Selecting HotSync setup options

4.If prompted, select the user name you entered when you installed Palm Desktop software. The HotSync Progress dialog box appears and synchronization begins.

Every console should have a unique name. To prevent loss of a user’s records, never try to synchronize more than one console to the same user name. If you need to create a new user name, see the Palm Desktop Online Help for instructions.

5.Wait for a message on your console indicating that the process is complete.

When the HotSync process is complete, you can remove your console from the HotSync cable or cradle.

Selecting HotSync setup options

You can choose when you want HotSync Manager to run. If necessary, you can adjust the other HotSync settings as well.

1.Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray.

2.Choose Setup.

3.Click the General tab, and select one of the following options:

•Always Available. Add HotSync Manager to the Startup folder and constantly monitor the communication port for synchronization requests from your console. With this option, HotSync Manager synchronizes data even when Palm Desktop software is not running.
