Saving device memory
Mobile favorites take up storage memory on your device. To minimize the
amount of memory used:
• In the settings for the Favorites information type in ActiveSync options,
turn off pictures and sounds, or stop some mobile favorites from being
downloaded to the device. For more information, see ActiveSync Help.
• Limit the number of downloaded linked pages. In Interner Explorer on
your desktop computer, right-click the mobile favorite you want to
change, then click Properties. In the Download tab, specify 0 or 1 for
the number of linked pages you want to download.
