You can leave the HotSync application on your organizer set to
perform IR HotSync operations and still use the cradle. This is useful
if you perform HotSync operations with both your desktop computer
and a laptop that you travel with. When you travel, you don’t have to
carry a cradle or cable because your organizer is set to perform IR
HotSync operations. When you’re in the office, just place your
organizer in the cradle and press the HotSync button.
Using HotSync with Multiple Users
The Franklin Planner software that came with your Palm IIIxe
organizer is capable of handling multiple databases, thus, multiple
users can manage their schedules on a single desktop computer.
Also, HotSync Manager is capable of “connecting” specific Franklin
Planner software databases with specific Palm IIIxe organizers. In this
way, an assistant or secretary could manage multiple schedules from
a desktop computer, then download the various appointment
schedules and task lists into their corresponding Palm IIIxe
organizers. Similarly, a Palm IIIxe user could conduct a HotSync
operation with the desktop computer and synchronize all changes
(such as Expense information) which would then be stored in that
user’s individual database.
Configuring Franklin Planner software
for multiple users
See your Franklin Planner Software User’s Guide for information on
how to set it up for multiple users.
Configuring Multiple Palm IIIxe organizers
The first time you conduct a HotSync operation, if your Franklin
Planner software has multiple user databases, HotSync Manager will
prompt you to specify or select a name for your Palm IIIxe organizer,
then will also prompt you to select the corresponding user name for
the desired Franklin Planner software database. Once you have made
this selection, HotSync Manager remembers the connection (for
example, database for user “Bill Van Helsing” connects to Palm IIIxe
named “Bill Van Helsing”) and will not ask for the information again.
To configure your Palm IIIxe for use with a specific user database:
1. Make sure that HotSync Manager is running.
