• INITIATE SYNCHRONIZATION

PC Sync initiates synchronization between your phone and PC when you start the program from the Start menu. To resynchronize
your data while the program is still running, right-click the PC Sync tray icon, then click Synchronize.

• USE THE NEW SYNCHRONIZATION COMMAND

If at some point you change PIM applications or upgrade to a newer version of your current PIM, you must configure PC Sync to
work with the new application. Select New Synchronization from the Nokia PC Suite program group, then follow the instructions
on page 13.
Important: New Synchronization is not the command to use when you want to start PC Sync and initiate synchronization
between your phone and PC.

• CREATING A CUSTOM CONTACT LIST

Users who have up to 500 contacts in their PIM should create a custom
contact list or subset of their master contact list. Depending on the PIM
application you use, you may need to create a new contact database file or
create a new folder to store the custom contact list.
Outlook users
Outlook users can create folders and sub-folders in their Outlook database
files. To create a custom contact list, first create a new folder to store
contacts. Then copy the desired contact information from your main contacts
folder to the new folder. PC Sync allows you to synchronize your phone with
the Outlook contacts folder of your choosing.
