Customizing HotSync application settings

For each application, you can define a set of options that determines how records are handled during synchronization. These options are called a “conduit.” By default, a HotSync operation synchronizes all files between your Acer s10 and Palm Desktop software.

In general, you should leave the settings to synchronize all files. The only reason you might want to change these settings is to overwrite data on either your Acer s10 or Palm Desktop software, or to avoid synchronizing a particular type of file because you don’t use it.

In addition to the conduits for Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, Memo Pad, and Expense, Palm Desktop software includes System and Install conduits.

The System conduit backs up the system information stored on your Acer s10, including Graffiti® ShortCuts.

The Install conduit installs applications on your Acer s10.

To customize HotSync application settings:.

1Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray.

TIP: You can also click the HotSync command on the Palm Desktop software menu bar.

2From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Custom.

3Select the appropriate user name from the list.

4Select an application in the Conduit list.

5Click Change.

6Click the direction in which you want to write data, or click Do Nothing to skip data transfer for an application.
