It is important to back up your iQue M3 files and settings periodically. When you back up files with ActiveSync, you will store an 

“image” of the files, folders, and settings on your iQue M3. Then, if you lose data for some reason, you can restore your iQue to the 

last image you saved.

Backing up files from your iQue M3 to your computer

1.  Open 

ActiveSync on your desktop computer.

2.  From the 

Tools menu, choose Backup/Restore.

3.  Choose whether you want to do a full backup (saves all information) or an incremental backup (saves any information that has changed 

since last backup).

4.  Choose where you want to save the backup file. If you want to back up your iQue M3 each time you synchronize, check the box next to 

“Automatically back up each time the device connects.”

5.  Click
