Just a note. Carbonite is NOT going to back you up unless you were making ACT backups or stopped SQL while carbonite was running.  Check for .zip backups that would have been made if you set up the ACT scheduler.

 

A valid ACT database will contain the .alf, .adf and file folder for the database. You don't need the pad file..

 

Here are the steps if you need them.  http://blog.acttrainer.com/?p=481

I have a similliar problem. I upgraded to a new laptop with Windows 7.  I only have an ACT 2007 CD, upgraded to 2010 via downloads. I need the base program for 2010, because the ACT 2007 disk won't install due to the new Laptop being 64 bit.

Adding a boot SSD and upgrading to Windows 7 64-bit from XP, I had to reinstall Act! 2010.  But the SAGE site no longer offered the Act! 2010 download.   I have the Serial No. and Activation Code in an email from Sage from my original purchase: I just need the download install file.  Any help will be appreciated.

I too am having a similar problem. I need to move my licece to a new computer, but I can only install the 2007 disc we have, and can figure out how to upgrade back to the 2010 version we run. Is there a place to download this upgrade again?

Re: ACT! 2010 Download - Computer Crashed - Database is backed up - program isn't

I have lost my 2010 install as well.  I have 2 copies of my 2008 install. 

I have act 2010 installed on a pc that is filled with Virus's so I put in a new hard drive and reinstalled windows on that pc.

I'm sure I can put the old Hard drive in to retrieve the serial and activation numbers, unfortuantly however I can not find the documentation for 2010 anywhere.  Can you assist me?
