Hi,

I have an 8310 that I want to wipe email, contact and calendar events from before I give it to my brother to use.

How do I go about doing this besides one item at a time?

Thanks!!!

Make sure you cancel the BIS account that is established with the PIN or switch it to a new PIN if you are getting a new BB before you give it away. Also, if it has been on BES, make sure you delete the IT Policy.
