Nokia 3585i manual Understand the Basics of Synchronization

Nokia PC Sync

3Click the Contacts tab.

4Select the details you want synchronized with your phone.

Contact deletions

By default, contacts deleted from your phone are not deleted from your PIM when you synchronize. If you accidentally delete a contact from your phone, you can restore it by synchronizing again.

Deselecting the Ignore contact deletions option instructs PC Sync to permanently delete the corresponding contact in your PIM. Choose this option only when you are certain you want PC Sync to delete the PIM contact (and all details) associated with the deleted contacts list entry.

Deleting contacts list entries cannot be undone!

Set PIM properties

The last properties tab is labeled with the name of your PIM application. Use this properties tab to modify how PC Sync communicates with your PIM resources. For example, if your PC is configured for multiple users, the default location of the database with your information may be stored in a user profile directory instead of the default location for a single-user PC. PC Sync returns an error message if it cannot find your PIM data.

Use the PIM properties tab to select the correct location of your PIM databases containing current contacts, calendar, and to-do list information.

Synchronizing for the first time

Once you have customized PC Sync for your uses you are ready to synchronize your phone and PIM.

2Click the Synchronize Now button.

3Observe the synchronization status indicator.

4Click the OK button when synchronization is complete.

Important: Please refer to the Troubleshooting document in the event synchronization is not successful or if PC Suite notifies you of errors. A link to this document can be found in the Nokia PC Suite 4 Program Group.
