♦Setting Up Your Computer for Synchronization

♦Synchronizing With a USB Connection

Synchronizing means that information that has been entered or updated in one place—your Palm® Treo™ 800W smart device, your computer, or your corporate server—is automatically updated in the other. There’s no need to enter information twice. Some types of synchronization can happen on an automated schedule, so you don’t even have to think about it.

After you get into the habit of synchronizing regularly, you can see what a powerful tool synchronization is for transferring, updating, and backing up large amounts of information on your Treo.
