Registering Your Device
Until a device is registered, the NotifyLink application will not synchronize Email or PIM. The registration process identifies you as a valid user on the NotifyLink Enterprise Server and allows you to begin using NotifyLink to synchronize the data between your device and your computer. Registering the device consists of:
• Entering your Email Address and an Authentication Password.
• Performing an initial PIM synchronization.
Email Address – is the address that will have its mail synchronized with the device.
Authentication Password – an eight-character, case-sensitive password assigned by the administrator from the NotifyLink Enterprise Server. To begin it is usually a default password; however, the administrator may direct you to change it for security purposes. See Changing Your Authentication Password.
Begin the Registration:
1. Select Start > Programs (PPC) > NotifyLink Preferences > Registration.

2. Type your Email Address and Authentication Password as they appear on the server.
3. Select Register.
4. Answer Yes to check for registration messages. A welcome message is sent to the device Inbox and you’ll be prompted to perform the initial synchronization for the device.
Perform the Initial Sync:
NOTE: An initial sync will remove all existing PIM items on the device and replace them with items from the server. If there is PIM data on the device that is not on the server, you should back it up prior to carrying out this step.
5. Place a check in the box beside any/all of the items to be synchronized:
□ Calendar
□ Contacts
□ Tasks
6. Select Send.
