    Contacts, Calendar, Tasks
    Data on your Palm-size PC is synchronized with the corresponding Schedule+ or
    Outlook programs on your desktop computer. New items entered on one computer are
    copied to the other.
    Freehand drawing you enter on your Palm-size PC are saved on your desktop computer as
    metafiles (pictures) and added to Outlook. Freehand drawings are not added to Schedule+.
    Inbox
    The Inbox and Outbox folders of your desktop computer or e-mail saved with Outlook
    are synchronized with the Inbox and Outbox folders of your Palm-size PC. If for some
    reason you cannot send or receive e-mail directly from you Palm-size PC, you can
    synchronize e-mail messages and use your desktop computer to send and receive.
    Under initial default settings, only the first 50 lines of each new message are received
    by your Palm-size PC, without any attachments.
    Synchronization transfers messages in your Palm-size PC Outbox folder to your
    desktop computer, which sends the messages.
    For more information about Palm-size PC e-mail operations, see Chapter 4 of this manual.
    Files
    Voice Recorder, Note Taker file, and other files you create are stored on your Palm-size
    PC in a folder named My Documents. You can view these files from your desktop
    computer by double-clicking the icon for your Palm-size PC in the Mobile Devices
    window.
    If file synchronization is enabled (ÒChanging ActiveSync Options SettingsÓ page 85),
    Palm-size PC files are automatically synchronized with files in the folder named  My Documents on your desktop computer. The text  in the
    actual folder name will be the same as your Palm-size PC name. The name of a folder for
    a Palm-size PC named ÒmypcÓ for example, would be mypc My Documents. The
    location of this folder depends on your desktop computerÕs operating system.
    Windows 95/98

    Windows NT
    WINNT\Profiles\\Personal\ My Documents
    Synchronization copies files back and forth between your Palm-size PC and desktop
    computer.
    ¥ Note Taker files are automatically converted to Microsoft Word (.doc) files* when
    they are copied to your desktop computer. Conversely, Microsoft Word files copied
    from your desktop computer to your Palm-size PC are converted to Note Taker
    (.pwi) files. Note, however, that no all data and formatting is converted. For more
    information, see Windows CE Services online help.
    *Microsoft Word97 is the initial default.

    Resolving Synchronization Conflicts
    Synchronization conflicts occur when a previously synchronized item, such as an
    appointment or task, has been modified on both the desktop computer and Palm-size
    PC.  You can set up Mobile Devices for either manual or automatic resolution of

    Palm-size PC or desktop computer, according to a pre-defined resolution method. No
    alert message is displayed.

    window, click the Tools menu, and then click ActiveSync Options. On the dialog that
    appears, click the Advanced button to display the dialog shown below.

    A channel is a Web site or other Web-formatted content that is available for offline
    viewing on your Palm-size PC. Channels help you to keep informed with the latest
    news, stock quotes, movie schedules, and more while on the go. Once you subscribe to
    a channel from your desktop computer, information is updated on your computer, as it
    becomes available. Then when you synchronize, the latest information is automatically
    transferred to your Palm-size PC for viewing.
    Channels and their automatic updates are managed on your desktop computer by
    Internet Explorer 4.0 or later. You must have Internet Explorer 4.0 or later running on
    your desktop computer to subscribe to Channels.
    Microsoft maintains a special Web site to help you get started using Channels. For
    information on getting started with Channels on your Palm-size PC, visit the following
    Web site.

    Data Backup and File Transfer
    In addition to synchronizing data, your can use Windows CE Services to back up and
    restore Palm-size PC data, to copy and move files between your Palm-size PC and
    desktop computer, and to install and remove software on your Palm-size PC.
    Backing Up and Restoring Data
    It is a good idea to use Windows CE Services to regularly back up your Palm-size PC data
    on your desktop computer. If your Palm-size PC data is ever corrupted or lost, you can
    restore the data from the backup file on your desktop computer. A backup file contains all
    the files, Pocket Outlook data, and RAM-based programs that are in Palm-size PC memory.
    To back up Palm-size PC data
    On the Mobile Devices window, click  on the toolbar, or click Tools and then
    Back Up Now. To make settings that tell the Palm-size PC what it should do when
    backing up data, click Tools and then Back Up/Restore to display the Back Up/
    Restore Properties dialog.
    When you restore Palm-size PC data, all data currently in Palm-size PC memory is
    replaced with the last backup you made. If there are files in Palm-size PC memory that
    you do not want replaced, drag them from the Explorer window in Windows CE
    Services to your desktop computer. See ÒCopying FilesÓ on the next page for
    information about how to do this.
    After restoring Palm-size PC data, turn off your Palm-size PC, remove it from the
    cradle, and then reset it. See the separate Hardware Manual for information about
    resetting your Palm-size PC.
