It can synchronize the built-in applications with their &kde; +counterparts. It also features additional conduits for third-party software. + + + +There is a web page for &kpilot;: the Official &kpilot; Home Page. The KDE-PIM website also offers useful information +on the subject of PIM in general. &kpilot; shares the +kdepim-users mailing list, kdepim-users@kde.org. See the mailing lists page for more +information on subscribing and unsubscribing from the list. + + + + + +Trademarks + +&kpilot; describes synchronization operations +with &PalmOS; devices, and it uses the word &HotSync; +to name those synchronization operations, +while recognizing that &HotSync; is a trademark of +Palm, Inc. Holders of other trademarks, such as +&Handspring; &Visor;, &Sony; &Clie;, and +the Palm, Inc. trademarks &PalmPilot; and +Zire +are recognized as well. + + + + + + +Overview of &kpilot; + + +&kpilot; consists of two parts: the &kpilot; daemon, which sits +in the system tray and handles the actual communication with +the &handheld;, and the normal &kpilot; program, which lets +you configure the daemon and view the databases on your +&handheld;. In normal operation, you will not need to use &kpilot; +itself very much, since the daemon handles communication unobtrusively +and synchronizes your data to &kde; applications like &korganizer; +and &knotes;. &kpilot; is integrated into &kontact; as well. + + + +It is vital to configure &kpilot; before use. At the very least, +you need to tell it which hardware device to use to communicate with +your &handheld;. +Configuration settings are described at length in +the section on configuring &kpilot;. +For the impatient, the configuration wizard +can set up most things for you. + + + +Once &kpilot; is configured, you should make a backup of your &handheld; first. That is to be on the +safe side. Once that is done, you can just leave the &kpilot; daemon running in +the system tray, and all you need to do is press the &HotSync; button, and +changes in the &handheld; data and the &kde; applications will be synchronized, so that the information matches +again on both the &handheld; and the desktop. + + + +If you want to examine the +data stored on your &handheld;, the built in viewers can be used. This allows you to view +memos, addresses, &etc;. There is a generic hexadecimal database viewer for +advanced use. + + + +Finally, &kpilot; can be used to install +new programs and databases on your &handheld;. + + + + + + +&configuring-kpilot; +&using-kpilot; +&synchronization; +&kpilot-faq; + + + + +Credits and License + + +&kpilot; +Program copyright 1998-2000 by &Dan.Pilone; +&Dan.Pilone.mail; + + +Contributors: + +Adriaan de Groot groot@kde.org + +&Preston.Brown; pbrown@redhat.com + +VCal and Todo Conduits by: Herwin Jan Steehouwer, +Kenneth Albanowski, &Michael.Kropfberger; + +Popmail Conduit overhaul: Marko Grönroos + +&kaddressbook; Conduit: Greg Stern + +Patches by: +Jörn Ahrens, +Robert Ambrose, +Jörg Habenicht, +Philipp Hullmann, +Dag Nygren, +Scott Presnell, +Heiko Purnhagen, +Chuck Robey +and +Jay Summet + + + + + +Documentation copyright 2000,2001 Adriaan de Groot groot@kde.org. +Documentation copyright 2004,2005 Carlos Leonhard Woelz +carloswoelz@imap-mail.com + + + +&underFDL; +&underGPL; + + +&documentation.index; + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
