Section 1C: Connecting to Your Computer 43
Connecting Computer
Regardless of the desktop sync software you use, the sync application on your Treo is called
ActiveSync.
Synchronizing Wirelessly With the Server
You can set up your Treo to synchronize email and other information wirelessly with Microsoft
®
Exchange Server 2007 or with Exchange Server 2003 upgraded to Service Pack 2 using
Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (see “Setting Up Wireless Synchronization” on page 308). If
you choose this method, synchronization takes place automatically after setup. You do not
need to install the software from the Getting Started CD for Palm Treo 800w smart device.
What Can I Synchronize?
You must have Microsoft
®
Outlook
®
2003 or later installed on your computer to synchronize
the information in these applications:
The information in these applications synchronizes with Outlook by default whether you use
desktop sync software or wireless synchronization with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync.
Note
If you have a Windows XP computer, we recommend that you install the
desktop sync software from the CD even if you synchronize wirelessly with
the server. You need the desktop sync software to synchronize pictures,
videos, music files, and other information directly with your computer.
Tip
If you don’t already have Outlook installed on your computer, insert the CD
into your computer’s CD drive, select
Palm
®
Support Center, and then
select
Microsoft
®
Outlook
®
2007 (60-day trial) to download a trial version of
this software.
