TOPIC

    When attempting to Beam My Card (an option in the Routing button of the Names application), the MessagePad being beamed to presents a -48006 error if the MessagePad is using Newton 1.3 OS.

DISCUSSION

    This is something that Apple is currently investigating. Here is a workaround, so you can beam cards between Newton 2.0 and 1.3 OS devices.

    1) On the Newton 2.0 OS device, open the Extras drawer and tap on Owner Info.

    2) Check the owner.

    3) Tap on the routing button, and then tap on "Beam". DO NOT tap on "Beam My Card."

    4) On the Newton 1.3 OS device, open the Extras drawer, and tap on "In Box".

    5) Tap the Receive button, then tap on "Beam".
