Setting Up Your Computer for Synchronization

Before you can synchronize, the desktop sync software must be installed. You must install the

software that came with your TreoPro smartphone, even if you already have a previous

version of the desktop sync software installed on your computer.

System Requirements

Your computer must meet the following minimum system requirements:

䢇Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista (later versions may also be supported).

䢇32MB of available memory (RAM).

䢇170MB of free hard disk space.

䢇Available USB port.

䢇USB cable (included with your smartphone).

䢇Internet connection.

Installing Desktop Sync Software: Windows XP and Windows Vista

When your smartphone is in Setup Mode and is connected to your computer with the USB

cable, it automatically starts the process of setting up your computer to synchronize with your

smartphone. If you have a Windows XP computer, the desktop sync software is called

ActiveSync desktop software. If you have a Windows Vista computer, the desktop sync

software is called Windows Mobile Device Center. On your Treo Pro smartphone, the sync

application is called ActiveSync. The TreoPro smartphone setup program recognizes whether

you have a Windows XP or Windows Vista computer and automatically directs you to install

the correct software.

Before You

Begin

If you are installing the software on a computer at work, make sure your

company allows you to install new software. Contact your company’s

IT department for help.
