Sync for Palm OS manual

1. Before You Start

Important notice in using Sync for Palm OS(R):

  1. Do not use Sync for Palm OS(R) with a Palm OS(R) PDA not listed on the System Requirement page.

    • If you do, you may lose the data in your Palm OS PDA and/or Share360.
    • Please refer to this page for further details. We would appreciate any incompatibility reports from you.
  2. You can only synchronize the data between your Palm OS PDA and Share360, not with other PIM desktop applications.

    • For example, after synchronizing the data between Share360 and your Palm handheld with Sync for Palm OS(R), you cannot use the same handheld to HotSync the data with other PIM applications, such as Palm Desktop or MS Outlook. In other words, the data synchronization cannot be performed between more than three applications at the same time.
  3. Do not synchronize with applications that are not initially installed on your Palm OS handheld.

    • If you synchronize with applications that are not default applications, it may cause data loss.
  4. Do not interrupt the HotSync process during the synchronization of data between Share360 and your Palm OS PDA.

    • Each conduit of Sync for Palm OS(R) stores the latest update information when completing the data synchronization process. Accordingly, if you stop the HotSync process in the middle, the latest update information may not be recorded properly. This will lead to problems such as registering the same data twice.
  5. You may get the following message: "Save archive copy on PC."

    • This message, which you get when trying to delete the data in your Palm OS PDA, refers to the backup function of the Palm Desktop application. For further details, please refer to the operation manual that comes with your handheld. Sync for Palm OS(R) does not have any backup function, so even if you check the Save archive copy on PC box when deleting the data, it will not be backed up in the Palm desktop application.
