You will need to remember the old password or you won't be able to unlock it. You can reset the password to work on new notes but it won't unlock the ones you've already created.

You Need the Password:

Without the password, you cannot get them. It is a theft deterrent. Look all around your room, and see what comes to mind. I sat in my timeout room chair in the corner of my room, I looked up at mom and said to myself, "Oh yeah! I remember now!".

Based on Keywords:

  1. Pet name
  2. Family name
  3. School Name
  4. Favorite place
  5. Teacher's name
  6. Shopping Store
  7. Previous Passwords


Keep a Hardcopy:

Take this as a learning experience, knowing that it is important to keep a handwritten, hardcopy of your password. Store it in a private location that only YOU are aware of, and only YOU have access to.
