Chapter 3:
Microsoft ActiveSync
Using ActiveSync, you can synchronize information between your Toshiba
Pocket PC e830 and your PC or server. Synchronization compares the
data on your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 with the data residing on your PC
and updates both with the most recent information. For example:
•
Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your Toshiba
Pocket PC e830 with Microsoft Outlook data on your PC.
•
Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
Toshiba Pocket PC e830 and your PC.
Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.
ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types
of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchroni-
zation on and off for specific information types.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
•
Change synchronization settings and synchronization schedule.
•
Copy files between your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 and PC.
•
Back up and restore your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 information.
•
Add and remove programs on your Toshiba Pocket PC e830.
Before synchronizing, confirm that ActiveSync version 3.7.1 (build 4034)
or later is installed on your PC. You can install ActiveSync 3.7.1 from the
Toshiba Pocket PC Companion CD.
After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you con-
nect and synchronize information between your Toshiba Pocket PC e830
and your PC, and customize your synchronization settings. Your first syn-
chronization process begins when you finish using the wizard.
After your first synchronization, take a look at Calendar, Contacts, and
Tasks on your Toshiba Pocket PC e830. The information you stored in
Microsoft Outlook on your PC has been copied to your Toshiba Pocket PC
e830, and you did not have to type a word. Disconnect your Toshiba
Pocket PC e830 from your PC and you are ready to go!
Once you have set up ActiveSync and completed the first synchronization
