IMPORTANT Do not become distracted from driving safely if

operating a motor vehicle while using Device Software.

Operating certain parts of this Device requires user attention. Diverting attention away from the road while driving can possibly cause an accident or other serious consequences. Even occasional, short diversions of attention can be dangerous if your attention is diverted away from your driving task at a critical time. Do not change system settings or enter data non-verbally (using your hands) while driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before attempting these operations. This is importan t since while setting up or changing some functions you might be required to distract your attention away from the road and remove your hands from the wheel.

Microsoft makes no representations, warranties, or other determinations that ANY use of the Software Product is legal, safe, or in any manner recommended or intended while driving or otherwise operating a motor vehicle.

General Operation

NOTE The Voice Command application is not available in all

languages. See Setting up voice commands

Voice Command Control: Many of the functions of the Device Software can be accomplished using only voice commands. Using voice commands while driving allows you to initiate the command with a button and then operate the Device mostly without removing your hands from the wheel.

Prolonged Views of Screen: If you are driving, do not access any function requiring a prolonged view of the screen. Pull over in a safe

and legal manner before attempting to access a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Even occasional short scans to the screen may be hazardous if your attention has been diverted away from your driving task at a critical time.

Volume Setting: Do not raise the volume excessively. Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear outside traffic and emergency signals while driving. Driving while unable to hear these sounds could cause an accident.

Let Your Judgment Prevail: The Device Software is only an aid. Make your driving decisions based on your observations of local

conditions and existing traffic regulations. The Device Software is not a substitute for your personal judgment.

Use of Speech Recognition Functions: Speech recognition software is inherently a statistical process w hich is subject to errors. It is your responsibility to monitor the speech recognition functions and address any errors.

follow the activation steps provided by AT&T, or contact AT&T directly for assistance. If you plan to use email and web browsing, you need high-speed data service from AT&T in addition to your service contract. You may also need high-speed data service to send and receive multimedia messages.

TIP

You can buy an extra battery as a spare for long airplane trips or periods of heavy data use. To ensure proper functioning, be sure to use batteries from Palm only. Visit www.palm.com.

Charging the battery

Although the battery may come with a sufficient charge to complete the setup process, we recommend that after setup you charge your Treo 750 for three hours (or until the indicator light is solid green) to give it a full charge. See Maximizing battery life for tips on making your battery’s power last longer.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN Make sure the

battery is inserted before you charge. If you connect your Treo 750 to a power source without the battery inserted, nothing happens.

1 Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet. 2 With the arrow on the connector facing

up (toward your Treo 750 screen), connect the charger cable to the bottom of your Treo 750.

Maximizing battery life

Battery life depends on how you use your Treo 750. You can maximize the life of your battery by following a few easy guidelines:

• Charge your Treo 750 whenever you’re

at your desk, or charge it overnight each day. The battery in your Treo 750 has a much longer useful life if you charge it frequently instead of waiting until it’s fully drained.

• If you spend a lot of time using the

camera (if included), games, media players (including listening to music with wireless headphones using the built-in Bluetooth

wireless technology), eBooks, or other applications, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary.

• The wireless features (phone, email,

messaging, and web) on your Treo 750 generally consume more power than the organizer features. If you don’t plan

to use the wireless features on your Treo 750 for a while, turn off your wireless services (see Turning wireless services on/off). You can forward calls to a different number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail (see Forwarding calls). To see if your wireless services are on, tap the phone-off icon, and then select Wireless Manager.

scroll bar.

Closing screens

To accept the information you entered on a screen and to return to the previous screen—or to return to the previous screen without making any changes—do one of the following:

• Press OK .

• Use the stylus to tap or in the

upper-right corner of the screen. These buttons are not accessible using the 5-way.

Highlighting and selecting items

On most screens, one item—a button, a list entry, or a check box—is highlighted by default. The highlight identifies which item is affected by your next action. Use the 5-way to move the highlight from one item to another before opening or selecting it.

TIP

The best way to learn to use the 5-way is to experiment. Press the 5-way buttons and as you do, follow the movement of the border around the screen. The behavior of the 5-way varies slightly in each application.

The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is highlighted:

• Border: This rectangular border

highlights items such as an onscreen button (such as OK, Dismiss, or Hide), a check box, an option, or a web link.

• Reverse type (light text on a dark

background): This highlights items such as a phone number, an email address, text, or an item in a list.

• Stylus: Tap and drag the stylus across

the text you want to highlight. To highlight a word, double-tap it. To highlight a paragraph, triple-tap it.

TIP

When text is highlighted, you can press

Backspace to delete the highlighted text.

Using the action keys

After highlighting an item with the 5-way, you can select or activate it by pressing Center or by tapping the item with the stylus.

Highlighting text

You can use the 5-way or the stylus to highlight text on the screen:

• 5-way: Press and hold Shift ( or

) while pressing Right , Left , Up , or Down to extend the highlight in that direction.

The left and right action keys give you quick access to tasks that you can do on the current screen, so the action key items vary from application to application and from screen to screen. Look on the screen directly above the action key to see the action that it takes in the current context. In some contexts, these keys may do nothing at all. In most cases the right action key opens the menu, and the left action key activates a specific command, such as New or Edit. Remember that action key functions vary from screen to screen, so be sure to check the onscreen label before pressing the action keys.

