Synchronizing Your Pocket PC Phone

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 computers. 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.
