• Restoring information from a backup
Note If you synchronize multiple devices with the same PC, each device must have
a unique name.

2. Tap the Device ID tab.
3. Enter a name.
Note The device name must begin with a letter, consist of letters from A to
Z, numbers from 0 to 9, and cannot contain spaces. Use the underscore
character to separate words.
