Setting up an account

Creating an account

From the home screen or the list of applications, go to settings:

Select "add an account":

  E.g. if in your web browser you access BlueMind at https://bm.bluemind.loc then you need to enter bm.bluemind.loc.

Once this has been corrected, a connection with the server should be established; Windows Phone performs an initial synchronization and the account is shown in settings:

Selecting which items to synchronize

Once your account is set up correctly, you can customize its name, select which items to synchronize and how often (as items arrive, every 30 mins, 1 hour, etc. or for an extended period e.g. the last 7 days, the last month, etc.):

To force the calendar to synchronize:

• Go to settings > "e-mail+account"·
• Long press the account you want
• Tap "Synchronize" in the menu that appears:
