4.2 Synchronizing Information

When you connect your device to the PC using a USB cable connection, or a Bluetooth connection, ActiveSync will immediately synchronize. While your device is connected, ActiveSync synchronizes every time you make a change on either the PC or your device.

To manually start and stop synchronization

1.Connect your device to the PC:

•To synchronize Outlook information and other local information on the PC, including media files, connect your device to the PC using Bluetooth or a USB cable.

•If you are synchronizing directly with Exchange Server, you can use this connection to the PC to "pass through" to the network, or you can synchronize without connecting to the PC over a cellular network.

2.In ActiveSync, tap Sync. To end synchronization before it completes, tap Stop.

Note ActiveSync 4.x utilizes a network type of connection with Windows Mobile powered devices, since this allows faster data transfer than a serial USB connection. When the PC is connected to the Internet or a local network, in some cases, the PC may disconnect the ActiveSync connection with your device in favor of the Internet or network connection. If this happens, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > USB to PC, then clear the Enable advanced network functionality check box. This makes ActiveSync utilize a serial USB connection with your device.

The USB to PC ( ) icon appears on the Today Screen when your device is connected to your computer and you enable a serial USB connection between them.
