You can connect your HP Jornada to a desktop or notebook computer in three ways:
Use a sync cable to connect to a serial port.
Use a serial cradle to connect to a serial port.
Use the infrared port on your Pocket PC (if the desktop or notebook
computer also has an infrared transmitter).
Each of these methods works with all models of the HP Jornada Pocket PC. Serial sync cradle and additional sync cables are available as optional accessories. Both serial and infrared connections work with Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows 2000. Windows NT supports serial connection, but does not support connection by infrared.
Serial connections require a 9-pin serial communications (COM) port on your desktop PC. If the 9-pin serial port is in use by another device, or if your desktop PC has no 9-pin serial port, obtain an adapter from your computer’s manufacturer.
&RQQHFWLQJE\V\QFFDEOH

The infrared port on your HP Jornada provides a convenient way to connect to an IrDA-equipped PC without using a cable or cradle. Many notebook computers have built-in infrared ports; however, you may need to install and configure an infrared port on a desktop PC. To install the port, follow the manufacturers instructions.

When you install Microsoft ActiveSync, you are prompted to connect your HP Jornada and create a partnership. A partnership enables your desktop PC to recognize your HP Jornada when you connect and to remember the synchronization and file conversion settings you set.
You can connect your HP Jornada to a desktop PC without establishing a partnership; however, only Pocket PCs that have a partnership with a desktop PC can synchronize information between the two computers.
Your HP Jornada can have partnerships with up to two desktop (or notebook) PCs, for example, your home and office computers. If you regularly synchronize your HP Jornada with both desktop PCs, you can ensure that important files, contacts, and appointments are always up-to-date and identical on all three computers.
Although you can establish partnerships with two desktop PCs, you can synchronize e-mail messages with only one desktop PC.
A single desktop PC can have partnerships with many Pocket PCs or other mobile devices. This is useful if you have more than one Windows-powered device, or if several mobile professionals share a single desktop PC.

To prevent loss of data, you should back up your HP Jornada frequently. You can back up your HP Jornada in two ways:
Use ActiveSync to back up all data to your desktop PC.
Use the HP backup application to back up all data or only your Contacts,
Calendar, and Tasks databases (PIM data) to a CompactFlash card or to internal memory.
Backup files are not password-protected, even if you have set a password for your HP Jornada. If you store sensitive information on your HP Jornada, protect the backup file as you would any other file that contains sensitive information.

When you back up your HP Jornada using Microsoft ActiveSync, the backup file contains all the files, databases, PIM information, and RAM-based programs on your Pocket PC. The backup file is stored on your desktop PC.
If you have established a partnership between your HP Jornada and desktop PC, you can set ActiveSync to back up data automatically each time you connect. You can also back up your HP Jornada manually any time you want. ActiveSync lets you decide whether to back up all information each time, or only new and updated information.

The HP backup application gives you added flexibility in backing up your valuable data. With HP backup, you can back up all data or back up only your Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks databases (PIM databases). You can save the backup file to internal memory or to a CompactFlash card, so you can safeguard your data even while you are traveling or away from your desktop PC.
Backing up data to a file stored on your HP Jornada will not preserve your data if your Pocket PC loses power or if you restore your HP Jornada to the factory default settings. To ensure the safety of your data, it is recommended that you back up to a CompactFlash card or to your desktop PC.

Your HP Jornada gives you several options for connecting to a remote computer. You can use an optional CompactFlash card modem, an infrared modem, or a mobile phone. Each of these methods requires purchase of a modem or adapter as an optional accessory. For more information about compatible modems and accessories, visit the HP Jornada Web site at www.hp.com/jornada/accessories
&RQQHFWLQJZLWKD&RPSDFW)ODVKFDUGPRGHP
Your HP Jornada Pocket PC supports a variety of Type I CompactFlash card modems and network interface cards (NICs). Whether you use a Compact­Flash card modem or CompactFlash NIC, the card must be a Type I CompactFlash card. For a list of compatible CompactFlash cards, go to the HP Jornada accessories page at www.hp.com/jornada/accessories
Many NICs also require that you install a software driver. The card manu­facturer must provide a software driver for the HP Jornada Pocket PC. Follow the card manufacturers instructions for installing the card and configuring the driver for use with your HP Jornada.
.
.
The driver for the Socket Low Power Ethernet CF+ card NIC is preinstalled on your HP Jornada.
After you have installed and configured the card, the make and model of the card will appear in the list of modems or the list of network adapters when you create a new connection (see Creating an ISP or network connection later in this chapter).
When you are ready to connect, connect the CompactFlash card modem to an analog telephone line or a network connection using the appropriate cable. Follow the card manufacturers instructions to attach the cable to the port on the card.
Do not connect a CompactFlash card modem to a digital telephone line unless it is specifically designed for use with a digital line.

