Copy files between your Pocket PC Phone and desktop computer.

An Microsoft Companion CD is supplied with your Pocket PC Phone. You need to use the CD to install
ActiveSync on the desktop computer before perfoming synchronization.
Follow this procedure:
1. Turn on the desktop computer.
2. Insert the Companion CD into the CD-ROM drive of the desktop computer.
3. On the first screen, click the arrow to enter the main screen and click Start Here
.
4. On the next screen, click Install ActiveSync 3.x
on the left column.

Install to start installation.
6. When prompted, connect one end of the USB cable to the converter, and then connect the converter to
the USB port on the bottom of your Pocket PC Phone.
7. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port of the desktop computer.
8. The Add New Hardware Wizard should automatically install the USB driver. (If you need to specify
the location of the driver, click Browse
and select the CD-ROM drive containing the Companion CD.)
9. Follow the on-screen instructions to establish a partnership between your Pocket PC Phone and your
desktop computer. Select the types of information for synchronization. After your first synchroniza

copied to your Pocket PC Phone.
If you do not establish a standard partnership with the desktop computer, then you cannot
perform synchronization between two devices, and you will need to select a desired partnership
every time you connect to the desktop computer.
