Communication
Your unit may offer multiple methods of communication with other
devices as described below. Not all the features apply to every unit,
as some of the features are offered as options. If the feature
described does not apply to your unit, please disregard that section.
Connecting to a PC
Connecting your unit to a PC allows you to copy files, synchronize
information, send and receive e-mail and install applications on your
unit. Connectivity software is pre-installed on your handheld unit.
Windows XP SP3 or earlier: Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 or
greater is required. (Microsoft Office Outlook 2000 and older is
not supported by ActiveSync 4.5.) NOTE: If you have an
earlier version of ActiveSync installed on your PC, you need to
upgrade to version 4.5 prior to connecting to your unit. Go to
www.microsoft.com and search for ActiveSync.
Windows Vista & Windows 7: Microsoft Windows Mobile
Device Center may be pre-installed on your PC. If it is not on
your PC, go to www.microsoft.com and search for Windows
Mobile Device Center to install it. NOTE: It does not recognize
the serial port. You must connect by either USB or Bluetooth.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect your unit to the USB port on the
PC until after you install connectivity software to your PC. If you
prematurely connect the unit to your PC, your PC USB drivers may
get into a confused state and will not connect. If you suspect that
something like this has happened, uninstall the connectivity
software on your PC, reboot, and reinstall.
After the connectivity software is installed on the PC, connect the
unit to the PC:
1. Connect the USB end of the synchronization cable to the PC.
2. Turn on your unit.
3. Connect the mini-USB end of the cable to your unit.
Troubleshooting connection problems
1. Confirm the unit is configured to communicate with the PC.
