Introduction to ActiveSync and the Windows Mobile Device Center Install and set up the synchronization program Synchronizing Chapter 6
.Introduction to ActiveSync and the Windows Mobile Device Center 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 on which you also have synchronization software installed, data will be shared between your device and PC according to your preferences.
Install and set up the synchronization program If your PC is running Windows Vista, your synchronization settings will be managed through the Windows Mobile Device Center. If your PC is running Windows XP or earlier synchronization will be managed by ActiveSync. ActiveSync You can either install the application from your Windows Mobile Getting Started CD or by downloading from:http://www.microsoft.com/ windowsmobile/activesync. Follow the on-screen instructions.
Once the software has been installed on your PC and the USB cable is connected between your PC and the phone, the PC will detect the attachment of the mobile device. ActiveSync will attempt to make a connection to the device automatically. Once the connection is made, the Pocket PC Sync Setup Wizard will start.
Desktop Firewall Applications Firewall applications are designed to block network traffic and secure the desktop PC from incoming network connections. Since ActiveSync utilizes TCP ports for data transfer with Windows Mobile powered devices, you may need to explicitly allow this traffic to be un-blocked by certain Firewall applications. To do so, you must add ActiveSync application processes into the Firewall programs exception list. Please refer to the documentation provided with your specific firewall.
