Chapter 1

Welcome

Newton Utilities is a collection of software that gives you
more control over your Newton device and the information
you’ve stored there.

Software Manager gives you information about your
software packages, lets you move items between a storage
card and the Newton device’s internal memory, and makes it
easier to install and remove software packages.

Memory Manager cleans up your Newton device’s internal
memory and storage cards, freeing storage space and
alerting you to potential problems with your information.

Scrapbook is a place to store information you frequently
use.

With One Tap and One Tap Editor, you get quick access,
from anywhere in your Newton device, to items in the Extras
Drawer, Preferences, and special keyboard characters. You
can choose the items you want quick access to.

Each application is a separate package, so you can install
only the ones that you need and choose where to store
them.

Chapter 2

Installing Newton Utilities

Newton Utilities comes on a floppy disk. To install it on your
Newton device, you need a Macintosh or Windows-based
computer and the Newton Connection Kit.

If you need more information than is given in these
instructions, see the documentation that came with your
Newton device, your computer, and your Newton
Connection Kit.

Important The Newton Utilities packages can be installed

either in memory or on a storage card. However, to get the
most out of Newton Utilities, it is recommended that you
install Software Manager and One Tap in memory. The
installed packages are compressed and take up minimal
space in your Newton device’s memory.

To install Newton Utilities, follow these steps:

1 Insert the floppy disk into a disk drive.
2 Copy the contents of the floppy disk to your computer’s

hard disk.

3 Connect your Newton device to your computer using the

cable that came with your Newton Connection Kit.

4 On your computer, open Newton Connection.
5 On your Newton device, tap Extras ´ to open the Extras

Drawer.

6 Tap Card B.

2

7 Decide whether you want to store the package in the

Newton device’s internal memory or on a card, and make
sure the option labeled “Store new items on card” reflects
your choice.

8 On your computer, choose Install Package from the Newton

menu.

9 In the dialog box that appears, locate the Newton Utilities

packages and select the package you want to install.

10 Click Open.
11 On your Newton device, tap Extras ´ to open the Extras

Drawer.

12 Tap Connection k.
13 Tap the kind of connection you made between your Newton

device and your computer.
The package is installed.

14 Repeat steps 5–13 for each additional package you want

to install.

L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L

15 When you’re finished installing packages, you can quit

Newton Connection and remove the cable.

Chapter 3

Using Software Manager

With Software Manager, you can see information about your
software packages, move items between a storage card and
your Newton device’s internal memory, and install and
remove packages easily. You can also start Newton
applications with Software Manager.

Installation note

If you want to move packages from one card to another, you
need to install Software Manager in your Newton device’s
internal memory.

Software Manager at a glance

To go to Software Manager, tap SoftMgr in the Extras
Drawer.

4

You’ll see a screen something like this:

The package area lists
all the packages in your
Newton device and on
the installed storage card.

The detail area shows
information about a
selected package or
storage location
(Card or Internal).

The storage area shows
information about your
Newton device’s internal

Tap Connection to allow your
Newton device to communicate
with a personal computer.

memory and the installed
storage card.

When you select a package, you can tap the Action
buttonµ to move, remove, archive, or start (launch) it.

In the package area, memory amounts are given in
kilobytes(K). In the storage area, memory amounts are
given in bytes (1 kilobyte equals 1,024 bytes).

In the storage area, the triangular arrow indicates where new
items will be stored. To change where new items are stored,
tap the picture of the location you want.

L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L

Moving a package

To move a package, select it and tap the Action button µ,
then tap your choice in the list. You can move a package
between a storage card and internal memory. You can move
a package from one card to another by first moving it to
internal memory, and then to the second card.

Notes about moving packages

m To prevent unauthorized copying of software, Software

Manager does not make copies of packages. When you move
a package, the original package is deleted.

m If you want to move a package from one card to another,

Software Manager must be in your Newton device’s internal
memory.

m Moving a package does not necessarily move the information

associated with it, because some applications always store
their information in internal memory.

Space requirements for moving packages

If there’s not enough space for a package in its new location,
you’ll see a message that the area is full. You will not lose any
information.

If the location you’re moving the package from is very full,
you may need to free up a small amount of space there
before moving the package. You can free space by removing
software or information stored on that location.

6

Removing a package

To remove a package, select it and tap the Action button µ,
then tap “Remove package” in the list. A message appears
asking you to confirm your action. Tap OK.

You can also remove a package by scrubbing out its name in
the package area.

You cannot remove Software Manager itself in this way. To
remove Software Manager, use the Remove Software
command in the Memory section of Prefs π or in the Card
area B. See the documentation that came with your Newton
device for more information.

Important Once you remove a package, the only way to

restore it is to reinstall the package from your personal
computer or to restore the Newton device’s information
from a backup on your computer or your storage card.

