Palm 700P Upgrading from another Palm OS device

Upgrading from another Palm OS® device
[ * ] NOTE If you are setting up your first Palm OS device, skip ahead
to Connecting your Treo smartphone to your computer.
You can transfer all compatible applications and information from your
previous Palm OS device to your new Treo™ 700P smartphone. This
includes your calendar events, contacts, memos, and tasks, as well as
your application settings and any compatible third-party applications
and files.
When you install the desktop software from the Palm Software
Installation CD, some third-party applications may be quarantined
because they are not compatible with the Palm OS® software version
5.4.9 on your new Treo smartphone. Quarantined files are not installed
on your smartphone, nor are they deleted; these files are placed in a
new folder on your computer: C:\Program Files\Palm\device
name\PalmOS5 Incompatible Apps. (On some systems Palm may be
replaced with palmOne.)
Tip
If you have trouble
upgrading, including
finding the location of
quarantined files, see
Upgrading.
Tip
Some third-party
utilities allow you to
back up your old
device’s information
onto an expansion
card and then transfer
the info to your Treo
700P smartphone. We
do not recommend
this method because
any incompatible
applications are also
transferred to your
smartphone.
