1.1 Connecting Your Phone to a Computer

Whenever you connect your phone to the computer with the USB
cable, the Connect to PC screen displays and prompts you to choose
the type of USB connection:
ActiveSync
Select this mode when you need to do the following:
• Sync Outlook email messages, contacts, calendar appointments,
files, and other data between your phone and your computer.
• Have read and write access to the whole phone.
For more information about using ActiveSync, see Chapter 6.
Disk Drive
This mode is available for selection only when you installed a microSD
card on your phone. Select this mode when you want to use your
storage card as a USB thumb drive, and copy files between your
phone's storage card and your computer faster.
When Disk Drive mode is enabled while your phone is connected to
the computer:
• You will not be able to use your phone to access files from the
storage card or run applications that are installed on the storage
card.
• Your computer will only connect to the phone's storage card.
When you access your phone from the computer, you will only
see the contents of the phone's storage card.
Internet Sharing
When you do not have Internet access on your computer, you can
select this mode to use your phone as a modem for your computer.
For more information about using Internet Sharing, see "Using Your
Phone as a Modem" in Chapter 9.
