On a Windows computer, you can also access palmOne™ Quick Install by selecting the Quick Install

icon in Palm® Desktop software or on the Start menu in the Programs folder.

Installing applications

Your Treo™ 650 smartphone comes with several built-in and ready to use applications. You can also install any of the bonus software included on the Software Installation CD as well as other third-party Palm OS® applications, such as business software, games, and more. To learn more, go to www.palmOne.com/software.

When you download an application to your computer, it is probably in a compressed format such as a .zip or .sit file. If the file is compressed, you need to use a decompression utility on your computer, such as Winzip or Unstuffit, before you install applications on your Treo.

These instructions tell you how to install basic .prc (Palm OS application) and .pdb (Palm OS database) files onto your Treo. Some Palm OS software uses an installer or wizard to guide you through the process. Consult the documentation that came with the software for details.

Installing applications from the Internet

You can install Palm OS applications directly from the Internet, using the Web browser. When you download an application, it automatically installs on your Treo. Remember: Palm OS applications have .prc or .pdb at the end of their file names.

1.Open the Web browser (see “Viewing a web page” on page 86).

2.Go to the page that contains the link to the application you want to download.

3.Press Left or Right to highlight the link to the file, and then press Center to initiate the download process.
