To prepare your computer for a modem HotSync operation:
1. Confirm that the computer modem is connected and turned on,
and that no communications applications, such as fax or telephony
software, are running on a COM port.
Note: Make sure the computer is disconnected from all
online services, such as America Online
®
(AOL) and
CompuServe
®
. This helps to avoid conflicts with the
COM port.
2. Start HotSync Manager if it is not already running, and click
Modem from the HotSync Manager menu.
