    April 15, 2003 T-Mobile Sidekick Owner’s Manual  211
    Manage Trash
    You can have a total of 50 tasks in the system at one time, including items in the Trash. This means you’ll want 
    to periodically empty your Trash, or you’ll be left with no space for new tasks. Once a task is in the Trash, you 
    can discard it (completely remove it from the system) or retrieve it (move it back into your list of tasks).
    1To open your Trash, click Tras h in the sidebar on the To Do page. All discarded tasks are displayed on the 
    right side of the page in descending order of due date.
    2To remove the tasks from your system completely, click Empty Trash. You’ll be asked to confirm your action 
    since the tasks will be permanently deleted. Click OK to proceed, or click Cancel to return to the Trash.
    3To retrieve a task, select the check box on the left side of the task, then click Retrieve Checked. The task 
    will be removed from the list in the Trash; a message at the top of the page confirms the retrieval.  
    						
    							Keeping Notes on the Web
    April 15, 2003 T-Mobile Sidekick Owner’s Manual  212
    24.  Keeping Notes on the Web
    You can read your notes, type new notes, edit existing notes, and discard notes...all while you’re working at your 
    computer! Any changes you make on the Web interface will be synchronized with the Notes application on the 
    device. In this chapter, you can read about how to use Notes on the Web:
    Opening Notes on the Web
    First, open your Jump page by following the instructions in Signing In To the Desktop Interface on page 166. 
    Open the Notes application by clicking   on your Jump page button bar, or by clicking the Notes icon 
    in the Notes section of the Jump page. By default, the Browse Notes view is displayed:
    Browse Notes
    The Browse Notes page lists all your current notes on the right side of the page in alphabetical order, as shown 
    in the illustration above. • Opening Notes on the Web on page 212
    •Browse Notes on page 212
    •Add a Note on page 213•Edit a Note on page 213
    •Discard a Note on page 213
    •Manage Your Trash on page 214 
    						
    							Keeping Notes on the Web
    April 15, 2003 T-Mobile Sidekick Owner’s Manual  213
    On the left side of the page you see the sidebar, which includes links for New Note, Browse Notes (the current 
    selection), and Trash:
    Add a Note
    1In the Notes sidebar, click New Note. This opens the New Note page.
    Tip: If you are on the Jump page, you can open the New Note page directly by clicking New Note in the 
    Notes section of the page.
    2When the New Note page opens, your cursor is automatically placed in a text box; type your note. It can be 
    up to 8000 characters (on color devices) or 1000 characters (on grayscale devices), including returns and 
    spaces. Any email addresses in the note will be linked to the Email applications Compose page. URLs in the 
    note will be displayed as active links.
    3When you finish your note, click Save. If you decide not to keep the note, click Cancel to return to the 
    Browse Notes page.
    4After clicking Save, you are returned to the Browse Notes page, with the note you just created added to the 
    list on the right.
    Edit a Note
    1On the Browse Notes page, click Edit in the far right column for the note you want to edit. The note opens in 
    an editable text box.
    2Make your changes to the note, then click Save. If you decide to discard your changes, click Cancel.
    3After clicking Save, you are returned to the Browse Notes page. The note you just edited will appear with 
    your changes, and the modified time will be updated to reflect the date and time you saved the edited note.
    Discard a Note
    1On the Browse Notes page, check the box to the left of the note you want to remove. You can select as many 
    notes as you want.
    2Click Discard Checked at the top or bottom of the list of notes. All selected notes will be moved to Trash; a 
    message at the top of the page confirms the discard.

    Manage Your Trash
    You can have a total of 50 notes (on color devices) or 20 notes (on grayscale devices) in the system at one time, 
    including the notes in Trash. This means you’ll want to periodically empty your Trash, or you’ll be left with no 
    space for new notes. Once a note is in the Trash, you can delete it (completely remove it from the system) or 
    retrieve it (move it back into your list of notes).
    1To open your Trash, click Trash in the Notes sidebar. All discarded notes are displayed on the right side of the 
    page in alphabetical order.
    2To remove the notes from your system completely, click the Empty Trash button. You’ll be asked to confirm 
    your action since the messages will be permanently deleted. Click OK to proceed, or click Cancel to return to 
    the Trash.
    3To retrieve a note, check the box on the left side of the note, then click Retrieve Checked at the bottom of 
    the page. The note will be removed from the list of notes in Trash; a message at the top of the page confirms 
    the retrieval. The modification date and time are not updated since the note itself has not been modified.
