Synchronizing with Your Computer
Once ActiveSync is installed on your computer, you can:
■
Create an additional partnership with a second computer so
you can synchronize information.
■
Change the type of data (Contacts, Calendar, Messaging,
Tasks, Favorites, Files, Notes, or AvantGo) to synchronize.
Note:
To synchronize files, select files in your computer; then
drag and drop the files into the synchronization folder on your
device. If you named your HP iPAQ “PC1” when you created
your partnership, then the synchronized folder is named “PC1.”
When you synchronize, the files are automatically moved to and
from the PC1 folder.
