First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method of synchronizing a mobile device, comprising:
- utilizing a computer processor to schedule a synchronization operation according to a synchronization schedule that indicates different frequencies with which synchronization operations are to be performed during a plurality of different statuses of the mobile device; and
utilizing the computer processor to perform the scheduled synchronization operation.

Abstract
Data is synchronized between a mobile device and a computing device over a wireless link. Synchronization operations are scheduled according to a synchronization schedule that is based on a current time of day. In one embodiment, the day can be divided into different time periods by the user. The user can also specify the frequency with which synchronization operations are to be performed during each specified period.
