CHAPTER 9 Your Photo and Video Organizer
Copying a photo or video
You can copy photos and videos to your handheld in the following ways:
• On a Windows computer, open the Media application from within Palm® Desktop software, drag
the photos or videos into the Media window, and then synchronize.
• On a Mac computer, drag the photos or videos onto the Send To Handheld droplet
icon,
and then synchronize.
On a Windows computer, when you copy a photo in a popular format—such as JPG, BMP, TIFF
(uncompressed), and GIF—to your handheld, the photo is saved on your handheld in its original
format. If you copy a photo in a different format, it is saved on your handheld in JPG format.
On a Mac computer, all photos you copy using the Send To Handheld droplet icon are saved on
your handheld in JPG format.
When you copy a video from your Windows or Mac computer, the video is converted to a format
your handheld can play and is optimized for viewing on the handheld. Note, however, that there
are numerous video formats, and not all types can be converted to a format that’s viewable on
your handheld. To test a video on your Windows computer, try to open and view the video in the
desktop Media application; if you can’t view the video on your computer, you won’t be able to
view the video on your handheld.
Before You Begin
[ ! ]
You must synchronize
your handheld with your
computer once before
you can copy photos and
videos to your handheld.
Tip
You can also copy photos
and videos to an
expansion card, and then
view them by inserting
the card into your
handheld’s expansion
card slot.
