Make sure the checkbox to the left of the Newton application is selected.
Each application in the Synchronization Settings window has a checkbox
next to it. You use this checkbox to turn synchronization on and off. If an X
appears in the checkbox, the application will be synchronized. If no X
appears, the application will not be synchronized.

Repeat steps 3 to 7 for all Newton applications you want to synchronize.
You can select any combination of applications to synchronize. Each
application you synchronize must have a file assigned and the checkbox to the
left of the application must have an X in it.

When you’ve finished setting up your synchronization, click OK.
The Synchronization Settings window disappears and synchronization begins.
Your synchronization settings are saved and remain in effect until you
change them.
After a few minutes, the applications you chose are synchronized. Information
in your Newton applications is combined with information in the computer
files you selected. Both the file and your Newton application are updated.
Note:
When you synchronize an application, the Conflict Resolution set for
the application determines how information from your Newton device is
combined with information in your computer’s file. By default, conflicting
entries in your Newton application (entries that are similar to but not identical
to entries in the computer file) are added to your computer’s file. For more
information, see “Resolving Transfer Conflicts” in Chapter 10, Setting
Advanced Options.”
