IMPORTANT If you lock your Treo, you
must enter the exact password to unlock it.
If you forget the password, you need to
perform a hard reset to resume using your
Treo. Performing a hard reset deletes all
the entries in your Treo. If you use
password protection in PalmDesktop
software, you must remember your
password to restore your info. However, if
you do not use password protection in
PalmDesktop software, you can restore all
previously synchronized info the next time
you sync (see Synchronizing information—
the basics).
