Palm Desktop software
Palm Desktop software includes the same main applications as your
handheld:Date Book, Address, To Do List, Memo Pad, Expense, and
desktop e-mail connectivity. You can use the HotSync feature of this
software to back up and exchange data between your handheld and
your computer. It is a good idea to back up your data in case
something happens to the data on your handheld. Changes you make
on your handheld or Palm Desktop software appear in both places
after you synchronize.
With Palm Desktop software, you can do the following:
■
Work with your handheld applications on your computer. Palm
Desktop software duplicates the Date Book, Address, To Do List,
Memo Pad applications on your handheld, so you can view, enter,
and modify any data stored on your handheld.
■
Back up the data stored on your handheld with HotSync
technology and synchronize the data on your Palm Desktop
software. Synchronization is a one-step procedure that ensures
your data is always safe and up-to-date. See “Exchanging and
updating data: HotSync operations” in Chapter 5 for details.
■
Import and export data, so you can easily transfer data from other
desktop applications into any of your main applications. See
“Importing data” in Chapter 2 for more information.
■
Print your Date Book, Address, To Do List, and Memo Pad
information on any printer.
