INSTALL AND SET UP THE SYNCHRONIZATION PROGRAM
If your PC is running Windows Vista, your synchronization settings will be
managed through the Windows Mobile Device Center. If your PC is running
Windows XP or earlier synchronization will be managed by ActiveSync.
ActiveSync
You can either install the application from your Windows Mobile
Getting Started CD or by downloading from:http://www.microsoft.com/
windowsmobile/activesync. Follow the on-screen instructions.
Windows Mobile Device Center
If the Windows Mobile Device Center was not pre-installed on your Windows
Vista PC, you can download the software from: http://www.microsoft.com/
windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx. Follow the on-screen instructions.
When starting Windows Mobile Device Center for the rst time, you are
prompted to create a Windows Mobile partnership with your Windows
Mobile powered device. When you set up this partnership, your selected
synchronization and le conversion settings are saved, and Device Center
will then recognize your device when you connect and use the proper
settings. Only devices that have a Windows Mobile partnership with a PC
can synchronize information with that PC.
Your PC can set up Windows Mobile partnerships with many different
Windows Mobile powered devices, but a device can have synchronization
relationships with at most two PCs. For example, you can keep the same
contact information on your PC at work, your PC at home, and your device.
No matter where you are viewing information, you will have the information
you want at your ngertips. However, you can synchronize e-mail messages
between your device and only one PC.
NOTE: If the two computers with which you want to set up synchronization relationships
are both connected to Exchange Server, you can set up a synchronization relationship
with only one of those computers.
