Using ActiveSync

Use ActiveSync to transfer and synchronize files between the PDA and the
Host PC.
Setting up a Partnership
During the Microsoft ActiveSync installation, you were prompted to create a
partnership with your mobile device. When you set up a partnership, you
select synchronization and file conversion settings, which are contained in a
file on your desktop computer. This file enables your desktop computer to rec-
ognize your device. Only devices that have a partnership with a desktop com-
puter can synchronize information between the two computers.
Partnerships are stored in ActiveSync and have the same name as the corre-
sponding device. Your desktop computer can set up partnerships with many
different mobile devices, but a device can have partnerships with only two
computers.
For more information on partnerships, please refer to your Microsoft Active-
Sync documentation or help file.
