Use the Mobile Devices view if you are creating an installation that requires a desktop component to be installed along with a mobile device component.

To add an installation for mobile devices to your project:

Right-click Mobile Device Installations and select the type of mobile device that you would like to add. The Windows Mobile Wizard or the Palm OS Wizard opens, enabling you to customize the settings for the devices that you want to target.

When you add an installation for a mobile device to your project, a corresponding component is created and added to all of the features that you selected to associate with the mobile device application.

Microsoft ActiveSync 3.x or later must be installed on the desktop computer in order to provide a desktop-to-device installation. Active Sync 4.x is required for Windows Mobile 5.x devices.
