CHAPTER

Installing applications

Your Centro comes with several built-in and

ready-to-use applications. You can also

install additional applications, such as

business software, games, and more. The

Palm Software Installation CD includes

several bonus software apps, and you can

purchase other third-party Palm OS

®

by

ACCESS apps as well.

NOTE The instructions in this section tell

you how to install basic PRC (Palm OS

application) and PDB (Palm OS database)

files on your Centro. Some Palm OS

software uses an installer or wizard to

guide you through the process. For details,

consult the documentation that came with

the software.

Installing bonus software from My Centro

on your device

My Centro lets you download and install

software that you can use on your Centro.

If the software has a desktop component

in addition to a Centro component, you

need to download the software to your

computer first. See Installing bonus

software from My Palm on your computer

for info on installing software that includes

a desktop component.

1 Press Applications and select

My Centro .

2 Select the Bonus tab.

3 Select the Install link below the name

of the application you want to install.

Repeat step 3 to install additional

applications.

Installing applications from the Internet

You can use the web browser on your

Centro to install Palm OS files (PRC or

PDB) directly from the Internet. When you

download a PRC or PDB file, it is

automatically installed on your Centro. If a

file is compressed (for example, as a ZIP or

SIT file), you need to download it to your

computer, expand the file, and then

synchronize to transfer the expanded file to

your Centro.

NOTE Make sure the application you

download is compatible with your device.