L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L

Archiving a package

Each package you install in your Extras Drawer takes up
some space in the memory that your Newton device uses to
do its work (this memory is called RAM, or random-access
memory). If you have a lot of packages, you may have
difficulty working with large items or your Newton device
may run more slowly.

If you use an application infrequently, you can free some
RAM by using Software Manager to archive it. Archiving does
not remove the application, but you cannot see it in the
Extras Drawer. To use an archived application, you must first
dearchive it.

When an item is archived, the word “Archive” and the
location of the package appear in the Where column of the
package area.

To archive a package, tap its name in the Software Manager,
tap the Action button µ, then tap “Archive package” in the
list that appears.

You follow the same steps to dearchive a package when you
want to use it again. After the package is dearchived, it once
again appears in the Extras Drawer.

8

Naming a card

So you can more easily differentiate between storage cards,
Software Manager allows you to name your cards. To name a
card, follow these steps:

1 In the Software Manager, tap the card you want to name.
2 Tap the Action button µ, then tap Rename Store in the list

that appears.
A store is another name for a storage area.

3 Write or use the keyboard to enter a name in the box that

appears, then tap Rename.

Starting applications from Software Manager

You can start an application or go to another area of your
Newton device directly from the Software Manager, without
opening the Extras Drawer.

To start an application, tap its name in the package area, tap
the Action button µ, then tap “Launch” or “Launch &
leave” in the list that appears.

“Launch” starts the application and keeps Software Manager
available in the background. When you leave the application,
you come back to Software Manager.

“Launch &leave” puts away Software Manager before
starting the new application.

Chapter 4

Using Memory Manager

Memory Manager lets you keep your Newton information in
shape. You can perform a variety of checks and cleanups:

m run automatic checks that keep your Newton device and its

storage space clean and running at peak efficiency

m examine the Newton device’s operating system
m examine your In Box and Out Box
m check all of your information for damage
m find and remove information that belongs to applications

you no longer use

m delete old meetings and to-do items
m move names, appointments, to-do items, and notes to one

location (either a card or internal memory)

m examine all the information in your Newton device, item

by item

Using automatic checks

To go to Memory Manager, tap MemMgr in the Extras
Drawer.

10

To perform all of the automatic checks (scan system data,
examine In Box, examine Out Box, find orphan soups, find
orphan NTK data), tap the All Tests button.

If Memory Manager finds information that does not belong
to any applications stored on your Newton device, or if it
finds damaged information, you’ll see a message like this:

L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L

For more information about the messages you see, consult
the following three sections and the Appendix.

11

L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L

Understanding Memory Manager messages

To understand Memory Manager messages, you need to
know a little bit about how your Newton device stores
information and applications. For a detailed explanation of
every message you might see in Memory Manager, consult
the Appendix.

Application names Applications are stored with unique
names, so that the Newton device doesn’t confuse one
application with another. Memory Manager uses the unique
application name when it asks you what to do with
information it finds.

Soup Information belonging to a particular application. For
example, your Notepad notes comprise a soup. Each
application sets aside space for its own soup. Some soups
are identified with numerical codes, others with names.

Soup entry A piece of information stored in a soup. For
example, each card in the Name File is an entry in the Name
File’s soup.

Orphan soup Information belonging to an application that’s
not on your Newton device. When you delete an application
from your Newton device using the Remove Software
command, the information belonging to that application is
not always deleted. Memory Manager lets you remove that
information and free storage space.

System entry Information (such as preference settings)
that an application has stored in the Newton device’s
system area.

NCK Newton Connection Kit, a program that lets you
transfer information between your personal computer and
your Newton device. When you use NCK, Newton stores
some information about the transfer. If you later delete an
application, you can save storage space by deleting the NCK
information that corresponds to that application.

12

What to do with Memory Manager messages

To save storage space on your Newton device, you should
delete information belonging to applications that you have
no plans to use again.

You should not delete information for applications you have
temporarily removed but intend to use again (including
applications on storage cards that aren’t currently installed).

For detailed explanations and guidelines on what to do with
Memory Manager messages, see the Appendix.

Using options

When you tap Options in Memory Manager, this list appears:

L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L

m Scan System Data checks the system storage area for

information (such as preference settings) belonging to
applications that are no longer on your Newton device.

If information is found that belongs to an application you no
longer intend to use, you should delete it to save space.

m Examine Inbox, Examine Outbox check the In Box and

Out Box for items that haven’t been sent or put away. If
Memory Manager finds an item in your In Box, you have the
option of putting the item away (if an application that can read
it is on your Newton device) or deleting it. If it finds an item in
your Out Box, you have the option of deleting the item.

