Synchronizing with Your

Microsoft ActiveSync is a synchronization program you install

■

Copy files (data, audio, or video) between your device and up
to two host computers so you always have the latest
information in all locations.

■

Install programs on your device

■

Back up and restore device information

■

■

Send and receive e-mail

■

Request meetings
