As soon as you type the 5th letter of the new password, you
will see the message Your password has been changed for a
second, and then you will return to the file which you were
editing. (Passwords are all lowercase; pressing shift or caps
lock has no effect.)
When password protection is enabled, anytime you change
files you will be asked for that file’s password before being
allowed to edit that file. All individual file passwords can be
overridden by typing the master password.
If, when turning on the AlphaSmart, you are prompted for
the password for a file that isn’t yours, simply press the
appropriate file number to get your own file and enter the
password.
Note: This password system was designed to protect against acci-
dental or casual mischievous data loss and to provide a minimum
level of data privacy. It is NOT designed to prevent concerted
malicious efforts at data destruction. All security systems have
ways of being “broken” if you try hard enough. As the old saying
goes, “Locks are to keep honest people honest.”
■ GET UTILITY SOFTWARE
Get Utility for Mac v2.0
The Get Utility for Mac v2.0 is a software utility program
that allows the user to send text between a Mac and an
AlphaSmart, AlphaSmart Pro, or AlphaSmart 2000.
You can send text to an AlphaSmart from your Mac either by
using an ADB “Y” cable, or by wireless infrared transfer if
your AlphaSmart is equipped with an IR module. You can
download the upgrades (at no cost) from the Support Section
of our home page at http://www.alphasmart.com.
Note: For the sake of simplicity, the term “IR” is used to represent
infrared transfer.
