Receiving alerts
You can receive alerts on your handheld and in Palm Desktop software.
Receiving alerts on your handheld
When you use certain application settings, your handheld can alert you to any of
the following:
■ An appointment set in Calendar
■ A task entered in Tasks
■ A note created in Note Pad
■ An alarm set in World Clock
■ E-mail messages received in the VersaMail application
When an alert occurs, your handheld displays a reminder message. If you tap
Snooze in response to an alert message, your handheld reminds you of the item
again in five minutes. The Reminders screen displays alerts that await attention.
Receiving alerts from Palm Desktop software
You can set an option to receive Calendar event alerts from Palm Desktop software.
The feature is disabled by default, so you must enable it within Palm Desktop
software.
To enable an event alert from Palm Desktop software:
1. Double-click the Palm Desktop icon.
2. From the Tools menu, select Options, and then select Alarms.
3. Set Alarm Configuration options, either Always Available or Available only
when the Palm Desktop is running.
4. (Optional) To hear an alert sound as well as receive an alert message, select the
check box Play audible notification with alarm dialog box.
5. Click OK.
