Installing applications from a computer

When you download an application to your computer, it is probably in a compressed format such as a ZIP or SIT file. If the file is compressed, you need to use a decompression utility on your computer, such as WinZip or Allume Stuffit Expander, before you install the application on your Treo.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN To install an app from your computer to your Treo, you must first install Palm® Desktop software on your computer (see Installing the desktop synchronization software).

1Windows: Drag and drop the file(s) onto the Palm Quick Install icon on the Windows desktop.

Mac: Drag and drop the file(s) onto the Send To Handheld droplet in the Palm folder.

2Select your device name from the User list, and then click OK.

3Synchronize your Treo with your computer to install the application(s) on your Treo 680.
