Zire™ 31 Handheld
Synchronizing Your Handheld with Your Computer

What information is synchronized?

If you use the preset settings, information from all the following applications is transferred each
time you synchronize your handheld with your computer:
NOTE
Information from the Expense and Photos applications is synchronized on Windows
computers only. When you synchronize on a Mac computer your photos are stored in the Home/
Pictures/palmOne Photos/<username> folder.
In addition, the preset settings back up system information from your handheld to your computer
and install add-on applications from your computer to your handheld.
If you've installed applications from the CD such as Photos, these applications may also be
included in the presets for synchronization.
If you want to synchronize applications other than the presets, see the section on choosing which
applications to synchronize in the User Guide on the web.
You can synchronize more than one handheld with your computer. For example, different family
members can synchronize their handhelds with the same copy of Palm Desktop software. Just
make sure that each handheld has its own username; Palm Desktop software reads the username
and recognizes the handheld during synchronization. Although several people can share the same
copy of Palm Desktop software, they should not share the same username.
