Getting Started
Setting Up Your HP iPAQ
Use the following steps to quickly set up your HP iPAQ and connect it to
your personal computer. The illustrations in the previous sections display
the specific location of the HP iPAQ components.
Step 1: Install the battery
1. Remove the battery by press the open button and sliding the battery
cover away from the HP iPAQ.
2. Align the battery connectors on the battery with the housing pins in the
battery compartment and insert the battery.
3. Slide the battery cover on until it clicks into place.
8 HP iPAQ Product Information Guide ENWW
Step 2: Charge the battery
CAUTION To avoid damaging your HP iPAQ or the AC adapter,
be sure all connectors are properly aligned before connecting.
The battery provides power for your HP iPAQ to operate. Your HP iPAQ
comes with a mini-USB synchronization cable, which you must use to charge
the device.
It takes approximately 2 to 4 hours to fully charge the battery the first time.
Subsequent charges may take longer.
1. Insert the USB end of the mini-USB cable into the port on the AC
adapter.
2. Install the appropriate head onto the AC adapter.
3. Connect the AC adapter to an electrical outlet.
4. Connect the mini-USB cable to the charging/communications port on
your HP iPAQ. The cable connector only fits one way, so do not force
it. If the connector does not insert easily, turn it over.
NOTE Whenever a replacement battery is inserted into your HP
iPAQ, press and hold the Power button for at least two seconds or
attach an AC adapter to turn on your device.

same information type elsewhere in the list.
Clear the check box for any items you want to stop synchronizing.
●
To change available synchronization settings, select the type of information
and tap Settings.
NOTE Does your company use a Microsoft Exchange server? If
not, during setup, uncheck the box marked Synchronize directly
with a server running Microsoft Exchange Server. To do this
now, you need to have the server address and your logon credentials
in order to sync to your personal computer.

Troubleshooting Help for Synchronization Issues
Following is a list of symptoms that may indicate synchronization issues are
occurring:
No ActiveSync chimes sound (or a gray icon displays), and there is no
●
activity in the ActiveSync window on your personal computer.
ActiveSync chimes sound, and the ActiveSync icon on your personal
●
computer changes to a swirling green icon. The “retrieving settings”
message appears on your personal computer, but the ActiveSync
connection drops prior to establishing the partnership.
ActiveSync is searching for a connection but none occurs. (The green
●
icon on your personal computer continues to spin.)
Synchronization has been established between your HP iPAQ and
●
personal computer but connection is dropped. (The green icon on your
personal computer stops spinning and grays out.)
Firewall or other network protection software message box is displayed
●
for ActiveSync to access the network or Internet.
If you experience difficulty while synchronizing your HP iPAQ and personal
computer, try the following solutions to troubleshoot any synchronization
issues:
Confirm that you are running ActiveSync on your personal computer with
●
a supported operating system (OS).
To get more information about the supported OS versions, visit:
●
www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile.
The latest version of ActiveSync is at:
●
windowsmobile/downloads.

●
WM2003 or WM2002 based device, so why do we need to
mention it?
www.microsoft.com/
14 HP iPAQ Product Information Guide ENWW
If you are using Windows Mobile 2003 or 2002-based devices,
continue using Microsoft ActiveSync 3.8.
If you are running ActiveSync 4.0 or later and personal firewall software
●
on your personal computer, please add ActiveSync to the firewall
program’s exception list.
(Firewall software, such as Sygate Personal Firewall, TrendMicro PCcillin Internet Security 2005, Norton Personal Firewall, McAfee Personal
Firewall, or Zone Alarm Security Suite may block synchronization.)
Refer to the documentation that came with your firewall program to
determine how to add ActiveSync 4.0 or later to the program’s exception
list. To further troubleshoot a firewall application and enable ActiveSync
4.0 or later, visit:
During the ActiveSync installation, if you inadvertently left the Microsoft
●
Exchange Server option box checked and are not planning to connect
to an Exchange server, follow these steps:
Connect your HP iPAQ to your personal computer. Be sure an
●
ActiveSync connection is established.
On your personal computer, click Start > All Programs > Microsoft
●
ActiveSync.
Click Tools > Options > Sync Options tab.
●
Uncheck the boxes for the sync items listed under the Server group.
●
Place a checkmark in the boxes under the Desktop group for those
●
items you want to synchronize.
Disconnect your HP iPAQ from your personal computer and wait for the
●
ActiveSync message confirming that your device is no longer
connected. Reconnect your HP iPAQ to your personal computer. Wait
for about two minutes to see if your HP iPAQ connects to your personal
computer.
On your personal computer, in ActiveSync, select File > Connection
●
Settings. Confirm that USB is selected as a potential connection
method.

Connect your HP iPAQ to a different USB port on your personal
●
computer.
Check your mini-USB synchronization cable. Consider using another
●
mini-USB synchronization cable if one is available to you.
Try synchronizing via a Bluetooth connection. Refer to the printed or CD-
●
based documentation that came with your HP iPAQ for specific
instructions.
Restart your personal computer and perform a soft reset on your HP
●
iPAQ. (A soft reset does not erase any of your settings, programs or
data.) Use the stylus to lightly press the Reset button. Your HP iPAQ

and HP iPAQ restart, reconnect your HP iPAQ to your personal
computer.
Uninstall ActiveSync from your personal computer and then reinstall it.
●

Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs > Microsoft
ActiveSync. Then click the Remove button and click Yes.
After trying the above solutions without any success in solving your
●
connection problem, perform a factory reset on your HP iPAQ. (A factory
reset clears all user-installed settings, programs, and data and restores
your HP iPAQ to factory settings.)
You can reinstall your applications on your HP iPAQ once the factory reset
is complete by using ActiveSync on your personal computer. Once your HP
iPAQ is synchronized properly, go to ActiveSync on your personal computer
and select Tools > Add/Remove Programs and select any programs you
want to reinstall.

Resetting Your HP iPAQ
You might need to perform a soft reset if your HP iPAQ stops responding.
The two types of resets are soft and factory.
Performing a Soft Reset
A soft reset stops all running applications, but does not erase any programs
or saved data.
NOTE Be sure to close all running applications before performing
a soft reset.
To perform a soft reset:
1. Locate the recessed Reset button on your HP iPAQ.
2. Use the stylus to lightly press the Reset button.
The HP iPAQ restarts and displays the Quick Launch screen.
Performing a Factory Reset
A factory reset clears all user-installed settings, programs, and data, and
restores your HP iPAQ to factory settings.
