Microsoft ActiveSync

Microsoft ActiveSync enables you to synchronize the information on your
desktop computer with the information on your device. Synchronization is
the process of comparing the data on your device with your desktop
computer and updating both computers with the most recent information.
For example:

!

Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your mobile
device with your choice of Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Schedule+,
or Microsoft Exchange on your desktop computer.

!

Synchronize Word and Excel documents, Access and other ODBC
databases and tables, and InkWriter documents between your device
and desktop computer. Your files are automatically converted to the
correct format.

With ActiveSync, you can also:

!

Back up and restore your device data.

!

Add and remove programs on your device.

!

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