Synchronising your Windows Phone

If you want to move media or sync stuff between your computer and your Windows Phone, there's always at least one good way to do it. What you'll use depends on a few things:


The kind of computer you have
What you're trying to do
Your favourite way to do something (if there's more than one option)
Get advice from the wizard
To help you quickly figure out what it is you need, we've put together a wizard that can walk you through your choices. With just a few clicks, you'll pick what you want to sync and get right to the best way to make it happen. (The wizard is available in US English only.)


If you can't use the wizard...
Have a look at Which apps can I use to sync with my computer? if you just want to see which apps work on which computer. And if you're trying to figure out how to sync your contacts, calendar and emails, see the list of topics following this table, which have detailed instructions.
