Dell Mobile Sync

Dell Devices

Dell devices are fully supported in Dell Mobile Sync. For each Dell device, default folders for

music, photos and videos are displayed below the main

[Device name] entry.

Dell Mobile Sync automatically detects the best settings and optimizes your content. Music is

transcoded into MP3 (except for AAC or M4P files); videos are transcoded into H.264/AVC

format. The resolution is adapted according to the device profile. Preview and rotating of

photos as well as video and music playback are possible directly on the device.

The main device browsing screen remains split: The upper area shows the name and

information about free and total capacity of your device. In addition, the device memory

occupied by the different media types is illustrated on a colored capacity bar.

The

Device Options buttons in the upper right opens the Options window in the Devices

category. Here you can choose the folder name imported files will be saved in. A special

folder will be a created by Dell Mobile Sync with every import.

The

Backup / Restore button in the upper right opens the Backup / Restore window. You

can start the backup and restore processes from here. A

Backup wizard guides you step-by-

step to save your important phone data. A

Restore wizard guides you to recover your saved

data at a later time.

You can start the synchronization from the

Sync area in the middle of the device browsing

screen via one click on the

Sync button. You can also open the Sync Options window from

here. In the

Sync Options window you can select the contents you want to synchronize. In

general, when the application starts the synchronization process, all media content from your

device will be copied to the import setting folder. The status of a running transferring and

transcoding process is visible in a small display in the lower left.

In the lower area of the device browsing screen, you can set up the import options to copy

media files from the connected device to your computer. The

Import area is available for any

connected device.
