I can't perform an IR HotSync
operation.
My handheld appears to freeze
when I place it near my
computer.
When I press the HotSync
button on the cradle/cable,
nothing happens on Palm
Desktop software, and my
handheld times out.
On a computer running Windows 98, be sure that the
HotSync Manager is running, that Infrared is selected on the
HotSync Manager menu, and that the Serial Port for local
operations is set to the simulated port for infrared

On a computer running Windows 2000/ME/XP, select IR in

Manager is enabled and that the Local Setup Port is set to
Infrared Port. See
Chapter 16 for more information.

Be sure the IR port of your handheld is aligned directly
opposite to, and within a few inches of, the infrared device
of your computer.
