Synchronization and backup
With
PC Suite for P908
installed in your PC, your P908 can
synchronize with the following PC applications, also called
Personal Information Managers (PIMs):
•
Lotus® Organizer® 5 & 6
•
Lotus® Notes® 5.0, 6
•
Microsoft® Outlook® 98, 2000, 2002
Synchronization is divided into local and remote. Local
synchronization is performed directly to a connected PC while
remote synchronization is done over the air with a remote server
in, for example, a corporate network.
The manual describes the easiest way to perform the tasks but
you can also carry out most of them by selecting
Start > Programs
> Sony Ericsson > P908
in the PC and then select the desired
command.
Refer to the online help find in
Help
in the menu bar in the PC
software to get more information about synchronization and
backup.
Note If you have imported SIM phone book entries into
Contacts
in your P908, these entries will not be synchronized with the
corresponding entries in your PC when synchronising your
P908 and PC. You will instead get duplicates in your P908.
Local synchronization
Local synchronization is done with either cable, infrared or
Bluetooth wireless technology. The functionality is the same.
E-mail, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Jotter notes (only text)
can be synchronized locally.
Local synchronization settings
Local synchronization is initiated from the PC and all settings
are made in the P908 PC software (included on the
PC Suite for
P908
CD).
