Synchronizing information
By default, ActiveSync does not enable automatic synchronization of all types of
information. To select the types of information you want synchronized, on either your
device or your computer, go to Menu, then Options. This section gives you an overview
of the types of Outlook information you can synchronize.
Synchronizing Inbox
When you select E-mail for synchronization in ActiveSync, email messages are
synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. During synchronization,
the following events occur:
•
Messages are copied from the Outlook Inbox folder on your computer, or
from a Microsoft Exchange server, to the Inbox folder (under the ActiveSync
account) on your device.
•
By default, when synchronizing Inbox information with your computer, you
receive only messages from the last three days and the first 0.5 KB of each
new message. You can also choose to download file attachments.
•
The messages on your device and on your computer are linked. When you
delete a message on your device, it is also deleted from your computer the
next time you synchronize and vice versa.
•
Messages in subfolders in other email folders in Outlook are synchronized
only if the folders have been selected for synchronization in Inbox on your
device.
NOTE: Text messages are not received in Inbox through synchronization. Instead, they are sent to your
device by way of your mobile service provider.
Synchronizing Calendar
•
Calendar items created on your device are copied to your computer and/or
on a Microsoft Exchange server during synchronization, and vice versa. By
default, Calendar items from the last two weeks are synchronized.
•
Similarly, Calendar items that are deleted from your device are deleted from
your computer and/or server during synchronization, and vice versa.
Synchronizing Contacts
•
Contacts created on your device are copied to your computer or on a
Microsoft Exchange server during synchronization, and vice versa. By
default, all of your contacts are synchronized.
•
Similarly, contacts that are deleted from your device are deleted from your
computer and/or server during synchronization, and vice versa.
Synchronizing Tasks
•
Task synchronization is, by default, automatically selected in ActiveSync.
•
Tasks can only be synchronized with your computer; they cannot be
synchronized with a server.
