I am about to throw my computer out of the door!!! I got frustrated because I couldn't update the new product list. I uninstalled and reinstalled Pampered Partner. BIG MISTAKE!!!!! I have pampered partner back on, but it won't update. It will start to update and then it asks me to put in a disk. I put in the PP disk and it just says that it can't find anything. Well, I know that we are getting an update in the change over package. If I just give up now and wait until I get that, will everything be okay. :( I am pretty new. I just had one party on PP. It had been transmitted. Is there a way to close out the party again without tranmitting it to home office? Thanks Laura
 
As long as your show was transmitted you are going to be ok. I have done something kinda like that a couple of times. I go back and forth between my desk top and lap top computers, and have backed up the wrong one. What ever you do, do not resubmit the show that was on there. Hope that helps.

Walk away and take a break. The update isn't critical yet...if it were then I would keep trying. If it doesnt work after a little bit, call technical support. Don't let it frustrate you yet. :)
