Upgrading from Another Palm Powered Device
You can transfer all compatible applications and information from your previous
device to your new Treo 650. This includes your calendar events, contacts,
memos, and to do items, as well as your application settings and any compatible
third-party applications and files.
During the installation, some third-party applications may be quarantined
because they are not compatible with the Palm® OS software version 5.4 on your
new Treo 650. Quarantined files are not installed on your smart device nor are
they deleted; these files are placed in a new folder on your computer.
To transfer all compatible applications and information from your previous device to your
new Treo 650:
1. Calculate how much space your applications and information occupy on
your old device. From the Applications Launcher (on some devices this is
called the Home screen), open the menus. Select Info on the App menu. At
the bottom of the screen, select Size. Look at the numbers on the Free Space
line and subtract the number on the left from the number on the right to
calculate the space used. For example, on the device shown here,
19.6 - 17.8 = 1.8. This means that 1.8MB of space is occupied on this device.
Note: Some third-party utilities allow you to back up your old device’s
information onto an expansion card, and then transfer the information
to your Treo 650. We do not recommend this method because any
incompatible applications are also transferred.
