36 Section 1C: Synchronizing Information
3. Install the new desktop synchronization software from the Palm Software Installation CD
(see “Installing the Desktop Synchronization Software” on page 37).
4. During the installation process, synchronize your new Centro device with your new
desktop synchronization software as instructed. When prompted, do the following:
䡲 Connect your new device to your computer (see “Connecting Your
Palm Centro™ Smart Device to Your Computer” on page 38).
䡲 Indicate whether you want to sync all applications or only PIM (personal information
management) applications.
䡲 Select a device name for your new device; 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.)
5. (Mac users only) If you have pictures on your old device, copy them from your old device
to an expansion card or beam them to your new Centro device.
6. If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset to remove its
associated device name. (See the documentation that came with your old device for
instructions on performing a hard reset.) Each device you synchronize with your
computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize your old device
with your computer, be sure to assign it a new name.
If any third-party applications are quarantined during the installation, do not manually
install any of the quarantined files. Contact the third-party developer for software updates
and information about compatibility with your new device.
Important
Do not synchronize your new Centro smart device with any previous
versions of Palm Desktop software.
