CHAPTER 5

Moving and Managing Info Between Your Handheld and Your Computer

When would I use each method?

The method you use to move info onto your handheld depends on the type of info it is. Here are
the methods to use with the most common information types.

0

Information in Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Memos, Note Pad
(Windows only: Expense, VersaMail

®

)

Use Palm Desktop

or Outlook (Windows) to enter information on your
computer. Synchronize to transfer the new or updated
information on your computer to your handheld.

Applications (PRC or PDB file)

Use Quick Install from

within Palm Desktop (Windows) or drag the application to
the Send To Handheld droplet icon on your desktop (Mac),
and then synchronize to install the application to your
handheld.

Did You Know?

When you transfer files
using synchronization,
the files are always
placed in the
corresponding folder on
your handheld—for
example, the Music folder
for MP3 files or the
Documents folder for
Office files.

If you transfer files using
File Transfer, save them
to the corresponding
folder so you can easily
locate them—or copy or
create your own folder
structure to organize your
project files any way you
like.
