Step 6: Performing a HotSync
®
 operation
for the first time
What is a HotSync operation?
HotSync, which is a technology particular to a Palm OS
®
 platform
device, is the one-step operation that allows you to synchronize data
between your CLIÉ handheld and your computer, and back up the
CLIÉ data on your computer. For details, see “Exchanging and
updating data using a HotSync
®
 operation” in the Operating
Instructions manual.
When performing a HotSync
®
 operation for the first time, you have to
enter your user information both into your CLIÉ handheld and into the
Palm Desktop for CLIÉ software. After the user name is recognized,
you do not have to enter the same information again.
1
Press the HotSync 
 button on the cradle.
The USB Driver Installation Wizard starts automatically.

When the New User dialog box is displayed on your
computer screen, select the user name.
Select the same user name you entered in step 8 on page 33.
Note
Every handheld should have a unique name. To prevent loss of a user’s
records, never try to synchronize more than one handheld to the same user
name.
Press the HotSync button.
