Chapter 6 | Configuring and Optimizing Your hp Jornada | 93
Install only programs designed specifically to run on an hp Jornada personal
digital assistant and/or a Windows Powered Pocket PC. You cannot run
programs designed for Windows on your hp Jornada. In addition, you may
need a version of the program designed specifically for the StrongARM
processor used by your hp Jornada.
Install software to your hp Jornada by first loading the installation files onto
your desktop PC, and then using ActiveSync or running the Application
Manager. You can install programs to storage memory (RAM) or to the hp
safe store folder.
To install a program using ActiveSync
1. Download the program to your desktop computer (or insert the CD
or disk that contains the program into your desktop computer).
You may see a single *.exe or *.xip file, a *.zip file, a Setup.exe
file, or several versions of files for different device types and
processors. Be sure to select the program designed for the Pocket
PC and the StrongARM processor.
2. Connect your hp Jornada to your desktop PC.
3. If the program includes an installer program (typically named
Setup.exe or Install.exe), double-click the installer program on the
desktop PC. The installer program copies the necessary files to
your hp Jornada.

If the program does not include an installer, use ActiveSync
Explore to copy the program file to the Program Files folder on
your hp Jornada. Refer to the Read Me file or documentation that
came with the program to be sure you have copied the necessary
file(s). For more information on copying files using ActiveSync, see
ActiveSync Help.
You can also use Pocket Internet Explorer to download some programs from the
Internet directly to your hp Jornada. If the program includes a *.xip, *.exe or
*.zip file, a Setup.exe file, or a cabinet (*.cab) file for Pocket PC, you can
download this file to your hp Jornada, and then tap the icon to install the
program.
