Zire™ XX Handheld 17CHAPTER 2Synchronizing Your Handheldwith Your ComputerMaybe you always use your handheld on its own to look up phone numbers, enter appointments, and so on. But you can do much more with your handheld if you synchronize it with your computer.Synchronizing simply means that information that has been entered or updated in one place (your handheld or your computer) is automatically updated in the other. No need to enter information twice.Benefits of synchronizing• Quickly enter and update information on your computer and your handheld• Install applications• Protect your informationIn this chapterWhy synchronize information?What information is synchronized?Synchronizing informationBeyond the basicsTM
CHAPTER 2 Synchronizing Your Handheld with Your ComputerZire™ XX Handheld 18Why synchronize information?Quickly enter and update information on your computer and handheld. Synchronizing updates information both on your handheld and in Palm™Desktop software on your computer. For example, you can quickly enter a contact list on your computer and then send it to your handheld instead of reentering the information. IInstall applications. With just a few clicks, you can install certain programs on your handheld.Protect your information. Nothing is worse than losing important information. When you synchronize information, you create a backup copy. If something happens to your handheld or your computer, the information is not lost; one tap restores it in both places. For example, use your computer to quickly create dozens of contacts and then synchronize to transfer them to your handheld.Be sure to synchronize information at least once a day so that you always have an up-to-date backup copy of important information.Did You Know?During CD installation (Windows only), you can choose to synchronize your handheld with Microsoft Outlook on your computer.

For example, different family members can synchronize their handhelds with the same copy of Palm Desktop software by selecting the correct username in the upper-right corner when prompted. Just make sure that each handheld has its own username.

Zire™ XX Handheld 113CHAPTER 17Common QuestionsAlthough we can’t anticipate all the questions you might have, this chapter provides answers to some of the most commonly asked questions.How do I upgrade from another Palm OS® handheld?1. Synchronize your old handheld with your old desktop software.2. Install the new Palm™Desktop software. No need to delete the old desktop software first.3. Select the user name you assigned to your old handheld during the desktop installation. This will transfer all your information from the old software to the new software.4. Synchronize your new handheld with your new desktop software.5. If any third-party applications do not transfer to your new handheld, reinstall them. If you have problems with your third-party applications on your new handheld, please contact the software developer.Why can’t I find an icon on the Home screen?• Tap the pick list in the upper-right corner of the Home screen and select All. You may need to scroll down a bit, but you should now see an icon for each of the applications on your handheld.• Some of the applications that come with your handheld are not pre-installed. You need to install these extra applications from the CD.
CHAPTER 17Zire™ XX Handheld 114How do I save my info?Each time you complete an entry such as a contact, memo, or note, your handheld automatically saves the information you entered. You don’t have to do anything special to save your info. To protect your info and create a backup of your info, we recommend that you synchronize your handheld with your computer often.How do I know when I need to recharge my handheld?A battery gauge appears at the top of the Home screen. Check the gauge periodically to see if your handheld needs to be recharged. If the battery becomes low, a message appears on the screen prompting you to recharge the battery.Will I lose all my information if the battery becomes drained?If the battery is drained to the point that you cannot turn on your handheld, your information is safely stored for close to a week. In this case, there is enough residual energy in the battery to store the information but not enough to turn on your handheld. If your handheld does not turn on when you press the power button, you should recharge it immediately, for a few hours.How often should I recharge my handheld?We recommend that you recharge your handheld for at least half an hour every day. Ideally, connect your handheld to a power source every night and recharge it while you sleep. Also, you can conserve battery life by doing any of the following:• Reduce the brightness of the display.• Reduce the Auto-off after setting.• Use Keylock Preferences to prevent your handheld from being turned on accidentally.• Minimize use of the expansion card slot.•Turn the Bluetooth feature off when you’re not using it.

Zire™ XX Handheld 121UwagaStatic Electricity, ESD, and your palmOne™ HandheldElectrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to electronic devices if discharged into the device, so you should take steps to avoid such an occurrence.Description of ESDStatic electricity is an electrical charge caused by the buildup of excess electrons on the surface of a material. To most people, static electricity and ESD are nothing more than annoyances. For example, after walking over a carpet while scuffing your feet, building up electrons on your body, you may get a shock -- the discharge event -- when you touch a metal doorknob. This little shock discharges the built-up static electricity.ESD-susceptible equipmentEven a small amount of ESD can harm circuitry, so when working with electronic devices, take measures to help protect your electronic devices, including your palmOne™ handheld, from ESD harm. While palmOne has built protections against ESD into its products, ESD unfortunately exists and, unless neutralized, could build up to levels that could harm your equipment. Any electronic device that contains an external entry point for plugging in anything from cables to docking stations is susceptible to entry of ESD. Devices that you carry with you, such as your handheld, build up ESD in a unique way because the static electricity that may have built up on your body is automatically passed to the device. Then, when the device is connected to another device such as a docking station, a discharge event can occur. Precautions against ESDMake sure to discharge any built-up static electricity from yourself and your electronic devices before touching an electronic device or connecting one device to another. The recommendation from palmOne is that you take this precaution before connecting your handheld to your computer, placing the handheld in a cradle, or connecting it to any other device. You can do this in many ways, including the following: • Ground yourself when you’re holding your mobile device by simultaneously touching a metal surface that is at earth ground.
Zire™ XX Handheld 122• For example, if your computer has a metal case and is plugged into a standard three-prong grounded outlet, touching the case should discharge the ESD on your body.• Increase the relative humidity of your environment.• Install ESD-specific prevention items, such as grounding mats.Conditions that enhance ESD occurrencesConditions that can contribute to the buildup of static electricity in the environment include the following:• Low relative humidity.• Material type (The type of material gathering the charge. For example, synthetics are more prone to static buildup than natural fibers like cotton.)• The rapidity with which you touch, connect or disconnect electronic devices.While you should always take appropriate precautions to discharge static electricity, if you are in an environment where you notice ESD events you may want to take extra precautions to protect your electronic equipment against ESD.
