How do I see which version I have?
You can check this from "Preferences > About".
How do I upgrade without loosing my tasks?
The correct procedure to install the latest upgrade (and
keeping your previous tasks) is:
-
Close StarReminder
from the tray icon.
-
Install the latest
upgrade, overriding the previous installation in the
same installation folder.
-
Run StarReminder
again.
How do I configure the SMTP settings to
receive email reminders?
Type (avoid typing mistakes) your SMTP information in the
entry boxes.
if your SMTP server requires authentication (most of the
SMTP servers do), you should check the "My server requires
authentication" option .
Make sure that the e-mail address you type in the "From
address" entry box exists and it is valid.
You can find this information in your e-mail client program.
For example, if you are using Outlook Express, go to
Tools > Accounts > Your Account name >
Properties...
From the dialog box choose the "Servers" tab.
A similar menu is used in most of the e-mail client
programs.
Click on the "Send test e-mail" button. A test e-mail will
be sent to e-mail address typed in the "From address" entry
box.
If you receive the test email, the program is ready to send
e-mail reminders automatically.
SMTP Troubleshooting
Problems while testing may occur by one of the following
reasons:
-
Mistyped or invalid
SMTP settings
Make sure that there are no space characters.
Your e-mail address must be valid and must be from the
same email account as your SMTP host.
e.g. if your SMTP host is smtp.mail.com then your "From
address" e-mail should be from the same account:
yourName@mail.com is VALID
yourName@anotherSmtp.com
is INVALID
-
Message blocked by
a Firewall (software or hardware)
Set your Firewall options to allow StarReminder to have
Internet access.
-
Your SMTP Server is
not responding at that moment or you are not connected to
the Internet
Send an e-mail to your e-mail address using your e-mail
client, in order to verify both cases.
If you still have problems, we can help if you send in an
email attachment the StaReminder.pfc file located in
program's folder.
Note about the SMTP port number:
The program uses the default SMTP port (25). If you must use
another port, edit the "Port=25" entry under the
"Preferences" section in the StarReminder.INI file.
Which files do I need to backup?
StarReminder stores its data inside the "StarReminder" folder under the
"My Documents" folder in a file called "StarReminder.dat". It also
keeps a backup file inside the "Backup" folder under the same location. Any
backup plan that takes care to save your "My Documents"
folder will also backup StarReminder's files and all your
configured tasks and reminders.

|
I sent you an email to request support, but I haven't had
any response.
We reply to all email requiring for support with
priority to the registered users. Common reasons why you did
not get an answer are:
- Your email spam filters have blocked our answer email.
Please check your email blocking rules.
- You have mistyped your email address. Please check the
email address.
- Your email was blocked by our email filters. Please resend
your question.
|
How do I send you a screenshot of a technical problem that I
see?
A picture is worth 1000 words,
they say. If you see something is wrong with the program,
press the "Print Screen" button on the keyboard.
You have now placed a screenshot in the clipboard.
You can now go to Microsoft word or to Microsoft Paint (Start->Accessories->Paint),
PASTE the image in a new file and send that file to us.

|
When trying to
install the program, I get a remark about an "unknown
publisher".
 This remark automatically comes out from windows XP
whenever you download programs from the internet and the
program is not "digitally signed by an established
authority". The procedure to "digitally sign" a program is
very
expensive and not used by mid/small sized companies.
Only big companies can afford to digitally sign their
programs. Therefore,
the majority of the programs available for download, will
also show this message.
|
You can safely ignore that message for our products
that are downloaded from our official download locations. |
Whenever you download
programs from the internet you should make sure you download
them from their original site. For example, you must avoid
downloading programs from other users via a p2p file sharing
utility.
The "official" download
locations for our software are:
StarMessage screensaver:
http://download.starmessage.gr/STARMSG.EXE
The StarMessage Diary:
http://download3.starmessage.gr/stardiary.exe
StarReminder:
http://download5.starmessage.gr/starreminder_setup.exe
|
Do you have an
agent that resells the program in my country?
Currently, our programs are distributed electronically (via
downloads) and the payments are done online. These two
options allows us to "distribute" our products virtually to
the whole planet, while maintaining a very low price from
which our customers benefit.
|
Does your software run on MacOS,MacOSX / Macintosh /Apple
computers?
As you can see both in
our main product pages and in our ordering pages, our software is designed
to work on Windows operating system. There are no planned
versions for MacOS and Macintosh computers. If you have a
windows simulation program installed on your apple computer,
you can try the free version of our program to see if its
runs on Macintosh.
