Synchronizing contacts and other
personal data

Before you can synchronize your contacts and other personal data, you must install
Palm Desktop software from the CD that came with your Treo. See page 30 for
instructions.

1. Connect your Treo to your computer as described on page 29.
2. Press the HotSync button on the cable.

3. Wait for your Treo to display a message indicating that the process is complete.

• If nothing happens, make sure that you installed Palm Desktop software and

that the HotSync Manager application is running on your computer (

).

• If you want to synchronize data with applications other than Palm Desktop or

Microsoft Outlook, you need to purchase additional third-party conduit software.

• If you have any problems performing a HotSync operation, see page 147 for

troubleshooting suggestions.

We strongly recommend
that you install Palm
Desktop software soon
after you start using your
Treo, and that you
synchronize your Treo and
computer frequently to
keep your information up-
to-date (and backed up) in
both locations.
