ActiveSync synchronizes information on your device with information on your PC, such as Outlook
content. ActiveSync can also synchronize over a 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:
v
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.
v
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.
v
Exchange files between your device and your PC without synchronizing.
v
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, first, you must install ActiveSync on your PC.
And then you create a synchronization relationship between your device and the PC.
You can install ActiveSync from the Getting Started disc that comes.
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.
You may be able to synchronize your device with Exchange Server through your company or wireless
service provider. If you plan to do so, obtain e-mail address, Exchange Server address, user name,
password, and domain name from your administrator before starting the Sync Setup Wizard.
