10  Synchronising Information
Some applications on your mobile phone give you access to the same personal 
information that you can add, view, and edit on your computer. If you add, change, or 
delete your information in any of these applications on the web, the updated 
information also appears on your mobile phone.
This is made possible through over-the-air data synchronisation. The process occurs 
in the background and does not interfere with use of your mobile phone. When your 
phone is synchronising, a data synchronisation icon will be shown in the notification 
bar.

You can synchronise contacts, email, and other information on your mobile phone 
with multiple Google accounts or other kinds of accounts, depending on the 
applications installed on your mobile phone.
For example, you can start by adding your personal Google account, so your 
personal email, contacts, and calendar are always available. You could then add a 
work account, so your work-related emails and work contacts are handy. If you like, 
you may add multiple Google accounts or other accounts.

Settings > Accounts & sync. The screen displays your current 
synchronisation settings and a list of your current accounts.

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

connecting.
5.  Configure the account. Depending on the kind of account, you may be asked to 
configure what kind of data you want to sync to the mobile phone, to name the 
account, and for other details. When you are finished, the account is added to the 
list in the 
Accounts & sync screen.
10.1.2  Removing an Account
You can remove an account, deleting it and all information associated with it from your 
mobile phone, including email, contacts, settings, and so on. You cannot, however, 
remove some accounts, such as the first account you signed into on the mobile 
phone. If you attempt to remove certain accounts, all  personal information associated 
with it will be deleted.
 You can only remove a Gmail account by resetting the phone to factory defaults.

Accounts & sync screen, touch the account to delete.