You should delete, put away, or send these items to save
space.

13

L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L

m Find Orphan Soups checks for information belonging to

applications that are no longer on your Newton device, and
gives you the option of deleting that information.

If you do not intend to use the application again, you should
delete the information to save storage space.

m Find Orphan NCK Data lets you remove outdated Newton

Connection Kit (NCK) records. If you remove an application
from your Newton device and no longer intend to use that
application in NCK, you can delete information about that
application from the NCK storage area. If you do so, that
application will no longer appear in NCK on your personal
computer.

m Delete Meetings by Age shows you how many old

appointments and to-do items you have. To delete items, tap
the Delete button and tap the option you want. (You can
remove items more than 30, 90, or 120 days old, or you can
remove all items.)

m Bulk Move Names, Bulk Move Dates, Bulk Move Notes

allow you to consolidate all your Name File cards, all your
Calendar and To-Do List entries, or all of your notes in one
place—either internal memory or storage card.

14

m Soup Walker lets you look at every entry in every soup

(storage area) on your Newton device. You can delete soups
or and individual entries. Soup Walker will not let you delete
information that your Newton device needs to operate.

List of soups (information
storage areas)

The entry area provides
details about one piece
of information stored in
the soup. You can see the first
four fields of the entry.

To move through the list of soups, tap the arrows ˛ at the
bottom of the screen.

To remove an entire soup, tap Delete Soup. (Do not delete a
soup unless you have removed the application it belongs to
and don’t plan to use the application again.)

To see information about the selected soup, tap Soup Info.
To move through the entries in a soup, tap the right and left

arrows below the entry area or tap the gray bar.
To remove the soup entry that’s displayed on the screen, tap

Delete Entry. (Do not delete an entry unless you have no
further use for that information.)

Important Soup Walker is intended for advanced users

who understand how the Newton device stores information.
If you aren’t familiar with soups, you should use the
automatic checks instead, to avoid losing information you
may need.

Moving a Scrapbook item to the Notepad

1 In the Scrapbook, go to the item you want, then tap Paste.
2 In the list that appears, choose whether you want to put the

item into a new note or copy it into the current note (the
note whose separator bar is at the top of the screen).

Moving a Scrapbook item to another area

To move an item to another area, or to move only part of an
item, follow these steps:

1 In the Scrapbook, select the item and move it to the edge of

the screen.
See steps 1–2 in “Adding an Item to the Scrapbook,” earlier

in this chapter, for instructions.

2 Go to the area to which you want to move the item.
3 Use the pen to move the item where you want it.

You can move a Scrapbook item to any area that accepts that
type of information. For example, you can move a phone
number from the Scrapbook into a phone field in the Name
File, or you can move an item that contains both text and
pictures to the notes area of a Calendar appointment. (Note,
however, that if you move information that takes up more
space than is available in the new location, the information
may not be moved or it may be truncated.)

Quick access tip: You can place the Scrapbook in the

One Tap bar for quick access from anywhere in your Newton
device. For more information about the One Tap bar, see the
next chapter, “Using One Tap.”

18

Chapter 6

Using One Tap

The One Tap and Editor packages give you quick access to
any applications, preferences, formulas, keyboards, and
special characters you choose, from anywhere in your
Newton device. You can also get access to some commands.
For example, the New Item button lets you add a new item
to the Notepad, Name File, or To Do List with one tap.

Installation notes

Editing pictures

The One Tap bar contains only pictures of items, not their
names. To avoid confusion when several items look the
same, you can change the pictures that identify each item.

Note: Changes affect the One Tap bar only. Pictures of the

item elsewhere in the Newton device will not change.
To change a picture, tap the item in the One Tap Editor,

then tap the Edit Icon button that appears. (If you have

Zoom box

m The lock controls whether the bar stays available on your

screen (locked) or goes away after you choose an item
(unlocked).

m Tapping the pencil takes you to the One Tap Editor.
m Tapping the zoom box moves the bar to a corner of the

screen (you use Prefs in the One Tap Editor to specify
which corner).

m Tapping X puts away the One Tap bar.

To move the bar, hold the pen inside the border and move
the pen. (When you move the bar, one of the pictures may
darken, but the change will not take effect.)

Important The One Tap bar “floats” on top of other

Newton areas. Some other Newton applications also use
floating buttons to provide quick access from other areas. If
you use more than one floating item at a time, your Newton
device may freeze.

If your Newton device stops responding, try putting away the
One Tap bar by tapping X. If that doesn’t work, you can
reset your Newton device. (See the documentation that
came with your Newton device for more information.)

If you use a floating button to get quick access to an
application, you can turn off its floating button and put the
application into the One Tap bar instead.

