Performing Hotsync; When Performing Hotsync For The First Time - Sony CLIE PEG-S300 Operating Instructions Manual

Performing HotSync

"HotSync" is a technology which automatically synchronizes Sony
handheld application data with Palm Desktop for Sony software data on the
computer.
You can also reduce time required for completing HotSync by limiting to
only the necessary data to be processed by HotSync.

When performing HotSync for the first time

When performing a HotSync operation for the first time, you need to enter
user information both in Sony handheld and Palm Desktop for Sony
software.
When you enter user information and then perform HotSync, the Sony
handheld user name is recognized automatically, so you do not have to
enter the same information repeatedly.
When you need to manage several units of Sony handheld through a single
computer, you must predefine a user profile for each unit of Sony handheld.
For more information, see "Creating a user profile" (page 150).
