Page 232 Setting Preferences for Your Handheld
Adding a DNS number
If your ISP or dial-in server requires a DNS number and you did not
enter that information in the Network Preferences screen, it will
appear that you successfully logged into your network. When you try
to use an application or look up information, however, the connection
fails. If this occurs, try adding a DNS number. Ask your ISP or your
System Administrator for the correct Primary and Secondary DNS IP
numbers.
Owner preferences
The Owner Preferences screen enables you to record a name, company
name, phone number, or any other information that you want to
associate with your handheld.
If you use the Security application to turn off and lock your handheld
with a password, information that you put in the Owner Preferences
displays the next time you turn on your handheld. See “Security” in
Chapter 3 for more information.
To enter the Owner preferences:
■
Enter the text that you want to associate with your handheld in the
Owner Preferences screen. If the text cannot fit on one screen, a
scroll bar automatically appears on the right side of the screen.
If you assign a password with the Security application, the
information in the Owner Preferences screen cannot be changed. In
this case, an Unlock button appears at the bottom of the screen.
To unlock the Owner Preferences screen:
1. Tap Unlock.
2. Enter the password that you defined in the Security application.
3. Tap OK.
