Section 5: Accounts and Contacts
This section explains how to manage your accounts and
contacts.
Accounts
Your phone provides the ability to synchronize information
from a variety of accounts, including Google, a Microsoft
Exchange
®
server and Web interface, and social networking
sites such as Hotmail, Yahoo!, Facebook, Twitter, and
MySpace. With synchronization, you can ensure that
information on your phone is updated with any information
that changes in your accounts, including Contacts
information.
Note:
You must register your phone with your social network
site before using the phone to access the networks.
With Corporate Exchange and Google accounts you can
synchronize Calendar events as well as Contacts.
Tip:
For more information on setting up your email, contact
your Wireless Provider and your E-mail Service Provider.
For information about setting up other, non-synchronized
email accounts, see
“Configuring Email Accounts”
on
page 72.
