Conducting cradle/cable HotSync operations

277

If you are a system administrator preparing several handhelds for a group of users,
you may want to create a user profile. See

“Creating a user profile”

later in this

chapter before performing the following steps.

IMPORTANT

You must perform your first HotSync operation with a local, direct

connection or with infrared communication, rather than with a modem.

The following steps assume that you have already installed Palm Desktop
software. See

“Step 4: Run Palm Setup Wizard”

in

Chapter 1

if you have not

installed this software.

To perform a local HotSync operation on a Mac computer:

1.

Place your handheld in the HotSync cradle/cable.

2.

Make sure that HotSync Manager is enabled: Double-click the HotSync
Manager icon in the Palm folder. Click the HotSync Controls tab, and make sure
the Enabled option is selected.

3.

Press the HotSync button

on the cradle/cable.

The HotSync Progress dialog box appears, followed by the Select User
dialog box.
