Removing Palm Desktop software
Removing Palm Desktop software also removes HotSync Manager. If you remove this software from your computer, you cannot synchronize your data. So, we highly recommend leaving Palm
Desktop software on your computer.
To remove Palm Desktop software:
1. From the Windows Start menu, choose Programs, Handspring (or Palm) and then Uninstall.
2. Click Yes to uninstall the software.
Security
Your communicator comes with a Security application so that unauthorized users cannot view the entries you wish to protect.
Note: To access the Security application, you must first select either the All or System category from the Applications Launcher.
In Security, you can do the following:
■
Mask or hide entries you define as private. The Mask option displays a gray bar over private records, and the Hide option completely removes (hides) private records. See the section that
begins on page 75 for more information.
■
■
Assign a password to the Security viewing options. Assigning a password requires you to enter a password to view masked or hidden private entries; not assigning a password enables you (or anyone else) to view individual masked private entries by tapping them, and to view all hidden or masked private entries by selecting Show Records in the Security dialog box.
Lock and turn off your communicator so that it does not operate until you enter the correct password.
Assigning a password
You can assign a password to protect your private records and to lock your communicator.
To assign a password:
1. Press Option and then press Menu
2. Tap the Security icon .
3. Tap the Password box.
4. Enter a password.
5. Hold Option and press Return .
to access the Applications Launcher.