To connect to a network or the Internet, you need an account with an ISP, an account on your corporate network, or access permission to dial in to a specific computer.
For each account, you will need a user name and password provided by the ISP or account administrator. If you are connecting to a commercial ISP, you will also need to know the dialup telephone number and IP and DNS addresses (if required).
If you plan to use the account to send or receive e-mail messages directly from your HP Jornada, you must also obtain the following information from your ISP or account administrator:
a user name and password for your e-mail account (these may be
different than the user name and password you use to connect) the name of the POP3 or IMAP4 server (for incoming messages)
the name of the SMTP server (for outgoing messages)

Before you can use a modem to connect to an ISP or to dial in to a specific desktop PC, you must create a connection for that service on your HP Jornada. If you use an NIC to connect to a corporate network, you must configure your network connection. Your HP Jornada will recognize the connection once you attach the network cable to the NIC.

Because the data and files you save on your HP Jornada are stored in RA M, maintaining a continuous power supply to the HP Jornada at all times is extremely important. If your HP Jornada runs out of power, all information you have entered is lost. Although the Windows for Pocket PC operating system and programs cannot be erased, any custom settings and programs you have added are erased if you lose power.
Under typical usage conditions, your HP Jornada should operate for approxi­mately 8 hours between charges. Some functions, such as listening to music or using CompactFlash cards, use considerable power and may reduce this time significantly.
You should respond as soon as possible when your HP Jornada displays a dialog box warning of low power. If you continue to use your HP Jornada until power reaches a critical low condition, a and the device shuts down automatically. You will be unable to use your Pocket PC until you connect to external power for charging. Data will be retained for up to 5 days.
Because your HP Jornada is charged automatically whenever it is connected to ac power, simply connect the HP Jornada to ac power to recharge when the power is low. While your HP Jornada is connected to ac power, the Notification LED indicates the charging status:
Amber indicates that the battery is charging (connected to ac power).
Green indicates that the battery is fully charged.

The memory on your HP Jornada is allocated between storage memory and program memory. Windows for Pocket PC automatically manages the allocation between storage and program memory; however, in some situations (such as when memory is low), it may not be able to automatically adjust the allocation. If you receive a message stating that storage or program memory is unavailable, try the following solutions.
,QFUHDVLQJVWRUDJHPHPRU\
You can try any or all of these solutions to increase storage memory:
Buy an optional Type I CompactFlash memory card, and move files from
internal memory to the card. (For more information on CompactFlash cards, see CompactFlash cards in chapter 8.)
Delete unnecessary files.
Remove Web pages stored for offline viewing in Internet Explorer folders.
Remove programs you no longer use. See Adding or removing
programs later in this chapter. Clear program memory. See Increasing program memory, below.
,QFUHDVLQJSURJUDPPHPRU\
You can try any or all of these solutions to increase program memory:
Use HP task switcher or the Memory control panel to stop programs you
are not currently using. In most cases, programs automatically stop to free needed memory. However, in some situations, such as when a dialog box is waiting for a response, the program may not be able to stop automatically.
Clear storage memory as described in the preceding section. This will free
some storage memory so that it can be reallocated as program memory. Disconnect the sync cable or remove your HP Jornada from the cradle,
remove the CompactFlash card (if installed), and reset your HP Jornada. See Resetting your HP Jornada in chapter 9.

HP info exchange makes it easy to exchange essential information with an IrDA-equipped PDA device. The data fields of your HP Jornada Contacts, Calendar, and Tasks applications are mapped to the data fields on the PDA device to allow capture of important PIM information. However, not all of the data fields correspond between the two devices, so not all data can be exchanged. Some notes on the features and characteristics of the field mappings for exchanged data are listed below:
HP info exchange supports sending and receiving multiple contacts,
appointments and tasks. A number of Pocket Outlook fields are not used (e.g. Children, Spouse),
because they are not used by other PDA devices or are not supported by the v-card standard.
If the number of entries of important field types (e.g. phone numbers)
received exceeds the number of Pocket Outlook fields available to store them, the extra entries will be placed in the Notes section of the item.
For standard Contact fields (which support only single-line text), multiline
text on PDA devices is converted into single-line text, and all CR/LF pairs converted to spaces. All information is retained.
Your HP Jornada treats Business Cards received from a PDA device as
contacts. Contents marked as ”private” in other PDA devices are not sent to your
HP Jornada. Memos received from a PDA device are stored as text files in the My
Documents folder of your HP Jornada. The received memos may be renamed so that no existing memos in your HP Jornada will be overwritten. (You cannot send a memo from your HP Jornada to a PDA device.)

Because songs and audio files can use a lot of storage memory, you might want to store them on a Type I CompactFlash card. When you store songs and audio files on a Type I CompactFlash card, the files must be stored in a folder named My Documents. In addition, it is recommended that you use Microsoft Windows Media Manager for Pocket PC to transfer files from your desktop PC to the storage card, because Media Manager can automatically resolve security protocols for packaged content. For more information on installing a CompactFlash card and working with files on a storage card, see CompactFlash cards in chapter 8.
