If you are not an IT manager, you can skip this section.Suppose your sales organization wants to distribute two dozen devices that all have a common company phone list, a set of memos, and several key applications. A user profile can be created to install this information before the devices are distributed to employees. When the employees synchronize for the first time, this common information becomes part of their user-specific information.A user profile enables you to install the same information onto multiple devices before each device is individualized with a unique username and user-specific information. A device that has a user profile installed can be given to anyone, because the device is not yet identified by a unique username. When the new user synchronizes for the first time, he or she gives the device a unique username. Devices that are synchronized with a user profile must be either new devices that have never been synchronized or devices that have had their usernames and information removed by a hard reset.IMPORTANT[!]NOTESECOND DRAFT palmOne, Inc.

LifeDrive from palmOne 80CHAPTER 5Moving and Managing Info Between Your Device and Your ComputerWith its large hard drive, your device becomes a four-gigabyte (4GB) extension of your computer that you can take with you on the go. This extra capacity lets you carry many more of your documents, folders, photos, and music files with you.But the drive offers more than just storage capacity. With the LifeDrive™ Manager application, you can simply drag and drop files and folders to transfer them from your Windows computer to the drive, organize them the way you want, and work with them directly on the device. Any time you make changes, you can synchronize to ensure that the most current version of your information exists on both your device and your computer.Benefits• Quickly enter and update information on your device and your computer• Transfer and work with applications, files, and folders on your device• Synchronize individual files or entire folders with one button• Protect your information by quickly backing up and saving files and folders to your computerIn this chapterProgram memory and the hard driveHow can I work with information?LifeDrive Manager and Drive ModeUsing LifeDrive ManagerUsing Drive ModeSynchronizing informationOther ways of managing informationRemoving informationRelated topicsSECOND DRAFT palmOne, Inc.

LifeDrive from palmOne 81CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Device and Your ComputerProgram memory and the hard driveYour device contains two types of storage: program memory and the 4GB hard drive.0The info for each Palm OS application—for example, individual contact entries—may be stored in your device’s program memory. You can view and work with this information from within the application itself. You cannot, however, view any info stored in program memory directly using Files or LifeDrive Manager.0When you copy a file or folder from your computer to your device using LifeDrive Manager, you can choose to synchronize that file or folder.Another method of storage that you may already be familiar with is an expansion card. You can view and access files or folders on an expansion card using the Files application on your device, and manage your files on a card using LifeDrive Manager or Drive Mode.Program memory Your device includes 64MB of program memory for Palm OS® applications such as Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Memos, as well as email messages. Information in program memory is automatically updated when you do a full sync. For example, if you enter contact information on your computer, you can synchronize to update the info in Contacts on your device.Hard drive The 4GB hard drive (approximately 3.85GB of memory available to the user) works similarly to other standard USB drives. You can store any type of file, folder, or application on this drive. View and access the contents of the drive using the Files application on your device, or view the contents using LifeDrive Manager (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac and Windows) on your computer. You can manage items on the drive in various ways: copying, moving, deleting, renaming, and so on, by using LifeDrive Manager (Windows) or Drive Mode (Mac and Windows), or Files on your device.Did You Know?Your device saves all information, including information on the drive and in program memory, even if the battery drains completely; none of your information is lost. Simply recharge to access the information again.TipUse Quick Install (Windows) or the Send To Handheld droplet (Mac) to install applications to program memory.SECOND DRAFT palmOne, Inc.  Confidential
LifeDrive from palmOne 82CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Device and Your ComputerYou can also access the files on the drive or on an expansion card by opening the corresponding application and browsing to the file.How can I work with information?There are three main methods for moving and managing information between your device and a computer. These methods are discussed in detail in this chapter.LifeDrive Manager (Windows only) Use LifeDrive Manager to transfer files and folders to your device’s drive. LifeDrive Manager instantly copies or moves the items you select. You can choose whether to synchronize items you move using LifeDrive Manager, as well as whether to convert photos and videos for best viewing on your device.Drive Mode Use Drive Mode when your device connected to a Mac computer to move files between a computer and your device’s hard drive. Also use Drive Mode to open, move, or copy files on your device when it’s connected to a Windows computer that does not have LifeDrive Manager installed.While you’re using Drive Mode, you cannot use any other feature of your device.Synchronization Synchronization updates and backs up information between your device and your computer. Information entered in one place is automatically updated in the other, and info in your device’s program memory and on the hard drive is backed up on your computer.You can synchronize in one of two ways: do a full sync of everything on your device using the sync button on the USB sync cable, or sync selected items on the hard drive using the LifeDrive Manager. You can also synchronize to install applications to your program memory.TipBe sure to take your USB sync cable with you so that you can connect your device to another computer to synchronize, use LifeDrive Manager, or use Drive Mode. It’s a good idea to take your AC charger with you as well, especially if you plan to use Drive Mode to transfer files to another computer.TipEnter information for applications such as Calendar, Contacts, Memos, and Tasks in Palm®Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook on your computer, then do a full sync to transfer the information to your device.SECOND DRAFT palmOne, Inc.

