10 Synchronizing 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 synchronization. The process occurs
in the background and does not interfere with use of your mobile phone. When your
phone is synchronizing, a data synchronization icon will be shown in the notification
bar.
10.1 Managing Your Accounts
You can synchronize 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.

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
on the kind of account and the configuration of the service to which you are
connecting.
5. Configure the account. Depending on the kind of account, you may be asked to
configure what kind of data you want to synchronize to the mobile phone, to name
the account, and for other details. When you are finished, the account is added to

10.2 Customizing Your Account Synchronization
You can configure background data use and synchronization options for all the
applications on your phone. You can also configure what kind of data you synchronize
for each account.
For some accounts, synchronization is bi-directional; changes that you make to the
information on your mobile phone are made to the copy of that information on the
web. Some accounts support only one-way synchronization; the information on your
mobile phone is read-only.
