Removing applications

If you decide that you no longer need an application, or want to free up memory on your Treo, you can remove applications from your Treo or an expansion card (for more on expansion cards, see pages 105-108). You can remove only applications, patches, and extensions that you install; you cannot remove the built-in applications that reside in the ROM portion of your Treo.

1.Press Applications Launcher .

2.Press Menu .

3.From the Options menu, choose Delete (/D).

4.If you want to remove an application from an expansion card, insert the card into your Treo.

5.Choose the Delete From pick list, then select the location of the application you want to remove.

6.Choose the application that you want to remove.

7.Choose Delete to finish.

8.Perform a HotSync operation to remove the application from the Backup folder on your computer.

If the application re-appears on your device, you may need to manually delete it from your computer. Locate your Backup folder on your computer (Windows: C:\Program Files\Handspring\user name; Macintosh: Mac HD\Applications\Palm\Users\user name). If you find a .prc or .pdb file for the application you just removed, delete the file from the Backup folder.

Some applications are factory-installed in your phone and cannot be deleted. These are listed with a lock icon next to them.

If you upgraded from a previous version of Palm Desktop software, your backup folder may be located in the Palm folder.

Applications deleted from your phone are kept on your computer, in the Archive folder of your user folder.
