How do I know if my Act! database is corrupted?

If you suspect that your ACT! database is corrupted, there are several signs that you can look for to confirm your suspicions. Here are some common indicators that your ACT! database may be corrupted:

  • Errors when opening the database: If you are unable to open your ACT! database or receive an error message when trying to open it, this could be a sign that your database is corrupted.
  • Slow performance: If your ACT! database is running slower than usual or taking longer to perform tasks, this could be a sign of database corruption.
  • Missing data: If you notice that data is missing from your ACT! database or that data is not saving correctly, this could be a sign of corruption.
  • Unexpected shutdowns: If your ACT! database crashes or unexpectedly shuts down, this could be a sign of database corruption.
  • Inability to perform certain functions: If you are unable to perform certain functions in Act, such as creating new contacts or scheduling appointments, it could be due to database corruption.
  • Unexpected behavior: If your Act database is behaving unexpectedly, such as freezing or crashing, it could be a sign of database corruption.

If you are experiencing any of these issues, it is important to take immediate action to diagnose and repair any database issues to prevent further damage. It is recommended to back up your database before attempting any repairs or modifications. Please seek assistance from Kim; she can help!
