Synchronizing E-mail Messages E-mail messages can be synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. You will need to enable Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync. For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the PC. During synchronization: • Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on your desktop computer to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your device. By default, you will receive messages from the past three days only, the first 100 lines of each message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size. • E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those programs. • E-mail messages in subfolders must be selected in ActiveSync on your desktop computer in order to be transferred. 81 Toshiba Pocket PC e750/e755 User’s Guide Using the Message List Messages you receive are displayed in the message list.

When you connect to your e-mail server or synchronize with your desktop computer, by default, you’ll receive messages from the last five days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size. The original messages remain on the e-mail server or your desktop computer. You can mark the messages that you want to retrieve in full during your next synchronization or e-mail server connection. In the message list, tap and hold the message you want to retrieve. On the pop-up menu, tap Mark for Download. The icons in the Inbox message list give you visual indications of message status.

The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the device. The behavior of the Deleted and Sent Items folders depends on the options you have chosen. In the message list, tap Tools and then Options. On the Message tab, select your options. If you want to organize messages into additional folders, tap Tools, and then Manage Folders to create new folders. To move a message to another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message and then tap Move to on the pop-up menu. Folder behavior with a direct connection to an e-mail server The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4. • If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook will automatically be synchronized with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and the messages you move will then be mirrored on the server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family, and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the messages while away from your desktop computer. • If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder. • If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the device and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and delete them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the device. • If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your device or desktop computer. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when connected. 86 Chapter 5: Companion Programs The companion programs consist of Microsoft® Pocket Word, Microsoft® Pocket Excel, Microsoft® Money, Windows Media™ Player for Toshiba Pocket PC e750/e755, and Microsoft® Reader.

Tap on the name of the file you want to load. You can then choose from the following view modes. Normal View Normal view allows you to view the current slide in the upper pane, while still able to navigate slides conveniently using the lower thumbnail pane. You can drag the Splitter Bar that divides the two panes up or down, to adjust the screen distribution above and below the splitter. The Normal View icon is located at the leftmost side of the Toolbar, as shown below. You can also use the stylus to pan the slide image in the upper pane to show the part covered by the lower pane. The splitter position will automatically be remembered across multiple application sessions, freeing you from having to adjust the splitter position again during the current IA Presenter session. To display a different slide in the upper pane, simply tap on the desired thumbnail in the lower pane, or use the Slide Title Bar (unnamed slides will be represented by a number in the Slide Title Bar drop-down list). The lower thumbnail pane in Normal view provides slide navigation. If you want to select multiple slides for further operations, use the Slide Sorter view, as explained in the next section. You can project the currently selected slide to VGA Display by activating the VGA Slide Toggle command on the View Menu, or by tapping the VGA Slide Output Toggle icon at the rightmost side of the Toolbar. To end the projection, select the command again to toggle it off. Slide Sorter Slide Sorter view fills the entire application space with either large or small thumbnails, depending on whether Large Thumbnail or Small Thumbnail is active on the View Menu. You can select: • • • One slide by tapping on it, or Multiple adjacent slides by dragging your stylus over them, or If you select Multiple Select Mode on the Edit Menu, you can tap, drag, or a combination thereof, to select multiple slides that are separated. Selected slides will be highlighted by a different border color. 