Customizing HotSync application settings
For each application, you can define a set of options that determines how records are handled
during synchronization. These options are called a “conduit.” By default, a HotSync operation
synchronizes all files between the communicator and your desktop software.
In general, you should leave the settings to synchronize all files. The only reason you might want
to change these settings is to overwrite data on either your communicator or your desktop
software, or to avoid synchronizing a particular type of file because you don’t use it.
In addition to the conduits for the applications on your communicator, HotSync Manager includes
System and Install conduits. The System conduit backs up the system information stored on your
communicator, including keyboard ShortCuts. The Install conduit installs applications on your
communicator.
To customize HotSync application settings:
1. Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray (bottom-right corner of the
taskbar).
Tip: You can also click the HotSync command on the Palm Desktop software menu bar.
2. From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Custom.
3. Select the appropriate user name from the list.
4. Select an application in the Conduit list.
5. Click Change.
