Multi-User Support
Intellisync can be used to synchronize multiple handhelds. A separate
operation can be configured for each.
However, before you can configure an operation for a second (or third,
etc.) handheld, a User name for that handheld must be added to the
Palm
™
Desktop Software User list. Instructions for adding User names
are provided below.
When more than one User name has been added to the Palm Desktop
Software User list, Intellisync prompts you to select a User name each
time you configure (or re-configure) an Intellisync operation.
You are normally not prompted for a User name when you run a
synchronization. The HotSync
®
Manager recognizes the handheld in
the cradle and automatically runs the operation currently configured
for that User name.
Adding a User Name
1. Open Palm Desktop.
2. Open
the
Tools menu and select Users.
3. Click
the
New button in the dialog that displays. When the New
User dialog appears, enter a User name (maximum, 15 characters).
4. Click
OK to save the name.
5. Run the Intellisync Configure operation and, when prompted,
select the User name you added.
6. After you have configured an operation, place the handheld in its
cradle and press the HotSync button. When prompted, select the
new User name and press OK. This transfers the User name to the
handheld and starts the synchronization.
“Owner names”
specified in the
handheld are not the
same as User names.
User names can only
be defined in Palm
Desktop Software.
