CHAPTER 3
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, Notes 
(Windows only: Expense, VersaMail
®
application)
Use
Palm Desktop or Outlook (Windows) to enter information 
on to 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.
