Tungsten™ T5 Handheld 11CHAPTER 1 Setting Up Your Handheld and Your ComputerUsing user profiles Only IT managers may need to use user profiles for their company. If you are not an IT manager, you can skip this section.Suppose your sales organization wants to distribute two dozen handhelds that all have a common company phone list, a set of memos, and several key applications. A user profile can be created to install this information before the handhelds are distributed to employees. When the employees synchronize for the first time, this common information becomes part of their user-specific information.A user profile enables you to install the same information onto multiple handhelds before each handheld is individualized with a unique username and user-specific information. A handheld that has a user profile installed can be given to anyone, because the handheld is not yet identified by a unique username. When the new user synchronizes for the first time, he or she gives the handheld a unique username. Handhelds that are synchronized with a user profile must be either new ones that have never been synchronized or handhelds that have had their usernames and information removed by a hard reset.IMPORTANT[!]NOTE

But you can do much more when you share, manage, and work with information between your handheld and a computer. Your handheld includes a large internal flash drive so that you can carry more of your documents, folders, photos, and music with you. View, create, or work on files on your handheld, and then copy the updated version back to your computer. Or use your handheld at any computer that supports standard USB removable drives to access and work on your files.Benefits• Quickly enter and update information on your handheld and your computer• Transfer and work with applications, files, and folders on your handheld• Increase productivity by having the files you need wherever you go• Protect your information by quickly backing up and saving files and folders to your computerIn this chapterProgram memory and the internal driveHow can I work with information?When would I use each method?Synchronizing informationUsing File Transfer to transfer info to your handheldUsing Drive Mode to work with info on another computerOther ways of managing informationRemoving informationRelated topics
Tungsten™ T5 Handheld 75CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Handheld and Your ComputerProgram memory and the internal driveYour handheld contains two types of storage: program memory and the internal flash drive.Program memory Your handheld includes 55MB of program memory for Palm OS® applications such as Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Memos. Information in the program memory is updated during synchronization. For example, if you enter contact information on your computer, you can synchronize to update the info in Contacts on your handheld, and any future updates to the info are included in synchronization.The info for each Palm OS application—for example, individual contact entries—may be stored in your handheld’s program memory, or it may be stored on your handheld’s internal flash drive. You can view and work with this information from within the application itself. You cannot, however, view any info stored in program memory directly using Files or palmOne™ File Transfer.Internal flash drive The 160MB internal drive works similarly to other standard USB removable drives. You can store any type of file, folder, or application on this drive on your handheld. View and access the contents of the internal drive using the Files application on your handheld, or view the contents using File Transfer (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac) on your computer. You can manage items on the internal drive in various ways: copying, moving, deleting, renaming, and so on, using File Transfer (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac), or Files on your handheld. You can also use File Transfer to save the contents of the internal drive to your Windows computer.Another method of storage that you may already be familiar with is an expansion card. You can view and access files or folders on an expansion card using the Files application on your handheld, and manage your files on a card using File Transfer or Drive Mode.You can also access the files on the internal drive or on an expansion card by opening the corresponding application and browsing to the file.Did You Know?The internal drive saves information on your handheld, including information in the program memory, even if the battery drains completely—none of your information is lost. Simply recharge to access the information again.TipTo view the complete list of Palm OS applications on your handheld, go to Applications and select HotSync. Open the Options menu and select Conduit Setup. All of the applications listed on the Conduit Setup screen are Palm OS applications located in your handheld’s program memory.
Tungsten™ T5 Handheld 76CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Handheld and Your ComputerHow can I work with information?There are two main methods for moving and managing information between your handheld and a computer. These methods are discussed in detail in this chapter.Synchronization Synchronization updates and backs up information between your handheld’s program memory and your computer. Information entered in one place is automatically updated in the other, and info in your handheld’s program memory is backed up on your computer.Use Palm®Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook to enter information on your computer in applications such as Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, and Memos. The info is transferred to the corresponding handheld application when you synchronize. Information entered in these applications on the handheld is likewise synchronized with the application in the desktop software.On Windows computers, Palm Desktop software includes both palmOne™ Media, which you can use to transfer photos and videos to your handheld, and palmOne Quick Install, which installs applications (PRC or PDB) for use on your handheld when you synchronize. On Mac computers, use the Send To Handheld droplet to transfer photos and videos and install applications on your handheld when you synchronize.When you transfer a file to your handheld through synchronization, the file, such as a video, may be converted for best use on (optimized for) your handheld.File Transfer (Windows only) Use File Transfer to transfer files and folders to your handheld’s large internal flash drive. On your handheld, to open a file on the internal drive, use Files and select the file, or open the appropriate application and browse to the file.File Transfer provides a live window to your handheld’s internal drive and copies or moves the items you select instantly; you do not need to synchronize. Files remain in their native format and are not optimized for use on your handheld. Unlike the program memory, your handheld's internal drive is not automatically backed up during synchronization—but you can use File Transfer to save the contents of the internal drive to your computer. On Mac computers, use Drive Mode to transfer info to your handheld’s internal drive.Did You Know?Keeping files in their native format is useful. On your handheld you can work with many of these native files, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and JPG files. You can also use File Transfer or Drive Mode to carry native files, even files that you cannot open on your handheld, to work with on a different computer.TipIf you have an expansion card inserted into your handheld’s expansion slot, you can view and work with files and folders on the card in the File Transfer window in exactly the same way as files on the internal drive—copying, moving, and so on.NOTENOTE
Tungsten™ T5 Handheld 77CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Handheld and Your ComputerWhen would I use each method?The method you use to move info onto your handheld depends on the type of info it is. Here are the methods to use with the most common information types.0Information in Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Memos, Note Pad (Windows only: Expense, VersaMail®)Use Palm Desktop or Outlook (Windows) to enter information on your computer. Synchronize to transfer the new or updated information on your computer to your handheld.Applications (PRC or PDB file) Use Quick Install from within Palm Desktop (Windows) or drag the application to the Send To Handheld droplet icon on your desktop (Mac), and then synchronize to install the application to your handheld.Did You Know?When you transfer files using synchronization, the files are always placed in the corresponding folder on your handheld—for example, the Music folder for MP3 files or the Documents folder for Office files.If you transfer files using File Transfer, save them to the corresponding folder so you can easily locate them—or copy or create your own folder structure to organize your project files any way you like.
Tungsten™ T5 Handheld 78CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Handheld and Your ComputerWord documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations Method 1: Use the Documents To Go application on your computer. Synchronize to install the files to the Documents folder on your handheld’s internal drive.Method 2: Use File Transfer (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac) to copy an entire folder structure of files to your handheld’s internal drive. This allows you to keep all of your project folders together with the same structure you’ve created on your computer. Photos and videos Method 1: Use the desktop Media application from within Palm Desktop (Windows) or drag the files to the Send To Handheld droplet icon on your desktop (Mac). Synchronize to install the files to the Photos & Videos folder on your handheld’s internal drive.Method 2: Use File Transfer (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac) to copy an entire folder structure of photos and videos to your handheld’s internal drive. This allows you to keep all of your photos and videos together with the same structure you’ve created on your computer. Music (MP3) files Method 1: Use the RealPlayer desktop application (Windows) to transfer the files to the Music folder on your handheld’s internal drive, or drag the file to the Send To Handheld droplet icon on your desktop (Mac), and then synchronize to install the files to your handheld.Method 2: Use File Transfer (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac) to copy an entire folder structure of music files to your handheld’s internal drive.

