Your phone provides the ability to synchronize data from a variety of different sources or sites. These accounts can range from Google, a Corporate Microsoft Exchange Email Server, and other
social sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. Corporate and Google accounts provide the ability to synchronize Calendar events and Contacts. To enable the auto-sync feature:

1. From the Home screen, navigate to 'Settings > Accounts and sync'.
2. Tap 'Auto-sync'. A green check-mark indicates the feature is enabled. This feature enables the synchronization of data between your phone and external sites or servers.

• The three main components are Contacts Email, and Calendar Events. Before these can be synchronized, they must be added to the managed accounts list.
• Background data: allows your phone to use data in the background.

Synchronizing a Google Account

By default, there are no accounts managed by the device. These must be manually added. To manage an existing Google account:

1. From the Home screen, navigate to 'Settings > Accounts and sync'.
2. Tap 'Add account > Google'.

• Any changes or updates to your Gmail account are then automatically updated to your device. To configure the Google management settings:

1. From the Home screen, navigate to 'Settings > Accounts and sync'.

4. Press the back button to return to the previous screen.
