218 Advanced HotSync® Operations
Customizing HotSync application settings
For each application, you can define a set of options that determines how
records are handled during synchronization. These options are called a
“conduit.” By default, a HotSync operation synchronizes all files between
the phone and your desktop software.
In general, you should leave the settings to synchronize all files. The only
reason you might want to change these settings is to overwrite data on
either your phone or your desktop software, or to avoid synchronizing a
particular type of file because you don’t use it.
In addition to the conduits for the applications on your phone, HotSync
Manager includes System and Install conduits. The System conduit
backs up the system information stored on your phone, including
keyboard ShortCuts. The Install conduit installs applications on your
phone.
To customize HotSync application settings:
1. Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray
(bottom-right corner of the taskbar).
Tip: You can also click the HotSync command on the Palm Desktop
software menu bar.
2. From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Custom.
3. Select the appropriate user name from the list.
4. Select an application in the Conduit list.
