1. Back Up Your Pilot or PalmPilot Data

Before you upgrade your PDA, back up its data to your PC. If your HotSync Manager doesn't start automatically with Windows 95 or 98, start Manager manually (select Start, Programs, PalmPilot Desktop, HotSync Manager).

Place your Pilot or PalmPilot in its cradle and press the HotSync button on the cradle. Connection and backup are automatic. You'll see a status screen on your PC, and the PalmPilot will beep when the backup is done.
