Section 4: Contacts and Accounts
This section explains how to manage your contacts and
accounts.
Accounts
Your phone provides the ability to synchronize information from a
variety of accounts, including Google, a Corporate Exchange
server, and social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter,
and MySpace. With synchronization, you can ensure that
information on your phone is updated with any information that
changes in your accounts.
Synchronize contacts with your Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace
accounts.
Note:
You must register your phone with your social network site before
using the phone to access the networks.
With Corporate Exchange, Google, and Facebook accounts you
can synchronize Calendar events and Contacts.
Tip:
For more information on setting up your email contact your service
provider.
Setting Up Your Accounts

accounts, see
