Why synchronize information?
Quickly enter and update information on your computer and handheld.
Synchronizing updates
information both on your handheld and in
Palm
®
Desktop software
on your computer. For
example, you can quickly enter a contact list on your computer and then send it to your handheld
instead of reentering the information.
During CD installation, you can choose to
synchronize your handheld with Microsoft
Outlook
on your computer (Windows only).
Install applications.
With just a few clicks, you can use
palmOne™ Quick Install
to add files to
certain applications on your handheld or to install additional software.
Protect your information.
Nothing is worse than losing important information. When you
synchronize information, you create a backup copy. If something happens to your handheld or
your computer, the information is not lost; one tap restores it in both places.
Be sure to synchronize information at least once a day so that you always have
an up-to-date backup copy of important information.
Tip
Use the Documents To Go
application on your
desktop to transfer
Microsoft Word,
PowerPoint, or Excel files
from your computer and
to your handheld during
synchronization. View
and edit them in the
Documents
application
on your handheld at your
convenience.
