Sync your desktop organizer and your smartphone

If you want to continue using a desktop organizer to store your contacts, calendar events, and tasks—iCal and Address Book on the Mac, or desktop Outlook® or Palm Desktop by ACCESS on Windows—you have two choices:

•Sync directly with your desktop organizer, avoiding the web completely.

•Sync your desktop organizer with Google on the web, and then sync Google with your smartphone.

Both choices require you to use a third-party solution (sold separately). Go to palm.com/sync-solutionsto learn more about these third-party solutions.