LifeDrive from palmOne 83CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Device and Your ComputerLifeDrive Manager and Drive ModeBoth LifeDrive Manager and Drive Mode let you work with files and folders between your device and your computer. So when would you use one method or the other? Here are some common situations in which you would choose LifeDrive Manager or Drive Mode.LifeDrive ManagerLifeDrive Manager is available only on Windows computers. Use it in the following situations:• You are transferring files or folders to your device and want to be able to synchronize them.• You are transferring photos or videos and want to convert them for best viewing on your device. • You are carrying a file that cannot be opened on your device and you want to work with it on another computer.• You want to work on your device during the transfer process. With LifeDrive Manager, you can continue to work with information on your device as files or folders are being moved or copied. You cannot use any of the features of your device when it is in Drive Mode.Drive ModeYou can use Drive Mode on both Windows and Mac computers. Use it in the following situations:• You are transferring files or folders to or from a Mac computer. • You are transferring items using a Windows computer that does not have LifeDrive Manager.• You have a file on your device that you want to work with using a computer, but you don't want to copy the file to the computer. With LifeDrive Manager, you must first transfer a file or folder to your computer before you can open or edit the item. With Drive Mode, you can use the Windows Explorer or Finder window to open a file or folder directly from your device. So, for example, if you are a guest at a computer and do not want to put a copy of a confidential file on that computer, you can use Drive Mode to open and work with the file directly on your device.TipIf you are transferring a large video file and choose the Format for device option, you can interrupt the formatting process if, for example, you need to take your device with you away from you desk. When you reconnect your device and your computer, the formatting process picks up where it left off.SECOND DRAFT palmOne, Inc.  Confidential
LifeDrive from palmOne 84CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Device and Your ComputerUsing LifeDrive Manager On a Mac computer, use Drive Mode to move files to your device’s hard drive.WINDOWS ONLYOn a Windows computer, LifeDrive Manager provides a live window to your device’s hard drive. Use LifeDrive Manager to copy, move, and manage files and folders on your device. LifeDrive Manager copies and moves items instantly; you do not need to synchronize to transfer the information. With LifeDrive Manager you can work on your device even while transferring files. Using LifeDrive Manager, quickly move and carry large numbers of your important Office files, photos, music, videos, and other files on your device. Use the Files application to access and edit information on your device, or use Drive Mode to access and edit that information when you’re connected to a computer that supports external flash drives. LifeDrive Manager is installed automatically when you install Palm Desktop software. When the application is installed, an icon   appears in the taskbar in the lower-right corner of your computer screen. Right-click the icon and select menu commands to open LifeDrive Manager or to synchronize all sync items on the drive.When you connect your device to your computer and transfer one or more files or folders into the LifeDrive Manager window, a dialog box appears, asking you how you want the item to be treated. Select one of the following options:Copy  The items are simply copied to your device and are not updated during synchronization.Format for device If you transfer photo or video files to your device, you can choose to convert them to a format that works best on (is optimized for) your device. Converting a photo or video does any or all of the following, if necessary: changes the item to a format that your device can display; rotates the item so that it’s displayed correctly; and reduces the file to a size that fits your device’s screen, resulting in a smaller file size. In some cases, conversion might result in a lower resolution for the photo or video. TipWhen you copy a photo or video to your device, select the option Format for device if you plan to view the item on your device only. Formatting reduces the file size and fits the photo or video to your device’s screen. Use the Copy or Keep Synchronized option if you plan to transfer the photo from your device to another computer. This keeps the original file size, resolution, and file type intact.NOTESECOND DRAFT palmOne, Inc.  Confidential
LifeDrive from palmOne 85CHAPTER 5 Moving and Managing Info Between Your Device and Your ComputerIf you choose the Format for device option, the original photo or video remains in its unchanged format on your computer.If you are transferring a group of photo and/or video files at once—for example, if you select and drag them all together or if the files are all in one folder—your formatting choice applies to all of the files. You cannot choose to format some files transferred as a group and not others.Keep Synchronized You can choose to make the items you copy sync items—that is, items that are updated when you synchronize your device with your computer. If you select this option, any changes you make to the file or folder in one location (device or computer) are made automatically in the other the next time you synchronize. If you transfer multiple files or folders at once, your synchronization choice applies to all of the items; you cannot choose to synchronize some but not others. If you transfer a file or folder into a folder that displays the sync item icon  , the item becomes a sync item even if you choose Copy or Format for device. However, the item synchronizes to the corresponding sync folder on your computer, not to the original file or folder. So you have two versions of the file or folder on your computer: the original one in its original location (which does not sync), and the new one in the sync folder (which does sync).For example, suppose you copy a music file called MySong in the MyMusic folder on your computer to the Music folder on your device, which you have set as a sync folder. You choose Copy during the transfer. Because the Music folder is a sync folder, when you synchronize, a copy of the Music folder containing the file MySong appears on your computer. However, the original file MySong remains in the MyMusic folder on your computer and is not synchronized.Transferring information using the LifeDrive Manager iconIf you want your files or folders to go to a default location on your device, you can simply drag the items onto the LifeDrive Manager icon on your computer. LifeDrive Manager copies the items to a specific location on your device’s drive depending on the file types.NOTE»Key TermSync item A file or folder on your device’s hard drive that you choose to synchronize.

