- I have a new Casio SF-4300 Digital Diary. I've spent *some* amount of time
- entering data. When I tried to access the "secret area", I found that
- apparently a password had been inadvertantly entered and I have no idea what
- it could be! (Not too surprising when you have kids!)
-
- I will probably attempt to backup the current contents to either a PC or unix
- system (depending on where I can scrounge the s/w & cabling) and then reset
- the Casio.
-
- But before I go to the trouble, I was wondering if anyone knew of a "super-
- double-secret backdoor" way of accessing the current password and changing it.
-
- Also, if I do have to reset the Casio and download the data from the saved
- files, I'm guessing that that old password will come along with it. Therefore,
- I'm thinking I'll probably need to do some decryption of the saved data to
- get that password. Does anyone have any experience along these lines who
- could offer any advice?
-
- Thanks!
