Setting Up Windows Mobile Device Center on Windows Vista

Microsoft Windows Mobile® Device Center is the replacement for Microsoft® ActiveSync® on Windows Vista®.

Note

Some versions of Windows Vista come with Windows Mobile Device Center already installed. If Windows Mobile Device Center is not available in your Windows Vista installation, you can install it from the Getting Started CD that came with your device.

Setting Up Synchronization in Windows Mobile Device Center

When you connect your device to your computer and start Windows Mobile Device Center for the first time, you are asked to create a Windows Mobile partnership with your device. To create a partnership:

1.Connect your device to your computer. Windows Mobile Device Center configures itself, and then opens.

2.On the license agreement screen, click Accept.

3.On the Windows Mobile Device Center’s Home screen, click Set up your device.

Note

Choose Connect without setting up your device if you only want to transfer media files, check for updates, and explore your device but not synchronize Outlook information.

4.Select the items you want to synchronize, and then click Next.

5.Enter a device name, and then click Set Up.

When you finish the setup wizard, Windows Mobile Device Center synchronizes your device automatically. Outlook email messages and other information appear on your device after synchronization.
