Copying data from your computer using Data Import/Export
Notes
Make sure you have the Data Export software installed on your computer. (See “Getting ready: Installing Data Export” for details.)
Before using the Data Import/Export applications, turn on your computer and connect your CLIÉ™ handheld to your computer.
Before performing the following procedure, insert a storage media into your CLIÉ™ handheld. Do not eject it until transferring data is complete. Data may not operate properly when the file transfer is interrupted.
The Data Import application may not display any indication of a data transfer in progress depending on a computer you are using. In this case, check if the data transfer is in progress using some indications on your computer.
The files stored in the System folder on the Internal Media are used to operate the system of your CLIÉ™ handheld and the applications. Never delete or edit these files using the Data Import/Data Export or other applications. Doing so may cause a malfunction of your CLIÉ™ handheld.
Sony is not liable for any trouble with applications or data caused by your deleting or editing of these files and folders.
