substitute for Sidekick 98?

[ted02]

I have been using the starfish software sidekick 95, then updated to sidekick 98. now the company is no longer providing tech support fotr these old programs. I have a program that is loosing its ability to function , unless I reboot. I would like to obtain a new, copy of a working sidekick 95, 98, so I can continue to use my database of 750 customers and their information. Help. Ted Cooper

Ted02, if you find Sidekick 95 or 98 software, I'd love to know where. Sidekick 95 was bundled with my last laptop and I got a free upgrade online just in time, but now my computer's failing and I want to take Sidekick with me to my next computer. Help!

Dear Ted02, RachelC and jpae,

I'm joining your company, i.e. I'm looking for Sidekick 98, as well. Did anyone find where to get a copy of Sidekick 98? Please reply to tradix@rcn.com.

Many thanks in advance. Lev

Hi, MCMikey! Thanks for the tip. I've seen this site; a friend who knows more about these things than I tried to download the file with no success. Maybe others have had success????

Here's the link, the trouble for a lot of you is, you can't get it 'cause it's in a hidden folder. Open 'My Computer', Go to the Views menu, and click 'Folder Options' (Win98 Users, I think it's just 'Options' for Win95ers out there) Go to the 'View Tab, and select "Show all Files" Close the window, and you should be set to download this thing. If ya have a problem, I'm a tech by trade, and if you want a little help, email me at "chrishall6@juno.com" I'll be happy to give you a hand.

The File's located at:
ftp://ftp.zdnet.com/pcpro/download/swlib/app/apppim/sdkick.zip

Just past the link into the "Address:" line on your browser.

Back Again,

If you're looking to buy, you can find Sidekick '99 (Last version Starfish put out, as far as I know) right here. Price tag of $89, but it's supposed to be in original shrink wrap with all the manuals and stuff. Good Luck
