Important: To prevent synchronization problems, select
Synchronize with Microsoft Mobile Information Server and/or this desktop computer only if you are certain that your company is running Microsoft Mobile Information Server 2002 or later, and you know the server name. Otherwise, select
Synchronize with this desktop computer instead. For more information, contact your network administrator or service provider.
After the first synchronization, take a look at Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks on your Pocket PC Phone. You will notice that your information has been copied to the phone. Disconnect the phone from the desktop computer and you are ready to go!

The Basics
Resetting the Pocket PC Phone
You can perform a soft reset or a full reset – a soft reset restarts your Pocket PC Phone and a full reset switches the battery off. The result of a soft reset is that some data may be lost in programs that are open, however, the result of cutting power (a full reset) is to wipe out all the data and new programs you have added, and return the device to its factory setting – i.e. it will only have the software that was present when you bought it.
It is important not to think about a full reset restarting, shutting down or even improperly switching off your desktop, but rather like a complete crash requiring you to have to wipe out your OS. The importance of backing up data to an SD card or your computer cannot be stressed enough - in the event you have to perform a full reset your data will not be lost.
Performing a Soft Reset
If your Pocket PC Phone responds slowly, stops responding or freezes, try a soft reset. A soft reset causes the Pocket PC Phone to restart and re-adjust memory allocation. Unsaved data in open windows may be lost.
To perform a soft reset:
1. Unscrew the stylus.
The Basics
2.Press the Reset button in the hole with the end of the top-half of your stylus.
Perform a Full Reset
Note: A full device reset clears memory, deletes all data and restores the Pocket PC Phone to its default settings. Programs installed at the factory remain, while data you have created and programs you have installed are erased.
