5.1 Using ActiveSync®

With ActiveSync®,you can synchronize the information on your PC with the information on your PPC6600. Synchronization compares the data on your device with your PC and updates both with the most recent information.With ActiveSync®, you can:

Keep Pocket Outlook® data up-to-date by synchronizing your device with Microsoft® Outlook data on your PC.

Choose to synchronize Inbox,Calendar,and Contacts with a server so that you have the latest information,even when your computer is turned off.

Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and your PC.

Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode.

Select which information types are synchronized and control how much data is synchronized.

Note:

By default, ActiveSync® does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use ActiveSync® options to turn synchronization on and off for specific information types.

Note:

Using Server ActiveSync®, you can synchronize information

directly with a Microsoft® Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft® Mobile Information Server 2002 or later.

Installing ActiveSync®

Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync® on your computer from the PPC6600 Companion CD. ActiveSync® is already installed on your PPC6600. (For details on installing and configuring ActiveSync®, please refer to the “Before You Start UsingYour Sprint PCS Smart Device” guide which was packaged with your PPC6600.)
