software appear in both places after a HotSync operation. HotSync
technology synchronizes only the needed portions of files, thus
reducing synchronization time.
You can synchronize your data by connecting your organizer directly
to your computer with the cradle or indirectly with a Palm V™
Modem or network. You can also perform HotSync operations using
the IR port on your organizer. See Chapter 6 for information about
performing HotSync operations via a modem, network, or IR port.
Performing a HotSync operation for the first time
The first time you synchronize your data, you need to enter user
information on both the organizer and Palm Desktop software. After
you enter this information and synchronize, the HotSync Manager
recognizes your organizer and doesn’t ask for this information again.
If you are a System Administrator preparing several connected
organizers for a group of users, you may want to create a user profile.
See “Creating a user profile” in Chapter 6 before performing the
following steps.
Important:
You must perform your
first
HotSync operation with a
local, direct connection, rather than using a modem.
The following steps assume that you have already installed the Palm
Desktop software. If you have not installed this software, see
“Installing Palm Desktop software” in Chapter 1 for instructions.
To perform a local HotSync operation:
1. Insert your organizer into the cradle.
Tip:
The bottom edge of the organizer should align smoothly
with the cradle when it is inserted properly.
