Resetting your Sony CLIE Handheld
Under normal circumstances, you do not have to reset your CLIE handheld.
On rare occasions, however, your CLIE handheld may no longer respond to
buttons or the screen due to insufficient memory or other reasons. In this
case, you need to perform a reset to get your CLIE handheld running again.
Performing a soft reset
A soft reset tells your CLIE handheld to stop what it’s doing and start over
again. All records and entries stored in your CLIE handheld are retained in
a soft reset.
1
Take out the reset tip by unscrewing the metal barrel from
the stylus quill.
2
Use the reset tip to gently press the reset button inside the
hole on the back panel of your CLIE handheld.
The system shuts down and then restarts.
After restarting, the system displays “palm powered,” “CLIE,” and
“Sony,” followed by the preferences screen for setting the time and date.