162 Chapter 10: Optional Functions You can project an individual slide to the VGA output by activating the VGA Slide Toggle command on the View Menu, or by tapping the VGA Slide Output Toggle icon at the rightmost side of the Toolbar. When you activate this function: • • • If one slide is selected at the time you toggle the VGA Slide Output “on,” that slide will be output to the VGA Display. If multiple slides happen to be selected, the first selected slide in the sequence will be output to the VGA Display. If no slides are selected, there is no change to the current status of the VGA Display. That is, if an image is already displayed on the VGA Display, that image remains until you select a slide on your LCD screen for projection. To end the projection and return to viewing the slide only on your mobile device’s screen, just select the command again (or tap the icon a second time) to toggle it off. Indicator Icons under Thumbnails Under each thumbnail in Slide Sorter view mode, there may be various small icons displayed which indicate the status/attributes of the slide, as follows: The transition icon indicates that a transition effect has been associated with the slide, and tapping the icon will “demo” the transition effect. - The shape icon indicates that the slide contains animated shapes. - If you assigned a transition delay-time to the slide in the Automatically field of the Edit Menu > Slide Transition... screen, the delaytime will be shown. The slide number is always shown at the right. If the slide has been hidden using the Hide Slide command on the Edit Menu, the slide number will be enclosed in a red box with a line crossing it out. 163 Toshiba Pocket PC e750/e755 User’s Guide Notes Page Notes Page view displays the current slide content in the upper pane, with the lower pane displaying the speaker notes that were entered for the original PowerPoint presentation, or entered/edited in IA Presenter. The upper pane operation is the same as in Normal view. The lower pane is both a Notes display window and an editing window. After editing a Note, tap OK in the upper right corner to save it. When in Notes Page view mode, you can project the currently-selected slide to VGA output by activating the VGA Slide Toggle command on the View Menu, or by tapping the VGA Slide Output Toggle icon at the rightmost side of the Toolbar. To end the projection and return to viewing the slide only on your mobile device screen, just select the command again to toggle it off. Quick Notes The Quick Notes command on the View Menu (and the Quick Notes View icon on the Toolbar) gives you a view mode that combines the thumbnail images of Slide Sorter view with the Notes pane of the Notes Page view. When you tap on a thumbnail, a border around it indicates it is selected. You can also use the Up, Down, Left, or Right buttons on your mobile device to move the selection focus (or the Slide Title Bar, if you chose to display it). The lower pane displays the Speaker Notes that were entered for the original PowerPoint presentation, or entered/edited in IA Presenter. The lower pane is both a Notes display window and an editing window. Tap in the lower pane to start editing a Speaker Note. The editing functionality is the same as for Notes Page view. If the Cut/Copy/Paste/Clear/Undo/Select All commands are required for editing the text, press your stylus within the Notes pane to activate the pop-up editing menu. The Notes-editing operation can be undone by selecting the multiple-steps Undo command on the Edit Menu, pop-up menu, or Toolbar. 164 Chapter 10: Optional Functions Slide Show The Slide Show command on the View Menu starts a full screen Slide Show on the Pocket PC’s LCD screen. (If you want to project the slide show to VGA output, you must use the VGA Slide Show command.) Before selecting Slide Show or VGA Slide Show, you should select Set Up Show... from the Tools Menu to set up the desired behavior for your slide show. If the Auto-Rotate option is checked in the Tools > Options > Display tab, the slide will be automatically rotated according to the direction you choose (Left or Right). Depending on the slide advancement setting specified in the Slide Transition dialog box, you can tap to advance the slide (or the next animated object); use the navigation (arrows) buttons of your Pocket PC to advance/ back play the slides; or, IA Presenter will automatically advance slides based on the number of seconds (delaytime) you set. Sound effects will also be played according to your assignment. Pop-Up Menu for Slide Show Mode If the Show Popup-Menu Button option is checked in the ToolsJOptions JDisplay tab, a small transparent icon will be shown in the upper