    2. Tap the Menu icon  . 
    3. Tap App, and then tap Delete.

    6. Tap Yes.
    7. Tap Done.

    Security
    Your organizer comes with a Security application so that 
    unauthorized users cannot view the entries you wish to protect. 
    In Security, you can do the following:
    nTurn off and lock your organizer so that it does not operate until 
    you enter the correct password.
    nHide records that you mark as private. You can hide private 
    records with or without a password. Without a password, private 
    records are hidden until you set the Security application to show 
    them. With a password, you must enter the password to view the 
    private entries. See “Making records private” in Chapter 4 for 
    information on making records private.
    Assigning a password
    You can assign a password to protect your private records and to lock 
    your organizer.
    To assign a password:
    1. Tap the Applications icon  . 
    2. Tap the Security icon.
    3. Tap the Password box.
    4. Enter a password. 
    5. Tap OK. 
    6. Enter the same password a second time, and tap OK.

    Changing or deleting a password
    Once you define a password for your organizer, you can change or 
    delete it at any time. You must enter the current password before you 
    can change or delete it.
    To change or delete your password:
    1. Tap the Password box.
    2. Enter the current password. 
    3. Tap OK.
    4. Do one of the following:
    To change the password, enter the new password, and tap OK.
    To delete the password, tap Delete.
    Locking your organizer
    You can also lock your organizer so that you need to enter your 
    password to operate it.
    Important:If you lock your organizer, you must enter the exact 
    password to re-activate your organizer. If you forget the 
    password, you need to perform a hard reset to resume 
    using your organizer. Performing a hard reset deletes all 
    the records in your organizer; however, you can restore 
    all synchronized data at the next HotSync operation. See 
    “Performing a hard reset” in Appendix A for more 
    information.
    Tap here 
    						
    							Page 46  Managing Your Applications
    To lock your organizer with a password:
    1. Perform a HotSync operation to synchronize the data between 
    your organizer 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 Turn Off & Lock Device.
    4. Tap Off & Lock.
    5. To start your organizer, turn it on, and then enter the password. 
    Recovering from a forgotten password
    If you did not activate the Off & Lock feature and you forget your 
    password, you can delete the password from your organizer. Deleting 
    a forgotten password also deletes all entries and files marked as 
    Private.
    Important:If you synchronize with your computer before deleting a 
    forgotten password, your organizer restores your private 
    entries the next time you perform a HotSync operation, 
    but it does not restore the password.
    To delete a forgotten password:
    1. Tap Forgotten Password.
    2. Tap Yes.
    Tap Off and 
    Lock

    Using Your Basic Applications
    Your Palm III™ organizer includes these basic applications:
    nDate Book
    nAddress Book
    nTo Do List
    nMemo Pad
    nCalculator
    nExpense
    This chapter is divided into three sections:
    n“Overview of basic applications” briefly describes each 
    application and explains how to open it.
    n“Common tasks” gives instructions on how to do tasks that you 
    can do in most or all of the basic applications. It’s easy to transfer 
    what you learn in one application to the others because the 
    structure and behavior of all the applications are quite similar.
    n“Application-specific tasks” is organized by application and gives 
    instructions on how to do tasks that are specific to each 
    application.
