To prevent loss of data, you should back up your HP Jornada frequently. You
can back up your HP Jornada in two ways:

Use ActiveSync to back up all data to your desktop PC.

Use the HP backup application to back up all data or only your Contacts,
Calendar, and Tasks databases (PIM data) to a CompactFlash card or to
internal memory.

Backup files are not password-protected, even if you have set a password for
your HP Jornada. If you store sensitive information on your HP Jornada,
protect the backup file as you would any other file that contains sensitive
information.
