"How do you change passwords in Premium Edition 2008?"

For security, users should change their initial Password as soon as possible. An Amicus Administrator can change or reset a password, but they cannot look up an existing password.

Changing User Passwords

  1. Choose Preferences on the navigation list of the Office window. The Preferences view appears.

  2. Click General > My Profile.

  3. Click Edit to the right of your name in the My Profile view. Your Person Edit dialog appears.

  4. In your Person Edit dialog, you may adjust your name, communications, and address information (we recommend that you have a primary email address specified in the Communications section, so that you can receive email reminders and change notifications about upcoming or changed events).

  5. To change your password or User ID, click Office Access at the bottom.

  6. The Office Access dialog appears.

    Change your User ID if you like. User IDs are not case sensitive for purposes of logging in.

    Type your existing password in the Old Password box, type the new one in the New Password box, and type the new one again in the Verify box.

    Passwords are case sensitive, and must be at least eight characters long. Security experts recommend that a password should include at least one uppercase or lowercase letter, at least one number, and at least one punctuation character. It is also recommended that a password should not contain your User ID nor any part of your full name.

    When you are finished, click OK.

    NOTE: The lower part of the Office Access dialog enables you to grant other Firm Members access to your Office
