Apple Newton Connection Utilities (for Windows) - Manual (Page 10)

Newton Connection Utilities buttons also appear on your Newton screen.
You can use these buttons to select a utility. (However, exporting and
transferring information to or from Newton Works are available only from
your computer.)
Note: For simplicity, the instructions in this book describe using the Newton
Connection Utilities from your computer, but you can also start the utilities
from your Newton device. See Chapter 11, “Using the Utilities From Your
Newton Device,” for more information.
Creating your first backup
After you establish a connection, you can make a backup of information and
packages on your Newton device and store it on your computer.
Backing up your Newton device provides a safe way to store information in
case it gets lost or deleted by mistake. It’s a good idea to back up your Newton
device before you import, export, or synchronize information.
To create your first backup, follow these steps:
1 Click the Backup button in the Newton Connection Utilities window.
