1.Install Microsoft ActiveSync 3.1 on your computer. For information on installing ActiveSync, see the booklet accompanying the ActiveSync CD.

2.Synchronize your Palm-size PC with your computer so that the information on your computer is current.

NOTE: If you have files on your Palm-size PC that you want to transfer, such as Note Taker notes and recordings, turn file conversion off in ActiveSync options so that the files stay in device format, and use the ActiveSync Explorer to copy the files to your computer.
