Synchronizing Information-The Basics, Tip | Sprint Nextel 755P

Synchronizing Information—The Basics

Synchronizing means that information that is entered or updated in one place (your device or your computer) is automatically updated in the other, so there’s no need to enter the information twice. We strongly recommend that you synchronize your Treo™ 755P Smart Device by Palm with your computer or corporate server frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.

Important:

Windows XP users: To sync your information, you must install the software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your device—even if you sync with Outlook (sold separately) or another third-party application. See the User Guide for information.

Windows Vista users: Before inserting the Palm Software Installation CD, please visit www.palm.com/windowsvista. You’ll find installation instructions, along with the most current information on using your device and desktop software with Windows Vista.

Information from all the following applications is updated by default each time you synchronize your device with your desktop software:

Tip:

You can also set up the VersaMail® application to synchronize email on your device with email on your computer. See the User Guide for the VersaMail Application at www.palm.com/mypalm/755psprint for information.
