All language subtitles for Mobile Device Configurations - CompTIA A+ 220-1101 - 1

When you turn on a mobile device
for the first time,

there are a number of settings
that are already configured.

For example,

your phone number should be working
and text messaging should be working,

but there are other configuration settings
that may need to be manually

set on your phone.

For example, email is a good example.

Every organization handles email
a little bit differently,

and most organizations
will have a corporate configuration

that needs to be added
to the mobile device.

You may also need to configure access
to a cloud based service

or to a synchronization service,
so that anything you do on your mobile

device will also appear on other devices
that you use throughout the day.

Many organizations
rely on Microsoft's email service

to be able to communicate to others
within the organization,

and they often use the cloud
based service of Microsoft 365.

You can also use Microsoft Outlook
or Microsoft Exchange

if you're running your own exchange
servers.

This is the same
if you're using Microsoft's Hotmail

or Microsoft's
cloud based Outlook.com service.

This is one that requires you
to authenticate to Microsoft 365.

This is often
just a username and a password.

Once you add that authentication, you
then gain access to your email settings

and you're able to enable and disable
different items

that you want to synchronize
with that service.

For example, with Microsoft 365,
you can not only synchronize the email

between your mobile device
and other email systems, you use, but

you can also configure and synchronize
contacts, calendars, reminders, and notes.

This way, if you create a note
on your mobile phone, the note

automatically appears on Microsoft 365
on your desktop, and vice versa.

This is a very similar process
for many different types

of email services,
and once you authenticate, you're able

to send mail, receive mail,
or configure any of these email services.

Another useful configuration setting
may be connectivity to Apple's iCloud.

This is obviously limited
to Apple devices,

and it's integrated into iOS and iPadOS.

To connect to iCloud, you would use
your iCloud username and password

and that provide you access
to configure synchronization options.

There are extensive synchronization
options for iCloud,

and you're able to select and de-select
exactly what information

you'd like to upload to the cloud,

and things you may want to keep local
on your individual device.

This means if you're using macOS,
you can synchronize everything

between your desktop, your laptop,
and your mobile devices.

This is a very simple way to keep
these updated, and it's also a great way

to keep the backups of your system
constantly updated in the cloud.

If you lose your phone,
you can simply log in to a new phone

with your iCloud credentials
and all of this information

will be automatically downloaded
and synchronized with your new device.

As you

can see, there are extensive configuration
settings for iCloud,

but you can still control
exactly what data is synchronized.

For example,
you may want mail to be synchronized

between your mobile device
and other devices.

You may want to have pictures,
music, and videos stored in iCloud

or synchronize calendar settings
or contact details.

As you can imagine, this could be sending
and receiving a large amount of data,

so you also have control over how
that data is sent and over what networks.

For example, you can configure the system
to allow cellular transfers

or only allow transfers over faster 8
to 11 networks.

You can also enable and disable
different network connections, or control

the use of exactly how you download
when you're on a cellular network.

For example, cellular data can be set
to automatically download or not download,

and you can set exactly how much data
can be transferred over

that cellular network.
