Palm Desktop software
Palm Desktop software includes the same main applications as your
handheld: Daily Calendar (Date Book), Contact List (Address), Task
(To Do List), and Note (Memo Pad). You can use the HotSync feature
of this software to back up and exchange data between your handheld
and your computer. It is a good idea to back up your data in case
something happens to the data on your Visor handheld. Changes you
make on your handheld or Palm Desktop software appear in both
places after you synchronize.
With Palm Desktop software, you can do the following:
Work with your Visor handheld applications on your computer.
Palm Desktop software duplicates the Daily Calendar (Date
Book), Contact List (Address), Task (To Do List), and Note (Memo
Pad) applications on your handheld, so you can view, enter, and
modify any data stored on your handheld.
Back up the data stored on your handheld with HotSync
technology and synchronize the data on your Palm Desktop
software. Synchronization is a one-step procedure that ensures
your data is always safe and up-to-date. See Exchanging and
updating data: HotSync operations” in Chapter 5 for details.
Import and export data, so you can easily transfer data from other
desktop applications into any of your main applications. See
“Importing data” in Chapter 2 for more information.
Print your Palm Desktopinformation on any printer.
