 INSTALLATION 

If you have version of AmiPic ShareMaster prior to 9.01 you must uninstall it before installing the newer version.
Otherwise you can istall the new build over the existing one. To start the installation process double-click on file amipicsm.exe



 REQUIREMENTS:

Hardware:                    500 MHz or faster CPU

Software:

·	Microsoft Windows 98/ME or Windows 2000/XP/Vista 
·	Internet Explorer 5.0 or later





 DOWNLOAD DIRECTORIES:

If directory you specified is not available (moved, deleted, protected or not mounted) AmiPic reverts to its default download directory. 
For example,  you may choose directory located on virtual encrypted drive (see BestCript software description on http://www.jetico.com) 
and forgot to mount this drive.


 TROUBLESHOOTING:

 a) If AmiPic cannot establish dial-up connection because of hardware failure, invalid login/password, dead line
 or other unrecoverable error it displays the error code in status bar and stops connecting attempts.

 Solution: Make sure that the valid dial-up connection is selected from drop-down list on Connection tab (if list is empty make a new connection and then select it) and login/password for this connection are typed correctly. 
 After creating a new connection or moving computer to another location (if you connect using mobile phone) make sure that it really works. Otherwise you may need to re-configure your computer, modem or connection settings.

b) If program database file called "MyDatabase.db" becomes corrupted  because of system crash or other reason AmiPic reports the error and exits on start-up. Program database is not compatible with previous versions. You need to remove it manually if problem persists.
 Solution: Manually delete the corrupted file and restart AmiPic. It should then work normally. 



UNINSTALL:

 The program is automatically removed from your hard drive during uninstall (including the registry keys). However, program database 
and some other files are not deleted to avoid loss of important data. You can manually delete the program folder after uninstall if you do not need these files.
