CHAPTER
Before you can synchronize, you need to
install the desktop synchronization
software and connect the sync cable to
your computer. Even if you have already
installed a previous version of ActiveSync
desktop software, you must install the
software that came with your Treo 750 on
the Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc.
System requirements
Your computer must meet the following
minimum system requirements:
• Windows 2000 or XP (later versions
may also be supported)
• 32MB of available memory (RAM)
• 170MB of free hard disk space
• CD drive
• Available USB port
Installing the desktop synchronization
software
BEFORE YOU BEGIN If you are installing
the software on a computer at work, make
sure your company allows you to install
new software. Contact your company’s
IT department for help.
1 Close any applications that are currently
running on your computer, including
those running in the background. Your
computer needs to have all its
resources available to install the
software.
2 Insert the Windows Mobile Getting
Started Disc into the CD drive on your
computer.
3 Follow the installation instructions on
your computer.
During installation, you connect your
Treo 750 to your computer and sync for
the first time. Be sure to watch what’s
happening on both your computer and
your Treo 750. For more info, see
Connecting your Treo 750 to your
computer and Synchronizing
information.
TIP If you want to synchronize with a personal
information manager (PIM) other than
Microsoft Office Outlook, you must install a
third-party solution. Contact the PIM’s vendor
to learn if software is available for your Treo
750.
