SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION
Some apps (for example, Gmail and Calendar) on your Cat® S75 provide access to the same information that
you can add, view and edit on other devices. If you add, change or delete information in any of these apps on
other devices, the updated information will also appear on your device.
This is made possible through over-the-air data synchronization. The process occurs in the background and
does not interfere with your device. When your device is synchronizing, a data synchronization icon will be
shown in the notifi cation bar.
MANAGING YOUR ACCOUNTS
You can synchronize contacts, email and other information on your device with multiple Google Accounts or other
accounts, depending on the apps you have installed.
For example, adding a personal Google Account means your personal email, contacts, and calendar entries are always
available. You can also add a work account, so your work-related emails, contacts and calendar entries are kept separate.
ADDING AN ACCOUNT
• Swipe up from the Home Screen > Settings.
• Tap Passwords & Accounts > Add account.
• Tap the account type to add.
Follow the on-screen instructions to enter the required information about your account. Most accounts require a
username and password, but the details depend on the kind of account and the confi guration of the service to which you
are connecting to. When you are fi nished, your account will be added to the list in the Accounts settings screen.
NOTE: IN SOME CASES, ACCOUNT DETAILS MAY NEED TO BE OBTAINED FROM YOUR NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR SUPPORT. FOR
EXAMPLE, YOU MAY NEED TO KNOW THE ACCOUNT’S DOMAIN OR SERVER ADDRESS.
REMOVING AN ACCOUNT
An account and all information associated with it can be removed from your device, including email, contacts, settings,
etc. Some accounts, however, cannot be removed, such as the fi rst account you signed into on your device. If you attempt
to remove certain accounts, be aware that all personal information associated with it will be deleted.
• On the Password & Accounts settings screen, tap the account to delete.
• Tap Remove Account, then again when prompted to confi rm.
CUSTOMIZING YOUR ACCOUNT SYNCHRONIZATION
Background data use and synchronization options can be confi gured for all the applications on your device. You can
also confi gure the kind of data synchronized for each account. Some applications, such as Contacts and Gmail, can
synchronize data from multiple applications.
Synchronizing is two-directional for some accounts and changes made to the information on your device are made to the
copy of that information on the web. Some accounts support only one-way synchronization and the information on your
device is read-only.
