CHAPTER 5

Synchronizing Your Handheld with Your Computer

 

 

Why synchronize information?

Quickly enter and update information on your computer and handheld. Synchronizing updates information both on your handheld and in Palm® Desktop software on your computer. For example, you can quickly enter a contact list on your computer and then send it to your handheld instead of re-entering the information.

NOTE During CD installation, you can choose to synchronize your handheld with Microsoft Outlook on your computer (Windows only). If you do, information from Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Memos is synchronized with Outlook. Other information, such as photos and notes, is synchronized with Palm Desktop software. You can insert the CD at any time to choose synchronization with Outlook if you did not do so during the initial installation.

Install applications and files. You can use palmOne™ Quick Install to send files to certain applications on your handheld or to install additional software when you synchronize.
