Synchronization and backup
With
PC Suite for P900
installed in your PC, your P900 can
synchronize with the following PC applications, also called
Personal Information Managers (PIMs):
Lotus® Organizer® 5 & 6
Lotus® Notes® 5.0, 6
Microsoft® Outlook® 98, 2000, 2002
Synchronization is divided into local and remote. Local
synchronization is performed directly to a connected PC, while
remote synchronization is done over the air with a remote
server, for example, on a corporate network.
The manual describes the easiest way to perform the tasks, but
you can also perform most of them by selecting
Start > Programs >
Sony Ericsson > P900
on the PC and then select the desired
command.
Refer to the online help find in
Help
in the menu bar in the PC
software to get more information about synchronization and
backup.
Note If you have imported SIM phone book entries into
Contacts
in your P900, these entries will not be synchronized with the
corresponding entries in your PC when synchronizing your
P900 and PC. You will instead get duplicates on your P900.
Local synchronization
Local synchronization is performed with either cable, infrared
or Bluetooth wireless technology. The functionality is the same.
Email, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Jotter notes (only text)
can be synchronized locally.
Local synchronization settings
Local synchronization is initiated from the PC and all settings
are made in the P900 PC software (included on the
PC Suite for
P900
CD).
