Rich,

There are 2 ways you can try:
- try that command as a common user instead of root, so all of the files
in the directory where was backed up will be restored.
- specify a specific file which you want to restore using the command
like this: pilot-xfer -p usb: -i <FILENAME>, also as a common user. Each
time only a file can be restored, so it only applies to not many files
needed restore.

Hope this helpful.
- Jerry
