you can synchronize the information on your PC with
the information on your Pocket PC Phone. Synchronization compares the data on your
device with your PC and updates both with the most recent information. With ActiveSync ,
you can:
n Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your device with Microsoft
Outlook data on your PC.
n Choose to synchronize Inbox , Calendar , and Contacts with a server so that you have
the latest information, even when your desktop computer is turned off.
n Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and your desktop PC.
n Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode.
n Select which information types are synchronized and control how much data is syn-
chronized.
By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of
information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off for
specific information types.
Using Server ActiveSync , you can synchronize information directly with a
Microsoft Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft® Mobile
Information Server 2002 or later.
Installing ActiveSync
Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop computer from
the Pocket PC Phone 2003 Companion CD . ActiveSync is already installed on your
Pocket PC Phone.
Creating a Partnership
After the installation is complete, the New Partnership Wizard helps you set up a partner-
ship between your phone and your desktop computer and/or a server so that you can start
synchronizing information and customizing your synchronization settings.
