completes, the Sync Setup Wizard automatically starts when you connect your device
to the PC.
2.
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the wizard. In the Sync Setup Wizard,

Synchronizing Information and Setting Up E-mail Security | 31
Note When you finish the wizard, ActiveSync synchronizes your device automatically. Once
synchronization is complete, you can disconnect your device from your PC.
3.2 Synchronizing Information
When you connect your device to the PC using a USB cable, an infrared connection, or
a 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 your device and PC.
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 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), which have different items, and 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 appointments that were on PC2
are now also on PC1.
PC2 All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments that were on PC1
are now also on PC2.
Device All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments from both PC1 and
PC2 are on the device.
32 | Synchronizing Information and Setting Up E-mail Security
Note Outlook e-mail can be synchronized with only one computer.
To start and stop synchronization
•
To synchronize Outlook information and other local information on the PC, connect
your device to the PC using Bluetooth, infrared (IR) or a cable.

think is more cost-effective.
To receive e-mails and synchronize other information instantly
The
Direct Push
technology (Push E-Mail feature) enables you to receive new e-mails
on your device as soon as they arrive in your Inbox on the Exchange Server. With this
feature, items such as contacts, calendar and tasks are also immediately updated onto
your device when these items have been changed or new entries have been added on the
Exchange Server. To make Direct Push work, you need to have a 1XRTT or EVDO dial-up
connection on your device.
The Direct Push feature works for your device, if your private network such as your
corporate network is using Microsoft Exchange Server Service Pack 2 (SP2) with
Exchange ActiveSync, and after your first full synchronization with the Exchange Server.

4.6 Resetting Your Device
Occasionally you may need to reset your device. 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.
To perform a soft reset
•
Use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of your
device. The device restarts, and then displays the Today screen.
Warning! Always turn off your device before performing a soft reset or installing/replacing the
battery.
To perform a hard reset
Press and hold both SOFT KEYS on the device. Keep these keys pressed, and at the
same time, use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of
your device. Press either
Y
to restore to factory default or
