6 Connecting to a desktop PC

This chapter describes how to:

•establish a partnership between the HP Jornada and your desktop PC using Microsoft ActiveSync

•connect to another PC (no partnership established)

•synchronize data, e-mail messages, and channels

•browse the contents of the HP Jornada

•transfer files between the HP Jornada and desktop PC

•set up a new P/PC from a full backup

Understanding ActiveSync

ActiveSync enables you to synchronize the information on your desktop computer with the information on your device. Synchronization is the process of comparing the data on your device with your desktop computer and updating both computers with the most recent information.

Using ActiveSync

You use ActiveSync to:

•Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your mobile device with your choice of Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Schedule+, or Microsoft Exchange on your desktop computer.

•Synchronize Voice Recorder and Note Taker documents between your device and desktop computer. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.

•Back up and restore your P/PC data.

•Add and remove programs on your P/PC.

•Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and your desktop computer.
