Microsoft ActiveSync
Using Microsoft
®
ActiveSync

,you can synchronize the information on
your computer with the information on your device. Synchronization
compares the data on your device with your PC and updates both
computers with the most recent information. For example:
■ Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your device
with Microsoft Outlook data on your PC.
■ Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
device and computer.
Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.
By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of
information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off for
specific information types.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
■ Back up and restore your device data.
■ Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and
computer.
■ Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization
mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected
to your computer or only when you choose the synchronize
command.
■ Select which information types are synchronized and control how
much data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many
weeks of past appointments you want synchronized.
Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your PC from the
Toshiba Pocket PC Companion CD. For more information on installing
ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installed on
your device.
After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you
connect your Pocket PC to your PC, set up a partnership so you can
synchronize information between your Pocket PC and your PC, and
customize your synchronization settings. Your first synchronization
process will automatically begin when you finish using the wizard.
