Some conduits open a file during a sync operation, which means that the corresponding
program should not be running at that time. Specifically, KOrganizer should not be
running during a sync operation.
6.1 Conduits Used by KPilot
The conduits used by KPilot can be enabled and configured after selecting Settings >
Configure KPilot. The following is a list of some important conduits:
Addressbook
This conduit handles the data exchange with the handheld's address book. The KDE
counterpart for managing these contacts is KAddressBook. Start it from the main
menu or with the command kaddressbook.
KNotes/Memos
This conduit allows you to transfer notes created with KNotes to the handheld's
memo application. Start the KDE application from the main menu or with the
command knotes.
Calendar (KOrganizer)
This conduit is responsible for syncing the appointments (events) of the hendheld.
The desktop equivalent is KOrganizer.
ToDos (KOrganizer)
This conduit is responsible for syncing to-do items. The desktop counterpart is
KOrganizer.
Time Synchronization
Enabling this conduit adjusts the handheld's clock to that of the desktop computer
during each sync operation. This is only a good idea if the clock of the desktop
computer itself is corrected by a time server at fairly frequent intervals.
