BlackBerry Smartphones Action required: update password! again and again and again

Anyone know what is happening, these last 10 + days I have to update my password, even though I haven't changed it.  Once I have fix it and save, I get the e-mails, but then I get the dreaded again message... in this case each houirs 2-3.  Sprint tells me that it's not them and getting help from RIM is impossible

Thanks for the link, it is easier to do on the PC than on the BB.  The screen looks different (of course) than doing it on the BB, but the information that I can access and edit is exactly the same from the link I would do on my BB.

I went through the steps to empty and retype the password and I started to receive my emails again.  I'll report tomorrow if that solves the problem or if it is only temporary.

If this isn't a perminate solution I will try to delete the entire account, then set up fresh and see if it works.

Very grateful for your contribution.

  • BlackBerry smartphones HELP! Forgotten password and secret question answer!

    I forgot my password and secret answer to my account ID Blackberry. On my phone, he said that, if you forgot your password and your secret answer to your blackberry ID I have to go online and reset my password and secret my answer, but put it back online, there only one option is to reset your password and by doing this I need to write in my secret answer to my question that I forgot. All solutions?

    To reset a forgotten password, you need your secret answer. Period. If you forgot the secret answer, you will not reset the password to your BlackBerry ID. You will need to create a BlackBerry ID and try again. There is no way around that, it's a part of the security of a BlackBerry phone.

    Sorry I can't be more positive. See you soon.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones location of saved Text messages and downloads please as a desire to update the device software

    I have a Blackberry 9300. I noticed while testing option 'restore' in Blackberry Desktop Software 'Saved messages' is grey so not able to restore and downloaded programs were not included in the backup course so I'm delaying the update of the OS 6 bundle OS 6 bundle 1879 2949 until I can get these issues resolved. First of all, where are my saved text messages would be they located on the SD card? Secondly, where are the downloaded applications and how would bring him back, I should reinstall individually or is there a better method I guess updating the software of the device would eliminate any reference to them? Thanks in advance, Marcia

    2. go to my world

    3. follow one (and only one!) of these steps:

    3. for the BB keyboard-oriented - hold down the ALT key and press on, in the sequence R, then S, then T

    3B. for touch screen only BBs - hold the num-lock (! 123 button) so that it hangs and then press on, in the sequence 3, then 4, then)

    5. If your BB locks after issuing clear cache, do a battery pull reboot

    6. return to AppWorld/MyWorld (it can be slow, while it re - sync).

    If (4) stage arrives not as described, then the empty the cache failed.

    I was also interested to read your information on the primary database of smartphone that made me wonder if it was at this location that the saved text messages were built. I mention this as I save some of my text messages I can consult at any time by selecting 'View the Messages stored' in the menu messages text, which lists the emails and text messages, that you saved.

    The Interface of Messages is against the databases on the BB... Watch a saved messages can be as simple as a filter that is applied to display only those, but always from the same database. Also understand that the 'Messages' is a term Super set, with "email", "SMS", and other types of messages into subsets.

    Saving messages electronic elsewhere are not a problem but saved SMS backup does not seem to be an option, why would I need to check this feature before upgrading the device software. Appreciate your answer to that one.

    As I said, I suspect saved SMS Messages to be a subset of the base of great set 'SMS Messages"together with the message 'saved' being a subset within this database.

    I can't answer definitively for you because I've never had the problem you are experiencing. You may need to test to know for sure.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones purchased antiques 9900 on ebay and the seller cannot remember the password

    Hi, I bought a 9900 on ebay as a spare part and repair, I set the screen and found it was password protected, and the salesman says he can't remember the password. How do I bypass the password so I can reset back to factory settings? I don't want anyone to think I stole this, if someone can explain to me how to upload a photo I can post a screenshot of my purchase on ebay.

    Very simple, enter the wrong password 10 times.

    You will be asked to type "blackberry" in the fifth and tenth incorrect entries and the device will be wiped of the personal data of all the precedents of the user, preferences, etc., and you'll end up with a cool feature.

  • BlackBerry smartphones cannot create new email address and the password are correct

    Just transferred one of my domains hosting that I use for my other domain. Went to create an e-mail account for the 3 email addresses I had the BB under prior host. Removed the old accounts. Click Setup mail accounts, then other then entered the correct address and the correct password. Received message 'invalid address or password '. Not possible I installed these accounts on my PC and my IPad with no problems. It seems that BB won't accept any new domain name account that I transferred 10 days ago, can someone help me please? Thank you!

