Installing and removing applications

This section explains how to install and remove applications on your
handheld or on an expansion card, and how to remove Palm™
Desktop software from your computer.

Installing add-on applications

Your handheld comes with the Date Book, Address Book, To Do List,
Note Pad, Memo Pad, and Calculator applications installed and ready
to use.

You can also install additional applications on your handheld or on a
card that is seated in the expansion card slot, such as games and other
software. The Install Tool makes it easy to install software during a
HotSync

®

operation. There are a variety of third-party applications

available for your handheld. To learn more about these applications,
visit the web site

http://www.palm.com.

Note: Any game or application that you install on your handheld

resides in RAM memory; you can delete them at any time.

To install add-on software on your handheld using a
Windows computer:

1. On your computer, copy or download the application you want to

install into the add-on folder in your Palm Desktop directory on
your computer.

Note: If the software you download is compressed, you need to

decompress it into this folder. If you prefer to place the
application into another folder, you need to navigate to that
folder before you complete step 5.

2. Double-click the Palm Desktop icon on your desktop.

3. Click Install.

Tip: You can also access the Install Tool dialog by selecting Install

Tool from the Palm Desktop program group or by double-
clicking any file with a PRC, PDB, PQA, PNC, or SCP file
extension.
