- Place the iQue in the cradle and perform a HotSync on the unit to back up any of your current data. Make sure all user data has been saved correctly and completely ! During the update process, all user data will be permanently erased from the iQue. Please ensure that the iQue is fully charged before proceeding with the software update process.
- Perform a Hard Reset of the unit. To perform this procedure, you will need the reset tip tool, which may be unscrewed from the head of the stylus that came with your iQue. The following instructions are also included on page 1.6 of the iQue 3600 Integrated Handheld Operating Instructions manual:
- With the unit turned off, press and hold in the reset button on the back of the unit using the reset tip tool.
- Continue to hold in the reset button while you press and hold the power button.
- While holding in the power button, remove the reset tool from the reset hole.
- Continue holding the power button until the Palm logo appears on the screen.
- Once the Palm logo appears, release the power button.
- Press the up button when prompted to confirm the erase of user data. This will permanently erase all user data.
- A new User for the software update will need to be created for use during the software update process:
- Start by launching the Palm Desktop application.
- Go to the Tools menu, then select Users... to display a list of the current users.
- Click on the New... button to display the New User window.
- Enter a unique name for the User, such as Update, and then click OK.
- Close out of the Users window by clicking OK.

- Locate the Application called Updater. It can be found under the category of All. Once you have located the Updater Application, tap on it once. Then follow the on-screen instructions.

The unit will restart within about ten seconds of the Soft Reset and prompt you to choose one of the following laguages for the user interface: English, French, German, Italian or Spanish. Make your choice and then
follow the on-screen setup instructions.
- To restore your previous information to the iQue, place the iQue in the cradle, then perform a HotSync. A window will appear asking to select a User. Select the User name that you have been previously been using to identify your iQue on your PC, and your information will be restored to the iQue.
