About Microsoft® Pocket Outlook

Pocket Outlook includes Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Messaging, and Notes. You can use these programs individually or together. For example, e-mail addresses stored in Contacts can be used to address e-mail messages

in Messaging.

NOTE: Pocket Outlook is pre-installed on your device. If not already installed, your Dell Getting Started CD has a copy of the Pocket Outlook installation program. Ensure that you install Pocket Outlook and not Outlook Express. Note that you can only install Pocket Outlook once, as it is a licensed version.

Using Microsoft ActiveSync®, you can synchronize information on your computer in Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Exchange. You can also synchronize this information directly with an Exchange server. Each time you synchronize, ActiveSync compares the changes you made on your device and computer or server and updates both with the latest information. For information on using ActiveSync, see ActiveSync Help on your computer.

You can switch to any of the following programs through the Start menu.

NOTE: For detailed information about Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Messaging, and Notes, among other things, see Help on your device.

Categories

Use categories to group related contacts, tasks, and appointments. For example, you can assign work-related contacts to the Business category and personal contacts to the Personal category so that you can quickly find contact information. You can also create your own categories, such as Family, to group your relatives' contact information.
