Customizing HotSync application settings
For each application, you can define a set of options that determines how records
are handled during synchronization. These options are called a conduit. By default,
a HotSync operation synchronizes all files between the handheld and Palm
Desktop software.
In general, you should leave the settings to synchronize all files. The only reason
you might want to change these settings is to overwrite data on either your
handheld or Palm Desktop software, or to avoid synchronizing a particular type of
file because you don’t use it.
In addition to the conduits for Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, Memo Pad,
and Note Pad, Palm Desktop software includes System and Install conduits, as
well as conduits for the VersaMail
TM application. The System conduit backs up the
system information stored on your handheld, including ShortCuts. The Install
conduit installs add-on applications on your handheld. The conduit for the
VersaMail application enables you to select e-mail accounts to synchronize. The
VersaMail application is optional and is not installed on all handhelds.
HotSync Enabled/
Disabled Activates the HotSync software and prepares your computer
to synchronize with your handheld. By default, the transport
monitor is enabled whenever you start your computer.
Enable HotSync
software at
system startup Activates the transport monitor automatically each time you

open HotSync Manager and select the Enabled option before
