My handheld
displays the message
"Waiting for sender"
when it's near my
computer's infrared
port.
I want to
synchronize my
computer with more
than one handheld.

Your computer's infrared port may be
set to search automatically for the
presence of other infrared devices. Do
the following to turn off this option:
1. In the Windows taskbar, click Start.
2. Choose Settings, and then choose
Control Panel.
3. Double-click Infrared.
4. Click the Options tab.
5. Deselect the option Search for and
provide status for devices in range.
6. Click Apply and OK.
If you are using Windows 98, move your
handheld away from the computer's
infrared port.
If the computer running Palm Desktop
software synchronizes with more than
one handheld, each handheld must have
a unique name. Assign a user name to
your handheld the first time you
perform a HotSync operation.
Please be aware that synchronizing
more than one handheld with the same
user name causes unpredictable results
and, potentially, loss of your personal
information.
