How to Reset your Lotus Notes Internet Password

Your Lotus Notes Internet Password is used for two key reasons. First, it keeps your mobile devices synchronized with Lotus Notes. Second, you must use this password to login to OMS and Webmail applications. You can use this guide to reset your password when encountering issues with these applications.

If you reset your Lotus Notes Internet password, you may need to set the same password on your mobile device's lotus notes account. After changing your password, you will not be able to recieve lotus notes emails on your phone.

1. Start Lotus Notes and open your workspace.

If you have the USE Directory on your workspace already, skip to step 5.

6. Double click the entry with your name. You should see the screen below. If not, ensure the first tab "basics" is selected. Click "Edit Person".
