Synchronization and backup

With Sony Ericsson PC Suite installed in your PC, your P910a can synchronize with the following PC applications, also called Personal Information Managers (PIMs):

Local synchronization

Lotus® Organizer® 5 & 6, 6.5

Lotus Notes® 5.0, 6

Microsoft Outlook 98, 2000, 2002, 2003

Microsoft Windows Address Book

Synchronization is divided into local and remote. Local synchronization is performed directly to a connected PC while remote synchronization is done over the air with a remote server in, for example, a corporate network.

The manual describes the easiest way to perform the tasks but you can also carry out most of them by selecting Start > Programs

>Sony Ericsson > P910a in the PC and then select the desired command.

Refer to the online help find in Help in the menu bar in the PC software to get more information about synchronization and backup.

Note If you have imported SIM phone book entries into Contacts in your P910a, these entries will not be synchronized with the corresponding entries in your PC when synchronizing your P910a and PC. You will instead get duplicates in your P910a.

Bluetooth

Irda

Cable

Local synchronization is done with either cable, infrared or Bluetooth wireless technology. The functionality is the same.

Email, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Jotter notes (only text) can be synchronized locally.

Local synchronization settings

Local synchronization is initiated from the PC and all settings are made in the P910a PC software (included on the Sony

Ericsson PC Suite CD).
