HTC RAPH800 manual Synchronizing via Bluetooth, Troubleshooting Sync Connection Problems

Specifying What Information Is Synchronized

You can change the information types and the amount of information to synchronize for each type on either your device or your computer. Follow the steps below to change synchronization settings on your device.

Note Before changing synchronization settings on your device, disconnect it from your computer.

1.In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Options.

2.Select the check box for any items you want to synchronize. If you cannot select a check box, you might have to clear the check box for the same information type elsewhere in the list.

3.To change synchronization settings for an information type (for example, E-Mail), select it, and tap Settings. You can then set the download size limit, specify the time period of information to download, and more.

Notes • Some information types such as Favorites, Files, and Media cannot be selected in ActiveSync Options on your device. You can select or clear these items only from your computer’s Windows Mobile Device Center or ActiveSync.

•A computer can have sync partnerships with many different Windows Mobile powered devices, but a device can have sync partnerships with at most two computers. To ensure that your device will synchronize properly with both computers, set up the second computer using the same synchronization settings you used on the first computer.

•Outlook email can be synchronized with only one computer.

Troubleshooting Sync Connection Problems

In some cases, when the computer connects to the Internet or a local network, it may disconnect the connection with your device in favor of the Internet or network connection.

If this happens, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > USB to PC, and then clear the Enable advanced network functionality check box. This makes your computer use a serial USB connection with your device.

Synchronizing via Bluetooth

You can connect and synchronize your device with the computer using Bluetooth.

Note To connect and synchronize your device with a computer via Bluetooth, your computer must have a built-in Bluetooth or installed with a Bluetooth adapter or dongle.

1.Set up Windows Mobile Device Center or ActiveSync on your computer to synchronize through Bluetooth. See the program’s Help for instructions.

2.On your device, tap Start > Programs > ActiveSync.

3.Make sure that Bluetooth on both your device and the computer are turned on and set to visible mode. See “Using Bluetooth” on page 89 for details.

If this is the first time you have connected to this computer via Bluetooth, you must first complete the Bluetooth wizard on your device and set up a Bluetooth partnership between your device and the computer. For more information about creating a Bluetooth partnership, see “Bluetooth Partnerships” on page 90.

4.Tap Menu> Connect via Bluetooth. Make sure the Bluetooth function of both your device and the computer are turned on and set to visible mode.

Note To conserve battery power, turn off Bluetooth when not in use.
