5. If you had important settings on your old handheld, such as Network Preferences or

Connection Preferences, manually copy them from your old handheld to your new handheld.

6. Compare the applications on your old handheld and your new handheld.

7. Beam any third party applications that did not transfer from your old handheld to your new

handheld, or install them from the original files.

8. If any data for your third party applications did not transfer, beam it from your old handheld to

your new handheld.

9. If you created a password on your old handheld, enter it on your new handheld.

Note:

Records you previously marked Private remain marked Private, but you need to
reenter a password on your new handheld.

Each device must have a unique name

After you complete the upgrade process described above, you have two devices with the same
name. This is an undesirable situation. Each device must have a unique name in order to prevent
unexpected results during HotSync operations and other complications.

We strongly recommend that you perform a hard reset on your old handheld. See page 201 for
details.

A hard reset not only erases all data from the old handheld; it also erases the name and makes
that handheld a clean slate, ready to receive a new name. The next time you perform a HotSync
operation with this old handheld, you are asked to give it a name. Be sure to give it a unique name.