Synchronizing information

CHAPTER

Synchronizing simply means that information that has been entered or updated in one place—your Palm

Tre o™ 750 smart device, your computer, or your corporate server—is automatically updated in the other. There’s no need to enter information twice. Some kinds of synchronization can happen on an automated schedule, so you don’t even have to think about it.

After you get into the habit of synchronizing regularly, you’ll know what a powerful tool synchronization is for transferring, updating, and backing up large amounts of information on your Treo 750.

Benefits

• Quickly enter and update

information on your computer and your Treo 750

• Protect your information

• Send photos and videos to your

Treo 750 from your desktop computer

SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION

This chapter discusses using ActiveSync® desktop software and other methods to synchronize your Treo 750 and your computer.

Synchronization enables you to enter or change information on your Treo 750 or in Microsoft Office Outlook

. Your info is then automatically updated in both places; there’s no need to enter the info twice. This is true whether you sync with your computer using ActiveSync desktop software (see Setting up your computer for synchronization) or wirelessly with your company’s Exchange Server using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (see Setting up wireless synchronization

By default, the info from the following applications is synchronized for either method of synchronization:

You can, however, customize sync settings to suit your needs and sync only some of these applications.

If you set up ActiveSync synchronization with your computer, information in the Favorites application is synchronized by default as well. You can also change settings to synchronize Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files, as well as pictures, music, videos, and other types of files (see Changing which applications sync). For synchronization of music and videos, you also must have Windows

SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION

CHAPTER

How do I synchronize?

There are a number of ways to make synchronization occur. You can install ActiveSync desktop software on your computer to synchronize in one of a number of ways, or you may be able to synchronize wirelessly with an Exchange Server. You can, of course, choose to sync both with an Exchange Server and with ActiveSync desktop software to maximize your sync options.

Synchronizing with ActiveSync desktop software

BEFORE YOU BEGIN Install the software

from the Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc, which came with your Treo 750. You must install this software even if you have already installed a previous version of ActiveSync desktop software. See Installing the desktop synchronization software for instructions.

If you install ActiveSync desktop software from the Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc, you can choose to synchronize in any of the following ways:

• By connecting your Treo 750 to your

computer using the sync cable; see Synchronizing using the sync cable

• Wirelessly, using the built-in Bluetooth

wireless technology on your Treo 750; see Synchronizing over a Bluetooth connection

• Wirelessly, using the infrared (IR) port

on your Treo 750; see Synchronizing over an infrared connection

Synchronizing wirelessly with the server

You can set up your Treo 750 to synchronize email and other information wirelessly with Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync; see Setting up wireless synchronization. If you choose this method, synchronization takes place automatically after setup; you do not need to install the software from the Windows Mobile

Getting Started Disc, which came with your Treo 750.

HOW DO I SYNCHRONIZE?

SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION

NOTE We recommend that you install

ActiveSync desktop software from the CD even if you synchronize wirelessly with the server. You need ActiveSync to synchronize pictures, videos, music files, and other info directly with your computer.

information on your computer using Microsoft Office Outlook or on your Treo 750, when you synchronize, you automatically update the info in both places.

• You have a backup copy of all your info.

Should anything happen to your Treo 750, your info still exists on your computer.

We strongly recommend that you synchronize your Treo 750 with your computer frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.

SETTING UP YOUR COMPUTER FOR SYNCHRONIZATION

SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION

TIP

If you want to synchronize with a personal information manager (PIM) other than Microsoft Office Outlook, you must install a third-party solution. Contact the PIM’s vendor to learn if software is available for your Treo

750.

Before you can synchronize, you need to install the desktop synchronization software and connect the sync cable to your computer. Even if you have already installed a previous version of ActiveSync desktop software, you must install the software that came with your Treo 750 on the Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc.

System requirements

Your computer must meet the following minimum system requirements:

• Windows 2000 or XP (later versions

may also be supported)

• 32MB of available memory (RAM)

• 170MB of free hard disk space

• CD drive

• Available USB port

Installing the desktop synchronization software

BEFORE YOU BEGIN If you are installing

the software on a computer at work, make sure your company allows you to install new software. Contact your company’s IT department for help.

1 Close any applications that are currently

running on your computer, including those running in the background. Your computer needs to have all its resources available to install the software.

2 Insert the Windows Mobile Getting

Started Disc into the CD drive on your computer.

3 Follow the installation instructions on

your computer. During installation, you connect your

Treo 750 to your computer and sync for the first time. Be sure to watch what’s happening on both your computer and your Treo 750. For more info, see Connecting your Treo 750 to your computer and Synchronizing information.

Inbox (POP or IMAP): You can use the Inbox application to enter settings for one personal (POP or IMAP) email account. You must manually retrieve email for an account you set up using Inbox. See Setting up an IMAP or POP email account

Pocket MSN (Hotmail): Pocket MSN enables you to access your Hotmail account. You can send and receive messages while connected to the data network, and you can review and draft messages when not connected, such as while on a plane. See Using Pocket MSN
