### Troubleshooting tips

**Problem:** The SD card is not available as an option for Backup

> **Solution 1:** Remove the SD card and re-insert it. To remove the
> card, push it into the PDA slot and it will release outward.
>
> **Solution 2:** If the SD Card is not available, try an SD card from
> another PDA. Be sure to give the file a unique name such as "PDA21
> 10OCT06" so it does not overwrite any files that already exist on the
> SD card.

**Problem:** PDA is not responding.

> **Solution:** On the back of the PDA is a small hole for resetting the
> PDA. Press the tip of the stylus into the hole to reboot the PDA.
