The data item types that can be synchronized are:
• Business cards
• Calendar items
• Email (with or without attachments-see below)
• Notes
Possible synchronization options for each of these data item types include:
• Do Not Synchronize - this item type will not be synchronized.
• Synchronize Microsoft Outlook - this item type will be synchronized with its matching entry in Microsoft
Outlook, regardless of the PIM that contains this entry on the remote device. If a matching Outlook entry
does not exist, it will be created.
• Synchronize Outlook Express - this item type will be synced with its matching entry in Express, regardless
of the PIM that contains this entry on the remote device. If a matching Express entry does not exist, it will
be created.
• Synchronize Lotus Notes - this item type will be synced with its matching entry in Lotus Notes, regardless
of the PIM that contains this entry on the remote device. If a matching Notes entry does not exist, it will be
created.
• Email attachments - the only option is to include or not to include attachments with email that is sent or
received on this computer using this service.
PIM Item Transfer
The Bluetooth PIM Item Transfer application allows this computer to send and receive Personal Information
Manager items to and from a remote Bluetooth device.
The supported items are:
• Business cards (*.vcf or *.vcd)
• Notes (*.vnt)
• Email (*.vmg)
• Calendar (*.vcs)
• Other Types (refer to “Configure Bluetooth” on page 12. Files can be sent by drag and drop on the OBEX
service.)
Item transfer can be accomplished several ways:
• From Windows Explorer, My Bluetooth Places, highlight the PIM Item Transfer service on a remote device,
and then, from the Bluetooth menu on the Windows menu bar, select the appropriate action.
• From within a supported Personal Information Manager:
• Select one or more items and then, from the PIM's File menu, select Send to Bluetooth.
Note: If synchronization is enabled for a specific item type, but is not enabled for that item type on
the remote device, synchronization will not take place for that item.
Note: Not all choices are available for all items. For example, Note items can only be synchronized
in Microsoft Outlook. Therefore Lotus Notes and Outlook Express are not displayed as options in the
“Notes” item shortcut menu. Personal Information Managers that are not installed on this computer
are not displayed as options in the shortcut menus.
