If you synchronize your organizer data using wireless data synchronization, the organizer data on your computer takes
precedence over the organizer data on your smartphone 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 a current backup file on your computer might allow you to recover smartphone data if
your smartphone 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.
About categories
You can create categories to group your contacts, tasks, and memos. You can also narrow the contacts, tasks, and memos
that appear based on categories.
Category names are not case sensitive. More than one category can apply to a contact, task, or memo. If you use IBM Lotus
Notes
, you can apply more than one category to a task on your BlackBerry smartphone, but only one category synchronizes
with the task in Lotus Notes.
Categories are shared between the contact list, the task list, and the memo list and changes that you make in one
application are made in all applications.
