Customizing HotSync application 
settings
For each application, you can define a set of options that determines 
how records are handled during synchronization. These options are 
called a “conduit.” By default, a HotSync operation synchronizes all 
files between the handheld and Palm Desktop software. 
In general, you should leave the settings to synchronize all files. The 
only reason you might want to change these settings is to overwrite 
data on either your handheld or Palm Desktop software, or to avoid 
synchronizing a particular type of file because you don’t use it.
In addition to the conduits for Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, 
Note Pad, and Memo Pad, Palm Desktop software includes System 
and Install conduits. The System conduit backs up the system 
information stored on your handheld, including Graffiti
®
ShortCuts.
The Install conduit installs add-on applications on your handheld.
To customize HotSync application settings on a 
Windows computer:
1. Click the HotSync icon
™
in the Windows system tray (bottom-
right corner of the taskbar).
Tip: You can also click the HotSync command on the Palm
Desktop software menu bar.
2. From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Custom.
3. Select the appropriate user name from the list.
4. Select an application in the Conduit list.
5. Click Change.
