Hi Maria,

Why would you want to write down your password on a piece of paper.

Would it not just be easier to tell the people verbally what it is.

Printing passwords on a piece of paper isn't the most secure thing to do.

Hi folks.

I have a quick question for yous.

God willing, I'm planning to purchase a Samsung trend 2 lite phone from a
store on Grafton street. I'm just wandering, do I need to ask someone to
print off my google password so that the lads in the shop could re sink my
new phone to my google account? I remember giving that info to my brother
last January when he sinked my existing handset to my google account. I'm
just not sure how it works for subsequent handsets if you want to re sink
your new phone to your google account second time around? do you need to
provide your google account info every time you purchase a new handset?

I was informed by the lads in the shop that they'll help me transfer my
contacts and calendar once I have my contacts backed up onto my sim and
calendar backed up onto a memory card. I've already asked Karen, a very
technology savi lady in my building to help me back up my contacts and
calendar, but it just hit me that I forgot to ask the shop about re sinking
my new phone to my existing google account. If the lads need my password
etc., then I'll need to make sure I have it ready on a peace of paper for
them by this Friday, but if the re sinking happens automatically, then I
won't need to trouble anyone about printing out that info.

I do hope I'm making sense.

Please let me know if yous have further questions and I'll try and explain
better.

Thanks a million in advance.

All the best and God bless.

Maria.
