SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION—BASICS

NOTE

To sync your info, you must install Palm

®

Desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with

your Treo 700

P

smartphone—even if you sync with Outlook or another third-party application. See the User Guide for info.

Synchronizing means that information that is entered or updated in one place (your smartphone
or your computer) is automatically updated in the other, so there’s no need to enter the
information twice. We strongly recommend that you synchronize your Treo smartphone with
your computer or corporate server frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed
up) in both locations.

The info from all the following applications is updated by default each time you sync your
smartphone with your desktop software:

How each application syncs depends on your computer type and the desktop software you are
using, as follows:
