Data Backup and File Transfer

In addition to synchronizing data, your can use Windows CE Services to back up and restore Palm-size PC data, to copy and move files between your Palm-size PC and desktop computer, and to install and remove software on your Palm-size PC.

Backing Up and Restoring Data

It is a good idea to use Windows CE Services to regularly back up your Palm-size PC data on your desktop computer. If your Palm-size PC data is ever corrupted or lost, you can restore the data from the backup file on your desktop computer. A backup file contains all the files, Pocket Outlook data, and RAM-based programs that are in Palm-size PC memory.

To back up Palm-size PC data

On the Mobile Devices window, click on the toolbar, or click Tools and then Back Up Now. To make settings that tell the Palm-size PC what it should do when backing up data, click Tools and then Back Up/Restore to display the Back Up/ Restore Properties dialog.

When you restore Palm-size PC data, all data currently in Palm-size PC memory is replaced with the last backup you made. If there are files in Palm-size PC memory that you do not want replaced, drag them from the Explorer window in Windows CE Services to your desktop computer. See “Copying Files” on the next page for information about how to do this.

After restoring Palm-size PC data, turn off your Palm-size PC, remove it from the cradle, and then reset it. See the separate Hardware Manual for information about resetting your Palm-size PC.
