Why Synchronize Information - palmOne Zire 31 User Manual

CHAPTER 5
Zire™ 31 Handheld
Synchronizing Your Handheld with Your Computer

Why synchronize information?

Quickly enter and update information on your computer and handheld. Synchronizing updates
information both on your handheld and in Palm® Desktop software on your computer. For
example, you can quickly enter a contact list on your computer and then send it to your handheld
instead of re-entering the information.
NOTE During CD installation, you can choose to synchronize your handheld with Microsoft
Outlook on your computer (Windows only). If you do, information from Contacts, Calendar, Tasks,
and Memos is synchronized with Outlook. Other information, such as photos and notes, is
synchronized with Palm Desktop software. You can insert the CD at any time to choose
synchronization with Outlook if you did not do so during the initial installation.
Install applications and files. You can use palmOne™ Quick Install to send files to certain
applications on your handheld or to install additional software when you synchronize.
