Tip For contacts, calendar entries and tasks
there is another backup possibility — to copy
these to and from the Media memory. See the

Local synchronization

Local synchronization is between your phone
and a connected computer. Email, contacts,
calendar events, tasks, notes (text only), and
browser bookmarks can be synchronized this
way.
Note: The Sony Ericsson PC Suite must be
installed on the computer and the chosen
connection method must have been set up in
the phone, see Connections on page 71.
To synchronize, connect your phone to the
computer using a USB, Bluetooth or infrared
connection.