LifeDrive from palmOne 333CHAPTER 18 Sending and Receiving Email MessagesAbout email accountsThe VersaMail application is software that lets you use your device to access email from an account with an email provider (either an Internet service provider, or ISP, such as Earthlink or Yahoo!, or a wireless carrier) or from your corporate email account. For each email account you want to access, you must set up an account in VersaMail. For example, if you have an Earthlink account and a corporate account, set up one account for each in VersaMail. After you set up an account, you can send and receive email directly to and from your device wirelessly. Or you can download new messages from your computer to your device—and upload messages from your device to be sent from your computer’s email program—when you synchronize. You must have an account with an email provider or a corporate account. VersaMail works with these accounts to transfer messages to and from your device. The application is not an email service provider.Using an email providerIf you are setting up a new email account and have a well-known email provider (ISP or wireless carrier) such as Earthlink or Yahoo!, many of the settings you need during account setup are automatically filled in. For other ISPs, you need the following information:• Your email address and password• The protocol used for incoming mail, such as Post Office Protocol (POP) or Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) Some free web-based email providers such as Hotmail do not support either the POP or the IMAP protocol. You cannot use VersaMail to download messages to your device from an account with one of these providers.• The name of the incoming mail serverDid You Know?You can create up to eight email accounts.Did You Know?The VersaMail application provides strong 128-bit AES encryption for your password.TipGo to your email provider’s website or contact their customer support to obtain the setup information you need.IMPORTANT[!]NOTESECOND DRAFT palmOne, Inc.

See the next section for details.To set up a corporate email account, you need certain information. Check with your company’s server administrator to obtain the following:Username and password This might be your Windows username and password, your Lotus Notes ID username and password, or something else. Protocol Most corporate mail servers use the IMAP protocol for retrieving mail. In rare cases, your company server may use the POP protocol.  Some corporate mail servers do not use either protocol. In this case, you cannot send and receive email wirelessly using VersaMail. You can, however, synchronize email on your device with email in Outlook or Lotus Notes on your computer (Windows only).Incoming and outgoing mail server settings Check with your company’s server administrator to obtain these settings. If your corporate mail system uses Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, you may be able to set up an account that uses Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync® on your device.

LifeDrive from palmOne 335CHAPTER 18 Sending and Receiving Email MessagesVPNsIf you want to access email on your device using your corporate email account, you may need to set up a virtual private network (VPN) on your device. A VPN enables you to log in to your corporate mail server through the company’s firewall (security layer). Without a VPN, you cannot pass through the firewall to gain access to the mail server.You need to set up a VPN to access corporate email in either of the following situations:• Your company’s wireless local area network (LAN) is located outside the firewall.• Your company’s wireless LAN is located inside the firewall, but you are trying to access the network from outside the firewall (for example, from a public location or at home).Check with your company’s server administrator to see if a VPN is required for you to access the corporate network.Your device software installation CD contains a link to purchase and download VPN software for the device. Once you purchase and download the software, you set up a VPN connection in Preferences on your device. If you are using a VPN connection, make sure the connection is on in VersaMail. In the message list, open the Options menu, and then select Turn VPN On. The Auto Sync feature in VersaMail may not work with a VPN connection.

You have three setup options:• On a Windows computer, if the email account is already set up on your computer—for example, if you use Outlook Express on your computer to access your Earthlink account—you can transfer the account settings to your device in just a few steps.• On a Windows computer, if this is a new account, you can quickly set up the account on your computer and synchronize the information to your device. The steps for setting up an account on your computer depend on whether you are using a common email provider such as Earthlink or Yahoo! or whether you are using a less common provider.• For either a new or an existing account, you can set up the account directly on your device.If you are setting up a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync® account to synchronize email and Calendar information with info in Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, see Working with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync® for setup instructions.You can open VersaMail account setup in one of two ways:• During software CD installation, select the option to set up your email software on the final installation screen.• From the Start menu, select Programs, navigate to the palmOne program group, and then select VersaMail Setup.
