Inside the Backups folder is a file with a name derived from the owner’s name
you entered on your Newton device. This file contains the latest backup
information. If you haven’t entered an owner’s name on your Newton device,
the file is called “Newton Device.”
By default, the Backups folder is located in the Newton Connection Utilities
folder. You can change the location of this folder. See “Changing the Location
of the Backups Folder” later in this chapter.
Backing up cards
When you back up a storage card, a separate backup file is created with the
name of the card. If you haven’t entered a name for your card, the file is called
Card.
If you back up more than one unnamed card, the backup files are
named
Card, Card 2, Card 3,
and so on.
Note:
To avoid confusion and possible loss of information when doing
backups, it’s best to name all your storage cards. For more information
on naming storage cards, see the user’s manual that came with your
Newton device.
