Installing Oracle Calendar Sync for Pocket PC (Windows)

If you have a previous version of Calendar Sync (CorporateSync) installed, it is recommended that you perform a synchronization before you install Calendar Sync 9.0.4 for Pocket PC.

  1. Make sure ActiveSync is installed on your machine.
  2. Run the .exe setup program provided with the distribution package and follow the on-screen InstallShield instructions.
  3. Choose an installation type. If you choose Custom, there is no difference between "This feature will be installed on local hard drive" and "This feature, and all subfeatures, will be installed on local hard drive." Select the conduits you want to install.
  4. Make sure you install Oracle Calendar Sync Helper files when prompted by the application. Your device must be connected to install these files. If not, you can connect a later time and click Start -> Programs -> Oracle Calendar Sync for Pocket PC -> Install Device Files.
  5. Enter your user information, including username, password, calendar server (calendar.uiuc.edu), and node ID.
    Contact your network administrator to locate your node ID.
  6. Follow the rest of the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
  7. Remove your device from its cradle.
  8. If you are upgrading from a previous version, select File -> Delete Partnership.
  9. Return your device to the cradle. The ActiveSync Partnership Wizard will start.
  10. Follow the on-screen instructions to create a new ActiveSync Partnership. Select Oracle Calendar as your plug-in for Calendar, Tasks, and Contacts.
  11. Open Microsoft ActiveSync if it does not open automatically.
  12. Click Sync if synchronization is not automatically initiated. The first time you synchronize, a full synchronization will occur.
