How to Prolong Battery Life

■ Use the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 with the AC adapter.

Under the following conditions where the power consumption will be
high, please use the AC adapter when:

■ Operating while connected to your computer.

■ Operating with a storage card or with any other optional equip-

ment.

■ In addition,

■ Select the short power-off time in the setting menu to shorten the

time the unit will remain on if not used (see "Customize Your
Toshiba Pocket PC" on page 52).

■ Turn off the screen light.

■ Set the screen brightness to power saving mode and shortening

the light turn-off time (see "Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC"
on page 52).

■ Use your unit with an ambient temperature between 59°F and

77°F (15°C and 25°C). This temperature range is the most effec­tive for the battery.

■ When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 in high or low

temperature environments, the operable time is shortened due to
the decrease of the battery capacity.

■ You can save power if the wireless communication module is off.

Battery Life

The removable battery has a limited life. Repeated charging/discharging
of the battery gradually decreases operable time. When the operable time
has been diminished, it is time to replace the removable battery with a
new one.

■ Do not leave the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 in a place of high or

low temperature. It may shorten battery life.

If you have not used the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805
for several days, its battery charge level reading may be
inaccurate. Fully recharge the battery before using.

30

Chapter 2: Basic Skills

Battery Charge Level and Stored Data Protection

completely discharged, the memory data stored in the Toshiba Pocket PC
e800/e805 could be lost.

When the low battery status icon or the alarm message appears, immedi­ately connect the AC adapter to the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 and
charge the battery.

■ The removable battery gradually discharges even if the device is not

being used. When the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 is left for a long
time, the removable battery of the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 may
completely discharge.

■ It is recommended to save the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805’s mem-

ory data to your computer or to a storage card.

■ The manufacturer is not responsible for data change or clearance due

to battery discharge.

Tips for getting good recognition:

• Write neatly.

• Write on the lines and draw descenders below the line. Write the cross
of the “t” and apostrophes below the top line so that they are not con­fused with the word above. Write periods and commas above the line.

• For better recognition, try increasing the zoom level to 300% using the
Tools menu.

• Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words
so that the device can easily tell where words begin and end.

• Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as
accents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.

• If you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to an
“8”) after you attempt to recognize the word, the writing you add will
not be included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.

Drawing on the Screen

You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the screen.
The difference between writing and drawing on the screen is how you
select items and how they can be edited. For example, selected drawings
can be resized, while writing cannot.

48

Chapter 2: Basic Skills

To create a drawing:

• Cross three ruled lines on your first stroke. A drawing box appears.

Subsequent strokes in or touching the drawing box become part of the
drawing. Drawings that do not cross three ruled lines will be treated as

writing.

The drawing box indicates
the boundaries of the
drawing.

NOTE

You may want to change the zoom level so that you can
more easily work on or view your drawing. Tap Tools and
then a zoom level.

To select a drawing:

If you want to edit or format a drawing, you must select it first.

Microsoft ActiveSync

Using ActiveSync, you can synchronize information between your device
and PC or server. Synchronization compares the data on your device with
your PC and updates both computers with the most recent information.
For example:

• Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your device
with Microsoft Outlook data on your PC.

• Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
device and desktop computer.

Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.

By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchro­nize all types of information. Use ActiveSync options to
turn synchronization on and off for specific information
types.

With ActiveSync, you can also:

• Change synchronization settings and synchronization schedule.

• Copy files between your device and PC.

• Back up and restore device information.

• Add and remove programs on your device.

Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your PC from the
Toshiba Pocket PC Companion CD. For more information on installing
ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installed on
your device.

After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you con­nect your Pocket PC to your PC, set up a partnership so you can synchro­nize information between your device and your desktop computer, and
customize your synchronization settings. Your first synchronization pro­cess will automatically begin when you finish using the wizard.

After your first synchronization, take a look at Calendar, Contacts, and
Tasks on your device. You’ll notice that information you’ve stored in
Microsoft Outlook on your PC has been copied to your device, and you
didn’t have to type a word. Disconnect your device from your PC and
you’re ready to go!

Managing Email Messages and Folders

Each email account has its own folder hierarchy with five default folders:
Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent Items. The messages you
receive and send through the mail account are stored in these folders.
You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted
Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the device.
The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the
Inbox options you have chosen. In the message list, tap Tools and then
Options. On the Message tab, select your options.

73

Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 User’s Guide

If you want to organize messages into additional folders, tap Tools, and
then Manage Folders to create new folders. To move a message to
another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message and then tap

Move on the pop-up menu.

Folder behavior with a direct connection to an email server

The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using
ActiveSync, POP3, or IMAP4.

• If you use ActiveSync, email messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook
will automatically be synchronized with your device. You can select to
synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync.
The folders you create and the messages you move will then be mir­rored on the server. For example, if you move two messages from the
Inbox folder to a folder named Family, and you have designated Fam­ily for synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder
and copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the mes­sages while away from your PC.

• If you use POP3 and you move email messages to a folder you cre­ated, the link is broken between the messages on the device and their
copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server
will see that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and
delete them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate
copies of a message, but it also means that you will no longer have
access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere
except the device.

• If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the email messages you
move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available
to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your
device or PC. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you
connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete fold­ers when connected.
