Synchronizing Your Pocket PC Phone

4.1 Using ActiveSync

ActiveSync synchronizes information on your device with information

on your PC, such as Outlook content. ActiveSync can also synchronize

over a wireless or cellular network with Microsoft Exchange Server,

if your company or service provider is running Microsoft Exchange

Server with Exchange ActiveSync. When you synchronize, ActiveSync

compares the information on your device with the information on your

PC and/or Exchange Server and updates all locations with the most

recent information.
With ActiveSync, you can:

Synchronize information, such as Outlook E-mail, Contacts,

Calendar, or Tasks information on your device with your PC, as

well as pictures, video, and music.

Synchronize Outlook E-mail, Contacts, Calendar appointments,

and Tasks on your device directly with Exchange Server so that

you can stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.

Exchange files between your device and your PC without

synchronizing.

Select which types of information are synchronized and specify

how much information is synchronized. For example, you can

choose how many weeks of past Calendar appointments to

synchronize.

Before you can synchronize information with a PC, you must first install

ActiveSync on your PC and create a synchronization relationship

between your device and the PC. You can install ActiveSync from the

Getting Started CD that comes with your device. ActiveSync is already

installed on your device.
Once you have installed ActiveSync and set up a synchronization

relationship, ActiveSync on the PC recognizes your device when you

connect it, and automatically transfers the synchronization settings you

specified on your device.
