Desktop software installation

If you are having trouble installing the desktop software, you may have the wrong version of the software or some of your computer’s resources may be unavailable.

TIP The Palm Software Installation CD installs software that lets you synchronize using Palm® Desktop software (included) or Microsoft® Outlook® for Windows (sold separately). If you want to synchronize using a different personal information manager (PIM), you must install a third-party solution. Contact the PIM’s vendor to learn if software is available for your smartphone.

Follow these steps to retry the installation:

1Make sure your computer profile includes administrator rights to install software. In large organizations, these are usually granted by the system administrator.

2Restart your computer.

3Quit any active applications, including virus scanners and Internet security applications.

4Make sure you’re installing the software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your new smartphone.

Other versions of the desktop software may not work with this Treo smartphone.

5Insert the Palm Software Installation CD to restart the installation.

IMPORTANT Always use the same language for your Treo smartphone, your operating system, and your desktop software. Otherwise, you may lose information or have difficulty with synchronization. Support is not provided for mismatched language setups.
