How Do I Migrate Data from Palm Desktop to Windows Mobile 2003? If you used a Palm Operating System (OS) based device before purchasing your HP iPAQ, you will need to migrate your data from the Palm Desktop software to Windows Mobile 2003. Migrating your data from Palm software to Windows is a two-part process. First, you will transfer the Palm data to Microsoft Outlook. Then you will synchronize the Outlook data with your HP iPAQ using ActiveSync. Note: When using the desktop cradle or sync cable, do not connect your HP iPAQ until you have installed ActiveSync and are prompted to do so. To migrate data from Palm Desktop to Windows Mobile 2003: 1. If you do not already have Microsoft Outlook 98 or higher installed on your personal computer, install Outlook 2002 from the Companion CD as described in "How Do I Synchronize Messaging, Contacts, Calendar, Favorites, or AvantGo?" in this document. 2. Insert the Companion CD that came with your Palm device into your computer's CD-ROM drive. Note: Microsoft Outlook must be set as your default e-mail program to properly synchronize with the Palm Desktop software. If you need to change your settings, open Microsoft Outlook, then click Tools > Options > Other tab and check the Make Outlook the default program for E-mail, Contacts, and Calendar checkbox. Click Apply > OK, then restart your personal computer. 3. Use the HotSync software located on the CD that came with your Palm unit to synchronize your Palm information with Outlook. Refer to the instructions that came with your Palm unit for help installing or using Hotsync. 32
