Upgrading from another
Palm Powered™ device

To transfer all compatible applications and data from your previous device to your new
Treo™ 600 smartphone:

1. Perform a HotSync

®

operation with your old device and your old desktop software

to back up your data one last time.

2. Install Palm

®

Desktop software from the CD that came with your Treo (see

page 30). During the installation process, perform a HotSync operation with your
new Treo. When prompted to choose a user name for your new Treo, be sure to
select the existing user name for your old device.

3. Some third-party applications may be quarantined by HotSync Manager because

they are not compatible with the Palm OS

®

5.2 on your Treo. Do not manually

install any quarantined files (see the documentation that came with the third-party
applications for more information).

4. If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset (see page 141)

to remove its associated user name. Each device you synchronize with your
computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize with your old
device, be sure to assign it a new user name.

After upgrading, there are a few things you need to know about your new Treo:
• Address Book: This application is now called Contacts. To launch Contacts, press

Phone

, then use the 5-way navigation control to choose Contacts.

• Date Book+: This application is now called Calendar. To access this application,

press Calendar

.

Always use the same
language for your Treo and
your desktop software.
Otherwise, you may lose
data.
