Connecting Your Pocket PC

NOTE: If a Quickstart installation memory card was included with your purchase of CoPilot, you do not need to do this.

In order to successfully transfer data from your desktop to your Pocket PC, you must have Microsoft ActiveSync 3.1 (or later) installed. This software is necessary to connect the two machines and is provided by your Pocket PC manufacturer. If you did not receive this software with your mobile device, contact the distributor immediately.

1. When connecting your Pocket PC, if you have not set up a partnership between your Pocket PC and your desktop, you will be prompted to do so. This is not required. If you choose not to set up a partnership, select Guest

partnership, and you will be logged in as a Guest and ready to transfer data between machines.

2.If you have set up a partnership in the past, or choose to do so at this point, be sure to allow your Pocket PC to synchronize with your desktop/laptop prior to launching CoPilot.

NOTE: If your desktop/laptop

 

computer does not seem to be

 

recognizing the connection with

 

your Pocket PC, select Connection

 

Settings... from the drop-down

 

File menu, and make sure you're

 

connected using the appropriate

 

Port. Then click Get Connected...

 

in the File menu and follow the on-

 

screen instructions.
