records with or without a password. Without a password, private 
records are hidden until you set the Security application to show 
them. With a password, you must enter the password to view the 
private entries. See “Making records private” in Chapter 4 for

Survey of Basic Applications
These are the basic applications of your organizer:

This chapter is divided into three sections:
n“Overview of basic applications” briefly describes each 
application and explains how to open it.
n“Common tasks” gives instructions on how to do tasks that you 
can do in most or all of the basic applications. It’s easy to transfer 
what you learn in one application to the others because the 
structure and behavior of all the applications are quite similar.
n“Application-specific tasks” is organized by application and gives 
instructions on how to do tasks that are specific to each 
application.
