Customizing HotSync application settings
225
In general, you should leave the settings to synchronize all files. The only reason
you might want to change these settings is to overwrite data on either your
handheld or Palm Desktop software, or to avoid synchronizing a particular type of
file because you don’t use it.
In addition to the conduits for Calendar, Contacts, Palm™ Photos, Note Pad, Tasks,
and Memos, Palm Desktop software includes System and Install conduits. The
System conduit backs up the system information stored on your handheld,
including Graffiti
®
2 ShortCuts. The Install conduit installs add-on applications on
your handheld.
To customize HotSync application settings on a Windows computer:
1.
Click the HotSync icon in the Windows system tray (lower-right corner of
the taskbar).
You can also click the HotSync command on the Palm Desktop software
menu bar.
2.
From HotSync Manager menu, select Custom.
3.
Select the appropriate username from the list.
4.
Select an application in the Conduit list.
5.
Click Change.
6.
For each application, click the direction in which you want to write data, or click
Do Nothing to skip data transfer for an application.
Changing the HotSync setting from the default affects only the next HotSync
operation. Thereafter, the HotSync Actions revert to their default settings. To
use a new setting on an ongoing basis, select the Set As Default box. Thereafter,
whatever you selected as the default setting is used when you click the Default
button in the Custom dialog box.
7.
Click OK.
