operation; what should I
check to make sure I am
doing it correctly?
■
Make sure the cradle/cable is connected securely.
On a Windows computer try these steps:
■
Check the Windows system tray to make sure the HotSync
Manager is running. If it is not, open Palm Desktop
software.

Make sure you selected Local USB or Local Serial, as
appropriate, from the HotSync Manager menu.
■
If you are using the optional serial cradle/cable, make sure
you selected the correct serial port on the Local tab in the
Setup dialog box. It should be set to the port where you
connected the cradle/cable.

click the HotSync Manager icon in the Palm folder and
enable HotSync Manager on the HotSync Controls tab.
