About synchronization conflicts
A synchronization conflict occurs when you change the same email or organizer data item on your BlackBerry® device and in the email application
on your computer.
If you reconcile your email using wireless email reconciliation, on your device, you can set whether the email on your device or the email on
your computer takes precedence when an email reconciliation conflict occurs.
If you synchronize your organizer data using wireless data synchronization, the organizer data on your computer takes precedence over the
organizer data on your device when a data synchronization conflict occurs.
Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you update any software.
Maintaining an up-to-date backup file on your computer might allow you to recover device data if your device is lost, stolen, or corrupted by
an unforeseen issue.
Manage data synchronization conflicts
You can change how conflicts that occur during organizer data synchronization are resolved by turning off wireless data synchronization,
changing conflict resolution options, and synchronizing organizer data using the synchronization tool of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software.
For more information about managing conflicts that occur during organizer data synchronization, see the Help in the BlackBerry Desktop
Software.
