Apple MC086LL/A, MB533LL/A manual Info Pane

Info Pane

The Info pane lets you configure the sync settings for your contacts, calendars, email accounts, and web browser.

•Contacts

You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts, Windows Address Book (Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one application at a time.)

If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve set up syncing.

•Calendars

You can sync calendars from applications such as iCal on a Mac, or from Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync calendars with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one application at a time.)

•Web Browser

You can sync bookmarks from Safari on a Mac, or from Safari or Microsoft Internet Explorer on a PC.

•Notes

Sync notes in the Notes application on iPod touch with notes in Mail on a Mac or with Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you must have Mac OS version 10.5.7 or later installed to sync notes.)

•Mail Accounts

You can sync email account settings from Mail on a Mac, and from Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 or Outlook Express on a PC. Account settings are only transferred from your computer to iPod touch. Changes you make to an email account on iPod touch don’t affect the account on your computer.

Note: The password for your Yahoo! email account isn’t saved on your computer, so it can’t be synced and must be entered on iPod touch. In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” tap your Yahoo! account, and enter the password.

•Advanced

These options let you replace the information on iPod touch with the information on your computer during the next sync.
