Connecting your Treo 680 to your
computer
After you install the desktop software (see
Installing the desktop synchronization
software), you’re ready to connect your
Treo 680 to your computer.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN To set up your
computer, you need the sync cable that
came with your Treo 680.
1 Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet.
2 Plug the USB sync cable into an
available USB port or a powered USB
hub on your computer.
3 With the sync button facing up, connect
the sync cable to the bottom of your
Treo 680. Do not press the sync button
until you are instructed to do so.
TIP For best performance, plug your sync
cable directly into a USB port on your
computer. If your computer has USB ports on
both the front and back, we suggest using the
back port; the front port is often a low-power
port. If you use a USB hub, make sure the hub
has its own power supply.
