Installing and removing applications
53
To drag and drop applications or files onto the Palm Quick Install window:
1.
Copy or download the application(s) or file(s) you want to install onto your
computer.
2.
Double-click the Palm Quick Install icon on the Windows desktop.
3.
From My Computer or Windows Explorer, select the file(s) or folder that you
want to install.
4.
Drag and drop the file(s) or folder onto the handheld file list.
If a No symbol appears when you attempt to drag a file onto a file list, that file
is not supported on that destination.
The status bar shows the number of files selected and their total size. However
since some file types are compressed during synchronization they may actually
require less space then the amount shown in the file size column or status bar.
5.
Perform a HotSync operation to install the files. See “Conducting cable HotSync
operations” in Chapter 13 for details.
NOTE
Files that remain in the list after you perform a HotSync operation were
not installed. This can happen if your handheld is too full to install the file or if
the file type was not recognized during the HotSync operation. If files are
unrecognized, try launching the associated application from your handheld
and then performing another HotSync operation. If the files still remain in the
list, they are not associated with an application on your handheld and cannot
be installed.
