Synchronizing remotely
Note
M-Business Client has a recoverable synchronization feature. If your remote (wireless) synchronization is
interrupted, because you lose your wireless connection, for example, M-Business Client automatically makes
several attempts to complete the synchronization, picking up where it left off. This process is automatic; no
error message is displayed and you do not need to do take any action.
If you do see an error message indicating that your synchronization failed to complete, it means that M-
Business Client was unable to recover your synchronization and you have to initiate a new synchronization,
which must start over from the beginning.
Using a modem or other networking device to synchronize
On your device, you can synchronize with M-Business Server either from within M-Business Client or from
within M-Business Connect.
The exact steps involved in configuring a modem (or other networking device) to work with M-Business
Connect depend on your device and the modem you use.
