Restoring data
When you use the backup file to restore information to your HP Jornada,
information on the device is replaced with the information stored in the backup
file. If you have created files on your HP Jornada since the last backup and do
not want to delete these files during the restore process, move the files from
your HP Jornada to your desktop PC before restoring information. You can
restore data using ActiveSync or the HP backup application.
Restoring data with ActiveSync

Jornada. Any data added after the backup file was created will be lost.
To restore data with ActiveSync

Jornada. (In the Today screen, tap the HP task switcher icon, and
then tap
Close Window
and

on the pop-up menu.)

Tools

cradle, remove the CompactFlash card (if installed), and reset your
HP Jornada. See the

section in
chapter 9.
