Mobile Favorites
If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later on your desktop
computer, you can download mobile favorites to your device. Synchronizing
mobile favorites downloads Web content to your device so that you can
view pages while you are disconnected from your ISP and desktop
computer.
Use the Internet Explorer plug-in installed with ActiveSync to create mobile
favorites quickly.
To create a mobile favorite:
1. In Internet Explorer 5 or greater on your PC, browse to the page you
want to view offline.
2. Click Tools and then Create Mobile Favorite.
3. To change the link name, enter a new name in the Name box.
4. In the Update box, select a desired update schedule to keep the page
in the Mobile Favorites folder up to date.
5. To save the link in a subfolder of Mobile Favorites, click Create In and
select the desired subfolder.
6. Click OK. Internet Explorer will download the latest version of the page.
7. To download the pages that are linked to the mobile favorite you just
created, in Internet Explorer on the PC, right-click the mobile favorite
and then click Properties. On the Download tab, specify the number of
links deep you want to download. To conserve device memory, only go
one level deep.
To save device memory
Mobile favorites take up storage memory on your device. To minimize the
amount of memory used:
■ In the settings for the Favorites information type in ActiveSync options,
turn off pictures and sounds, or stop some mobile favorites from being
downloaded to the device. For more information, see ActiveSync Help.
■ Limit the number of downloaded linked pages. In Internet Explorer on
the desktop computer, right-click the mobile favorite you want to change
and then Properties. In the Download tab, specify 0 or 1 for the
number of linked pages you want to download.
If you did not specify an update schedule in step 4, you will need to
manually download content to keep the information updated on your
desktop computer and device. Before synchronizing with your device, in
Internet Explorer on your desktop computer, click Tools and then
Synchronize. You will see the last time content was downloaded to the
desktop computer, and you can manually download content if needed.
You can add a button to the Internet Explorer toolbar for creating mobile
favorites. In Internet Explorer on your desktop computer, click View,
Toolbars, and then Customize.
