Getting Started Establish a Partnership With a PC Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize the information on your personal computer with the information on your iPAQ Pocket PC. Synchronization compares the data on your Pocket PC with your personal computer and updates both computers with the most recent information. You can synchronize your Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Notes, which require Microsoft Outlook. Also, you can synchronize other items, such as files and Web pages, without Microsoft Outlook. Your first synchronization process automatically begins when you finish using the ActiveSync Setup Wizard. To install ActiveSync: 1. Insert the HP iPAQ Pocket PC Companion CD into your computer. 2. Click Start Here. 3. Install Microsoft Outlook, if necessary. 4. Click Install ActiveSync (version on this CD required as minimum). ✎ When prompted to download the file, select "Run this program from its current location." 1-12 Reference Guide
