Enabling error reporting
Error Reporting sends info that helps
diagnose application errors for devices
running Windows Mobile software. When
an error is detected, a text file is created.
You can review the file and choose
whether you want it delivered to technical
support. The information is used by
programming groups at Microsoft for
quality control and is not used for tracking
individual users or installations for any
marketing purpose. The info that is
collected is technical info about the state of
your system when the error occurred. No
Your smartphone must be connected to
your computer when you send the error
report—provided your computer is
connected to the Internet.

If you have questions about
Windows Mobile, you can go to the Microsoft
Windows Mobile website. Search for Palm
devices or Pocket PCs for information.
DID YOU KNOW?
For information on transferring your info
from a previous Windows Mobile® device
or from a Palm OS® device to your new
Palm® Treo™ 750v smartphone, visit

COMMON QUESTIONS
Reinstalling the
desktop software
If you have problems synchronizing using
ActiveSync® desktop software, you may
need to reinstall the software.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN Make sure your
computer profile includes administrator
rights to install software. In large
organizations, these are usually granted
by the system administrator.
You must install the version of
ActiveSync desktop software that came
with your smartphone on the Windows
Mobile Getting Started Disc. Other
versions may not work with this
smartphone.
The Windows Mobile Getting
Started Disc installs the software and drivers
that let you synchronize with Microsoft Office
Outlook®. If you want to synchronize with a
different personal information manager (PIM),
you must install a third-party solution. Contact
the PIM’s vendor to learn if software
is available for your Treo 750v smartphone.
DID YOU KNOW?
1 Shut down your computer, and then
turn it on again.
2 On your computer, click Start > Control
Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
3 Remove Microsoft ActiveSync if it is on
your computer.
4 Quit any active applications, including
virus scanners and Internet security
applications.
5 Insert the Windows Mobile Getting
Started Disc into your computer’s CD
drive and follow the onscreen
instructions.

slot.
You can also do a soft reset by removing

COMMON QUESTIONS
Some third-party applications do not
create a backup on your computer when you
synchronize. If you do a hard reset, you may
lose info in these applications and you need to
reinstall the application on your smartphone
after the hard reset. Please contact the
developer to find out if your info is backed up
during synchronization.

DID YOU KNOW?
A hard reset can tell you whether a
problem stems from your smartphone or
from an application installed on it. If you do
not experience the problem after you
perform a hard reset, the problem may be
related to software you installed. See
Third-party applications for suggestions on
diagnosing third-party software issues.

later. Applications written for earlier versions
can have performance problems.

version of the software before purchasing it,
you can test it first to make sure it works
properly.
