Synchronizing Information
73
Tasks created on your Smartphone are copied to your desktop computer
during synchronization, and vice versa. Similarly, tasks that are deleted from
your Smartphone are deleted from your desktop computer during
synchronization, and vice versa. This keeps your information up-to-date in all
locations.
Note: Tasks can be synchronized only with your desktop computer; they
cannot be synchronized with a server.
Synchronizing using an infrared connection
You can use an infrared connection to create a direct connection between your
Smartphone and another mobile device or desktop computer quickly. This
method is ideal for quickly changing between multiple devices because there
are no cables or adapters to change. When creating a partnership, you must
connect using infrared, a cable, or a cradle connection.
For more information about synchronizing using an infrared connection or
other connection types, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer.
ActiveSync errors
Whenever ActiveSync cannot successfully synchronize your information, it
displays an error on your Smartphone.
4 To view more information about an ActiveSync error
§ Press the Action button when the error text is displayed. ActiveSync will
then display more information about the error that occurred.
Note: Some types of errors can interfere with automatic synchronization. If
you suspect that a scheduled automatic synchronization has not occurred, you
should attempt to manually synchronize your information. Successfully
completing manual synchronization will reset automatic synchronization. For
more information, see the “Synchronizing Information” section of ActiveSync
Help on your desktop computer.
