Upgrading from another Palm OS®device

NOTE If you’re setting up your first Palm

device, skip this section.

You can transfer all compatible apps and info from your previous Palm OS device to your new Treo 755p smartphone. This includes your calendar events, contacts, memos, and tasks, as well as your app settings, any compatible third-party apps, and any files that are compatible with the Palm OS software version 5.4.9 on your new Treo smartphone.

Incompatible files are quarantined. Quarantined files are not installed on your smartphone; they are placed in a new folder on your computer: C:\Program Files\Palm\device name\PalmOS5 Incompatible Apps. (On some systems Palm may be replaced with palmOne or Handspring.)

TIP

Some third-party utilities let you back up your old device’s info onto an expansion card and then transfer the info to your Treo 755p smartphone. We do not recommend this method, because any incompatible apps are also transferred to your smartphone.

1 Calculate how much space your apps

and info occupy on your previous Palm OS device:

• From Applications View, open the

menus.

• Select Info on the App menu.

• At the bottom of the screen, select

Size.

• Look at the numbers on the Free

Space line and subtract the number

on the left from the number on the

right to calculate the space used. For

example, on the device shown on the

next page, 22.4 – 17.5 = 4.9. This

means that the space used on this

device is 4.9MB.

IMPORTANT Do not sync your new Treo

2 If the space used on your previous

device is 60MB or less, go to step 3. If the space used is greater than 60MB, do any of the following to reduce the space used before going to the next step:

• Delete any third-party apps that you

no longer use.

• Move large files, such as eBooks and

images, to an expansion card.

• Move third-party apps to an expansion

card.

• Purge old info in apps such as

Calendar (Date Book), Tasks (To Do), and email. For instructions, see the documentation that came with your previous device.

5 When prompted, do the following

during the installation process:

• Connect your new smartphone to

your computer (see the Read This First booklet).

• Indicate whether you want to sync

only the info in your PIM apps (Calendar, Contacts, Memos, and Tasks) or all info and apps (excluding apps known to be incompatible).

• Select a device name for your new

smartphone; be sure to select the same name that you used for your old device. (This is the name that appears in the User list in Palm Desktop software.)

If any third-party apps are quarantined during the installation, do not manually install them. Contact the developer for software updates and info about compatibility with your new smartphone.

Synchronizing information

Synchronizing means that info you enter in one place (your smartphone or your computer) appears in the other, so there’s no need to enter the info twice. We recommend that you sync your smartphone with your computer frequently to keep your info up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.

The info from all the following applications is updated by default each time you sync:

Maximizing battery life

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

TIP

You can buy an extra battery as a spare for long airplane trips or periods of heavy use. To purchase batteries that are compatible with your smartphone, go to http://go.palm.com/ treo755p/.

• Charge your smartphone whenever

you’re at your desk, or charge it overnight. The lithium-ion battery has a much longer useful life when it is topped off frequently, versus charging it after it is fully drained.

• Your smartphone’s wireless features

(phone, email, messaging, and web) and media features (camera, media

players, eBooks, and games) consume more power than its organizer features. If you spend a lot of time using the wireless and media features, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary.

• If you don’t plan to use the wireless

features on your smartphone for a while, turn off your phone (see “Turning your phone on and off” on page 16) and let all calls be picked up by voicemail.

• As with any mobile phone, if you are in

an area with no wireless coverage, your smartphone searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to an area of better coverage, temporarily turn off your phone. While your phone is off, you can continue to use your smartphone’s nonwireless features.

• Turn down the screen brightness.

• Decrease the settings in Power

Preferences and turn off Beam Receive.

• Turn off the Bluetooth

feature if you’re

not using it.
