228 Advanced HotSync® Operations
Creating a user profile
If you need to configure several Palm OS
®
phones with specific
information (such as a company phone list) before distributing them to
their actual users, you can create a user profile to load the data into a
phone without associating that data with a user name. The User Profile
feature is designed only for the first-time HotSync operation, before you
assign a User ID to a particular phone.
To create a user profile:
1.
Open Palm Desktop software.
2. From the Tools menu, choose Users.
3. Click Profiles.
4. Click New.
5. Enter a unique name for the profile, and click OK.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each profile that you want to create, and
then click
OK to return to Palm Desktop software.
7. Select the profile from the User list and create the data for the profile
(e.g., company phone list, etc.).
