2.7. PIM Synchronization setting
Overview
The PIM Synchronization Application is used to synchronize the Personal Information Manager
(PIM) database of this computer with the PIM database of a remote Bluetooth device.
The supported PIMs are:
Microsoft Outlook
Microsoft Outlook Express
Lotus Notes.
The supported data types are:
Business cards
Calendar items
Email (with or without attachments)
Notes.
Configure PIM Synchronization
The Bluetooth Configuration Panel > Client Applications > PIM Synchronization > General tab
provides options to configure:
The application name- to change it, highlight the existing name and enter the new name.
Enable or disable secure connection. To enable secure connection, place a checkmark in the
box.
The PIM items to be synchronized and the PIM on this computer with which those items should
be synced.
NOTE: If synchronization is enabled for a specific item type, but is not enabled for that item type
on the remote device, synchronization WILL NOT take place for that item.
The data item types which can be synchronized are:
 Business cards
 Calendar items
 Email (with or without attachments-see below)
 Notes
Possible synchronization options for each of these data item types include:
Do Not Synchronize-this item type will not be synchronized
Synchronize Microsoft Outlook-this item type will be synced with its matching entry in Microsoft
Outlook, regardless of the PIM that contains this entry on the remote device. If a matching Outlook
entry does not exist, it will be created
Synchronize Outlook-Express-this item type will be synced with its matching entry in Express,
regardless of the PIM that contains this entry on the remote device. If a matching Express entry
does not exist, it will be created
Synchronize Lotus Notes-this item type will be synced with its matching entry in Lotus Notes,
regardless of the PIM that contains this entry on the remote device. If a matching Notes entry
does not exist, it will be created.
NOTE: All choices are not available for all items. For example, Notes items can only be
synchronized in Microsoft Outlook, therefore Lotus Notes and Outlook Express do not
appear as options in the "Notes" item shortcut menu.
Personal Information Managers that are not installed on this computer do not appear as
options in the shortcut menus.
Email attachments. The only option is include or do not include attachments with email that is sent
or received on this computer using this service.
