Bug Fixes
Fixed crash which occurred when closing an account when more than one account is open and a view redraws during the close process.
Fixed bug where password wasn't updated correctly after editing, so if you did a switch account after a user account edit and chose that account, it used the old password
Fixed crashes which occurred after a link was removed
Added support to prompt user if there is a password when we open a Primary Account
We now save and close changes in Activity Window before opening preferences dialog, since hitting cancel in prefs dialog causes controls in Activity Window to be recreated which basically clears the Activity Window
Fixed bug where Export of activities crashes when the Date Shutter is not opened.
Fixed problem where view underneath new text view remains active after the text view opens, cause by Nav services sending activate event to beneath view when it closes, but event loops doesn't process until later.
Fixed problem where saving layouts in Contact List View didn't save column positions/sizes. This did work correctly in List View.
Fixed bug where if a bad value is entered in Page Layout dialog for labels, the modal alert which appeared could not be dismissed. We now use a standard alert to fix this double-modal problem.
Background images now print in Month View under OS X
Fixed bug where events didn't print out on Month Calendars if there was a background picture.
Fixed bug in Month View where clicking on a day header didn't reset links in Activity Window if the Activity Window was already open with links
Fixed bug where if you drop a contact into the Mutliday view right at the current time, the drop was discarded.
Fixed bug in Month View where clicking in the heading for a particular does not work if the date placement is in position 3.
We now save a contact just prior to dialing so any last minute phone number changes are reflected in the dialing box.
3.08 mirror files will now be converted to normal non-mirror files

Conduit Fixes
Fixed bug when saving categories, priorities, custom fields so the Server doesn't reject a second update as updating an old record which causes a failure.
Fixed bug which caused strange sync results when more than one account was being synced
We now process Organizer's Assigned/Done to-do status as completed on the Palm Pilot. We used to only process Organizer's Completed status as completed on the Palm.
