4 Synchronising information

Using Microsoft® ActiveSync®, you can synchronise the information on your desktop computer with the information on your Pocket PC Phone. Synchronisation compares the data on your Pocket PC Phone with your desktop computer and updates both computers with the most recent information. For example:

Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronising your device with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop computer.

Synchronise Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your device and desktop computer. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.

Note: By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronise all types of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronisation on and off for specific information types.

With ActiveSync, you can also:

Back up and restore your device data.

Copy (rather than synchronise) files between your device and desktop computer.

Control when synchronisation occurs by selecting a synchronisation mode. For example, you can synchronise continually while connected to your desktop computer or only when you choose the synchronise command.

Select which information types are synchronised and control how much data is synchronised. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you want synchronised.
