Introduction to Your Handheld

To install Palm Desktop software on a Macintosh computer:

2. Insert the Palm Desktop software CD-ROM into your Macintosh’s

CD-ROM drive.

4. Double-click the Installer icon to begin the installation procedure.

5. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation.

Using your handheld with another PIM

If you prefer to use another personal information manager (PIM), such
as Microsoft Outlook, you still need to install Palm Desktop software
in order to add HotSync Manager, the connection software, and other
features of Palm Desktop software to your computer. The connection
software, called a conduit, lets you synchronize the data between your
handheld and your PIM. The conduit for Microsoft Outlook is
included on the Palm Desktop software CD-ROM (Windows only);
however you must install it in addition to the Palm Desktop software.
For information on the availability of conduit software for the PIM
you use, contact the vendor of your PIM or visit the web site
