Using HTC Sync
Are you using Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express on your computer? You can use HTC
Sync to synchronize your Outlook contacts and calendar or your Outlook Express contacts
with your phone. Before you do a factory reset or a software (ROM) upgrade of your phone,
you can also use HTC Sync to back up and sync these information from your phone back to
your computer.
Here’s what you’ll need to do to install, set up, and use HTC Sync on your computer:
1. On your computer, go to the HTC support website (www.htc.com/support) to download
and install the latest HTC Sync version.
2. Connect your phone to your computer using the supplied USB cable and set up HTC Sync
to recognize your phone. Follow the steps in “Setting Up HTC Sync to recognize your
phone”.
3. Choose what information to sync between your computer and your phone and how you
want to sync them.
To easily set up synchronization using HTC Sync’s guided wizard, follow the steps in
“Setting up synchronization”.
To choose from more sync options, see “Setting up more sync options”.
4. Sync your computer with your phone automatically or manually. See “Synchronizing your
phone” for details.
Here’s more you can do with HTC Sync:
If you have third-party applications on your computer (not from Android Market), you can
use HTC Sync to install them from your computer to your phone. For more information,
see “Installing apps from your computer to your phone”.
