Installing Other Third-Party Applications From a Computer
To install other third-party applications from a computer, you must first install
Palm Desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your device.
When you download an application to your computer, it is probably in a compressed format
such as a ZIP or SIT file. If the file is compressed, you need to use a decompression utility on
your computer, such as WinZip or Allume StuffIt Expander, before you install the
application on your device.
1. On a Windows computer, drag and drop the application file(s) onto the
Palm™ Quick Install icon on the Windows desktop.
On a Mac computer, drag and drop the application file(s) onto the Send To
Handheld droplet in the Palm folder.
2. Select your device name from the User list, and then click OK.
3. Synchronize your device with your computer to install the application(s) on your
device.
Tip:
Getting Help With Third-Party Applications
If you encounter a problem with a third-party application (such as an error message),
contact the application's author or vendor. For general troubleshooting of third-party
applications, see "Third-Party Applications" on page 314.
Section 6A: Managing Files
You can open a window that lets you select whether to install files on
your device or on an expansion card. On a Windows computer,
double-click the Palm Quick Install icon. On a Mac computer, open the
HotSync menu and select Install Handheld files.
