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

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 your computer is infrared-enabled, 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.
Be sure to select the correct user name
before each 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.
