In order to use ActiveSync you will first
need to install it on your PC using the CD
provided with your Xda II. Alternatively
visit
www.pocketpc.com
and search for
ActiveSync 3.7
.
Using ActiveSync allows you to synchronise
your Xda II Inbox, Calendar and Tasks with
your PC.
You can draft emails on your Xda II whilst
you are on the move and save them in
your Xda II’s outbox.
When you get back to your PC you can
synchronise your Xda II with your PC and
your emails will be transferred to
Microsoft
®
Exchange or Outlook
®
on your
PC and then sent.
At the same time, during synchronisation
emails are copied from the Inbox folder of
Microsoft
®
Exchange or Outlook
®
on your
PC and downloaded to the Inbox on your
Xda II
*
. So you can read emails later whilst
on the move and draft a response.
Emails between your Xda II and PC are
linked when you synchronise. If you delete
an email on your Xda II, it is deleted from
your PC the next time you synchronise.
For detailed information regarding
ActiveSync™ and how to set up a
connection, please refer to your Pocket PC
Phone User Manual.
*By default you will receive messages from the last
three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message,
and file attachments of less than 100KB in size. To
amend the default setting please refer to your Pocket
PC Phone User Manual.

Connections
You can quickly reset your Xda II's
connections setup by entering this menu.
Ensure that you have selected the right
country, then choose between Pre-pay and
Postpay. The last option is to choose
between GSM or GPRS settings. You
should always use GPRS, it is a much faster
network, and you will get vastly superior
download speeds. If however you travel to
a network that does not have a GPRS
roaming agreement with O
2
, then you can
reset your Xda II connections to GSM
mode by entering this menu. Don't forget
to repeat the process and go back to GPRS
mode when you come home!
