Management settings to clear all recent
pages (see Customizing your web
browser settings).

Third-party applications: You can
delete infrequently used applications
(see Removing applications) or move
them to an expansion card (see Copying
applications between an expansion card
and your Centro
).

Third-party
applications

Some third-party applications can cause
conflicts on your Centro. For example,
third-party applications that were not
written with the Centro keyboard and
5-way navigator in mind may cause strange
behavior or errors when using the keyboard
and 5-way navigator in these applications.
Third-party applications that modify
wireless features may require extra
troubleshooting.

If you recently installed an application and
your device seems to be stuck, try the
following:

1 Perform a soft reset (see Performing a

soft reset).

2 If the problem persists, perform a

system reset (see Performing a system
reset).

3 Delete the most recently installed

application from your Centro (see
Removing applications).

4 If the problem persists, perform another

system reset.

5 If possible, synchronize your Centro

with your computer to back up your
most recent info.

6 If you’re unable to perform the

preceding steps or the problem
persists, locate your Backup subfolder
on your computer and rename the
folder (for example, BackupOld).

Windows: C:\Program
Files\Palm\<device name
>

Mac: <Mac hard drive> : Applications
: Palm : Users : <device name
>

NOTE

Can’t find a Palm folder in Program

Files? Then look for a palmOne or
Handspring folder instead. For more info,
see I can’t find my user folder.
