SplashID provides quick and easy access to all of your sensitive personal
identification information, including usernames, passwords, credit cards,
PINs, calling card numbers, frequent flyer numbers, insurance info and
more. Data is stored in a secure, encrypted, password protected format
and can be synchronized between SplashID on your Series 60 phone.
Connect your phone to your desktop computer. Double-click the SplashIDS60.SIS
file to install it on your phone.
When you launch SplashID you will be prompted to enter a registration
code or to run in Trial mode. You may run the software for 30-days in
full-functioning Trial mode. The Trial software and Registered software
are identical. Once the trial period ends you must purchase and enter

Trial version will be converted into a Registered version and all your
data will remain intact.

Types and Categories
Types |
The difference between Categories and Types is best illustrated
by example. You may use Categories to separate your Business
records from your Personal records, while you use Types
to separate your Credit Card records from your Web Login
records.
Categories act as filters for grouping related records.
The two pre-defined Categories are Business and Personal,
though you may add more by choosing Edit Categories from
the Category menu.
Types act as templates, which define the structure for
the items you want to store in SplashID. You may define
up to 6 custom field labels and a default icon for each
type, as well as specify the fields you wish to mask.
For example, you may create a type for Web Logins, which
includes custom field labels for username, password and
URL, with a globe icon, and the password field masked;
and you may create a Type for Credit Cards which includes
custom field labels for credit card number, expiration
date and PIN, with a Visa icon, and the credit card number
and PIN masked.
Edit Types -- Select Edit Types from the type menu
to display the Edit Types dialog. You may create an unlimited
number of Types. Several sample Types are provided, which
you may edit or delete. Select an existing type, press the
Options key and select edit, or select New to create a new
one. The Define type dialog is displayed.

Custom Field Labels
|
When you create a record, the field labels
and mask settings are defined by its Type.
You may change the Field Labels and masking, however, on
a record by record basis by selecting Customize Fields from
the Options menu in the Edit View.
|
|
Masking
|
Fields that are Masked appear as four asterisks
(****). You may show or hide the masked data by selecting
Mask/Unmask data from the Options menu, or by pressing the
"*" key on the keypad.
If you wish to permanently mask or unmask a field for a
given Type, you can change its mask setting in the Edit
Type dialog.
If you wish to change the mask settings for the given record,
you can do this in the Custom Field
Labels dialog.
|
|
You can secure your data in SplashID so that a password must be entered
to access the application. You will be required to enter the password
when launching SplashID, or when waking your phone if SplashID was last
running when it went to sleep. Once you set a password, SplashID encrypts
your data using Blowfish encryption to ensure data security.
- Setting a Password -- To set a password, select Set Password
from the Options Menu in either the List View or Detail View. The
Set Password dialog is displayed. Enter a password in the New Password
field, and verify the password by entering it again in the Confirm
field.
- Entering a Password -- You will be required to enter your
password each time you launch SplashID, or when you next use your
phone if SplashID was last running when it became idle.
- Changing a Password -- To change a password, select Password
from the Options Menu, enter your Old Password, then enter and confirm
the New Password.
- Removing a Password -- To remove a password, select Set Password
from the Options Menu, enter your Old Password, then leave the New
Password and Confirm fields blank.
Security Options -- Choose Security Options from the
Options menu to specify the period of time that must elapse before SplashID
auto-locks. Once SplashID locks, you must enter your password to open
SplashID. There are two settings for the Security Options:
- Lock when idle -- When the phone becomes
idle, SplashID will lock immediately by default.
- Lock in background -- If you switch to another
application, SplashID will lock immediately by default.
If you wish, you may specify a longer delay, at the risk of less security.
If you have specified a longer delay (e.g., 10 minutes) but then desire
to lock SplashID immediately, you may select Lock Now from the Options
Menu (or press the "#" key).
Importing Data
The SplashID Standalone Desktop is included with your purchase
of SplashID for Series 60. You can download it here:
SplashID Password Manager Standalone Desktop
To import data from the Palm (or other) version:
- Launch SplashID Desktop for Palm OS.
- Select File > Export > SplashID
VID and save the records. Password is optional.
- Launch SplashID Standalone
Desktop.
- Select File > Import > SplashID vID and select the
file you exported in step 2.
The Series 60 version of SplashID does not synchronize with
the SplashID desktop like the other platform versions at this time.
This version can, however, import vID files from internal
memory or a card. We suggest using the card method as it's easier to
navigate to the file.
To import a vID file via the card do the following:
- Export a vID file from File > Export in SplashID desktop
- Copy the vID file from SplashID desktop to a memory card
- Insert the card in your device and choose Import... from the Options
menu. The card is E.
If you Bluetooth the file to the device, it'll be in:
C:\system\Mail\<cryptic folder name>\<subfolder>\vID file
name
