Third-party applications

On rare occasions, third-party applications can cause conﬂicts on your Treo. Third-party applications that modify wireless features may require extra troubleshooting.

If you recently installed an application and your Treo seems to be stuck, try the following:

1.Perform a soft reset (see page 131).

2.If the problem persists, perform a system reset (see page 131).

3.Delete the most recently installed application from your Treo (see page 103).

4.If the problem persists, perform another system reset.

5.Delete other third-party applications one at a time until you eliminate the problem.

6.If none of the steps above are possible, you may wish to perform a hard reset (see page 132). Then, 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 any applications you just removed, delete the ﬁle(s) from the Backup folder. Then, perform a HotSync operation to restore your data and applications.

Remember, not all third-party applications were written with the Treo keyboard and 5-way navigation in mind. You may encounter strange behavior or errors in these applications if you use the keyboard and navigation control.
