Synchronizing Information
3.1 About Synchronization
You can take information from your computer wherever you go by synchronizing them to your phone. The
following types of information can be synchronized:
Microsoft Outlook® information, which includes Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, and notes
Notes, which are created using Microsoft® Office OneNote® 007
Media, such as pictures, music and video
Favorites, which are the bookmarked links to your favorite web sites
Files, such as documents and other files
Note You can also synchronize Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar, and tasks on your phone with the Exchange Server at
your work. For more information about setting up your phone to synchronize with the Exchange Server, see
Chapter 7.
Before you can synchronize, you will first need to install and set up the synchronization software on your
computer. For information about installing and using the synchronization software on your computer, see
“Using Windows Mobile Device Center” and “Installing and Using ActiveSync” in this chapter.
After installing the synchronization software on your computer, connect the phone to your computer using
the USB sync cable. Upon connecting the sync cable to your phone and your computer, the synchronization
process starts automatically.
You can also synchronize information with your computer using Bluetooth. See “Synchronizing via Bluetooth”
later in this chapter.:
Notes • ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center only synchronizes data on your computer and phone. If you have
installed a storage card and you want to back up files from the storage card, use Windows Explorer on your
computer to copy files from the storage card to your computer.
• If you are sending your phone for repair or performing a hard reset, data from your phone will be lost. It is
recommended that you sync your phone to your computer to back up your files. To back up files from the storage
card to your computer, use Windows Explorer to copy files from the storage card to the computer.
3.2 Setting up Windows Mobile® Device Center on Windows
Vista®
Microsoft Windows Mobile® Device Center is the replacement for Microsoft® ActiveSync® on Windows Vista®.
Some versions of Windows Vista® come with Windows Mobile Device Center already installed. If Windows
Mobile Device Center is not available on your Windows Vista®, you can install it from the Getting Started Disc
that came with your phone.
Setting up synchronization in Windows Mobile Device Center
When you connect your phone to your computer and start Windows Mobile Device Center for the first time,
you are asked to create a Windows Mobile partnership with your phone. To create a partnership:
Connect your phone to your PC. Windows Mobile Device Center configures
itself and then opens.
On the license agreement screen, click Accept.
On the Windows Mobile Device Home screen, click Set up your device.
Note Choose Connect without setting up your device if you only want to transfer
media files, check for updates, and explore your phone but not sync Outlook
information.
Select the information types that you want to synchronize then click Next.
Enter a name for your phone and click Set Up.
