Где в телефоне найти синхронизацию самсунг

Что такое синхронизация

Представим, что на смартфоне есть аккаунт Гугл.

Из статьи «Что такое аккаунт» мы знаем, что аккаунт — это место в интернете, в нашем случае оно принадлежит компании Гугл, и там можно хранить свои данные. Аккаунт — это такая виртуальная коробка, в которую можно складывать информацию.

Одна из возможностей аккаунта Гугл — хранить в себе контакты из телефонной книги смартфона. Делает он это с помощью синхронизации: добавляете в телефонную книгу новый контакт — смартфон копирует его в аккаунт, меняете существующий контакт в смартфоне — изменения появляются в аккаунте.

Синхронизация в нашем примере удобна тем, что:

• Контакты на всех устройствах с этим аккаунтом всегда одинаковы — что-то поменяли на одном, автоматически меняется на всех остальных. 

• Если покупаете новый смартфон, просто добавляете аккаунт и появляются все контакты, который были на старом. Не надо вручную сохранять и передавать контакты, все происходит автоматически. 

Каждый аккаунт умеет синхронизировать только определенную информацию. Некоторые синхронизируют закладки браузера и контакты, некоторые еще и записи в календаре, а какие-то не синхронизируют вообще ничего.

Как выбрать, какую информацию синхронизировать с аккаунтом

Не забудьте добавить аккаунт на устройство, иначе синхронизировать данные будет не с чем.

1
Откройте меню устройства.

2
Выберите пункт «Настройки».

3
Выберите пункт «Облако и учетные записи». Если такого пункта нет, переходите к следующему шагу.

4
Выберите пункт «Учетные записи».

5
Выберите аккаунт, в нашем примере выбираем аккаунт Гугл. Если аккаунтов несколько, выберите нужный. Далее выберите пункт «Синхронизация учетной записи», если он у вас есть.

6
Появится список данных, которые синхронизируются с аккаунтом. Включите синхронизацию тех данных, которые вам нужны. Если чем-то из этого списка не пользуетесь — смело отключайте.

Не получается выбрать данные для синхронизации

1
Вернитесь на один шаг назад до пункта выбора аккаунтов.

2
Нажмите клавишу «Меню» или «Опции» (может выглядеть как три точки в правом верхнем углу).

3
Включите пункт «Автосинхронизация» или «Включить синхронизацию» и попробуйте выбрать данные снова.
