Synchronization and backup The Sony Ericsson PC Suite lets you synchronize your phone with common computer applications (local synchronization) and make backups of data. Without using the Sony Ericsson PC Suite you can synchronize your phone over a mobile network with a remote server (remote synchronization). Tip For contacts, calendar entries and tasks there is another backup possibility - to copy these to and from the Media memory. See the respective section in this User guide for more information. Local synchronization Local synchronization is between your phone and a connected computer. Email, contacts, calendar events, tasks, notes (text only), and browser bookmarks can be synchronized this way. Note: The Sony Ericsson PC Suite must be installed on the computer and the chosen connection method must have been set up in the phone, see Connections on page 79. To synchronize, connect your phone to the computer using a USB, Bluetooth or infrared connection. Bluetooth Infrared USB cable Note: If you are using a USB connection, select the Normal mode setting.
