Chapter 3 Managing Applications
To display the last-selected category of applications:
1.  Tap the Applications Launcher (Home) icon; then tap the Menu icon.  
2.  From the Options menu, tap Preferences.  
3.  In the Preferences dialog box, tap the box next to 
Remember Last Category.
4.  Tap OK.  Each time you return to the Applications Launcher, the handheld displays the last category of applications 
you selected.  
 
NOTE: If you do not select the Remember Last Category option, “All” applications display when you select the 
Applications Launcher.  
Setting Preferences for Applications
You can set preferences for individual applications in the Preferences dialog box.  Not all applications have preference settings.  
To set preferences for an application: 
1.  Open an application.  For instructions, see “Selecting Applications” earlier in this chapter.
2.  Tap the 
Menu icon.  
3.  From the Options menu, select Preferences.
4.  Enter the desired preference settings; then tap OK.
Assigning Applications to Buttons
Buttons preferences let you assign different applications to the buttons on the front of the handheld, and to the HotSync
®
 button 
on the cradle.  For example, if you find that you seldom use the To Do List and often use the Memo Pad, you can assign the To Do 
List button to start the Memo Pad application.
You can also change whether the full-screen pen stroke activates the Graffiti
®
 2 Help application or one of your handheld 
controls using Buttons preferences.
If you assign a different application to a button, you can still select the original application using the Applications Launcher.  
Changes made in the Buttons Preferences screen or HotSync Buttons dialog box take effect immediately.  
To change the Buttons preferences:
1.  Tap the Applications Launcher (Home) icon.
2.  Select All or System from the pick list in the upper right corner.
3.  Select Prefs from the menu.
4.  In the pick list in the upper right corner, tap Buttons.
5.  In the Buttons Preferences screen, tap the pick list next to the button you want 
to re-assign.
6.  Tap the application that you want to assign to the button.
  TIP: To restore all of the buttons to their factory settings, tap Default.
