Follow these steps: • Perform a HotSync operation with your old device and your old desktop software to back up your data one last time. • Install Palm® Desktop software from the CD that came with your Palm Treo 650. • During the installation process, perform a HotSync operation with your new Treo. • When prompted to choose a user name for your new Treo, be sure to select the existing user name for your old device. • Some third-party applications may be quarantined by HotSync Manager because they are not compatible with the Palm OS® 5.4 on your Treo. Do not manually install any quarantined files. The device might become unstable. Note: If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset to remove its associated user name. Each device you synchronize with your computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize with your old device, be sure to assign it a new user name.
