Check which version of the Palm OS you have on your organizer before you install Hebrew Lite. The following sequence must be followed in order to install Hebrew Lite on your Palm (Visor / Sony CLIE) organizer:

1-A If you have an organizer that has Palm OS 5:
Download the Hebrew Lite Version 5.00L zip file. This file is named "heb500L.zip". Continue with Step 2.

1-B If you have a hi-resolution Sony CLIE device that has Palm OS 4.x or 3.x (not Palm OS 5):
Download the Hebrew Lite Version 4.01SL zip file. This file is named "heb401SL.zip". Continue with Step 2.

1-C If you have a Tungsten W:
Download the Hebrew Lite Version 4.11WL zip file. This file is named "heb411WL.zip". Continue with Step 2.

1-D If your organizer has Palm OS 3.5 through 4.1:
Download the Hebrew Lite Version 4.01L zip file. This file is named "heb401L.zip". Continue with Step 2.

1-E If your organizer has Palm OS 3.0 through 3.3:
Download the Hebrew Lite Version 3.00L zip file. This file is named "heb300L.zip". Continue with Step 2.

2 Save the file to your hard drive and remember the file name and location. If prompted to overwrite files, say Yes. A zip file is a compressed file which contains several files within it.

3 You'll need WinZip (or a similar program) to extract the files out of the "zip" file. (If you are using a MacIntosh computer, use StuffIt). If prompted to overwrite files, say Yes. Remember the location of the extracted files.

4 If you have a previous version of Hebrew Lite (or Hebrew Support+) on your organizer, make sure to disable it. This new version will overwrite the old version.

Tap the HebLite icon (or the Hebrew+ icon) on your organizer. You will see one of the following screen displays:

 • A screen stating the Beta Version has expired, tap the OK button.

 • You see the message "Unsupported OS Version", tap the Done button.

 • You see a message "Ivrit Mutkenet Enabled", tap the Disable button, then tap the Done button.

 • If you are using Hebrew from a different company other than Penticon, make sure to disable the Hebrew application. Note: this is read-only Hebrew and does not support Hebrew text entry. Install at your own risk.

5 If your organizer has Palm OS 3.5 through 5:
Install the Hebrew.prc file using the the Palm Quick Install on your computer. Make sure to the install it to the Handheld and not the Expansion Card. Continue with step 7.

6 If your organizer has Palm OS 3.0 through 3.3:
Using the Palm Install Tool (that is provided as part of the Palm desktop software), install on your computer the following 3 files:
Hebrew.prc
hebtraps.prc
HebFont.pdb

7 Perform a HotSync in order to transfer the file to your organizer.

8 On your organizer, tap the HebLite icon to run the application.

 • If Hebrew is not enabled, tap the Enable button.
 • Hebrew Lite is now enabled on your device.
 • Tap the Done button.
