5.4 Backing Up Files
You can back up files to your PC using ActiveSync, or copy files to a storage card you
insert into your device. Your device has an expansion slot compatible with a range of
mini secure digital (MicroSD).
Using ActiveSync, you can copy or move information from the PC to the device and
vice versa. Changes you make to the information on one computer will not affect the
information on the other computer. If you want to automatically update information on
both your device and PC, synchronize the information instead. For more information
about copying and synchronizing files, see ActiveSync Help on your PC.
To copy files to a storage card
1. Push the storage card into the storage card slot until it clicks into place. The
card is secure when it does not protrude from the base.
2. Tap Start > Programs > File Explorer and navigate to the appropriate folder.
3. Tap and hold the file you want to copy, and tap Copy.
4. Tap the folder list (labeled My Documents by default) and tap Storage Card.
5. Tap Menu > Edit > Paste.
To copy a file using ActiveSync
Copying a file may results in separate versions of a file on your device and PC.
Because the files are not synchronized, changes made to one file will not affect the
other.
1. Connect your device to your PC.
2. In ActiveSync, click Explore, which opens the Mobile Device folder for your
device.
3. In the Mobile Device folder, go to the file that you want to copy on your device or
PC.
4. Do one of the following actions:
• To copy the file to your device, right-click the file, and click Copy. Right-click
the desired folder under Mobile Device, and click Paste.
• To copy the file to your PC, right-click the file and click Copy. Right-click the
desired folder on your PC, and click Paste.
To save files on a storage card automatically
In the Word Mobile, Excel Mobile, and Notes programs, you may find it helpful to
save all new documents, notes, and workbooks directly on a storage card.
1. From the program file list, tap Menu > Options.
2. With a storage card inserted in the device, in the Save to box, tap the
appropriate storage card to automatically save new items on the storage card.
3. Tap OK.
Note In the file or note list, a storage card symbol is displayed next to the names
of files saved on a storage card.
