Getting Started

You can connect to your Exchange server using a

cellular connection, or you can connect your

Toshiba phone to your PC as a way of connecting

back to the Internet.

Installing and setting up ActiveSync

You can either install ActiveSync from your

Windows Mobile Getting Started CD or you can

download a copy of ActiveSync from http://

www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/addons/

default.mspx
Once the software has been installed and your

Toshiba phone is connected to your PC, via the USB

cable, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard is started.

Simply follow the on-screen instructions.

If you are not synchronizing directly with a Microsoft

Exchange server, do not select the option to

synchronize directly with a server. The alternative is

to synchronize your Toshiba phone with your PC.

You cannot do both at the same time.

Changing ActiveSync settings

Once you have set up synchronization using the

ActiveSync Setup Wizard on the PC, you can

change your synchronization settings at a later

stage:

• If you want to change ActiveSync settings for

synchronizing with a PC, use ActiveSync on the

PC. For more information, see ‘Changing the

amount of information synchronized’ in

ActiveSync Help on the PC.

• If you want to change ActiveSync settings for

synchronizing with an Exchange server, use

ActiveSync on your Toshiba phone, as

described in ‘Change settings for an information

type.’

NOTE: If you have a PC which is already

fully synchronized with your Exchange

server, you should synchronize your Toshiba

phone to your PC rather than synchronizing

your Toshiba phone with the Exchange

server. Data will be downloaded via your PC,

saving you the charges for traffic volume.

In addition, synchronizing via your mobile

phone network will take longer than it would

with your local PC.

n

NOTE: Disconnect your Toshiba phone from

your PC before changing the

synchronization settings.
