Installing the desktop synchronization
software

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Check the following:

You must have Windows Media Player
10 or later installed on your computer.

If you are installing on a computer at
work, make sure your company allows
you to install new software. Contact
your company’s IT department for help.

1 Close any applications that are currently

running on your computer, including
those running in the background. Your
computer needs to have all its
resources available to install the
software.

2 Insert the Getting Started CD into the

CD drive on your computer.

3 Follow the onscreen instructions during

the installation. The Install program
prompts you to synchronize for the
first time. See Synchronizing contacts
and other info
for more info on
synchronization.

TIP

You can also synchronize your smartphone

with a Microsoft Exchange Server using
Microsoft Office Outlook. See Setting up an
Exchange Server email account.

TIP

If you want to synchronize with a personal

information manager (PIM) other than
Microsoft Office Outlook, you must install a
third-party solution. Contact the third party or
vendor to learn whether software is available
for your Treo 700wx smartphone.
