Additional Information

  • In terms of synchronization, H/PC Explorer 1.1 works the same way as version 1. Simply connect your H/PC to your PC, and synchronization begins automatically. You can also enable automatic backup of your H/PC to your PC every time you connect. Automatic synchronization and/or backup can be turned off and the processes run manually if you wish. The setup program allows you to choose if you'd like to synchronize with Outlook, Schedule+ or a combination of the two.

  • It's important that you install and configure either Outlook 97 or Schedule+ 7.0a before you synchronize your H/PC. Otherwise, H/PC Explorer 1.1 will be unable to find the location for your calendar, contacts, tasks and e-mail that your desktop software uses during setup.

  • File conversion from desktop Word and Excel to Pocket Word and Pocket Excel also works the same as before. Simply drag the file you want from the desktop to the H/PC, or from the H/PC to the desktop, and conversion and file transfer happen automatically. It's important that you install Microsoft Office before installing H/PC Explorer so that H/PC Explorer can find the desktop versions of Word and Excel and their associated converter software modules during setup.

  • H/PC Explorer 1.1 now enables you to dock H/PCs with PCs running either Windows NT Workstation 4.0 or Windows 95.

  • The terms of the End User License Agreement for H/PC Explorer 1.1 have been changed to allow customers to install H/PC Explorer 1.1 on any PC that they wish to dock their H/PC with. While H/PCs can only establish a partnership relationship with a single PC at a time, H/PCs can dock as guests of another PC to exchange files.

    The long wait for Windows NT Workstation 4.0, Outlook 97, Word 97 and Excel 97 compatibility is over. Get your copy of H/PC Explorer 1.1 right now!
