5.4  Backing Up Files

You can back up files to your PC using ActiveSync, or copy files to a 

storage card you insert into your device. Your device has an expansion 

slot compatible with a range of mini secure digital (miniSD). 

Using ActiveSync, you can copy or move information from the PC to 

the device and vice versa. Changes you make to the information on 

one computer will not affect the information on the other computer. If 

you want to automatically update information on both your device and 

PC, synchronize the information instead. For more information about 

copying and synchronizing files, see ActiveSync Help on your PC.

To copy files to a storage card 

1. 

Push the storage card into the storage card slot until it clicks into 

place. The card is secure when it does not protrude from the 

base.

2. 

Tap 

Start > Programs > File Explorer and navigate to the 

appropriate folder.

3. 

Tap and hold the file you want to copy, and tap 

Copy.

4. 

Tap the folder list (labeled 

My Documents by default) and tap 

Storage Card.

5. 

Tap 

Menu > Edit > Paste.

To copy a file using ActiveSync

Copying a file results in separate versions of a file on your device and 

PC. Because the files are not synchronized, changes made to one file 

will not affect the other. 

1. 

Connect your device to your PC. 

2. 

In ActiveSync, click 

Explore, which opens the Mobile Device 

folder for your device. 

3. 

In the Mobile Device folder, go to the file that you want to copy on 

your device or PC.
