My handheld
displays the
message “Waiting

it’s near my
Windows
computer’s

2. Choose Settings, and then choose
Control Panel.
3. Double-click Infrared.
4. Click the Options tab.
5. Deselect the option Search for and

I want to
synchronize my
computer with
more than one
handheld.
■
If the computer running Palm Desktop
software synchronizes with more than one
handheld, each handheld must have a
unique name. Assign a user name to your
handheld the first time you perform a
HotSync operation.
■
Be sure to select the correct user name
before each HotSync operation.
■
Please be aware that synchronizing more
than one handheld with the same user
name causes unpredictable results and,
potentially, loss of your personal
information
.
