How to synchronize
You can synchronize your handheld with your computer in the following ways:
•
Wirelessly using Bluetooth® technology on your handheld
• Using the sync cable attached to your handheld and your computer
• Using your handheld’s infrared
(IR) port
• Connecting to your company’s network, either wirelessly or using a cable (Windows only)
The first time you synchronize, you must use the sync cable or your handheld’s
IR port. If you followed the instructions to synchronize during initial setup
, you’ve already covered
this requirement.
To synchronize, HotSync
®
Manager must be active. HotSync Manager was installed when you
installed Palm® Desktop software
; if you didn’t install Palm Desktop software, you don’t have
HotSync Manager on your computer.
On a Windows computer, you know HotSync Manager is active when its icon appears in the
lower-right corner of your screen. If the icon is not there, turn it on by clicking Start, and then
selecting Programs. Navigate to the palmOne folder, and select HotSync Manager.
On a Windows computer, Palm Desktop software includes both palmOne™ Media, which you can
use to transfer photos and videos to your handheld, and palmOne Quick Install, which installs
applications (PRC or PDB) for use on your handheld when you synchronize.
On a Mac computer, use the Send To Handheld droplet to transfer photos and videos
and install applications on your handheld when you synchronize.
When you transfer a file to your handheld through synchronization, the file, such as a video, may
be converted for best use on (optimized for) your handheld.
