Operating

synchronization. Each set of these options is called a conduit. By default, a HotSync® operation synchronizes

all files between your CLIÉ handheld and the Palm™ Desktop for CLIÉ software.

 

 

 

 

In general, you should leave the settings as they are to synchronize all files. The only reason you might want

 

to change these settings is to overwrite data on either your CLIÉ handheld or the Palm™ Desktop for CLIÉ

CLIE

software, or to avoid synchronizing a particular type of file because you do not use it. In addition to the

conduits for Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, Memo Pad, and Expense, the Palm™ Desktop for CLIÉ

 

software offers System and Install conduits. The System conduit backs up the system information stored on

 

your CLIÉ handheld. The Install conduit installs add-on applications on your CLIÉ handheld.

 

To customize HotSync® application settings, proceed as follows:

1 Click the HotSync® icon in the Windows® task tray (bottom-right of the taskbar) and then select Custom from the HotSync® Manager menu.

Alternatively, select Custom from the HotSync® menu of the Palm™ Desktop for CLIÉ software. The Custom dialog box appears.

2Select the user name you are using on your CLIÉ handheld from the drop-down list.

3Select an application from the Conduit list.

4Click Change.

The Change HotSync Action dialog box appears.

5Click the direction in which you want to write data, or click Do nothing.

6Click OK.

7Repeat steps 2 to 6 to change conduit settings for other applications (or users).

8Click Done.

Any change in the HotSync® setting from the default affects only the next HotSync® operation. Thereafter, the HotSync® actions revert to their default settings. To use a new setting on an ongoing basis, select the Set as default box.

To restore the default settings, click Default in the Custom dialog box.
