Setting Up Your Windows Phone

Backing up your Windows Phone

Prior to setting up wireless synchronization on your Windows Phone, we strongly recommend that you backup your device to your computer. Backing up your device requires Microsoft Outlook. If you do not have a copy of Microsoft Outlook on your computer, we strongly recommend installing it prior to setting up wireless synchronization. In addition to allowing you to back up your wireless device data prior to setting up synchronization, Microsoft Outlook is also required to get your IXACT Contact data back onto your wireless device if you choose to remove wireless synchronization.

If your computer operating system is Windows Vista or Windows 7, use Windows Mobile Device Center to back up your Windows Phone data to Microsoft Outlook.

If your computer operating system is Windows XP, use ActiveSync Desktop to back up your Windows Phone data to Microsoft Outlook.

Tip: The default synchronization schedule settings will synchronize immediately when you update items in IXACT Contact, resulting in shorter device battery life and possibly higher data usage. You may wish to change your schedule to synchronize less frequently.