left corner of the LCD screen. Tapping on the small icon will activate the Slide Show mode’s pop-up control menu. If this option isn’t checked, you can always tap-and-hold your stylus during Slide Show mode to activate the pop-up menu. The commands on the menu are explained below. Next / Previous Displays the next or previous slide, or next or previous animated object (if the animated object display was designed). Hidden slides won’t be shown. Go The Go submenu allows you to jump to the First Slide, Last Slide, Previously Viewed Slide, or jump to any slide using Navigate by Title. Trigger If the Trigger mode is selected, the slide show will advance according to the mode you set using the ToolsJSet Up Show... command or Set Up Show icon. For example, if you have specified to advance the slides manually, they will advance each time you tap on the screen. If the slide show is set to play automatically, you can use the pop-up menu to put it on pause or end it immediately. IA Presenter is set to Trigger mode by default. 165 Toshiba Pocket PC e750/e755 User’s Guide Pen Select the Pen command to enter Ink annotation mode. During the Ink annotation mode, you can use the stylus to mark or highlight the presentation elements on the screen. To exit the Ink annotation mode, select the Trigger, VGA Pointer, or VGA Zoom mode from the pop-up menu. Use the Pen Color submenu to choose the Ink color, and use the Pen Width submenu to choose a thickness. If Pen mode is active when you select Blank from the Screen submenu, you will be able to draw or write Ink annotation on the projected black screen. (The Screen submenu also lets you undo the most recent Ink stroke, or erase all of the Ink strokes.) VGA Pointer This mode works only when IA Presenter is in VGA Slide Show view. After you select the VGA Pointer command, your stylus movements on the LCD screen will simulate a laser pen light on the VGA screen during presentations. (To exit the VGA Pointer mode, select Trigger, Pen, or VGA Zoom from the pop-up menu.) VGA Zoom This mode works only when IA Presenter is in VGA Slide Show view. After you select the VGA Zoom mode, you will be able to specify a portion of the screen which will be projected to the VGA screen, and also a zoom ratio for that specific area. (To exit VGA Zoom mode, select Trigger, Pen, or VGA Pointer from the pop-up menu.) The message that appears on your screen when you invoke VGA Zoom mode depends on the value that is currently selected on the VGA Zoom Size submenu. The message will either tell you to tap-and-drag your stylus to define an area yourself, or it will tell you to simply tap your stylus to create a zoom area of pre-defined size. You can specify the zoom ratio using the VGA Zoom Ratio submenu, accessed from the Slide Show pop-up menu. Pen Color Tapping Pen Color opens a submenu of available colors to use for your Ink annotation when in Pen mode. Select one of the available colors as the new pen color. The Reset command resets the pen color to the default White color. 166 Chapter 10: Optional Functions Pen Width Tapping Pen Width opens a submenu of available pen widths to use for your Ink annotation when in Pen mode. Select a thickness settings as the new pen width to be used for Ink strokes on the LCD screen (and projection to VGA output, if desired). The 1 Unit option is the thinnest setting. Higher values give you thicker widths. VGA Zoom Size The VGA Zoom Size command opens a submenu of “zoom area” options. When you invoke VGA Zoom mode by selecting it on the pop-up menu, the current setting on the VGA Zoom Size submenu will be activated. The Quarter, Large, Medium, Small, and Tiny settings on the submenu represent pre-defined areas. For example, if Quarter is selected, tapping on your LCD screen will automatically produce a rectangular area which is the size of one-quarter of your LCD screen (centered around the spot where you tapped). The “zoom area” will be displayed on top of the already-existing projection of the entire slide on the VGA screen. After the rectangular zoom area exists on your screen, you can drag it to any part of the screen you wish. It can also be converted to any of the other pre-defined sizes by pressing your stylus on the LCD screen to open the pop-up menu again, then selecting a different value from the VGA Zoom Size submenu. The size of the existing area will then be changed accordingly. If you select Drag Select on the submenu, you will be able to drag your stylus on the LCD screen and freely define any area for zooming. After the desired area has been specified, you can drag it to any portion of the screen. You can also resize it by dragging any of its corners. To specify the zoom ratio for the projected zoom area, use the VGA Zoom Ratio command. VGA Zoom Ratio The VGA Zoom Ratio command opens a submenu of pre-defined “zoom ratio” options. When you invoke VGA Zoom mode by selecting it on the pop-up menu, the current setting on the VGA Zoom Ratio submenu will be activated. Screen The Screen submenu contains commands that allow you to pause a Slide Show (Pause Auto Play), project a blank screen (Blank), undo the most recent Ink stroke (Clear Last Pen), or erase all Ink strokes (Clear All Pen). 