Important: The first time you perform a HotSync operation, you must enter a user name in the
New User dialog box and click OK. Every communicator should have a unique
name. To prevent loss of a user’s records, never try to synchronize more than one
communicator to the same user name.
4. From the Select User dialog box, choose the user name you assigned to your communicator.
The HotSync Progress dialog box appears and synchronization begins.
5. Wait for a message on your communicator indicating that the process is complete.
After the HotSync process is complete, you can remove your communicator from the cable.
Beaming information
Your communicator is equipped with an IR (infrared) port that you can use to beam information
to another Palm OS
®
device that’s close by and also has an IR port. The IR port is located on the
top of your communicator, between the power button and the ringer switch, behind the small dark
shield.
You can beam the following information between Palm OS devices:
■ The record currently displayed in Date Book Plus, the Contacts view in PhoneBook, To Do
List, or Memo Pad
■ All records of the category currently displayed in the Contacts view in PhoneBook, To Do List,
or Memo Pad
■ A special record in the Contacts view of PhoneBook that you designate as your personal
business card, containing information you want to exchange with business contacts
■ An application installed in RAM memory
You can also use the infrared port to perform HotSync operations. See the section that begins
on page 198 for details.
