information—the basics).

manager in the taskbar in the
lower-right corner of your computer
screen, and make sure that Local USB
is checked. If you don’t see the HotSync
manager icon, click Start, select
Programs, select Palm, and then select

hard drive. Double-click HotSync
manager in the Palm folder. In the

synchronizing through a USB hub, try
connecting the sync cable to a different
USB port or directly to your computer’s
built-in USB port.

TIP If you’re having trouble trying to sync
using an IR or Bluetooth connection, try using
the USB sync cable instead. If this solves the
problem, then check your IR or Bluetooth
settings (see Synchronizing information—
advanced).
