Close a PIM Item Transfer connection

PIM Item Transfer connections close automatically when the data transfer is complete.

Default Business Card Selection

When the “Always send the same business card” option is selected, a dialog box
prompts you to select a default business card.
The first time the dialog box is displayed it provides a way to choose the Personal
Information Manager that stores the default business card. Click the down-arrow in
the PIM shortcut menu and select the PIM to be used.
On subsequent appearances of this dialog box, the PIM selection option is not avail-
able.

Change the selected PIM

On the PIM Item Transfer properties page, “Received items” section, there is a Busi-
ness Cards shortcut menu. When a PIM was selected during initial setup the selected
item in this menu was set to the same PIM. To change the PIM used for the default
business card, open this shortcut menu and select a new PIM.
NOTE: A new default business card must be selected from the database of the newly
selected PIM.

Choose a default business card

1. In the Select a Bluetooth Business Card dialog box that is displayed when “Al-
ways send the same business card” is selected, select the card.
NOTE: If you mouse over a card that has been selected, a message is displayed
with additional information about that contact.
2. Click OK to choose a selected business card and return to the PIM Item Trans-
fer Properties page. The chosen contact is now displayed and selected in the
“Business card requests” shortcut menu.

If the “Always send the same business card” option is selected again, and a different
contact is chosen, the properties page will display both contacts in the shortcut menu.
NOTE: In addition to the default menu options, the shortcut menu can hold up to ten
contact names.

6.6.11 PIM Synchronization

The PIM Synchronization service can be used by a remote device to synchronize its
Personal Information Manager (PIM) database with the PIM database of this computer.
Four data types are supported:

‧ Business cards
‧ Calendar items
‧ Email messages
‧ Notes.

Whether an individual item is accepted and where it is stored, when accepted, is
configured in the PIM Item Transfer service. If that service is not configured to store a
particular data type in Outlook, then that data type cannot be synchronized.
NOTE: Data types that will be synchronized must be saved in the PIM database (this
is configured in the PIM Item Transfer service); otherwise, that data type will not be
available for selection (it will be grayed out) in the PIM Synchronization configuration
settings.
