How to setup Langara Email on Android through Exchange
IMPORTANT: By setting up your Android device using Exchange you will be able to sync your calendar, contacts and tasks with your email. However your device's security configuration will change. If you type in an incorrect password on the Lock screen more than 8 times, all your data will be WIPED OUT.
- Tap Settings > Accounts > Add account > Email.
- Type your full email address & type your password, and then tap Next. Your email address should be your Langara email account ending in @langara.ca.
- Select the Exchange option.
- You may receive a message about additional security features. Select OK to continue.
- Once the device verifies the server settings, the Account Options page opens. Accept the defaults or select the options for how you want to receive and send your mail, and then tap Next. (You may need to scroll down to see Next.)
- On the Set up email page you can change the name of your account. When you're finished tap Done.
If you synced your calendar and contacts in step 5 you can go to those apps on your phone to view any items that might be there. If you synced tasks as well, you should see them in the calendar app on your device. It might take a few minutes for everything to sync.
If your device can't connect make sure you typed your email address and password correctly and try again. If you still can't connect try setting it up following the Manual Setup instructions.
