Chapter 5. Contacts In this chapter Replace your paper address book Create new contacts quickly Assign custom fields and unique categories Attach a note to a contact
Contacts is the best address book you've ever had. But it's not just for keeping in touch. Use Contacts to build your network, introduce like-minded people to each other, and remind yourself of birthdays and other big events. Contacts works smoothly with other applications to make sure the things you do stay connected to the people you do them with. Identify yourself in Contacts In case you ever lose your handheld, make it easier for the person who finds it to find you. Create a contact with the following note as the last name: "+If found, contact [your name and phone number]." The + symbol causes the contact to rise to the top of the contact list. |
Share contact info fast At conferences, get-togethers, and other events, beam and receive contact information whenever you can. It's faster and more accurate than entering the info manually. To beam contact info, tap the contact's name, tap the Menu icon, and select Record > Beam Contact (). |
Sync Contacts from Outlook When you first set up your handheld with your computer, you were asked whether to use Outlook or Palm® Desktop as your computer's default info manager. You can switch to Outlook at any time. Just insert your installation CD into your computer and select Install Microsoft Outlook Conduits. Your handheld's contacts stay the same, but are now synchronized with the personal info manager of your choice. |
