Making a backup of the data or applications on your CLIÉ handheld Sony recommends that you make a backup of your data in case of unexpected problems. Backing up your data will ensure that it can be restored again on your CLIÉ handheld, even if you have to perform a hard reset. Making a backup using Memory Stick Backup Use "Memory Stick" media and Memory Stick Backup on your CLIÉ handheld to back up data and applications on your CLIÉ handheld. b "Memory Stick" media (sold separately) is required. For details, refer to "Backing up your CLIÉ™ handheld data and applications: Backing up data and applications to "Memory Stick" media using Memory Stick Backup" in "Handbook" (PDF format). Making a backup using the HotSync® operation Data or applications on your CLIÉ handheld is backed up to your computer when the HotSync® operation is performed. If you need to perform a hard reset, this would erase all user data and applications stored on your CLIÉ handheld. However, the erased data and applications can be restored with the next HotSync® operation. Note Some add-on applications (not installed at the factory), and some application data and settings may not be backed up using the HotSync® operation. However, a complete backup of all data on your CLIÉ handheld can be made with Memory Stick Backup. Use Memory Stick Backup often to make complete backups. b For details on the HotSync® operation, refer to "Exchanging and updating files/data using the HotSync® operation (Other HotSync® operations)" in "Handbook" (PDF format). 4
