In certain applications—for example, Documents, palmOne Media, and RealPlayer from 
palmOne—you can open a file or folder directly from within the application. The application 
automatically displays files located in the appropriate folder on your handheld’s internal drive—for 
example, when you open the RealPlayer application, files in the Music folder on the internal drive 
are displayed—but you can browse for files located elsewhere on the drive. See the application 
chapters for information on opening files.

You can switch between applications at any time. Just press Home 

 and select an icon from 

Favorites or Applications, or press a quick button. Your handheld automatically saves your work in 
the current application and switches to the other application.

Using the 5-way navigator

The 5-way navigator, located at the bottom of the front panel, lets you access information quickly 
with one hand and without the stylus.To use the 5-way, press Up, Down, Right, Left, or Center.

The 5-way does various things based on which type of screen you’re on.

If you use a command to 
open a file from within an 
application, only files that 
can be opened by that 
application are displayed. 
For example, in 
RealPlayer, only music 
files such as MP3 or RMJ 
files are displayed.

You must use the stylus 
to tap icons in the input 
area or on the status bar.
