Installing and removing applications
This section explains how to install and remove applications and other files on
your handheld or on an expansion card, and how to remove Palm Desktop
software from your computer.
Installing files and add-on applications
Your handheld comes with many applications installed and ready to use. During
a HotSync operation, you can also install additional applications, such as games
and other software, on your handheld or on a card that is seated in the expansion
card slot. Applications or games that you install on your handheld reside in RAM,
and you can delete them at any time.
You can also install other files that are associated with an application on your
handheld, such as photos or audio files. Files that are not associated with an
application on your handheld may not be installed during a HotSync operation.
Both applications and files are easy to install during a HotSync operation. You can
install the following types of files:
■
Palm OS
®
file types, including PRC and PDB
■
Image files, including BMP and JPEG
NOTE
You must use the Palm™ Photos application on your desktop to send
image files to your handheld’s ROM
■
MP3 and RealAudio audio files (requires the audio application from the CD-
ROM, and audio files must reside on and can only be installed to an expansion
card, which is sold separately)
■
Microsoft Office files, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents
NOTE
You must use the DataViz Docs To Go application on your desktop to
send Microsoft Office files to your handheld’s ROM
■
Kinoma video files (requires the Kinoma application from the CD-ROM)
NOTE
You may need to download software from the Internet while installing some
applications from the CD-ROM.
