Your new Samsung
Galaxy S5 smartphone can connect to Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync server and
sync your email, calendar, contacts, tasks, and in some cases, even SMS
messages. You, however, need to know the server settings for the sync to be
successful and that you can download your messages to your phone.
This post will guide
you through properly setting up your Microsoft Exchange email:
Step 1: From the Home screen,
tap the Apps icon and then Settings.
Step 3: Tap Add Account.
Step 4: One the next screen
find and tap Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync.
Step 5: Now enter your
Exchange email address and your password. Then, tap Manual setup on the bottom
of the screen.
Step 6: As I mentioned
earlier, you must know your server settings because in this screen, you will
enter them. The information you need are: email address, password,
domain/username, and Exchange server.
Step 7: On the next screen,
you will be prompted with the Activation information. Read it and tap OK.
Step 8: Now, you need to
configure your account and set Period to sync email, Sync schedule, Peak
schedule, Emails retrieval size, and Period to sync Calendar. You may also want
to check the option Notify me when email arrives.
Step 9: Lastly, you need to
give your account recognizable name in case you have more than one account on
your phone, then tap Done when finished.
All details of your
Exchange account can be edited anytime, so you don't have to worry if you've
entered incorrect information. After all, you would know if the information you
provided weren't correct because the Galaxy S5 can't sync with Microsoft Exchange
ActiveSync server.
I hope this tutorial
helped you. Thanks for reading.
