    Troubleshooting: Security
    I forget my smartphone password If you forget your BlackBerry® smartphone password, it can't be recovered. If your smartphone uses a BlackBerry® EnterpriseServer, your administrator might be able to reset your password without deleting your smartphone data. Otherwise, the only way you can reset your password without knowing your current password is to delete all your smartphone data. You can dothis by exceeding the number of allowed password attempts.
    If your email account uses a BlackBerry Enterprise Server, depending on the options that your administrator sets, when youdelete your smartphone data, you might also delete the data on your media card. For more information, contact your administrator.
    Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you update any software. Maintaining a current backup file on your computer might allow you to recover smartphone data if yoursmartphone is lost, stolen, or corrupted by an unforeseen issue.

    How to: Synchronization About synchronization and reconciliation The wireless data synchronization feature is designed to synchronize organizer data (contacts, calendar entries, tasks, and
    memos) between your BlackBerry® smartphone and the email application on your computer over the wireless network.
    The wireless email reconciliation feature is designed to reconcile email between your smartphone and the email application on
    your computer over the wireless network. When you file or delete email messages on your smartphone, these email messages
    should be filed or deleted in the email application on your computer. Likewise, any changes that you make to email messages in the email application on your computer should be reflected on your smartphone.
    In rare cases, if your smartphone doesn't recognize fields in a contact, calendar entry, or email account, some data or email
    can't be synchronized or reconciled.
    If wireless data synchronization isn't available on your smartphone or if you turned off this feature, you can use the
    BlackBerry® Desktop Software to synchronize your organizer data. For more information, see the Help in the BlackBerry
    Desktop Software.
    Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you

    with the email application on your computer, because the birthday field is a date field in the email application on your
    computer.
