To synchronise information:
1. Decide if you want to synchronise your information with a Microsoft Exchange Server, and
then click Next .
2. Select an information type (such as Contacts and Calendar) to synchronise, and then click
Next .
3. Click Finish to close the wizard and start synchronisation. During synchronisation, ActiveSync
examines each of the information types you selected to be synchronised and sees which records
are not the same on both the PDA phone and PC. Once both the PDA phone and PC have the
same information, all information types will be listed as
Synchronized .
After synchronisation, you can check that information you have stored in Microsoft Outlook
on your PC has been copied to your PDA phone without having to type a word. Disconnect
your PDA phone from your PC and you are ready to go.
Once you have set up ActiveSync and completed the first synchronisation process, you can
start synchronisation again any time from your PDA phone or the PC. To do so, connect your
PDA phone to the PC and then synchronisation will automatically start. You can also tap
Start > Programs > ActiveSync > Sync on your PDA phone, or click Synchronize from
within ActiveSync on the PC.
• If the connection between your PDA phone and the PC is not stable, tap Start > Settings >
Connections > USB to PC and uncheck Enable advanced network functionality. If the
problem still exists, disable the virus protection program and/or the firewall on the PC.
• While your PDA phone and the PC are connected, every time the data of an information type
is updated (for example, a new e-mail is available in the Inbox), the same update will be
synchronised automatically to your PDA phone shortly afterwards.

the information in Processor.
