HOWTO: Register / Unlock NewsBreak

[Archived] – Last Updated:

To register NewsBreak, visit the About screen and pick the “Register” button (or Menu -> Register on a Smartphone.)

When registering your software, make sure of the following when inputting the name and key:

  • You are entering the name and key exactly as they appear in your registration email - the name and key are case-sensitive.
  • You are entering the proper name and key for the proper platform. For example, the Windows PC or Desktop PC code should be entered on your desktop PC, and the Pocket PC / Smartphone / Palm code should be entered in your PDA itself.
  • You are using the software or hardware keyboard on your PDA to enter the PDA-specific name and key. Using handwriting recognition software may put spaces into your name or key!

Note: The name and key are completely independent of your device’s username, owner name, or synchronization name. Use the name and key provided in your registration email.
