PC. If you add, change, or delete your information in any of
these applications on the web, the updated information also
appears on your phone.
This is made possible through over-the-air data synchronization.

data synchronization icon will appear in the notification bar.
52

You can synchronize contacts, email, and other information on
your phone with multiple Google accounts or other kinds of
accounts, depending on the applications installed on your

account, so your personal emails, contacts, and calendar are

you may add multiple Google accounts or other accounts.
Adding an Account

displays your current synchronization settings and a list of
your current accounts.

from an IT support. For example, you may need to know
the account’s domain or server address.
2. Touch Add account.
3. Touch the kind of account to add.
4. Follow the onscreen steps to enter the required and optional
information about the account. Most accounts require a
username and password, but the details depend on the kind
of account and the configuration of the service to which you

you may be asked to configure what kind of data you want
53
to synchronize to the phone, to name the account, and for

Customizing Your Account
Synchronization
You can configure background data use and synchronization
settings for all the applications on your phone. You can also

Some applications, such as Contacts and Gmail, can
synchronize data from multiple accounts. Others, such as
Calendar, synchronize data only from the first Google account
you signed into on your phone, or from an account specifically
associated with the applications.
For some accounts, synchronization is bi-directional; changes
that you make to the information on your phone are made to
the copy of that information on the web. Some accounts
54
support only one-way synchronization; the information on your
phone is read-only.
Configuring General Synchronization Settings
On the Accounts & sync settings screen, do the following:
Select or clear Background data to control whether
applications and services can transmit data when you are
not directly working with them (that is, when they are
running in the background).
If you clear Background data, the Gmail application stops
receiving new mail, the Google Calendar stops
synchronizing events, and so on, until you touch Refresh or
send an email.
Select or clear Auto-sync to control whether changes you
make to information on the phone or on the web are
automatically synchronized with each other.
For example, when Auto-sync is selected, changes that you
make in Contacts on the phone are automatically made in
Google Contacts on the web.
Changing an Account’s Synchronization Settings
1. On the Accounts & sync settings screen, touch the account
whose synchronization settings you want to change. The
data and synchronization screen opens, displaying a list of
the kinds of information the account can synchronize.

phone.
