Recovering from a Forgotten Password

If you forget your password, you can delete the password from your SPT 1700 terminal.
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 SPT 1700 terminal 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 the Forgotten Password button in the Security screen to open the Delete
Password dialog.
2. Tap the Yes button to delete the password, as well as all records and entries marked
"Private."