Tungsten™ T5 Handheld 179CHAPTER 9 Viewing Photos and VideosSupported file typesYou can copy a photo or video from your computer and save it directly on your handheld or on an expansion card (sold separately) inserted into the expansion slot. You can view photos in popular formats such as JPG, BMP, TIFF (uncompressed), and GIF on your handheld. On a Windows computer, when you copy a photo in a popular format to your handheld using the Media desktop application from within Palm®Desktop software, it is saved on your handheld in its original format. If you copy a photo in a different format, it is saved on your handheld in JPG format.On a Mac computer, all photos you copy by dragging them onto the Send To Handheld droplet icon are saved on your handheld in JPG format.To view a video on your handheld, on a Windows computer, open Media from within Palm®Desktop software, add the video, and then synchronize to send the video to your handheld. On a Mac computer, drag the video to the Send To Handheld droplet, and then synchronize. The video is converted to a format (ASF (MPEG-4)) your handheld can play and is optimized for viewing on the handheld.For both Windows and Mac computers, note that there are numerous video formats, and even many variations within the ASF (MPEG-4) format. Not all types can be converted to a format that’s viewable on your handheld. If you can’t open and view a video in the desktop Media application on a Windows computer, you won’t be able to view the video on your handheld. On a Windows computer, Windows Media Player is required for Media to play videos that have been prepared for playback on your handheld. If you do not have Windows Media Player on your computer, use the link on the software installation CD to download the application. (Download requires Internet connection; additional fees may apply.)0Did You Know?If you view a photo in a popular format from an expansion card inserted into your handheld’s expansion slot, the photo remains in its original format.TipIf you want to carry a video on your handheld to view on another computer, use palmOne File Transfer (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac) on your computer. These applications transfer the video to your handheld in its native format with no conversion, so you can view it on the computer in the format you prefer.NOTE

Tungsten™ T5 Handheld 256CHAPTER 14 Connecting Wirelessly to Other DevicesWhat is device discovery?Discovery is the process in which your handheld searches for other Bluetooth devices within its range (approximately thirty feet). As each device is discovered, it shows up in your Discovery Results. After you find the devices you are looking for, you can select the devices with which you want to connect. The Bluetooth application on your handheld can be turned on and off, and the application has a Discoverable setting that can also be turned on and off. The following is a description of setting combinations and the resulting discovery states:Bluetooth Off: When the Bluetooth setting is off, other users cannot discover your handheld. This is similar to locking your door with a dead bolt and a security chain, and disabling the doorbell. When Bluetooth is off, you cannot access the Discoverable setting. Bluetooth On and Discoverable No: When your handheld and Bluetooth are on and the Discoverable setting is set to No, you can receive connections only from devices with which you have previously formed a trusted pair. This is similar to locking your door with a dead bolt and disabling the doorbell, but any friends who already have the key can enter. By default, the Discoverable setting is enabled when Bluetooth is on. Bluetooth On and Discoverable Yes: When your handheld is on, Bluetooth is on, and the Discoverable setting is set to Yes, you can receive connections from any Bluetooth device. You are automatically connected with devices with which you have previously communicated, but you can refuse invitations to connect with unrecognized devices. This is similar to locking your front door with a dead bolt and enabling the doorbell. Friends who already have the key can enter freely, and if someone without a key rings the bell to request a connection, you can choose to open the door or ignore the request.
