Third-party applications

Sometimes, 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 “Performing a soft reset” on page 168).

2.If the problem persists, perform a system reset (see “Performing a system reset” on page 168).

3.Delete the most recently installed application from your Treo (see “Removing applications” on page 136).

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

5.If possible, synchronize to backup your most recent info.

6.If you’re unable to perform the steps above or the problem persists, locate your Backup folder on your computer and rename the folder (e.g. BackupOld):

Windows: C:\Program Files\palmOne\username

Mac: Mac HD\Applications\palmOne\Users\username

7.Perform a hard reset (see “Performing a hard reset” on page 169).

8.Synchronize to restore the info in your built-in applications.

9.If the problem is resolved, begin reinstalling your third-party applications one at a

time: double-click a single file in the original Backup folder that you renamed. 10.If the problem recurs, delete the last application you installed and report the

problem to its developer.

Contact the author or vendor of any third-party software if you require further assistance.

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