Conducting cradle/cable HotSync operations
277
If you are a system administrator preparing several handhelds for a group of users,
you may want to create a user profile. See “Creating a user profile” later in this
chapter before performing the following steps.
IMPORTANT
You must perform your
first
HotSync operation with a local, direct
connection or with infrared communication, rather than with a modem.
The following steps assume that you have already installed Palm Desktop
software. See “Step 4: Run Palm Setup Wizard” in Chapter 1 if you have not
installed this software.
To perform a local HotSync operation on a Mac computer:
1. Place your handheld in the HotSync cradle/cable.
2. Make sure that HotSync Manager is enabled: Double-click the HotSync
Manager icon in the Palm folder. Click the HotSync Controls tab, and make sure
the Enabled option is selected.
3. Press the HotSync button on the cradle/cable.
The HotSync Progress dialog box appears, followed by the Select User
dialog box.
