Chapter 20 Performing HotSync
®
Operations
288
If you are a system administrator preparing several handhelds for a group of users,
you may want to create a user profile. See “Using File Link” 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 using a modem or network.
The following steps assume that you have already installed Palm Desktop
software. If you have not installed this software, see the Getting Started installation
guide for instructions.
To perform a local HotSync operation on a Windows computer:
1. Place your handheld in the cradle/cable.
2. If the HotSync Manager is not running, start it: On the Windows desktop, click
Start, and then choose Programs. Navigate to the Palm Desktop software
program group and choose HotSync Manager. Alternatively, you can start the
Palm Desktop software, which automatically opens the HotSync Manager.
