What You Can Do With Memory Stick Autorun - Sony CLIE PEG-SJ30 Application Manual

What you can do with Memory Stick Autorun

Memory Stick Autorun is an application which allows your CLIÉ
handheld to copy and start a specified application automatically when
Memory Stick media is inserted into the CLIÉ handheld. Removing the
Memory Stick media automatically deletes the application copy from
the memory of the CLIÉ handheld. Memory Stick Autorun functions as
a virtual memory to effectively utilize the memory of the CLIÉ
handheld.
Note
It is not recommended that you use the Memory Stick Autorun application with
the Address Book, Date Book, To Do List, Memo Pad, Calculator, or Mail
applications. Problems may occur if the data of these applications do not reside
on your CLIÉ handheld when you perform a HotSync operation.
Starting an application (.prc) on the CLIÉ handheld automatically
If you use a digital still camera that is compatible with Memory Stick
media, you can view your images by inserting the Memory Stick media
into the CLIÉ handheld. In such a case, you would use the auto-run setting
to start the PictureGear Pocket application on your CLIÉ handheld.
Starting an application (.prc) in a Memory Stick media
automatically
This setting is for automatically starting an application which does not
access any data, such as game applications, or an application which
accesses data in the CLIÉ handheld (not in the Memory Stick media).
Starting an application (.prc) using related database files
(.pdb, .prc) in a Memory Stick media
You can have the CLIÉ handheld automatically display a specific
image or file with an application such as an image viewer or a
document reader. You can set Auto-run when both the application and
its database files are on a Memory Stick media, and also when the
application is located on the CLIÉ handheld and the corresponding
database files are located on Memory Stick media. The desired data is
automatically displayed by inserting the Memory Stick media into your
CLIÉ handheld.
You do not have to install the Memory Stick Autorun
application on your CLIÉ handheld
The Memory Stick Autorun application is pre-installed at the factory.