    TCC - I THANK YOU first to respond to my situation and the second to be ON - it appears that you are an expert on the RIM! That was the problem - integration. Apparently my Blackberry account 'forgotten' about my domain name and had to be reinstated. I discovered by obtaining technical support for my carrier, AT & T and when they could not understand why the e-mail accounts could not be created, they transferred me to RIM. The first level of technology was also confused, but Nick and then of the immediately higher level of tech told me exactly what you have written here - same problem, same solution. CptS, thank you!

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not update AppWorld 907 invalid COD

    Hi guys. I bought my Torch 9800 (v6.0.0.570) in 2011 and so far the problem is still not resolved. Everytime I open the AppWorld

    -A message appears: "To continue to use Blackberry App World, you must upgrade your current version."

    - Then I download the update.

    Whenever the 99% achieved download bar, suddenly a message appears "907 invalid COD".

    I can't even delete my BB AppWorld. There is no option "Delete" in "Application Management" or "Modules".

    Hi Firdaus92

    In this case, it is advisable to upgrade the version of your operating system to the v6.0.0.756

    Search and download your OS and everything above applies

    By sdgardne 

     

    However, here's what I propose...

    The easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do on MAC):

    (1) make sure you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find complete instructions via the link in my sig auto below. (It's probably debatable given the errors you have... it is likely that your data are already parts of your device, which means that you must now rely on a backup you took before that happened.)

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

    5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

    • KB19915 How to perform a clean reload of the smartphone BlackBerry using BlackBerry Desktop Software application software

  • Frozen BlackBerry Smartphones after typing the password (). Help!

    Any ideas before making a hard reset?

    Last night, my Blackberry is not completely unblock after as I type my password. I type the right password and press ENTER, the password input section darkens (or it will stay on the "Enter Password" screen and seem to freeze). (If I type the wrong password it just invites me again, so I know I type the password). This is according to that multiple battery pulls.

    Sometimes, after you type the password, I can hold the blackberry button and it will bring to the top of the box that allows me to BBM, browser, homescreen, etc and I can "switch" to this program, but there is a sort of shadow frozen area enter the password on the app that never I going to and I can't use the keyboard or the trackball in these applications.

    This "box of jelly ' prevents me from using any application on my BB!

    I CAN receive calls. Barely. I can only make calls if I remove the battery and only unlock the phone and go to the option to purchase the place.

    I upgraded to OS 5 a week ago and until last night, things were fine. I hear my BB when it receives messages (work tones) or txt etc, but cannot read anything due to the lock!

    The only suspect is Google Talk, I have installed two days ago and seemed to be hogging resources and drain the battery, however the phone worked well for about a day with it on. Google Talk is perhaps run at startup and hang up things? I doubt it, but it is full disclosure.

    I also, pulled battery and removed the micro-sd card to see if it had an effect - unfortunately nothing helped.

    An analogy I can think of it is as if Windows Explorer is blocked, but everything else works.

    THOUGHTS?

    Try this:

    (1) make sure that you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    (2) on your PC, go to start > run and copy and paste the following line exactly (i.e. with quotation marks):

    'c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader\loader.exe' /nojvm

    (3) the Application Loader Wizard will appear - click on "next".
    (4) in the ' connection: ' drop-down menu, you should see "USB - PIN: UNKNOWN". Click on the button "next".
    (5) you should see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Try UNclicking the Google Talk application and remove the device and we'll see if that is the question.

    NOTE: If you do not display the list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead to see the message "the Blackberry Desktop Software has no Blackberry Device Software for the device you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator', then you must download the Blackberry operating system for your support and your device.

    Just select the appropriate type of carrier and network, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the steps above again and you should be on the right track.

    I received a notice that there is a software update, with improvements and tried to apply today using the USB connection.

    Don.

    I would first say a reboot, once again, like that >

    With the BlackBerry powereddevice, remove the battery for five minutes and then reinsert the battery to restart. A reboot in this way is prescirbed for most the gltiches and operating system errors, and you will lose any data on the device doing so.

    Now, if you get the error 523, you will need to follow these steps and remove all your third party apps, at least for now, until you add a trailing by one to see which is the cause of the problem.
