Answers to Commonly Asked Questions

Q:My batteries only lasted for two months. Is there something wrong? Will I lose data in memory when I change the batteries?

A:There is probably nothing wrong with your Organizer. Battery life will vary from user to user. A number of factors will affect battery life, especially how much the Organizer is used. The battery life is rated at 70 hours of continuous use. Assuming an average of one hour per day of continuous use, you would get about two months of battery life.

When you change the main operating batteries, the back-up battery will protect data in memory. Be sure to follow the directions carefully when changing the batteries.

An optional battery case is available, which will extend the life of your operating batteries.

Q:I have an older model of the SHARP Organizer and imported the data into this Organizer. But when I went to the Tel application in my new Organizer, all of my entries looked strange. Some words were split in two and some lines ended too early.

The entries don’t look like this in the other Organizer. What can I do?

A:In certain applications, such as Tel, the number of characters allowed per line is different from that of other Organizer models. This means that the new line characters you entered in the older Organizer will not produce the same formatting in this unit. You will need to edit the relevant entries and reformat them by deleting old new line characters and entering new ones.

Q:I saw the message “There is not enough memory...” after trying to store an entry. What does this mean?

A:You have filled your unit with information. Here are some things you should try in order to free up some memory:

1.Check for old Schedule items. Delete those you no longer need. You can delete all Schedule entries for an entire month using the Calendar menu.

2.Check for completed To Do items. You can delete all completed To Do items using the To Do menu.

3.Check for old Money Tracking transactions. If they have cleared, you should remove them after performing Account Balancing.
