Synchronising Information With Your Computer
Note Before changing synchronisation settings on your device, disconnect it from
your PC.
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Options.
2. Select the check box for any items you want to synchronise. If you
cannot select a check box, you might have to clear the check box for
the same information type elsewhere in the list.
3. To change synchronisation settings for an information type, for
instance, E-mail, select it and tap Settings.
You can then set the download size limit, specify the time period of
information to download, and more.
Note Some information types such as Favourites, Files and Media cannot be
selected in ActiveSync Options on your device. You can only select or clear
these items from your PC’s Windows Mobile Device Center or ActiveSync.
Synchronise with more than one computer
If you have set up a synchronisation partnership between your device and
the PC, synchronisation keeps Outlook information up-to-date on both your
device and PC.
A PC can have sync partnerships with many different Windows Mobile
powered devices, but a device can have sync partnerships with at most two
PCs only. To ensure that your device will synchronise properly with both
PCs, set up the second PC using the same synchronisation settings you used
on the first PC.
Notes •
Outlook e-mail can be synchronised with only one computer.
•
To stop synchronising with one PC completely, tap Menu > Options, tap
the computer name, then tap Delete.
Sync connection problem
The desktop Microsoft ActiveSync 4.0 and later versions utilize a network
type of connection with Windows Mobile powered devices, since this allows
faster data transfer than a serial USB connection. When the PC is connected
to the Internet or a local network, in some cases, the PC may disconnect the
connection with your device in favor of the Internet or network connection.
