Repeat steps 3 to 7 for all applications you want to synchronize.

You can select any combination of applications to synchronize. Each
application you synchronize must have a file assigned and the box to the left
of the application must be selected.

When you’ve finished setting up your synchronization, click OK.

The Synchronization Settings window disappears and synchronization
begins. Your synchronization settings are saved and remain in effect until you
change them.

After a few minutes, the applications you specified are synchronized.
Information in your Newton application is combined with information in the
file you selected. Both the file and your Newton application are updated.

Note: When you synchronize an application, the Conflict Resolution set for
the application determines how information from your Newton device is
combined with information in your computer’s file. By default, conflicting
entries in your Newton application are added to entries in your computer’s
file. For more information, see “Resolving Transfer Conflicts” in Chapter 10.

Resynchronizing your information

Whenever you change information on your Newton device or in your
computer’s file, you can resynchronize to keep your applications up-to-date.

For example, after you add meetings to your Newton Date Book, you can
synchronize the information so the calendar on your computer matches your
Newton device.

To resynchronize information, follow these steps:

1

Open the Newton Connection Utilities and establish a connection from your Newton
device.

For instructions, see Chapter 1, “Getting Started.”
