Chapter 4. Synchronizing Information

ActiveSync synchronizes information on your phone with information on your PC such as Outlook content. ActiveSync can also synchronize over a wireless or cellular network with Exchange Server, if your company or service provider is running Exchange Server with Exchange ActiveSync.

Specifically, you can use ActiveSync to:

•Synchronize information such as Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar, or tasks information on your phone with your PC, as well as pictures, video, and music.

•Synchronize Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar appointments, and tasks on your phone directly with Exchange Server so that you can stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.

•Copy files between your phone and your PC without synchronizing.

•Select which types of information are synchronized and specify how much information is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past calendar appointments to synchronize.

4.1 Installing and setting up ActiveSync

1. Install ActiveSync on your PC, as described on the Windows Mobile™ Getting Started Disc. After

Setup completes, the Synchronization Setup Wizard automatically starts when you connect your

device to the PC.

2. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the wizard. In the Sync Setup Wizard, you can:

•Create a synchronization relationship between your PC and the device.

When you finish the wizard, ActiveSync synchronizes your phone automatically. Once synchronization completes, you can disconnect your phone from your PC.

4.2 Synchronizing Information