167 Toshiba Pocket PC e750/e755 User’s Guide Pause Auto Play If you have specified that you want slides to advance automatically after a specified number of seconds (using the Set Up Show... command on the Tools Menu or the Set Up Show icon on the Toolbar), you can select Pause Auto Play during the playing of a slide show to pause the show. When ready to continue the automatic progress of a slide show, tap Resume Auto Play. Blank When you select Blank, your LCD screen will become completely black, and the black screen will also be projected to your VGA screen. (After you have selected Blank, the command name changes to Restore. Tap Restore when you are ready to return to the slide that was previously displayed.) Using the Blank Option with Pen Mode: When the Blank option is active and IA Presenter is in Pen mode, you can write or draw digital Ink on the screen, and it will be output to the VGA device. In effect, this allows you to project an “electronic blackboard” which you might find useful when giving a presentation to an audience. Be aware that any Ink strokes you draw on the Blank screen will be lost when you exit Blank mode. They cannot be retained. When IA Presenter is in VGA Zoom mode or VGA Pointer mode, the Blank option is not available. Clear Last Pen Erases the last individual Ink stroke. This command can be applied repeatedly until there are no more Ink strokes in the current slide. Clear All Pen Erases all the pen strokes on the current slide. Speaker Notes This command displays the current slide’s Note text (if any) in a pop-up window, with the slide number also shown, on top of the displayed slide. To advance the slide or object when the Speaker Notes window is shown, tap on the underlying slide. When you advance the slides, the Speaker Notes window remains open and interactively displays the Note text of the related slide. To close the Speaker Notes window, tap the “X” in the upper right corner. 168 Chapter 10: Optional Functions End Show This command terminates the Slide Show playback mode and returns to the mode you were using prior to entering Slide Show mode. The Action button on your Pocket PC can also be used to exit Slide Show mode. VGA Slide Show VGA Slide Show mode operates almost identically to the Slide Show mode, except for the following operational differences: • You should use the VGA Output tab in the ToolsJOptions... command to set VGA output-related options. You can also elect to have IA Presenter perform dithering for your slide if you project your slide to an external VGA/video device with less color capability (such as only 256 colors available). • During VGA Slide Show mode, the presentation output will be directed to both the Pocket PC’s LCD screen and the external connected VGA device or video device. The Pocket PC will always show the reduced size version, while the VGA/video device will view the original matching dimensions set during ActiveSync conversion. Or if your current presentation has a dimension specified which is different from the exact dimension of your selected output dimension, IA Presenter will automatically resize the slides to fit the output dimensions. • The Ink annotation will be projected to both the VGA video device and the LCD screen. • You can use VGA Zoom on the pop-up menu to designate an area on a slide during VGA Slide Show view, and project that specific area to the VGA screen (on top of the already-existing projection of the entire slide). Use the VGA Zoom Size command to specify an area of predefined size, or manually drag your stylus on the LCD screen to specify the desired area of the slide. Then use the VGA Zoom Ratio command to choose the ratio at which you want the zoomed area to be projected. After the “zoom window” has been created, it can be dragged to enclose other portions of the slide on your LCD screen, and this movement will also be reflected in the projected image on the VGA output. • You can use the VGA Pointer command on the pop-up menu to enable movements of your stylus on the LCD screen to simulate a laser pen light on the VGA screen during VGA Slide Show presentations. • In addition to being able to draw digital Ink annotation on your slides, you can project a black screen to the VGA output and write or draw projected Ink on it. To use Ink on the blank screen, make sure you are in Pen mode on the Slide Show pop-up menu before selecting Blank from the Screen submenu. 169 Toshiba Pocket PC e750/e755 User’s Guide In addition, before a VGA Slide Show can be projected to a VGA screen, you must specify the appropriate settings.
