You cannot open the the file "Web Confidential Database.pdb" on Linux or
directly on Mac
OS. The Confidential Conduit does all the necessary conversions between the Palm
OS and
Mac versions.

Why is your newer Mac not compatible with your Palm device? We recommend syncing
Web
Confidential with Missing Sync wich is compatible with the new Macs including
the Intel
Macs.
