    Protecting your data (Security)
    Your CLIÉ handheld includes a Security application that allows you to
    protect your data from unauthorized users.
    In Security, you can do the following:
    •Lock and turn off your CLIÉ handheld so that it does not operate until you
    enter the correct password.
    •Set the CLIÉ handheld to automatically lock at/after a preset time, or
    whenever you turn it off.
    •Mask all records that you mark as private so the information appears
    greyed out.
    •Hide all records that you mark as private so they do not appear on any
    screen.
    Tip
    All private records can be masked or hidden, with or without a password. Without a
    password, the masked record will be unmasked when you tap it. With a password, you
    must enter the password to view the private records.

    CLIÉ handheld.

    Purging records
    If outdated records of Date Book or To Do List take up memory on your
    CLIÉ handheld, it’s a good idea to remove them by using Purge. If you think
    Date Book or To Do List records might prove useful later, you can save them
    in an archive file on your computer. Purging is not available in Address
    Book or Memo Pad, so delete outdated records from these applications.
    1Open the application.
    2Tap the Menu  icon.
    3Tap Purge from the Record menu.
    The Purge screen appears.
    4Tap the arrow V and select how old a record must be to be
    purged.
    5If you want to save a copy of the purged records on your
    computer, select the “Save archive copy on PC” check box.
    If you want to delete the records completely, clear it.
    6Tap OK.
    If you chose to save a copy of the purged records, your CLIÉ handheld
    transfers them to an archive file on your computer the next time you
    perform a HotSync
    ® operation.
    Note
    Purging does not happen automatically. You must tap the command to make it happen.
