SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION—BASICS

Synchronizing means that information that is entered or updated in one place (your smartphone or your computer) is automatically updated in the other, so there’s no need to enter the information twice. We strongly recommend that you synchronize your smartphone with your computer or corporate server frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.

The info from all the following applications is updated by default each time you sync your smartphone with your desktop software:

Windows XP users: To sync your info, you must install Palm® Desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your smartphone—even if you sync with Outlook (sold separately) or another third-party application. See the User Guide for info.

Windows Vista users: Before inserting the Palm Software Installation CD, go to

windowsvista to find information about installing Palm Desktop software on Windows Vista.

NOTE You can download a trial version of Microsoft Outlook® and learn about discount offers by visiting:

www.palm.com/mypalm/755pverizon-bonus.

www.palm.com/

How each application syncs depends on your computer type and the desktop software you are

Calendar, Contacts, Memos, and Tasks sync with Outlook

Pics&Videos syncs with Palm Desktop Windows Palm Desktop All apps sync with Palm Desktop Mac Palm Desktop All apps sync with Palm Desktop

NOTE You can customize which applications synchronize; see the User Guide for information.

1. Connect your smartphone to your computer (see the

User Guide for instructions).

2. Press the sync button on the sync cable.

MOVING AROUND THE SCREEN

Left

Down

To move around the screen, you can use the 5-way navigator for one-handed navigation, or you can tap items on the screen with the stylus. With use, you’ll find your own favorite way to scroll, highlight, and select items.

The 5-way includes Right , Left , Up , Down , and Center

buttons.

Scrolling through screens

As on a computer, you scroll on your smartphone to move from field to field or page to page, or in some cases to highlight an item or option in a list. There are several methods of scrolling:

■ Use the 5-way on the front of your smartphone. Press Right , Left , Up , or

Down to move to the next field, button, or action in that direction.

■ In list screens, press and hold Up or Down to scroll one screen at a time.

■ When inside a text field, press Right or Left to scroll to the

Scroll arrows

Slider

next character or word, press Up or Down to scroll between lines, or press and hold Up or Down to scroll one screen at a time.

■ Using the stylus, tap an onscreen scroll arrow or drag the slider of

an onscreen scroll bar.

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.

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

Border glow: When an onscreen button (such as OK or Cancel) or a pick list

is highlighted, the item displays a glow around its border. Colored background: When a phone number, text, an email address, or a

web link is highlighted, the item is displayed as white type on a colored background.

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

or by tapping the

Accessing command buttons

In most applications, command buttons such as New, OK, and Details appear at the bottom of the screen. In many cases, you can jump directly to these buttons instead of scrolling to them.

5-way controls vary according to application, but here are some general rules that apply to most applications:

■ From a list screen, such as the Contacts list or Memos list, press Right to jump to the first

button.

■ From a screen where you create or edit entries, such as Edit Contacts, press Center to

jump to the first button.

■ From a dialog box, such as Edit Categories, press Up , Down , Right , or Left to

scroll to the buttons.

Selecting menu items

Many applications have menus to give you access to additional features. These menus are usually hidden from view, but they appear when you press Menu . To get the most out of your

smartphone, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the additional features available through the various application menus.

A range of options is often presented in a type of menu called a pick list, which can be identified by a downward-pointing arrow. Pick lists are different from the application menus previously described. The application menus give you access to additional features and pick lists let you select the contents for a particular field.

Use the 5-way to highlight the pick list, and then press Center to display the items in the list.

Connecting to a Bluetooth hands-free device

Once you set up a partnership with a Bluetooth hands-free device, you can communicate with that device whenever it is turned on and within range. Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions. Performance and range may be reduced by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.

NOTE Partnership is also know as paired relationship, pairing, trusted device, and trusted pair.

For a list of compatible hands-free devices, go to www.palm.com/treo755pverizon-support.

1. Press Applications and select Bluetooth , or tap the Bluetooth icon in the title

bar.

2. Select Bluetooth On.

NOTE The Bluetooth icon changes from gray to blue to let you know that Bluetooth technology is turned on.

3. (Optional) Enter a device name that identifies your smartphone

when it is discovered by other Bluetooth devices.

NOTE Use the same device name for all your Bluetooth connections. If you change the device name, you need to re-create any partnerships you already created.

has a predefined passkey, you can find it in the documentation for that device. Other devices provide a screen where you enter a passkey that you make up. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your smartphone and your hands-free device. We recommend that where possible, you make up a passkey of 16 alphanumeric characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the security of your smartphone. The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered.

8. After you finish setting up the device, select Done to return to Trusted Devices View.

CONNECTIONS WITH BLUETOOTH® DEVICES

With your smartphone’s built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can connect to a number of Bluetooth devices, such as a headset, car kit, printer, or GPS receiver, as well as to other smartphones and handhelds that are equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology. If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can also synchronize wirelessly or use your phone to connect your computer to the Internet.

You can create a list of Bluetooth devices that you trust to communicate with your smartphone. When communicating with trusted devices, your smartphone skips the discovery process and creates a secure link as long as the device is within range. Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions. Performance and range can be reduced by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.

The following steps explain how to connect devices like a friend's handheld or smartphone and have it added to your Trusted Devices list. If you want to connect to a hands-free headset or car kit, see “Connecting to a Bluetooth hands-free device” on page 34.

1. Press Applications and select Bluetooth .

2. Select Bluetooth On.

3. (Optional) Enter a device name that identifies your smartphone when it is discovered by other Bluetooth devices.

NOTE Use the same device name for all your Bluetooth connections. If you change the device name, you need to re-create any partnerships you already created.

4. Select Setup Devices.

5. Select Trusted Devices.

6. Select Add Device. The Discovery icon appears, indicating that the discovery process is active.

7. Select the Show pick list and select Nearby devices.

8. If the device you want to add doesn’t appear on the Discovery Results list, make sure that the other device is ready to receive a connection request (see the device’s documentation), and then select Find More on your smartphone to search again.

9. Enter the same passkey on your smartphone and on the Bluetooth device, and select OK.

[ ! ] IMPORTANT Some hands-free devices have a predefined passkey. If your device has a predefined passkey, you

can find it in the documentation for that device. Other devices provide a screen where you enter a passkey that you make

up. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your smartphone and your hands-free device. We recommend that where possible, you make up a passkey of 16 alphanumeric characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the security of your smartphone. The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered.

10. Select Done.
