Synchronisation
Synchronisation allows you to save your calendar, contacts data and Notes on a
remote Internet server (network service) or on a compatible PC. If you have saved
data on the remote Internet server, you can synchronise your phone by starting
the synchronisation from the phone. You can also synchronise the data in your
phone’s contacts, calendar and Notes to correspond to the data on your
compatible PC by starting the synchronisation from the PC. The contact data in
your SIM card will not be synchronised.
Note that answering an incoming call during synchronisation will end the
synchronisation process and you will need to restart it.

Before synchronising from your phone, you may need to do the following:
• Subscribe to a synchronisation service. For more information on availability
and the synchronisation service settings, contact your network operator or
service provider.
