Important: The first time you perform a HotSync operation, you
must enter a user name in the New User dialog box and
click OK. Every PC companion should have a unique
name. To prevent loss of a user’s records, never try to
synchronize more than one PC companion to the same
user name.
The HotSync Progress dialog box appears and synchronization
begins.
4. Wait for a message on your PC companion indicating that the
process is complete.
After the HotSync process is complete, you can remove your PC
companion from the cradle.
Tip:
To remove your PC companion from the cradle, rock it gently
forward, then lift.
