infrared port of your computer.

Returning to using the cradle for HotSync operations

It's easy to return to using the cradle for HotSync operations.
The next time you want to perform a HotSync operation just press the
HotSync button on the cradle. You can leave the HotSync application on your
handheld set to perform IR HotSync operations and still use the cradle. This is
useful if you perform HotSync operations with both your desktop computer
and a laptop that you travel with. When you travel you don't have to carry a
cradle or cable. When you are in the office just place your organizer in the
cradle and press the HotSync button.

Creating a user profile

You can create a user profile to load data into an handheld without
associating that data with a user name. This feature lets System
Administrators configure several handhelds with specific information (such as
a company phone list) before distributing them to their actual users.
The User Profile feature is designed only for the first-time HotSync operation,
before you assign a User ID to a particular handheld.
1. Open Palm Desktop software.
2. From the Tools menu, choose Users.
