Locking your handheld
You can also lock your handheld so that you need to enter your
password to operate it.
Important:
If you lock your handheld, you must enter the exact
password to re-activate your handheld. If you forget
the password, you must perform a hard reset to resume
using your handheld. Performing a hard reset deletes
all the records in your handheld; however, you can
restore all synchronized data at the next HotSync
operation. See “Resetting your handheld” in Appendix
A for more information.
To lock your handheld with a password:
1. Perform a HotSync operation to synchronize the data between
your handheld and your computer. See “Exchanging and
updating data: HotSync operations” in Chapter 4 for
information on synchronizing your data.
2. Assign a password.
3. Tap Lock & Turn Off.
4. Tap Off & Lock.
5. To start your handheld, turn it on and then enter the password.
