1 ActiveSync Summary

This section explains what you can do with ActiveSync.

ActiveSync

ActiveSync is an application for exchanging data between this device and a computer. It
can do the following.
• Synchronize
To synchronize means to compare the data on this device and on the computer and
where they are different, to make them the same. For example, the following can be
done.
– ActiveSync compares the Pocket Outlook data on this device and the Outlook data on the
computer and when one of them has older appointment and contact information,
ActiveSync updates that information to the new information.
– ActiveSync automatically converts back and forth between Pocket Word/Pocket Excel data
on this device and Word/Excel data on the computer. This makes it possible to always
have the latest information.
Critical Point
When computer Word/Excel data is converted to Pocket Word/Pocket Excel data, formats and
functions not contained in Pocket Word/Pocket Excel are dropped out.
You can set the details for synchronization, when to synchronize and which files to
synchronize. For details on how to make these settings, see "Detailed
Synchronization Settings".
