ActiveSync 4.5 will not work for Windows Vista and above for that we need to install Windows Mobile Device Center.

The Windows Mobile Device Center enables you to set up new partnerships, synchronize content and manage music, pictures and video with Windows Mobile powered devices (Windows Mobile 2003 or later). The Windows Mobile Device Center combines an efficient business-data synchronization platform with a compelling user experience. The Windows Mobile Device Center helps you to quickly set up new partnerships, synchronize business-critical information such as e-mail, contacts and calendar appointments, easily manage your synchronization settings, and transfer business documents between your device and PC

Step 1: Connect your phone

Grab your phone and the USB cable that came with it. If you need some additional help setting up and using your new phone, see Windows Phone 6.5 basics for more information.

Step 2: Download the sync software for your computer

Choose the sync software for your computer's operating system, which you can download here:

  • If you have Windows Vista or Windows 7, your sync settings will be managed through Windows Mobile Device Center.

  • If you have Windows XP SP3, your sync settings will be managed through ActiveSync. Download ActiveSync 4.5 for here.

Step 3: Get Microsoft Office Outlook

Download: ASP.NET MVC 3

ASP.NET MVC 3 is a framework for developing highly testable and maintainable Web applications by leveraging the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern. The framework encourages developers to maintain a clear separation of concerns among the responsibilities of the application – the UI logic using the view, user-input handling using the controller, and the domain logic using the model. ASP.NET MVC applications are easily testable using techniques such as test-driven development (TDD). The installation package includes templates and tools for Visual Studio 2010 to increase productivity when writing ASP.NET MVC applications. For example, the Add View dialog box takes advantage of customizable code generation (T4) templates to generate a view based on a model object. The default project template allows the developer to automatically hook up a unit-test project that is associated with the ASP.NET MVC application. Because the ASP.NET MVC framework is built on ASP.NET 4, developers can take advantage of existing ASP.NET features like authentication and authorization, profile settings, localization, and so on. Go through this help to get started MVC 3.

MVC stands for model-view-controller. MVC is a pattern for developing applications that are well architected and easy to maintain. MVC-based applications contain:

  • Controllers: Classes that handle incoming requests to the application, retrieve model data, and then specify view templates that return a response to the client.
  • Models: Classes that represent the data of the application and that use validation logic to enforce business rules for that data.
  • Views: Template files that your application uses to dynamically generate HTML responses.
