Synchronizing Information
Configuring General Sync Settings
On the Accounts & sync settings screen, do the following:
• Select or clear the Background data check box to control
whether applications and services can transmit data when you
are not working with them directly (that is, when they are
running in the background).
If you clear this option, Gmail stops receiving new mail, Calendar
stops synchronizing events, and so on, until you touch the Refresh
menu item or send an email.
• Select or clear the Auto-sync check box to control whether
changes you make to information on the phone or on the web
are automatically synchronized with each other.
For example, when this option is selected, changes that you make in
Contacts on the phone are automatically made in Google Contacts on
the web.
Changing an Account’s Synchronization Settings
1. On the Accounts & sync settings screen, touch the account
whose synchronization settings you want to change. The data
and synchronization screen opens, displaying a list of the
kinds of information the account can synchronize.
