Accounts & sync settings

Use the Accounts & Sync settings to add, remove, and manage your Google

Accounts and other accounts. You also use these settings to control how and

whether applications send, receive, and sync data on their own schedules, and

whether applications can synchronize user data automatically.

Gmail, Calendar, and other applications may also have their own settings to control

how they synchronize data; see the documentation for those applications for

details.

Accounts & sync

settings screen

Background data Check to permit applications to synchronize data in the

background, whether or not you are actively working in them. Unchecking this

setting can save battery power and lowers (but does not eliminate) data use.

Auto-sync Check to permit applications to synchronize data on their own

schedule. If you uncheck this setting, you must touch an account in the list on this

screen and touch to synchronize data for that account. Synchronizing data

automatically is disabled if Background data is unchecked. In that case, Auto-

sync is dimmed.

Manage accounts The rest of this screen lists the Google Accounts and other

accounts you’ve added to the tablet. Adding accounts is described in “Accounts”

on page 99.

If you touch an account in this screen, its account screen opens.

Account screen This screen contains different options, depending on the kind of account.

For each Google Account, it lists the kinds of data you can synchronize to the

tablet, with checkboxes so you can turn synchronizing on and off for each kind of

data. You can also touch the Synchronize button at the top-right of the Application

bar to synchronize data now. Touch Remove account to remove the account along

with all its data (contacts, mail, settings, and so on). See “Privacy settings” on

page 280.
