SYNCHRONIZE USING THE NOKIA DCV-15

You can also initiate synchronization when your phone is connected to the Nokia DCV-14 Connectivity Desk Stand. With the PC Sync program already running, press the synchronization button on the front of the stand.

For more information on the Nokia DCV-15 Connectivity Desk Stand, please refer to the Enhancements chapter, located in the user guide for your phone.

• USE THE NEW SYNCHRONIZATION COMMAND

If you upgrade to a newer version or change PIM applications, you must configure PC Sync to work with the new application. Select New Synchronization from the Nokia PC Suite program group, then follow the instructions under “Configure PC Sync” on page 12.

Important: New Synchronization is not the command to use when you want to start PC Sync and initiate synchronization between your phone and PC.

• CREATE A CUSTOM CONTACT LIST

If you have more contacts in your PIM than your contacts list can hold, synchronizing may overload your phone memory.

Nokia suggests you create a custom contact list or subset of your master contact list containing only the information you want in your phone. Depending on the PIM application you use, you may need to create a new contact database file or create a new folder to store the custom contact list.

Configure for Outlook users

Outlook users can create folders and subfolders in their Outlook database files. To create a custom contact list, first create a new folder to store contacts. Then copy the desired contact information from your main contacts folder to the new folder. PC Sync allows you to synchronize your phone with the Outlook contacts folder of your choosing.
