The Microsoft

MyPal. With ActiveSync, you can synchronize the information on your
desktop computer with the information on your device. Synchronization
compares the data on your device with your desktop computer and
updates both computers with the most recent information.
For example:
•
Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your device with
Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop computer.
•
Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
device and desktop computer. Your files are automatically converted to
the correct format.
NOTE
With ActiveSync, you can also:
•
Back up and restore your device data
•
Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and desktop
computer
•
Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization
mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to
your desktop computer or only when you choose to synchronize.
•
Select which information types are synchronized and control how much
data is synchronized. For example, you can choose to synchronize your
appointments of the past two weeks only, appointments older than two
weeks are not synchronized.
For more information about using ActiveSync:
1. Start ActiveSync on your desktop computer.
2. From the Activesync menu bar, click Help then on Microsoft
