3. Follow the instructions in the installation wizard. For more
help, click the ActiveSync Help button during installation.
4. After installing ActiveSync on your computer, connect the
Pocket PC to the computer using the desktop cradle.
Synchronizing with Your Computer
After you have installed ActiveSync, you can:
■ Create partnerships that enable you to synchronize
information with up to two computers.
■ Select information to be synchronized with your Pocket PC
(for example, Contacts, Calendar, Inbox, Tasks, Favorites,
Files, Notes, and AvantGo).
Note: When you synchronize files, you can drag and drop the
selected files from your computer to the synchronized folder on
your Pocket PC. If you named your device “PC1” when you
created your partnership, then the synchronized folder is named
“PC1.” When you synchronize, the files move to and from your
Pocket PC.
Using the Serial Infrared (IR) Connection
As an alternative to using the desktop cradle, you can synchronize
your Pocket PC and your computer using an infrared connection
if you have an infrared port or an infrared USB adapter installed
on your computer. The infrared connection option works only on
computers that have Microsoft Windows 98SE, Me, 2000, or XP
operating systems installed.
To set up an infrared connection to a computer:
1. Synchronize your Pocket PC with your computer using the
desktop cradle before the first time you establish an
ActiveSync connection via infrared.
2. Follow your computer manufacturer’s instructions to install
and set up an infrared port.
