QuizApp Installation Guide

Step 3. Installing Software Files

You are now ready to transfer the files from your computer to your PDA. To complete this step, you will need to start the Palm Desktop software that came with your Palm device. If you have not installed this software before you will need to follow the instructions that came with your PDA and install it on your computer. If Palm Desktop is installed, start the HotSync Manager located in the same folder as the Palm Desktop software by double clicking.

Once you start the HotSync Manager, go to menu bar and pull down the HotSync Menu located on the top of the screen between the edit and Users menus. Select Install from this menu and the Install Manager should come up looking similar to Figure 7.

Click on the Add To List button in the Top Center. This should bring up a file tree that will allow you to locate the .prc file that we told you to remember. Once you find it, click on it and then click on the Add File Button in the bottom right (see Figure 8). Once you click Add File, you will return to the Install Manager and should see the .prc file in the list just as in Figure 9.
   
Congratulations, you've done it. All that remains to be done is to place your Palm device in the cradle and press the HotSync button. In addition to all of your usual information being updated between your computer and your PDA, the files selected will also be installed on the Palm device. Once the synchronization process is complete, you can confirm that the operation was successful by looking in the application launcher window to see if the icon for QuizApp has been created.
