Customizing HotSync application settings
For each application, you can define a set of options that determines
how records are handled during synchronization. These options are
called a “conduit.” By default, a HotSync operation synchronizes all
files between the companion and Palm Desktop for IBM WorkPad.
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 companion or Palm Desktop for IBM WorkPad, or
to avoid synchronizing a particular type of file because you do not use
it.
In addition to the conduits for Date Book, Address Book, To Do List,
Memo Pad, and Expense, Palm Desktop for IBM WorkPad includes
System and Install conduits. The System conduit backs up the system
information stored on your companion, including Graffiti
®
ShortCuts.
The Install conduit installs applications on your companion.
To customize HotSync application settings:
1. Click the HotSync icon
in the Windows system tray (bottom-
right corner of the taskbar).
Tip: You can also click the HotSync command on the Palm
Desktop for IBM WorkPad menu bar.
2. From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Custom.
3. Select the appropriate user name from the list.
4. Select an application in the Conduit list.
5. Click Change.
