Using ActiveSync™
ActiveSync™ allows you to synchronize data in your device with data in your computer.
ActiveSync can also synchronize over a wireless or cellular network with Microsoft Exchange
Server, provided that your cellular phone service or company is running Microsoft Exchange
Server with Exchange ActiveSync. When synchronized directly with Exchange Server, you can
stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.
During synchronization, ActiveSync compares the data in your device with the data in your
computer or Exchange Server, and updates all data with recent changes.
You can select and synchronize data in the following locations using ActiveSync:
• Contacts
• Calendar
• Email
• Tasks
• Notes
• Favorites
• Files
• Media
You can also exchange data between your computer and device without synchronizing.
ActiveSync is already installed in your device, but before you can synchronize data with
your computer, you must first install ActiveSync in your computer. Install ActiveSync from the
Microsoft Getting Started CD that came with your device package.
After you have installed ActiveSync, set up a sync relationship between your device and your
computer. ActiveSync recognizes your device and automatically transfers the synchronization
settings you have in your device.
