96 Section 2C: Transferring Data
Data Transfer Overview
While you have many options for transferring data, Palm recommends that you take
advantage of the Synergy feature by putting your data in an online account—for example, if
you don’t have a Google account, we recommend that you create one and store your data
there (see “How Do I Get Names and Other Info into Contacts?” on page 154, “How Do I Get
Events into Calendar?” on page 172, and “How Do I Send and Receive Email on My Phone?”
on page 236). If you don’t want to do this, there are other ways to get data on your phone.
Consider carefully whether you’ll want to be able to access and change your data
somewhere besides your phone. If you do, do you prefer the other means of access to be a
website (for example, Google), or to be software that is installed on your computer? In either
case, you can set things up so that you can synchronize new or changed data between your
phone and the other data location.
You could also decide not to have a sync setup for your data, in which case you can use your
Palm profile to back up your data (see “Backup” on page 210). You can’t access this data
anywhere but on your phone. However, your data is backed up, and in emergencies caused
by a lost or stolen device, the data you stored in your Palm profile account can be erased
remotely by going to your Palm profile on a web browser on a computer. The data of your
Palm profile account can later be restored to a new Palm webOS phone.
