to install add-on software on your handheld using a mac computer:
1. on your mac computer, copy or download the application you want to install into the add-on folder in your palm folder.
2. double-click the hotsync manager icon in the palm folder.
3. from the hotsync menu, select install handheld files.
4. from the user pop-up menu, select the name that corresponds to your handheld.
5. click add to list.
if the file you want to install is not listed in the dialog box, go to the folder to which you copied the file. most handheld application files have the extension prc or pdb.
6. select the application(s) you want to install.
7. click add file to add the selected application to the install handheld files list.
tip you can also drag files, or folders of files, to the list in the install handheld files dialog box. the files are copied to the files to install folder.
8. if you need to change the destination of the application you are installing, click change destination in the install handheld files window, and then use the arrows to move applications between your handheld and an expansion card.
9. click ok to close the change destination window.
10. close the install handheld files window.
11. perform a hotsync operation to install the selected application(s) on your handheld. see “conducting hotsync operations” in chapter 15 for details.
files that remain in the list after you perform a hotsync operation were not installed. this can happen if the file type was not recognized during the hotsync operation. expansion cards may hold applications that use files other than the palm application files. for your handheld to recognize such a file, you must first launch the associated application at least once.
