Notifications
You can set your device to remind you when you have something to do.

due date in Tasks, or an alarm in Clock, you are notified in one of the
following ways:
• A message box appears on the screen
• A sound, which you can specify, plays
• A light flashes on your device
To configure the reminders and sounds for your device:
1 Tap Start →
Settings.
2 On the Personal tab, tap Sounds & Notifications.
• Sounds tab — Adjust the volume and enable sounds
• Notifications tab — Set notifications for specific events

PowerPoint Mobile, and Pictures programs, you can beam files and

appointment in Calendar, a task in Tasks, a contact card in Contacts,
or a file in File Manager.
2 Tap Menu →

3 Do one of the following:
• If using Bluetooth, tap the device to which you want to send the
