Always use the same language for your Treo and your desktop software. Otherwise, you may lose data.

Upgrading from another Palm Powered device

To transfer all compatible applications and data from your previous device to your new Treo:

1.Perform a HotSync operation with your old device and your old desktop software to back up your data one last time.

2.Install the Palm Desktop synchronization software from the CD that came with your Treo (see page 29). During the installation process, perform a HotSync operation with your new Treo. When prompted to choose a user name for your new Treo, be sure to select the existing user name for your old device.

3.Some third-party applications may be quarantined by the HotSync Manager because they are not compatible with the Palm OS 5.2 on your Treo. Do not manually install any quarantined files (see the documentation that came with the third-party applications for more information).

4.If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset (see page 132) to remove its associated user name. Each device you synchronize with your computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize with your old device, be sure to assign it a new user name.

After upgrading, there are a few things you need to know about your new Treo:

Address Book: This application is now called Contacts. To launch Contacts, press Phone , then use the 5-way navigation control to choose Contacts.

Date Book+: This application is now called Calendar. To access this application, press Calendar .
