Refer to the next two sections for details about synchronizing with your host PC. Synchronizing via the USB or Serial Port Once the MobilePro is configured for synchronization, the synchronization process automatically occurs each time you connect the MobilePro to your host PC via the USB or serial port. In addition, you can manually initiate the synchronization process using Microsoft ActiveSync on your host PC. Simply open the ActiveSync window, click File, and click Synchronize.
