Creating a user profile

If you need to configure several Palm OS

®

phones with specific

information (such as a company phone list) before distributing them to
their actual users, you can create a user profile to load the data into a
phone without associating that data with a user name. The User Profile
feature is designed only for the first-time HotSync operation, before you
assign a User ID to a particular phone.

To create a user profile:

1.

Open Palm Desktop software.

2.

From the

Tools

menu, choose

Users

.

3.

Click

Profiles

.

4.

Click

New

.

5.

Enter a unique name for the profile, and click

OK

.

6.

Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each profile that you want to create, and
then click

OK

to return to Palm Desktop software.

7.

Select the profile from the User list and create the data for the profile
(e.g., company phone list, etc.).
