Noob with Compaq iPaq 3765 -- connect with powerbook?

[v12]

I recently recieved a iPaq 3765 from my father..

now i am somewhat confused on what to do..

i have a mac powerbook..so i think i may need additional software...can anyone point me in the right direction

i would like to use the ms word, and planner and to do list the most, however i also want to get this program for it, its from griffin technology its the total remote software, now will this work with my ppc? and can i install it through my powerbook?

thanks, also feel free to add anything else such as tips, maybe software updates, etc..thank you very much.

theres a program called "the missing sync" but i think you might need to update your ipaq to windows mobile 2002 if its not already

ohh ok, hwo can i check, i jsut did the hard reset of the entire ppc, and the software was removed form my fathers pc..i still have everything that it came in the box with though...

can someone give me a quick walk through?

your 3765 should have pocket pc 2002 OS installed. the supported list page on the missing sync site shows that your device is indeed supported

btw heres the linky to the site http://www.markspace.com/missingsync_windowsmobile.php