Troubleshooting

Consult this section if you experience problems using Newton
Utilities. If the suggestions here don’t solve your problem, try
resetting your Newton device (see the documentation that
came with your Newton device for more information). If you
still can’t solve your problem, see the Technical Support
information on the copyright page of this book.

I tried to remove a card, but I got a message that
the Newton device still needs the card.

An application on the card is in use. Reinsert the card. If the
One Tap bar is visible, tap X to put it away. If you still can’t
remove the card, tap every X that you see. If you still can’t
remove the card, an application on the card may be available
continuously in the background. Locate the application and
use Software Manager to remove it or move it to internal
memory.

Important Always reinsert a card that the Newton device

says it needs, or you may lose information stored on the card.

Software Manager was moving an item and
something happened to my Newton device. Now I
can’t see the item.

Try putting away Software Manager and then restarting it
from the Extras Drawer. The item should reappear.

My Newton device gave me a message about a
memory error.

If your Newton device informs you of a memory error, be sure
to tap Restart rather than Cancel in the message that appears.
Pressing Restart will clear your memory and allow you to
continue with the operation that was interrupted.

Appendix

Memory Manager Messages

Consult this section for a detailed explanation of the
messages that you may see in Memory Manager. Items in
triangular brackets <like this> are placeholders.

Note: The wording of the messages you see on your

Newton device may differ slightly.

There is a backup soup called <soup name> for
which an original soup cannot be found. If you
removed the original soup, you may not need the
backup soup. It takes up at least <size> bytes of
storage. Do you want to delete it?

A soup is a collection of information that belongs to a
particular Newton application.

You can back up the information in your Newton device’s
internal memory onto a storage card. If you later delete an
application and its information from internal memory, the
backup copy is not deleted.

If you remove an application and its soups from your
Newton device and don’t plan to use them again, you may
no longer need the backup copy. You can choose to delete
the backup soup to save space on your storage card.

The soup <soup name> appears to belong to the
application <application name>, which is not
currently available. If you removed the
application, you may not need the soup. Its data
takes up at least <size> bytes of storage. Do you
want to delete it?

A soup is a collection of information that belongs to a
particular Newton application. When you remove an
application, its soup is not removed.

Memory Manager found a soup that belongs to an
application not currently available on your Newton device.
You might have removed the application, or it might be on a
storage card that’s not inserted in your Newton device.

If you removed the application and don’t intend to use it
again, you should delete the soup to free storage space. If
you do plan to use the application again, you should not
delete the soup.

Your <In Box/Out Box> contains an item called
<title>. This entry takes up <size> bytes of
storage. Do you want to delete it?

Usually, items in your In Box are put away soon after they
are received, but sometimes, because of a software error or
other temporary problem, an item cannot be put away.

To save storage space, you should put away or delete the
item.

Your In Box contains an item called <title>, but
the application that it belongs to is not currently
available. Do you want to delete it?

To put away an item in your In Box, the application that can
read that information must be available to your Newton.

Memory Manager found an item in your In Box whose
application is not available. The application might be on a
card not currently inserted in your Newton device, or you
might have removed the application.

If you removed the application and don’t plan to use it again,
you should delete the item to free storage space. If the
application is on another card, you should keep the item in
the In Box until you insert that card; then you can put the
item away.

Some system-related information was found that
appears to belong to the application <application
name>, which is not currently available on your
Newton device. The data takes up <size> bytes of
storage. Do you want to delete it?

Many applications store information (including preferences)
in an area called “the System soup.” (A soup is a collection of
information that belongs to a particular Newton application.)

Memory Manager found information in the System soup
belonging to an application that is not currently available to
your Newton device. The application might be on a card not
currently inserted in your Newton device, or you might have
removed the application.

If you removed the application and don’t plan to use it again,
you should delete the information to free storage space. If
the application is on another card, you should keep the
information.

Newton Connection Kit information is stored for
the soup <soup name> (appearing in NCK as
<NCK name>), but no such soup exists. The
information takes up <size> bytes of storage in
your Newton device’s internal memory. Do you
want to delete it?

The Newton Connection Kit (NCK) uses information in the
Directory soup to control what you see on your computer
after you synchronize. Memory Manager has found NCK
information for a soup that is not currently available. You
may have removed the soup or its application, or it may be
on a card not currently inserted in your Newton device.

If you are no longer using the application and don’t want to
see it on your computer, you should delete the information
to save storage space. If you plan to use the application
again, you should not delete the information.

Your Names/Calendar information is split between
your Newton device’s internal memory (<number>
entries) and your card (<number> entries). Do you
want to move all the information to one place?

Some of the entries in your Name File, Calendar, or To Do
List are on a storage card and some are in internal memory.
You may wish to move all the entries to one place to make
them easier to find.
