ACTIVESYNC
Introduction
Requirement - ActiveSync (version 4.5 or higher for Windows XP desktop/laptop com-
puters) must be resident on the host (desktop/laptop) computer. Windows Mobile
Device Center (version 6.1 or higher) is required for a Windows Vista/Windows 7/Win-
dows 8 desktop/laptop computer. ActiveSync and Windows Mobile Device Center for
the PC is available from the Microsoft website. Follow their instructions to locate, down-
load and install ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center on your desktop com-
puter.
Note:
For readability in this section, ActiveSync will be used in instructions and explanations. If
you have a Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 operating system on your desktop/
laptop, replace ActiveSync with Windows Mobile Device Center.
Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize information on your desktop com-
puter with the Thor VM2 and vice versa. Synchronization compares the data on your
mobile device with your desktop computer and updates both with the most recent data.
For example, you can:
•
Back up and restore your device data.
•
Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and desktop computer.
•
Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For
example, you can synchronize continually while connected to your desktop computer
or only when you choose the synchronize command.
By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use
ActiveSync Options to specify the types of information you want to synchronize. The
synchronization process makes the data (in the information types you select) identical
on both your desktop computer and your device.
When installation of ActiveSync is complete on your desktop computer, the ActiveSync
Setup Wizard begins and starts the following processes:
•
connect your device to your desktop computer,
•
set up a partnership so you can synchronize information between your device and
your desktop computer, and
•
customize your synchronization settings.
