Calendar Sync Options

The Calendar Sync Options dialog (see figure

4.35

) includes a menu where is can be

set how old data will be synchronized.

Figure 4.44

Folder synchronization settings — calendar

New events will be synchronized without exception. However, to shorten the time

needed for synchronization, it si possible to set the maximum age of events to be

synchronized (it is not necessary to synchronize old data where the information will

not be needed any longer).

By default, data up to two weeks old is synchronized. If you need to synchronized

also older data, change the settings. In such a case, bear in mind that at least the first

synchronization may take longer.

E-mail Sync

The E-mail Sync dialog (see figure

4.36

) includes two parameters to be customized:

Folder synchronization settings — email

Include the previous — this option allows to set how old messages will be synchro-

nized. By default, messages up to three days old are included in the synchroniza-

tion.

Limit e-mail size to — only messages of size up to the value set will be synchro-

nized.

The settings described above help decrease time needed for synchronization as well as

the load of the synchronization on network connection.

Before closing the wizard, click on the Menu button (see figure

4.43

) and select the Ad-

vanced option. It allows setting of optional parameters. The dialog allows to set measures

to be taken in case that a collision occurs during the synchronization (see figure

4.46

).

Collisions might occur when some folders to be synchronized have been changed both on

the server and on the device since the last synchronization. According to the parameters

set here, ActiveSync will either beat the change performed on the server with the one

applied on the device or the other way round. By default, the server beats the device. It is

recommended to keep these settings.
