This chapter discusses using ActiveSync® desktop software and other methods to synchronize your Treo 750 and your computer.

Synchronization enables you to enter or change information on your Treo 750 or in Microsoft Office Outlook®. Your info is then automatically updated in both places; there’s no need to enter the info twice. This is true whether you sync with your computer using ActiveSync desktop software (see Setting up your computer for synchronization) or wirelessly with your company’s Exchange Server using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (see Setting up wireless synchronization).

By default, the info from the following applications is synchronized for either method of synchronization:

If you set up ActiveSync synchronization with your computer, information in the Favorites application is synchronized by default as well. You can also change settings to synchronize Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files, as well as pictures, music, videos, and other types of files (see Changing which applications sync). For synchronization of music and videos, you also must have Windows Media® Player 10 on your computer.

DID YOU KNOW? When you sync Favorites, it creates a folder in your computer’s web browser called Mobile Favorites that backs up any favorites you create in the browser on your Treo 750. You can add or remove favorites directly to or from the folder.

TIP If you don’t already have Windows Media Player installed on your computer, you can install it from the Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc. Insert the CD into your computer’s CD drive, select Add Programs, and then select Windows Media Player.
