Configure Exchange for iPhone 3G
The iPhone is a mobile device, music player and handheld tool that allows you to also access your email and the Internet using your phone's mobile network or any available Wi-Fi network. The iPhone 3G also supports Microsoft Exchange, a server that sends information instantly to your phone and back to the main business server. With Microsoft Exchange on the iPhone, you can securely access your corporate contacts, mail and calendars and makes changes, which pushes the updated information back to the server.
Instructions
1. Press the "Home" button on your phone. Slide your finger across the screen and tap the "Settings" button, followed by tapping the "Mail, Contacts, Calenders" bar on your screen. Tap the "Add Mail Account..." tab, and tap the "Microsoft Exchange" button.
2. Type in your corporate email address. Type in your username, password, and a description of your account, followed by tapping the "Next" button at the top of the screen on the right side. The Autodiscover feature will try to locate your certificate. If it cannot be found, a message will appear asking if you wish to continue. Tap the "Continue" button to proceed. Tap the "Server" field and enter your server information, then tap "Next," located in the upper-right corner of the screen.
3. Sync your phone with the server. Slide your finger to the right for the "Mail, Contacts and Calendar" tab to sync with the corporate server, followed by tapping "Done" at the top of the screen. Enter your password if a dialog box appears with the request by tapping the "Continue" button and typing in the password, followed by tapping "Next" at the top of your screen.
4. Configure the push schedule. Push can send information from your phone to the server and back every 15 or 30 minutes, hourly or manually. The frequency of push increases the drain on your phone's battery. Customize the frequency by pressing the "Home" button, followed by tapping "Settings" and "Mail, Contacts, Calenders" on the screen. Tap the "Fetch New Data" tab and slide your finger across the "Push" tab to turn it on, and tap the tab of "Every 15 Minutes" if you wish to fetch data from the server frequently. Press the "Home" button when finished.
