How to install Palm Applications

Depending on your hardware and software configuration you may be able to install the application simply by clicking on the link, opening the file, and following the on-screen instructions. If this does not work on your computer, follow these steps:

  1. Download the application: Right-click on the link (Windows) or click and hold (Mac), and select the option to save the file to your computer.
  2. From the Save As dialog, select a folder on your local drive in which to place the file you will download.
  3. Start the Palm Install Tool: In Windows, click Start, then select Install Tool from the Palm Desktop menu (or open the Install Tool from within the Palm Desktop program). On Macintosh, run HotSync Manager, and use the Install Handheld Files menu item.
  4. Click the Add button.
  5. Select the file you downloaded from the folder you selected in step 2.
  6. The application will be installed the next time you synchronize your Palm. You can then run it from the Palm applications menu.
