Troubleshooting Tips

Beaming problems

Problem

Solution

I cannot beam data to
another Palm OS
handheld.

Confirm that your handheld and the

other Visor handheld are between ten
centimeters (approximately 4") and one
meter (approximately 39") apart, and
that the path between the two devices is
clear of obstacles. Beaming distance to
other Palm OS handheld computers
may be different.

Check the General Preferences screen

and make sure the Beam Receive setting
is on.

Move your handheld closer to the

receiving device.

Move your handheld farther away from

the receiving device.

Angle the sides of the two devices

towards each other.

Perform a soft reset. See “Performing a

soft reset” in Appendix A for more
information.

When someone
beams data to my
handheld, I get a
message telling me it
is out of memory.

Your handheld requires at least twice

the amount of memory available as the
data you are receiving. For example, if
you are receiving a 30K application, you
must have at least 60K free.

Perform a soft reset. See “Performing a

soft reset” in Appendix A for more
information.
