Installing ActiveSync

on your computer

The ActiveSync program is already installed on your device. To

synchronize information on your device with your computer, you must

also install ActiveSync on your computer. Install ActiveSync from the

Companion CD that came with your product package.

NOTE

Before starting the ActiveSync installation, make sure that

you have Microsoft

®

Outlook

®

installed on your computer.

If you do not have Outlook, install the Microsoft

®

Outlook

®

from the Companion CD. If you have Outlook 98 or Outlook

2000 installed, you are encouraged to update to the Outlook

bundled in the Companion CD.

To install ActiveSync on your computer:

1. Turn on your computer and monitor.

IMPORTANT Do not connect your device to your computer until you

have finished installing ActiveSync.

2. Place the Companion CD into the optical drive of your computer. The

CD autoruns and displays the initial screen, then the Main Menu from

which you can start the installation.

3. Read the Overview before installing ActiveSync and Outlook to make

sure that you perform the installation sequence correctly, and then click

“Next”.

4. Follow the instructions on the succeeding screens.
If you have previously installed ActiveSync in your computer, the

installation wizard detects it and prompts you with a message.
