10.2 Customizing Your Account Synchronization
You can configure background data use and synchronization options for all the applications on
your phone. You can also configure what kind of data you synchronize for each account.
Some applications, such as

For some accounts, synchronizing is two-directional; changes that you make to the information on
your mobile phone are made to the copy of that information on the web. Some accounts support
