How to Setup your iPhone to get USI EXCHANGE Calendar, Contacts and Email

You CAN sync Web Bookmarks, Music, audiobooks, Photos, Podcasts, Movies, TV shows, and applications. You only have to set which items are sync-ed one time (in iTunes). After this, every time the phone is connected/wired, it will sync items.

You can set up your phone to sync Outlook/Exchange items wirelessly - but other items are sync-ed via the wire.

1. Get the current version of iTunes.
On your Computer, find and start the iTunes application. Click Help and About. If not version 9.00 (or higher), then upgrade. www.apple.com/itunes/download. This is to update the ITunes software.

2. Make sure phone has current updates (don't assume - since it is new - it is current)
You must have the USB/cable for your phone.
Plug the phone into your computer
Go to the itunes application.
It may tell you at this point that an update is available. (this is to update your phone). Download and Install.

In iTunes, on the Left, look for Devices, and the phone. Click CHECK FOR UPDATES.

Do not disconnect phone while downloading and installing updates.
