I have a Blackberry 7510 that I am configuring for a user.
I need to know how to remove all the data ( calendar ) from the previous user. I went to sync and it tried to transfer old information into the new users account. Can someone tell me if there is a way to clear out all the data?

Please let me know
Mike
 
This should do the trick.
Disconnect the Blackberry from the PC.
On the Blackberry open Options, then security.
Click the wheel to get the menu, and select Wipe Handheld.

This should do the trick. You'll have to let me know, I'm not going to wipe my Blackberry out just to test, sorry.

Thanks for the tip. I have to keep looking the wipe command was not available. I have a earlier version I guess. I read somewhere if you enter the wrong password 10 times it will erase the data. Any tips where I can check that out?

I remember something about that on a very old blackberry that I had. I'm not sure if that's still true or not. Best way would be to enter a password and try it out.

It is still true.
