Installing the desktop synchronization
software

IMPORTANT

Even if you already own a

Palm OS device and have installed a
previous version of the desktop software,
you must install the software from the
Palm Software Installation CD that came
with your Treo 700

P

smartphone.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

If you are installing

on a computer at work, make sure your
computer is configured to let you install
new software. Contact your company’s
IT department for help.

1 Close any apps that are running on your

computer, including those that are

minimized. Your computer needs all its
resources to install the software.

2 Insert the Palm Software Installation CD

into the CD drive on your computer.

3 If you are installing on a Mac,

double-click the CD icon on the desktop,
and then double-click the
PalmSoftware.pkg icon.

4 When the installation wizard opens,

follow the onscreen instructions. Please
note these important points about the
installation process:

When the language selection screen
appears, click the same language you
selected on your smartphone.

You can choose which desktop
software you want to use for

TIP

If you have trouble upgrading, including

finding the location of quarantined files, see
Upgrading.

TIP

If you want to sync info with applications

other than Palm Desktop or Microsoft
Outlook, you need to purchase additional
third-party sync software. This sync software
is sometimes called a conduit.
