Exchange ActiveSync is a Microsoft Exchange synchronization protocol that's optimized to work together with high-latency and low-bandwidth networks. The protocol, based on HTTP and XML, lets mobile phones access an organization's information on a server that's running Microsoft Exchange.
ActiveSync is a client protocol that lets users synchronize their Exchange mailbox with a mobile device. By default, ActiveSync is enabled on new user mailboxes. Disabling ActiveSync on a mailbox prevents the user from synchronizing their mailbox with a mobile device (by using ActiveSync).
- When Sync settings is turned on, Windows syncs the settings you choose across all your Windows 10 devices that you've signed in to with your Microsoft account. Note You can also sync your settings for a work or school account if it’s allowed by your organization.

- Select a mailbox, hold down the Shift key, and select another mailbox that's farther down in the list.
- Hold down the CTRL key as you select each mailbox.
After you select multiple mailboxes of the same type, the title of the details pane changes to Bulk Edit. - In the details pane, scroll down to Exchange ActiveSync, click Enable or Disable, and then click OK in the warning message that appears.
Use the Exchange Management Shell to enable or disable Exchange ActiveSync access to multiple mailboxes
You can use the Get-Mailbox, Get-User or Get-Content cmdlets to identify the mailboxes that you want to modify. For example:
- Use the OrganizationalUnit parameter to filter the mailboxes by organizational unit (OU).
- Use the Filter parameter to create OPATH filters that identify the mailboxes. For more information, see Filterable Properties for the -Filter Parameter.
- Use a text file to specify the mailboxes. The text file contains one mailbox (email address, name, or other unique identifier) on each line like this:
This example disables ActiveSync access to all user mailboxes in the North AmericaFinance OU.
This example disables ActiveSync access to all user mailboxes in the Engineering department in Washington state.
This example uses the text file C:My DocumentsAccounts.txt to disable ActiveSync access to the specified mailboxes.
For detailed syntax and parameter information, see Get-Mailbox and Get-User.

Microsoft Activesync App
Overview[edit]
![Microsoft Microsoft](https://static.filehorse.com/screenshots/drivers/microsoft-activesync-screenshot-01t.png)
ActiveSync allows a mobile device to be synchronized with either a desktop PC or a server running a compatible software product including Microsoft Exchange Server, Axigen, Horde, IceWarp Server, Kerio Connect, Kolab, MDaemon, Novell GroupWise, Tine 2.0, Scalix, Zarafa/Kopano via Z-push, or Zimbra.
On desktops, ActiveSync synchronizes emails, calendar, contacts and tasks with Microsoft Outlook, along with Internet bookmarks and files. ActiveSync does not support all features of Outlook. For instance, contacts grouped into subfolders are not transferred. Only the contacts which are not in a subfolder are synchronized. In case of Exchange Server, only emails, calendar, contacts and tasks may be synchronized.

ActiveSync also provides for the manual transfer of files to a mobile device, along with limited backup functionality, and the ability to install and uninstall mobile device applications.
Supported mobile devices include PDAs or smartphones running Windows Mobile, Windows CE,[1] or BlackBerry 10 or iPhone but not the older BlackBerry versions, Palm OS and Symbian platforms. Windows Phone 7 doesn't support desktop ActiveSync synchronization.[2]
Starting with Windows Vista, ActiveSync has been replaced with the Windows Mobile Device Center, which is included as part of the operating system.[3]
