My PP+ opened just fine a couple of days ago and now when I try to open it I get an error message. DH tried his hand at fixing it but it has him stumped. I can't locate a direct number for Tech Support and the Solution Centere is only open M-F! Can anyone out there help me out with a direct number to Tech Support?:confused:
 
There isn't a direct number and unfortunately they are only open M-F as well 7am-11pm. Have to wait til Monday. Having issues here as well with a consultant of mine.
Have you tried completely shutting down and restarting?

I tried rebooting but Not shutting down completely. I'll give that a try now.
 
What is it exactly doing...or NOT doing?

Restarting didn't work either. When I double click on the icon, the program tries to open and then I get the following error message: An error has occurred. See the log file. C:\Program Files\pamperedPartnerPlus\workspace\.metadata/.log When DH went and looked at the log he mumbled something about it not being happy with my java script but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
 
Yeah, I think I heard about this when I've called Tech support. It mentions something like this on their voice message while you are on hold. I really don't know what to tell you. I just tried to call to see if I could hear the message again but it just say they are closed. Sorry. I guess wait til 7am on Monday. At least it is not the end of month and a day or two sending your order in won't relay delay your order since they wouldn't get to it til Monday anyway.
 
Mine has done this before and the only way I could get it fixed was by deleting the whole program and loading it back up again. I always keep everything backed up on a flash drive so when I loaded PP+ back on I put my flash drive in and restored it back on with my customer info. But I have never called Tech Support.

I REALLY hope that I don't have to delete and start over,because I'm not sure when the last time I backed it up was!:eek:
 
I was just entering the sales from my Friday show.
I did restart my computer.
Then I went to the website and clicked for updates.
Then I could finish entering my show without the error message coming up--so far so good now.
If it comes up when I enter the rest on Monday, then I'll call for help.
