Setting up your computer

Synchronization lets you enter information on your computer (using Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook for Windows) and then efﬁciently transfer that information to your Treo. At the same time, changes you make on the Treo are transferred to Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook. Even if you manage all your contacts on your Treo, synchronization is a great way to back up your data.

Before you can synchronize, you need to install the Palm Desktop synchronization software on your computer. Even if you already own a Palm Powered device and have installed a previous version, you must install the software that comes on the CD with your Treo.
