means the Cradle and optional PalmPilot Modem perform
their normal HotSync functions.
Any changes that you make in the HotSync Buttons Preferences
screen become effective immediately; you do not have to change
to a different screen or application.
ShortCuts and Digitizer Preferences
The Preferences pick list includes the ShortCuts item. ShortCuts
are abbreviations for entering text. The use of ShortCuts is
explained in Chapter 8: Additional Features.
The Preferences pick list also includes the Digitizer item, which
activates the digitizer calibration screen. This is the same screen
that appears when you start your PalmPilot for the first time. A
complete description of how to use the digitizer calibration screen
appears earlier in this chapter, in the section entitled Starting
PalmPilot for the First Time
.
PalmPilot Applications
Your PalmPilot is equipped with a variety of applications. The four
main applications, Date Book, Address Book, To Do List and
Memo Pad, can be activated with the front panel buttons on your
PalmPilot. These four buttons can also be reassigned to any
application installed on your PalmPilot, as described in the section
entitled “Buttons Preferences” that appeared earlier in this
chapter.
However, all applications installed on your PalmPilot appear in the
Application picker. You can access and use the application picker
to start any application installed on your PalmPilot.
