5.1 About ActiveSync
You can take information from your computer wherever you go by
synchronizing them to your device. The following types of information can
be synchronized between your computer and your device:
• Microsoft Outlook® information, which include Outlook e-mail,
contacts, calendar, tasks, and notes.
• Media, such as pictures, music and video.
• Favorites, which are the bookmarked links to your favourite Web
sites.
• Files, such as documents and other files.
Before you can synchronize, you need to install first the synchronization
software to your computer. For more information, see “Setting Up Windows
Mobile Device Center” if you are using Windows Vista™, or see “Setting Up
ActiveSync” if you are using Windows XP®.
Ways to synchronize
After you have installed the synchronization software to your computer,
connect and synchronize your device with your computer by using one of
the following methods:
• Connect and synchronize using the supplied USB sync cable. Upon
connecting the sync cable to your device and your computer, the
synchronization process starts automatically.
• Connect and synchronize using Bluetooth. You must first set up a
Bluetooth partnership between your device and your computer
before you can synchronize information through Bluetooth. For more
information about setting up a Bluetooth partnership, see Chapter
9. For information about synchronizing through Bluetooth, see
“Synchronizing via Bluetooth” later in this chapter.
Try to synchronize frequently in order to keep information up to date in
both your device and your computer.
Note You can also synchronize Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar, and tasks on
your device with the Exchange Server at your work. For more information
about setting up your device to synchronize with the Exchange Server, see
