Palm Desktop software
Palm Desktop software includes the same main applications as your
Visor handheld: Address Book, Date Book, To Do List, Memo Pad,
Expense, and desktop e-mail connectivity. You can use the HotSync
feature of this software to back up and exchange data between your
handheld and your computer.
It is a good idea to back up your data in case something happens to the
data on your Visor handheld. Changes you make on your Visor
handheld or Palm Desktop software appear in both places after you
synchronize.
With Palm Desktop software, you can do the following:
■ Work with your Visor handheld applications on your computer.
Palm Desktop software duplicates the Date Book, Address Book,
To Do List, and Memo Pad applications on your handheld, so you
can view, enter, and modify any data stored on your handheld.
■ Back up the data stored on your handheld with HotSync
technology and synchronize the data on your Palm Desktop
software. Synchronization is a one-step procedure that ensures
your data is always safe and up-to-date. See “Exchanging and
updating data: HotSync operations” in Chapter 5 for more
information.
