You can add software to expand the functions on the HP iPAQ. Here's how.
Instructions
1. Download and install the ActiveSync software from the Microsoft Web site (see Resources below) onto your personal computer or the device that you will use to load software onto your HP iPAQ.
2. Make sure that your HP iPAQ has enough memory to support the new software applications. Check the available memory against the amount the software requires. Without sufficient memory, your handheld device will not run properly.
3. Connect the HP iPAQ to your personal computer or laptop. You can do this either through a USB cord or with a docking device.
4. Allow the "Setup Wizard" to lead you through the process of detecting and installing your handheld device. Your computer must recognize the device's hardware or it won't transfer the information and data.
5. Double click the "My Computer" icon to open the folder. You should see a new icon that says "Mobile Device." This lets your computer access your handheld device.
6. Click on the applications that you want transferred from your computer to your iPAQ.
7. Highlight the selected files. Drag and drop each one individually.
8. Unplug your handheld device from your computer after you finish. Follow your computer's guidelines for safely removing hardware from the USB.
