Hey everyone,
So i just installed the 2012 Database right, and then when i went into the game and chose it as my database, all the teams logos dissappeared and turned to pink squares. I'm currently downloading the expansion pack to see if it does anything but I'm not sure if it will. Can someone please help me?
Thanks

If you are having troubles then obviously you didn't install the DB right 
Pink logos means you're missing files, so you either installed it wrong (most likely to the wrong directory), or - less likely - you've downloaded the 'wrong' download (for example the Public Beta to V1 update rather than the whole V1 package, in case you didn't have any before).
Download the 2011 Exp Pack would do something if you had downloaded the Exp Pack to V1 Update. But it won't work, since 2012 team files are (obviously) not in the 2011 Exp Pack.

I'm pretty sure i installed it correctly. I used uTorrent and it worked so I double clicked on it and six files came up. I double clicked the bottom one cause that was the only .exe file. The destination I installed it on was Documents, Pro Cycling Manager 2011, Database. And I'm pretty sure that worked cause the install wizard and other stuff came up and loaded and then I used that file in-game as my database, went to start a career and only like 10 out of the 83 teams had pictures..
and I'm confused with the bottom bit. You're telling me to download that Pack then you're telling me it obviously wouldn't work? Can you give me the link for whatever you want me to download? Cheers.

If you're having troubles you have not installed it correctly. What you did wrong is install it to the wrong directory. The correct directory is Program Files/Cyanide/PCM11. The My Docs folder is only for the .cdb file and the Local.cdb.
As for the bottom part, I wrote that downloading the Exp Pack would do something if you had downloaded the Exp Pack to V1 update (which I don't think you have, I assume you have downloaded a bigger pack, maybe the whole package). But I see now that I've left out the 'ing' on the word 'download', might have caused this small confusion

You've already downloaded the full package (V1), you don't need to download the Exp Pack.

Sorry I don't understand you..
Exp Pack = PCM.Daily 2011 DB (for PCM 11)
DB 2012 = PCM.Daily 2012 DB (for PCM 11)

No, it's the update from Expansion Pack (2011) to V1 (2012).

No, the .exe file automatically does that.
