Chapter 6.Synchronizing 6.1 Introduction to ActiveSync Your device contains ActiveSync software that allows you to create a synchronization relationship between your mobile device and your PC. This means that when your device is connected to your PC, data is shared between your device and PC according to your preferences. If you make a change in one place, the next time you connect PC and device together, the change is automatically made to the corresponding information on the other machine. You may connect to your PC using a cable, or using a Bluetooth or infrared connection. To allow the connection to be made, the ActiveSync software provided on the in-box CD must also be installed on your PC. To access e-mails or other Outlook information when you are away from your PC, you may also connect your device to your Microsoft Exchange E-mail server. This connection may be performed over GPRS, or using your PC as a way of connecting back to the Internet. If your Exchange Server is running Exchange 2003 Service Pack 2, you may also be able to receive Push e-mails, whereby any new e-mails are sent directly to your device. 6.2 Installing and Configuring ActiveSync You can either install ActiveSync from your Windows Mobile Getting started CD or by downloading from http://www.microsoft.com/ windows mobile/addons/default.mspx After the software has been installed and the USB cable is connected between your PC and the phone, the ActiveSync setup wizard starts up. Click Next to continue.
If you only intend to synchronize directly with your Microsoft Exchange Server and not your PC, select the option below. The alternative is to sync your phone with your PC. Note that you cannot do both at the same time while connected to your PC. The next few steps are self-explanatory to follow through from the screen information. Please select the appropriate options required.
If you have a PC which is already fully synchronized with your Exchange Server, then synchronize your device to your PC the very first time instead of synchronizing through to the Exchange Server. This will allow faster synchronization. To synchronize direct through to your Exchange Server instead of your PC, click the box above and enter the Exchange Server details as shown below . Ensure that your PC has a connection which is accessible to the Server as the setup will check the connection and that your User name / Password settings above are valid also.
You can view additional settings information by selecting an item and clicking Settings below. For example, you may choose to synchronize details of your Calendar for the past two weeks only:
The time required for the synchronization depends on how much data is to be transferred.
When the synchronization has completed successfully, details from your selected data types will be shown on your Today screen. For example in the diagram below, an upcoming Calendar appointment and unread emails are displayed: Change ActiveSync settings After setting up synchronization using the Sync Setup wizard on the PC, the synchronization settings can subsequently be changed: • If you want to change ActiveSync settings when synchronizing with your PC, use the «Changing the amount of information synchronized» section in the Help files on your PC. • If you want to change ActiveSync settings for synchronizing through to your Exchange Server, use the ActiveSync settings on your device, as described in «Change settings for an information type.»
Change settings for an information type Before changing synchronization settings on the device, first disconnect it from your PC. 1. On the phone Today screen, click Start > Programs > ActiveSync > Menu > Options. 2. Select one of the information types. 3. Do one of the following: • To view or change settings for an information type (when available), click Settings. • To view or change settings for a computer or Exchange Server, click Menu > Settings. 4. Change the amount of information to be synchronized or other settings. 5. Click Done (or Finish in the Exchange Server settings wizard). Connecting to a PC using Bluetooth 1. Follow the instructions in ActiveSync Help on the PC for configuring Bluetooth on your PC to support ActiveSync.

From the device Today screen, click Start > Programs > ActiveSync. 3. Click Menu > Connect via Bluetooth. Ensure that the phone and PC are within close range. 4. If this is the first time you have connected to this PC via Bluetooth, you must complete the Bluetooth wizard on the phone and set up a Bluetooth partnership with the PC before synchronizing. 5. Click Sync. 6. When finished, click Menu> Disconnect Blue tooth. 7. To preserve battery power, turn off Bluetooth.
Ensure that the PC ActiveSync Serial port corresponds to the PC’s Bluetooth Serial port configuration. In the example below the Bluetooth Serial Port has already been set up as COM4 by the computer. Because COM4 is allocated to Bluetooth, the ‘Allow connections to one of the following’ has been set to ‘COM4’ to match this. In the sample screenshot below, the PC Bluetooth Manager indicates the Bluetooth Serial Port is set to COM4.
Mixed synchronization settings between Exchange Server and PC If, for example, you wish to sync your phone to Exchange Server for Email and Tasks, and to your PC for Contacts and Calendar, from your phone, click Start > Programs > ActiveSync > Menu > Options and select from the list as shown. Before connecting your device to your PC, you may first need to check your ActiveSync Connection settings by double clicking on the ActiveSync icons at the bottom right of your PC screen.

About licenses and protected files Some 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. You can view the protection status for a file by checking its file roper ties (tapping Menu > Properties).

Copying files to your device Use 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 in your device. For more information about synchronizing files to mobile devices, see desktop Player Help on the PC. 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.

Chapter 8.Maintaining your phone 8.1 Maintaining your phone Your phone is a well-designed and engineered product and the following tips and suggestions will enable you to obtain the best use of your phone for many years. ▪ Keep the phone in a dry environment. If the phone or battery were to get wet due to misuse, this can invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty. ▪ Do not use the phone with wet hands to avoid any shocks and risks of water entering into the device, thereby increasing the risk of damage to internal circuits. This applies also if you have to replace the SIM or micro SD card inside the phone for whatever reason. ▪ Keep the phone and its accessories out of reach of young children and pets. They may accidentally damage the phone or risk swallowing the smaller components. ▪ Avoid storing the phone in hot environments as high temperatures can shorten the life of electronic components. There is the risk that the plastic casing can warp or melt if the temperature is high enough. ▪ Also please avoid storing the phone in cold environments. When the phone is switched on and warms up to its normal operating temperature, moisture can form inside the devices which may damage the circuit boards internally. ▪ Avoid dropping or any hard knocks to the phone as these shocks can damage the internal circuit boards. ▪ If you need to clean the phone, wipe it with a soft clean cloth – avoid use of cleaning solvents or detergents. DO NOT use water to clean the LCD screen. ▪ Do not attempt to respray or paint the phone. ▪ Do not keep the phone in or near heat sources such as a radiator or microwave oven – this can cause the battery inside the phone to overheat and explode. ▪ Ensure that the volume is turned down if you are using headphones.
▪ If the phone does not work, carry out some basic troubleshooting checks and try the reset procedures described in the following section. If the problem persists, please do not attempt to service or repair the device yourself as this may invalidate the terms of the warranty with the device provider. The repair should be carried out by an authorized service provider. 8.2 Resetting Your Pocket PC Phone Occasionally you may need to reset your Pocket PC Phone. A normal (or soft) reset of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when the device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost. You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard reset should be performed only if a normal reset does not solve a system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings — the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered, and settings you customized on the device will be lost. Only Windows Mobile software and other pre-installed programs will remain. 8.3 Installing your SIM card Follow these steps to install the GSM SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card provided by your local network service provider.
