updates. If updates are available, you will see new records being downloaded to your PDA.


    Please let us know if you have any other questions.

  15. Can I view the program on my PC?

    Any software that includes a "Web/Wireless" component includes a version of the content that is viewable through your computer’s web browser. Please note that access to these web versions are based on a yearly subscription and need to be renewed to have access after the first year.

  16. I purchased a CD but can't find the serial number. What do I do?

    We do not sell CD’s, and while some of our distributors do, we do not have any record of the serial number until it is registered by the customer. I suggest contacting the company from whom you purchased the CD to inquire about your serial number.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions.
