1. Software Required for Synchronization

 

Palm Desktop 3.1 (or later) must be installed on your computer in order to synchronize your Palm OS handheld computer with a Calendar Creator file. This software is provided with your handheld computer.

 

2. Compatibility Issues Regarding Synchronization

 

Although Calendar Creator files can be fully synchronized with Palm connected organizers, certain situations and types of information require special handling. For example, Calendar Creator events with complex repeat rules may not transfer properly to the Palm Date Book. In addition, synchronizing events with exceptions may impact the handheld computer's available memory. The use of Calendar Creator's preset event categories, such as US Holidays, is not recommended if you intend to synchronize with a handheld computer.

 

Please see the Calendar Creator Help file for complete details before synchronizing your Palm OS handheld with a Calendar Creator file.

7.                   Notes about Printing

 

This product has been successfully tested with a wide variety of hardware and peripheral equipment. However, since Microsoft Windows relies on device drivers to communicate with the various devices on your system, issues may occur with one of these drivers, which cannot be controlled by Calendar Creator.

 

If you encounter problems while printing, contact your printer manufacturer to make sure you have the most up-to-date driver for your printer model.
