Before You Begin

Do the following:

If you are installing the software on a computer at work, make sure your company allows you to install new software. Contact your company’s IT department for help.

If you want to sync pictures, videos, and music from your Windows Media Library, you must install Windows Media Player 10 or later before you install ActiveSync desktop software.

1.Close any applications that are currently running on your computer, including those running in the background. (Your computer must have all its resources available before you can install the software.)

2.Insert the Getting Started CD for Palm Treo 800w smart device into the CD drive on your computer.

Setting Up Windows Mobile Device Center: Windows Vista®

If you have a Windows Vista computer, the desktop sync software is called Windows Mobile Device Center. The Getting Started CD for Palm Treo 800w smart device recognizes that you have a Windows Vista computer, and directs you to install Windows Mobile Device Center (if it is not already on your computer). On your Treo, the sync application is called ActiveSync.
