4.2 Synchronizing Information
When you connect your device to the PC using a USB or serial cable,
an infrared connection, or a Bluetooth connection, ActiveSync will
immediately synchronize. While the device is connected, ActiveSync
synchronizes every time you make a change on either the PC or the
device.
Synchronizing Outlook information
If you have set up a synchronization relationship between your device
and the PC, synchronization keeps Outlook information up-to-date
on both the computer and Windows Mobile device. ActiveSync
synchronizes a limited amount of information by default to save storage
space on your device. You can change the amount of information
synchronized for a given information type in Settings for the information
type.
You can set up your device to synchronize with more than one PC or
with a combination of one or more PCs and Exchange Server. When
synchronizing with multiple computers, the items that you synchronize
will appear on all of the computers with which they are synchronized.
For example, if you have set up synchronization with two PCs (PC1
and PC2), which have different items, and you synchronize Contacts
and Calendar on the device with both computers, the result is as
follows:
Location New state
PC1
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments that were on
PC2 are now also on PC1.
PC2
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments that were on
PC1 are now also on PC2.
Device
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments from both PC1
and PC2 are on the device.
Note Outlook e-mail can be synchronized with only one computer.
