Making a backup of the data on your CLIÉ
handheld

We recommend that you make a backup of your data in case of unexpected

problems. Backing up your data will ensure that it can be restored again on your

CLIÉ handheld, even if you have to perform a hard reset.

Making a backup using Memory Stick Backup

Use “Memory Stick” media and the supplied

Memory Stick Backup

on your

CLIÉ handheld to back up data and applications on your CLIÉ handheld.

b

“Memory Stick” media (sold separately) is required.

For details, refer to “Backing up your CLIÉ™ handheld data and
applications” in the “Handbook.”

Making a backup using the HotSync

®

operation

Data on your CLIÉ handheld is backed up to your computer when the

HotSync

®

operation is performed. If you need to perform a hard reset, this

would erase all user data stored on your CLIÉ handheld. However, this can be

restored with the next HotSync

®

operation.

Note

Some applications installed later or some data created with such applications, cannot be
backed up using the HotSync

®

operation. In particular, you cannot back up applications

or data installed through beaming, “Memory Stick” media or CF memory card, by
synchronizing your computer with your CLIÉ handheld. Use

Memory Stick Backup

to make such backups.

b

For details on the HotSync

®

operation, refer to “Exchanging and updating

files/data using the HotSync

®

operation (Other HotSync

®

operations)” in

the “Handbook.”
