charger and other accessories from your handset before inserting or removing your SIM card. Slide the
SIM card into the SIM card holder. Make sure that the SIM card is properly inserted and the gold contact
area on the card is facing downwards. To remove the SIM card, press down lightly and pull it gently
outwards.

ActiveSync
ActiveSync synchronizes information on your device with information on your PC, such as Outlook
content. ActiveSync can also synchronize over a 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. For newer versions of Windows, refer to the next page.
With ActiveSync, you can:
v Synchronize information, such as Outlook Email, Contacts, Calendar, or Tasks information on
your device with your PC, as well as pictures, video, and music.
v Synchronize Outlook Email, 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.
v Exchange files between your device and your PC without synchronizing.
v 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.
You can synchronize your e-mail, contacts, calendar, songs, pictures and internet favorites with
your Windows-based PC. Start by visiting this Microsoft Web site - www.microsoft.com/getstarted
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, get the email address, Exchange Server address, user
name, password, and domain name from your administrator before starting the Sync Setup Wizard.
106

Synchronizing Information
When you connect your device to the PC using a USB or Bluetooth connection, ActiveSync will
immediately synchronize. While the device is connected, ActiveSync synchronizes every time you
make a change on either the PC or the device.
Synchronizing Outlook information
If you have set up a synchronization relationship between your device and the PC, synchronization
keeps Outlook information up to date on both computers. ActiveSync synchronizes a limited amount
of information by default to save storage space on your device. You can change the amount of
information synchronized for a given information type in the Settings for the information type.
You can set up your device to synchronize with more than one PC or with a combination of one or
more PCs and Exchange Server. When synchronizing with multiple computers, the items that you
synchronize will appear on all of the computers with which they are synchronized.
For example, if you have set up synchronization with two PCs (PC1 and PC2), each with different
items, and then you synchronize Contacts and Calendar on the device with both computers, the
result is as follows:
Location New state
PC1
All Outlook contacts and calendar events that were on PC2 are now also on PC1.
PC2
All Outlook contacts and calendar events that were on PC1 are now also on PC2.
Device
All Outlook contacts and calendar events from both PC1 and PC2 are on the device.
109

Unsupported features in Excel Mobile
Excel Mobile does not fully support some features, such as formulas and cell comments. Some
data and formatting may be lost when you save the workbook to your device. Note the following
regarding Excel Mobile formatting:
v
Alignment: Horizontal, vertical, and wrap-text attributes remain the same, but vertical text
appears as horizontal text.
v
Borders: Appear as a single line.
v
Cell patterns: Patterns applied to cells are removed.
v
Fonts and font sizes: Fonts not supported by your device are mapped to the most similar font
available. The original font is listed on your device. When the workbook is opened in Excel on
your PC again, the data is displayed in the original font.
v
Number formats: Numbers formatted using the Microsoft Excel 2007 Version
6.
1 conditional
formatting feature are displayed in Number format.
118
v
Formulas and functions: If an Excel file contains a function that is not supported by Excel Mobile,
the function is removed, and only the returned value of the function appears. The following
formulas are also converted to values: formulas entered as an array or containing an array
argument, for example, =SUM({1;2;3;4}); formulas containing external link references or an
intersection range reference; and formulas containing references past row 16384 are replaced
with #REF!
v
Protection settings: Most worksheet and workbook protection features are disabled but not
removed. However, support for password protection has been removed. Workbooks that are
password protected or workbooks in which one or more worksheets are password protected
cannot be opened. You must remove the password protection in Excel on the PC and then
synchronize to open the file on the device.
v
Zoom settings: Are not retained. Excel supports a per worksheet zoom setting, while the Excel
Mobile zoom setting is applied to the entire workbook.
v
Worksheet names: Names that reference worksheets within the same workbook are displayed
accurately, but names that refer to other workbooks, arrays (e.g., ={1;2;3;4}), array formulas, or
intersection ranges are removed from the name list. If a name is removed from the list, it is left in
formulas and functions, causing those formulas to be resolved as “#NAME?”. All hidden names
are not hidden.
v
AutoFilter settings: Are removed. However, you can use the AutoFilter command in Excel Mobile
to perform similar functions.
If you have an AutoFilter applied to a worksheet that causes rows to be hidden, the rows remain
hidden when the file is opened in Excel Mobile. Use the Unhide command to display the hidden
rows.
v
Chart formatting: All charts are saved the way they are shown in Excel Mobile. Unsupported chart
types are changed to one of the following supported types: Column, Bar, Line, Pie, Scatter, or
Area. Background colors, gridlines, data labels, trend lines, shadows, 3D effects, secondary axes,
and logarithmic scales are turned off.
v
Worksheet features: The following features are not supported in Excel Mobile and are removed or
modified when a workbook is opened on the device: hidden sheets are not hidden; VBA modules,
macro sheets, and dialog sheets are removed and replaced with placeholder sheets; text boxes,
drawing objects, pictures, lists, conditional formats, and controls are removed; pivot table data is
converted into values.
