Before you can synchronize remotely, the desktop PC or network server must
be configured to allow your HP Jornada to connect. If the desktop PC uses
Windows NT or Windows 2000, you must install and configure Remote Access
Services. If it uses Windows 95/98/Me, install and configure Dial-Up
Networking.
You must also ensure that ActiveSync is configured to allow a network
connection. By default, ActiveSync allows a network connection; however, to
confirm the setting or to enable connection if it has been disabled, follow the
procedure below.

Follow these steps to prepare your desktop PC before you leave:
•
If you are using a modem on your desktop PC, turn the modem on before
you leave.
•
Leave your desktop PC on, and be sure you logged on under the same
user name that you used when you created the partnership.
•
Ensure your PIM program and e-mail program (Microsoft Outlook or
Microsoft Exchange) are running.
If you receive an error message on your HP Jornada that states that an
information type needs attention, or if unresolved items are reported after
synchronization, you need to synchronize directly with your desktop PC using
a serial cable, cradle, or infrared connection.
