Errrors Opening FM13 Database with FM GO

I am having an issue with mailing a working database from FM Pro 13 to my iPad with FM GO. I get a message about being unable to open the database due to some invalid format (database is damaged and cannot be opened). This database works fine on my MAC and PC and I have tried all of the recover options I could think of. After multiple recover and sends, I sometimes get a working copy.. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Email can do funny things to FM files.  Have you tried zipping the file before sending?

Awesome, I dumped the database into DropBox to move it over instead of email and it worked!

Thanks a ton!

I don’t think I’ve seen this suggestion before, way to think outside the Dropbox. :)
