Synchronizing remotely on Windows Mobile 5 or 6

Note

M-Business Client has a recoverable synchronization feature. If your remote (wireless) synchronization is

interrupted, because you lose your wireless connection, for example, M-Business Client automatically makes

several attempts to complete the synchronization, picking up where it left off. This process is automatic; no

error message is displayed and you do not need to do take any action.

If you do see an error message indicating that your synchronization failed to complete, it means that M-

Business Client was unable to recover your synchronization and you have to initiate a new synchronization,

which must start over from the beginning.

Before you can use M-Business Client with a modem (or other wireless connection), you need to make sure

that the modem or other device is configured properly and that you have network access to your Internet

Service Provider (ISP). Refer to your modem manufacturer’s documentation to configure your modem and

network access.

To access M-Business Server, M-Business Client uses the settings in M-Business Connect. If you can connect

to your ISP but you are unable to access M-Business Server, check the M-Business Connect settings. See

“Setting server information” on page 207.

Note

To synchronize with a cradle from your desktop, use the Microsoft ActiveSync software installed on your

desktop.
