The web download version of Palm Desktop may not include the desktop Note Pad application and conduits required to synchronize with the Note Pad application found on some Palm handhelds (e.g. Palm m100 series, Palm m505, Palm m500, and Palm m515). You should install from the software CD that came with your handheld, or download Palm Desktop software with Note Pad.

Note for current Pilot Desktop 1.0 for Macintosh users:
If possible, you should perform a HotSync synchronization between your Palm handheld and the Pilot Desktop 1.0 software before installing this software.
