CHAPTER 27
Maintaining Your Handheld
Doing a hard reset
Only do a hard reset if a soft reset doesn’t solve your problem, or if you want to clear all of your
information from your handheld.
A hard reset deletes all records and entries stored on your handheld, including
the username that identifies the handheld. This is another reason why it's important to
synchronize often, so you have an up-to-date backup available. Before you do a hard reset, be sure
to synchronize. Applications, files, and folders moved to your handheld's internal drive with File
Transfer are not automatically backed up during synchronization. Use File Transfer to copy or
move the updated files and folders to your computer, or to back up the contents of your
handheld's entire internal drive to your computer.
