46 | Synchronizing Your Pocket PC Phone4.1 Using ActiveSyncActiveSync synchronizes information on your device with information on your PC, such as Outlook content. ActiveSync can also synchronize over a wireless or cellular network with Microsoft Exchange Server, if your company or service provider is running Microsoft Exchange Server with Exchange ActiveSync. When you synchronize, ActiveSync compares the information on your device with the information on your PC and/or Exchange Server and updates all locations with the most recent information.With ActiveSync, you can:• Synchronize information, such as Outlook E-mail, Contacts, Calendar, or Tasks information on your device with your PC, as well as pictures, video, and music.• Synchronize Outlook E-mail, Contacts, Calendar appointments, and Tasks on your device directly with Exchange Server so that you can stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.• Exchange files between your device and your PC without synchronizing.• Select which types of information are synchronized and specify how much information is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past Calendar appointments to synchronize.Before you can synchronize information with a PC, you must first install ActiveSync on your PC and create a synchronization relationship between your device and the PC. You can install ActiveSync from the Getting Started disc that comes with your device. ActiveSync is already installed on your device.Once you have installed ActiveSync and set up a synchronization relationship, ActiveSync on the PC recognizes your device when you connect it, and automatically transfers the synchronization settings you specified on your device.You may be able to synchronize your device with Exchange Server through your company or wireless service provider. If you plan to do so, obtain the name of the Exchange Server, your user name, password, and domain name from your administrator before starting the Sync Setup Wizard.

The message will download the next time you send and receive e-mail. This will also download message attachments if you selected those options when you set up the e-mail account.
Exchanging Messages and Using Outlook | 93Manage foldersEach Messaging account has its own folder hierarchy with five default Messaging folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent Items. The messages you receive and send through the account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the device. The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the Messaging options you have chosen.If you use an Outlook E-mail account, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook will be synchronized automatically with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for synchronization. The folders you create and the messages you move will then be mirrored on the e-mail 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 to that folder. You can then read the messages while you are away from your PC.If you use a text message account, messages are stored in the Inbox folder. If you use a POP3 account 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 e-mail server. The next time you connect, the e-mail server will detect that the messages are missing from the Inbox folder on the device and will delete them from the e-mail server. This prevents 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 an IMAP4 account, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the e-mail server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your e-mail server, whether it is from your device or PC. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your e-mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when connected. You can also set different download options for each folder.

120 | Experiencing MultimediaAbout licenses and protected filesSome content (such as digital media files downloaded from the Internet, CD tracks, and videos) have associated licenses that protect them from being unlawfully distributed or shared. Licenses are created and managed by using digital rights management (DRM), which is the technology for securing content and managing its access rights. Some licenses may prevent you from playing files that have been copied to your device. Files that have licenses associated with them are called “protected files.”If you want to copy a protected file from your PC to your device, use the desktop Player to synchronize the file to your device (instead of dragging the file from a folder on your PC to a folder on your device, for example). This will ensure that the license is copied along with the protected file. For more information about synchronizing files to your device and other mobile devices, see desktop Player Help. Note You can view the protection status for a file by checking its file properties (tapping Menu > Properties).To play items on your deviceUse the library to find and play songs, videos, and playlists that are stored on your device or removable storage card.1.

For more information about creating a remote connection between your device and a network, see Connections Help on your device.Copy files to your deviceUse the latest version of the desktop Player (Windows Media Player 10 or later) to synchronize digital media files to your device (instead of dragging a file from a folder on your PC to a folder on your device, for example). Using the desktop Player ensures that licenses are copied with protected files.When synchronizing files, always synchronize the files to a storage card that is inserted into your device. Do not synchronize to a storage card that is inserted into a storage card reader. In addition, do not synchronize to the internal storage location (RAM) in your device. For more information about synchronizing files to mobile devices, see desktop Player Help on the PC. Note Audio files copy faster if the desktop Player is configured to automatically set the quality level for audio files copied to your device. For more information, see desktop Player Help on the PC.

It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992.• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986.• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996.• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile CDMA phone employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg*. For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that position the antenna of the CDMA phone a minimum of 1.5cm from the body. The SAR values of this CDMA phone are 0.573 W/g (body) and 1.003 W/g (head). Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with
Appendix | 141the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: NM8PA10A. Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) web-site as http://www.devicefacts.net.* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile CDMA phone used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in usage.Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
