Backing Up and Restoring Data

To prevent data loss, frequently back up your NEC MobilePro data. You can backup all data to your host PC using Microsoft ActiveSync on your host PC.

Using Microsoft ActiveSync

The Microsoft ActiveSync backup and restore feature creates a complete duplicate of all data stored on your NEC MobilePro. If you routinely connect to your host PC, this is the best method of data backup. The backup file is saved on the hard disk of your host PC.

When you restore data from a backup file created by Microsoft ActiveSync, all data on your NEC MobilePro is replaced by the data in the backup file. All data on your MobilePro is overwritten including files you created, settings that you changed or programs that you installed since the last backup.

To access the Microsoft ActiveSync backup feature, double click the ActiveSync icon on your host PC. Click Tools, then click Backup/Restore. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the backup process.

Online Help

Your NEC MobilePro provides online help resources for Windows CE and the Pocket applications. In addition, Microsoft ActiveSync on your host PC provides its own online help file.

Follow these instructions to find your online help resources.

!Windows CE Main Help — Tap Start, then Help on the Windows CE taskbar.

!Application-specific Help — Just tap the question mark in the upper right-hand corner of the taskbar in each of the Pocket applications.

!Microsoft ActiveSync Help — On your host PC, double click the ActiveSync desktop icon, click Help, and select the Microsoft ActiveSync Help Topics.
