Chapter 6. Syncing Your Day in the Life

In This Chapter

  • Synchronizing e-mail, calendars, contacts, and bookmarks

  • Using MobileMe to sync over the Internet

  • Setting up e-mail accounts on your iPod touch

Your iPod touch can take care of all aspects of your digital life: It can send and receive e-mail, keep track of your calendar and notes, sort your contacts, and save bookmarks to all your favorite Web sites as you browse them.

Syncing Your Day in the Life

If you're a road warrior, you may want to fill up your iPod touch with your personal information. You can then go out into the world, conquer it, and bring back new or edited contacts, new events, and new Web site bookmarks, which you can then synchronize back with your computer.

Apps to Organize Your Life

Where do I start? First off, your iPod touch has no problem sending and receiving e-mail using the Mail application (as I describe in Chapter 11). It also offers the Contacts app to store contact info, the Calendar app to store events (see Chapter 13), the Notes app to take notes (see Chapter 2), and the Safari app to surf the Web with your bookmarks (see Chapter 10). With a little help from these apps, you'll soon have your schedule whipped into such shape that it will be humming along like a finely tuned German automobile.

Note

Keep in mind that you can use iTunes to synchronize your iPod touch apps with the calendars, contacts, notes, e-mail accounts, and bookmarks ...
