Palm Desktop password without Palm

I am still using the Palm Desktop without a Palm for my PIM because I like it better. How can I manually insert password protection
for the Desktop? What file can I edit to put a password in. I no longer have a Palm since my last one died and Palm is no longer making
PDA's. 
Post relates to: Tungsten E

Palm Desktop has the built-in ability to assign a password to your Hotsync ID.  Go to Tools > Options > Security.  (At least, that's the location in Palm Desktop 6.2.2 and I seem to recall it being the same or similar in PD 4.2.

  • Removing a password without OS 10.5.8

    During county recycling,  we  collect any or all desktops or laptops that can be made usable for those who can't afford any other computer.   On our last round up, we received a Powerbook G4 but no software.  It doesn't have a working dvd but we can manage that with an external drive.  The big problem is that we can not pass on any computer with personal information on it.   This Powerbook has a password!  I have had no luck in finding the former owner as he/she could remove the password for us.  We can't afford the cost of the OS.  Is there any other way to remove a password so that the laptop can be made usable?

    Only if it is bootable. If it requires a Firmware Password to startup the computer that would require a special trick. If the computer is at least bootable, then see:

  • Leopard asking for password without any reason ?

    Hi,
    Leopard asked me for user password without any reason. I wasn't installing any software.. just surfing the web.
    Furthermore my desktop wasn't working so I relaunched Finder.
    Is it kind of virus or is it normal ?
    thanks

    I've selected All Processes but there isn't installer... see the picture:

  • HT4314 How can I reset the gem center password without the birthday

    Does anyone know how to reset game center password without knowing the birthday.  My son setup his own game center account and to logge out and know can't reset the password.

    Boot from your recovery partition by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the recovery desktop appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, enter “resetpassword” and press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password.
    Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

  • How do i reset my ipod password without restoring it to factory settings?

    i set a password on my ipod touch. then didnt use the ipod for a few months. i forgot the password. is there a way to reset the password Without reseting it to factory settings?

    If you have not disable it you can Restore it in iTunes from Backup using the computer you normally backup with.

  • But how do I create a new iTunes backup password without knowing the previous one?

    In case anyone keeps track of such things, I'm among those folks who really doesn't recall ever being asked to create an iTunes backup password, but that's irrelevant to my question.
    I'm not in any bind. I don't need my backup files to restore anything. I will shed no tears as they are moved to the Recycle Bin (indeed, I will gladly do the deed myself).
    That said, it appears impossible to create a new backup password without knowing the previous one.
    If the only "solution" is to wipe my iPhone's memory and start from scratch, I will be a sad camper.
    Any help? Are backups to iCloud encrypted?
    Cheers...

    Additionally:
    Be super critical & meticulous (and whatever other synonym I missed) when you get a new password:
    Write it onto your bedroom wall, or someplace off of a computer that you will always find.
    If you active 2-step verification, the key is VERY important. Lose it & you may be toast.
    If you don’t 2 step verify, & use the Security Question instead --> do not lose, or forget the answers.
    Very nearly the same outcome!!!!!:  Bad experience.
    If you add a 2nd email address, make sure its a RESCUE address not just an alternate address.
    If you lose these, you lose access to your 3rd party purchases via Appstore for future upgrade. That will make you VEWY, VEWY UNHAPPY. Apple new OS versions do update, but add a new device & likely you will be unable to use your content on that device. It will never load if the ID locks up.

  • TS3276 It would seem that my Mail password is not my Apple ID password.  I thought they would all be the same.  I have no idea what my Mail password is and want to change it but can't as I do not know how to reset the Mail password without having my old o

    I keep getting asked for my Mail password when I want to send or receive mail in Mail.  I do not know what this password is as I thought it was my Apple ID password, but this fails.  I have changed that password so many times recently as I thought they were linked (why aren't they?).  How do I change my Mail password without having my old one?  Are there some security questions I can answer to do this?  Heeeeelp please.

    Your iCloud password is your Apple ID and password. You must know it since you are posting here.
    Have you transfered your MMe account to iCloud? If not, open iCloud in system preferences and sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    If you have transfered it to iCloud, do this:
    Go to the iCloud icon in System Preferences and open it. Sign out of iCloud.
    Open Mail. If the iCloud or MMe account still exists in Mail's preferences under accounts, select the account and delete it. Then sign back into iCloud and choose Mail and any other applications in iCloud that you use. The Mail account should be put into Mail automatically.
    Signing out of iCloud should remove the account from Mail and signing back in should put it back. There is no manuel account creation by you when using Apple Mail application.

  • How do i reset my Iphone 4 password without restoring to default?

    Recently I've been having problems with my roommates watching me enter my password which forced me to change it periodically.
    Only now I can't remember what I changed it to most recently and restoring it to factory settings isn't really an option considering the volume of the content on the device.
    I've been without access to my phone for the past week and it's getting almost aggravating having to call and talk to some lady about the issue I'm having, having her sound very empathetic and saying they could "assist me in resolving this today", only to have her say that I'd need to pay $30 just to have her tell me a few words.
    I don't have $30 right now and I think it's beyond stupid that they're 'unable to help' me because of this.
    In the Backups section of the Apple site I read:
    " If you protect your iPhone or iPod touch with a passcode, you will be prompted to enter the passcode when you connect to iTunes. Once you successfully enter the passcode, iTunes will recognize that device as authorized and you will not need your passcode to back up or sync (Which I've done). When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode.) iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups. "
    I've just tried restoring from a backup I created last week but my password is still enabled and I'm still unable to remember what I changed it to.
    I'm not sure if I misunderstood the bolded section but I was under the impression that restoring it from iOS 4 or later would remove/reset my current password and allow me to set a new one. That hasn't been the case.
    I'm not really sure where to go from here, so any and all help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mjk

    how do i delete icloud account on my ipad when my apple ID is non active email and i don't know the password and can't reset password without active email

    If the iCloud account you are trying to delete is old ID that was later updated to change it to your current ID, you can go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now, if desired, you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    i have connected my macbook pro to my tv via MDP to HDMI port cable, all that is showing up is the basic desktop image without any icons, what do i do to correct this

    Your MBP is running in "extended desktop" mode, where the two screens together make one larger area to display windows. You can drag one or more windows from the primary (internal) screen to the secondary (TV) screen. By default, the secondary screen is off to the right of the primary screen.
    If you would prefer the two screens show the same image, you want to switch to "mirroring" mode. You will have to pick a single resolution for both screens, which may look poor on one or the other.
    Both the relative positions of the two screens in extended desktop mode and the switch to mirroring mode can be set in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement.
