option to Synchronize, Browse, or to Restore data from an
existing backup file.
If you choose Synchronize, the New Partnership Wizard begins,
and the HP Jornada is designated as a partner of the desktop
PC.
If you choose Browse, the HP Jornada is connected as a “guest.”
As a guest, you can view files and folders on the HP Jornada,
transfer files and folders, and manually back up or restore.
However, you cannot synchronize data or automatically back up
and restore data.
If you choose Restore, you are given the option to restore data
from an existing backup file on the desktop PC. Restoring data in
this way replaces all existing data on the HP Jornada with the
data in the backup file on your PC.
If you have lost the HP Jornada or replaced it with another HP
Jornada, you can set up the new P/PC with the same data and
settings as the old one, if you previously performed a full
backup using Windows CE Services or HP backup.
If you used Windows CE Services to back up your data, then
when you connect the new P/PC to your desktop PC for the
first time, choose Restore rather than Synchronize or Browse.
If you backed up the P/PC using HP backup, then restore the
information as described in “Using HP backup” on page 84.
