Local synchronization
The phone is supplied with PC software for local synchronization, found at www.sonyericsson.com/
Cable
The phone synchronizes using SyncML. It con-
nects via a cable. The cable is connected directly
to the phone or alternatively via a desktop charger
connector.
Intelligent process
A synchronization engine performs the task of syn-
chronizing. For local synchronization, the synchro-
nization engine is an application that runs on the
desktop computer. The synchronization engine
compares, updates and resolves conflicts to
ensure that the information in the phone is the
same as that in the computer.
Compatibility
PC software enables synchronization with the fol-
lowing:
•
Microsoft® Outlook® 98, 2000, 2002, 2003
PC requirements are as follows:
•
Microsoft® Windows® 2000, Me, XP
•
Minimum recommended hardware configuration
for the version of Windows in use.
•
30 MB free space on hard disk
File Transfer Utility
A utility is provided which enables files to be trans-
ferred to and from the phone connected to a PC.
Typical uses for this include:
•
Moving images to the phone to use in personal-
ization, MMS messages etc.
•
Moving sound clips to/from the phone for per-
sonalization.
DRM
Digital Rights Management, DRM, is a technology
that enables secure distribution, promotion, and
sale of digital media. Examples of such content
include images, wallpapers and screen savers with
themes from films, music tones from musical art-
ists, and branded games. In other words, content
providers can control how users may use different
types of content in devices, such as mobile
phones, smartphones or PDAs. Content providers
can also control the use of content in related serv-
ices, such as MMS.
