Backing up data
You can use the P910a Backup and Restore PC software to back up
the contents stored in your P910a to your computer. Keeping
backups of your P910a contents on your computer means that

can be restored into the P910a. Backups should be made on a
regular basis. See the online help for
P910a Backup and Restore for
more information on how to use the application.

upgraded by a Service Partner. Always back up your data before
handing over the P910a for upgrading, so that you can restore it
afterwards
