The TeamAgenda Palm Conduits are installed using the TeamAgenda Installer program. However, before you can synchronize with the Palm, for each TeamAgenda conduit you have installed you must:
- turn on synchronization;
- define the conduit's specific settings; and
- choose the TeamAgenda agenda file the Palm should synchronize with.
Note: After installing the TeamAgenda Palm conduits on Macintosh, there may be conflicts with previously installed conduits. You should resolve these conflicts before continuing; see Resolving Palm Conduit Conflicts on Macintosh.
To open the TeamAgenda Conduit Settings dialog box:
1. Right-click on the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows Taskbar Tray and select "Custom..."
2. Select a TeamAgenda conduit and press the Change button.
1. Open the HotSync Manager program.
2. Choose Conduit Settings from the HotSync menu.
3. In the Conduit Settings window, select a TA conduit then click the Conduit Settings button.
To set up the TeamAgenda Date Book conduit:
In the Settings dialog box:
1. Click "Synchronize" to turn on synchronization, or click "Do Nothing" to turn it off.
2. Check "Generate a log entry for every transaction during synchronization (results in slower synchronization)" if you want to keep a log file of all transactions.
This is needed only if you are trying to track synchronization problems. Normally this should not be checked.
3. Specify the time period to be synchronized: select one of three options.
To set a specific time period for synchronization (e.g., May 1, 2001 to June 30, 2001):
- Click the "Fixed" button;
- Enter a specific starting date (e.g., "From: May 1, 2001");
- Enter a specific ending date (e.g., "To: June 30, 2001").
All commitments included in this range will be synchronized.
To set a time period relative to the synchronization date (e.g., 1 week before and 2 weeks after):
- Click the "Relative to Synchronization Date" button;
- Enter the number of Weeks before the synchronization date (e.g., "1");
- Enter the number of Weeks after the synchronization date (e.g., "2").
In our example, synchronization will include all commitments that fall within a period starting 1 week before the date when you synchronize and ending 2 weeks after the date when you synchronize.
Once set, this time period will be maintained permanently until you reset it.
To synchronize all data:
- Click the "Synchronize Everything" button.
All commitments will be synchronized. If your TeamAgenda file is large, make sure your Palm has enough free memory to process all the information.
4. Click the Choose... button to select the TeamAgenda personal agenda file that should be synchronized with the conduits. Whether you are using one or more TeamAgenda conduits you can synchronize them with only one personal agenda file
To set up the TeamAgenda To-Do list conduit:
In the Settings dialog box:
1. Click "Synchronize" to turn on synchronization, or click "Do Nothing" to turn it off.
2. Check "Remove completed To Do items from the Palm" if you want completed To-Do items removed from the Palm during synchronization.
3. Check "Generate a log entry for every transaction during synchronization (results in slower synchronization)" if you want to keep a log file of all transactions.
This is needed only if you are trying to track synchronization problems. Normally this should not be checked.
4. Click the Choose... button to select the TeamAgenda personal agenda file that should be synchronized with the conduits. Whether you are using one or more TeamAgenda conduits you can synchronize them with only one personal agenda file.
To set up the TeamAgenda Address Book conduit:
In the Settings dialog box:
1. Click "Synchronize" to turn on synchronization, or click "Do Nothing" to turn it off.
2. Check "Generate a log entry for every transaction during synchronization (results in slower synchronization)" if you want to keep a log file of all transactions.
This is needed only if you are trying to track synchronization problems. Normally this should not be checked.
3. Click the Choose... button to select the TeamAgenda personal agenda file that should be synchronized with the conduits. Whether you are using one or more TeamAgenda conduits you can synchronize them with only one personal agenda file.
Note on Contact Synchronization:
Only TeamAgenda contacts from your Personal Directory will be synchronized with the Palm, and any new contacts you create on the Palm will appear in your Personal Directory.
Note that your TeamAgenda Personal Directory contains both your private contacts (which are not visible to other TeamAgenda users) and public contacts that you have copied into your Personal Directory. If you are authorized to modify public contacts in TeamAgenda, you must be connected to your team to do so.
As a result, if you modify public contacts on your Palm, you must make sure that your personal agenda is connected to the team when you resynchronize with the Palm. Otherwise any changes made to public contacts on the Palm will be lost.
