Installing applications

Your Treo 680 comes with several built-in and ready-to-use applications. You can also install additional applications, such as business software, games, and more. The Palm Software Installation CD includes several bonus software apps, and you can purchase other third-party Palm OS® apps as well. To learn about applications you can add to your Treo 680, go to www.palm.com/treo680gsm.

NOTE The instructions in this section tell you how to install basic PRC (Palm OS application) and PDB (Palm OS database) files on your Treo. Some Palm OS software uses an installer or wizard to guide you through the process. For details, consult the documentation that came with the software.

Installing bonus software from the CD

The Palm Software Installation CD includes several bonus software applications that you can install on your smartphone. You can install these applications when you

install the desktop software, or you can install them later.

1Insert the Palm Software Installation CD into the CD drive on your computer.

2Click Install bonus software.

3Click the name of the application you want to install.

4Click Install (on the right side of the screen).

5Repeat steps 3 and 4 to install additional applications.

6Synchronize your smartphone with your computer to install the application(s) on your Treo.

Installing applications from the Internet

You can use the web browser on your Treo to install Palm OS files (PRC or PDB) directly from the Internet. When you download a PRC or PDB file, it is automatically installed on your Treo. If a file is compressed (ZIP or SIT files), you need to download it to your computer, expand the file, and then synchronize to transfer the expanded file to your Treo.
