This chapter describes how to use advanced options when you import, export,
or synchronize to change how information is transferred between your
Newton device and your computer. For information about importing or
exporting with Newton Works, see Chapter 8, “Importing Into Newton
Works” or Chapter 9, “Exporting From Newton Works.”

Note: When you initiate a synchronization from your Newton device, the
Newton Connection Utilities use the settings selected with your computer
application. If you want to change settings, use the Newton Connection
Utilities on your computer.

About advanced options

The Newton Connection Utilities allow you to use the following methods to
further refine how information is transferred:
m Date Range: For calendar applications, you can set a date range to specify

which calendar entries to transfer. See “Changing the Date Range.”

m Conflict Resolution: When you transfer information, you can specify how

conflicting information is handled. For example, should entries on your
Newton device replace similar (but not identical) entries on your computer,
or vice versa? See “Resolving Transfer Conflicts.”
