86  Synchronizing Information With Your Computer

You can take information from your computer wherever you go by 

synchronizing them to your device. The following types of information can 

be synchronized between your computer and your device:

Microsoft® Office Outlook® information, which include Outlook 

e-mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, and notes
Notes, which are created using Microsoft® Office OneNote® 2007

Media, such as pictures, music and video

Favorites, which are the bookmarked links to your favorite Web sites

Files, such as documents and other files

Before you can synchronize, you need to install and set up first the 

synchronization software on your computer. For more information, see 

“Setting Up Windows Mobile Device Center on Windows Vista®” and “Setting 

Up ActiveSync® on Windows XP®” in this chapter.

Note 

ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center only synchronizes data on your 

computer and device. If you have installed a storage card and you want to 

back up files from the storage card, use Windows Explorer on your computer 

to copy files from the storage card to your computer.

After you have installed the synchronization software on your computer, 

connect and synchronize your device with your computer by:

Upon connecting the sync cable to your device and your computer, 

the synchronization process automatically starts.
Using Bluetooth.  

You must first set up a Bluetooth partnership between your device 

and your computer before you can synchronize information between 

them using Bluetooth. For more information about setting up 

a Bluetooth partnership, see Chapter 10. For information about 

synchronizing through Bluetooth, see “Synchronizing via Bluetooth” 

later in this chapter.

Try to synchronize regularly in order to keep information up-to-date in both 

your device and your computer.
