Using Backup

Backup allows you to back up data files and applications from your handheld’s internal memory to a Memory Stick and to restore data back to your handheld. This feature enables you to manage the contents of your handheld’s internal memory based on your current space requirements.

NOTE: During a backup or restore process, all application buttons are disabled.

Backup function

The Backup function has two operating modes based on the scope of files to be backed up:

Complete Backup. Scope of backup files includes all data and program files, including applications and databases stored in your handheld’s internal memory.

Partial Backup. Scope of backup files only includes PIM — referring only to your basic applications. Your handheld’s basic applications include Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, Memo Pad, and Mail.

To perform a complete backup:

1Insert a Memory Stick into your handheld’s Memory Stick slot.

Make sure the card has enough free space to accommodate the intended backup file.

2In the Backup main screen, tap Complete Backup. The Complete Backup screen appears.
