Synchronization
Why synchronize information?
Why synchronize information?
Synchronizing means that information you enter in one place—your Palm®
Treo™ 750 smart device or your computer—is automatically entered in the
other; so there’s no need to enter the information twice. We recommend
that you sync your Treo 750 with your computer frequently to keep your
information up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.
The information from the following applications is updated by default each
time you synchronize:
Synchronize for the first time
As part of the first synchronization process, you install ActiveSync® desktop
software on your computer.

2. Insert the Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc into your computer’s
CD drive.
3. Follow the installation instructions on your computer.

4. When the install program asks you to sync, connect the USB sync
cable to a USB port on your computer and to the socket on the
bottom of your Treo 750.
Here’s how you can tell that synchronization is happening: Look for
the ActiveSync icon at the top of your Treo 750 screen and the
ActiveSync icon in the taskbar on your computer.
After you install ActiveSync
®
desktop software, synchronization takes
place automatically anytime your Treo 750 is connected to your
