BlackBerry Smartphones lock button will not lock password

So I want to password protect my bberry. When I try to lock the camera using the menu button, everything works fine. If I press the lock (on the top of the unit) button or the "*" key when I try to unlock the phone it does NOT ask for a password. Clues?

What you're saying, is that the top button is just for the keyboard/screen lock, but not password lock? And since it is not a key to convenienve it cannot be configured to do otherwise?

So I can just do the convenience key (right rear) password lock keyboard/screen? I think it is the only solution. You have another idea?

  • BlackBerry smartphone App World will not recognize the Playbook password

    My playbook & Desktop Manager accepts the password but App World will not. I get this error message:

    Hi Krypto,

    I did a little more digging and it seems that you can not connect a Playbook through your computer to App World even though the web page indicates to do so. Playbooks can only access the App World apps directly. Thanks for your help.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB Appworld will not work

    Hello

    My Appworld recently stop working.  I removed it, updates downloaded BB and download Appworld yet - still does not work.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you!

    When the BB is back I went to Appworld icon and clicked on it.  Nothing happened.

    If you've forgotten anything and it's really the symptom, then please consider these attempts...

    If you have PayPal with your AppWorld account, then please check your PayPal - log in since a PC/browser and make sure that the credentials you use it are identical to those that allows you to connect to MyWorld. Also make sure you have set to PayPal all credit cards, are current and valid... we learned that if there is No linked to your account credit card PayPal which is not valid for some reason any (for example, expired), it will prevent the AppWorld purchases finished, even if this isn't the source of funding. In addition, there must be at least a (valid) credit card attached to the PayPal account.

    We also heard from some users who report that create a whole new PayPal account somehow corrects things and allows them to make purchases. I don't know why this works, but there are reports it does.

    In addition, you can try this sequence:

    (1) to remove from your BB AppWorld

    • He asks to restart the BB,

    (2) a Batt Pull reboot (power on, remove the battery, wait, insert the battery, wait), even if redundant to the one you did in step 1.

    3) install a new copy of AppWorld (on your BB)

    (4) restart another Batt-sweater

    (5) see if it works now.

    See you soon!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Pocket Mac will not recognize Storm

    Hey guys. I installed Pocket mac on my macbook pro, but it will not sync with my storm. I installed the program with updates several times with the help of the other posts, but nothing seems to work. When I open the program, it does not recognize that I have my phone on. Yet, I am able to access the files on my phone from the finder. When I try to sync it gives me an error message saying "unable to connect to BlackBerry (error 1); jump. "Nobody knows how to solve this problem? I have been going at it for hours and I'm ready for something to work. Thank you!

    Well... I finally got to work after 6 hours. Laughing out loud. I made the mistake of amateur drag sync media in the trash rather than download it again to uninstall. Once I did, it worked fine.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones countdown timer will not be reset (also published in Council 8220)

    I have put up with this problem for quite a while and starts to get really frustrated with it.  There are several topics that describe the 'why' is happening on other Blackberry (Storm 9530) devices but not how to fix it.  At least not how to solve this problem on a 8220.  They all mention the same symptoms, I'm having and related countdown of the number of "negative" (which does make any sense to me).  It was mentioned that the 744 hours is a turning point, and I agree.  I think it has to do with the idea that the timer was not supposed to go to more than 1 month/31 days/744 hours.

    Currently, my timer shows 00:00:00 if I reset, but if I hit the start, he goes to 743:59:59 and countdown starts.  If I try all 1 minute and 5 minutes or whatever it is I have the patience to test, again, it will count down to 0, and then roll immediately to 743:59:59.  If I add 99:00:00, it shows that on the countdown screen, and then if I try to change the time again he auto-remplit with 03:00 (it will still use the rest of I put in next so divided by 24 hours).  Another example, if I put 24:00:00, it will add 24 hours to the existing number (in hundreds) and the field will fill with all zeros again.  I can only reduce the time shown on the clock having a rest and then reset to 0.  Essentially, I can always get to show a multiple of 24 hours, but I'm just trying to set reminders of the laundry, etc...  It's ridiculous!

    (v4.6.0.180 platform 4.1.0.61) I've done a zillion battery tire since it started and I don't want to wipe all my applications...

    mmlowe, please don't double post your questions in the forum... rude and someone has just to clean it up.  Were responded to your other post: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Pearl-BlackBerry-8100/Countdown-timer-won-t-reset/...

  • BlackBerry smartphone APP world will not register

    Tried to download some applications.

    I have always access the authentication ID BB... page and getting stuck there.

    The massage I get is "enter the name account a partner to this smartphone ' which can be translated approximately 'enter the id of the user associated with this smartphone?

    I've updated apps BB, it has not changed a thing.

    Is there a way of "associate (my) id to this smartphone. I can't get what I'm obviously missing :'(

    Thanks in advance

    I think that you are on the right track now.

    With regard to the 9900... Yes, carriers load their bundle of BONES for the BB, and they grow in the Service books specific to BB for the things they want to encourage their customers to use (for example, their specific map app, their specific App Store, etc.), but the base OS comes from the RIM.

    In addition, they may or may not have created a BB ID to this topic... with what we can see now and that you remember (or, more precisely, can't remember), we have no way of knowing for sure.

    All we know is that there is a BBID saved with this BB and, if you don't find the credentials for that, your only option will be clean and create a new ID from BB to use with this BB.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Email icon will not be displayed

    I've added an email account to my weeks of phone and the little icon appeared immediately and I received messages.

    Randomly, today, the icon has disappeared from my home screen (although the email will continue to come through my Messages folder).  I tried everything turning the phone off tension, then back on, delete the account and setting up again and nothing.

    Anyone know why that would happen?

    I have a few other suggestions:

    1. It could have been hidden or moved to another folder accidentally.  The absolute best way to fix this is to Options > theme, press the BB Menu key and select Reset default theme.  It will take all of the icons that were accidentally hidden and re - expose their (and move all icons back to their original position).  Note that you need to move all the icons you want moved again.  Try doing a battery pull after that as well.  This could bring.  If this is not the case, proceed to the next step.
    2. Re-register your device on the BlackBerry network and resend your service books.  To re-register your device, go to Options > Advanced Options > host Routing Table.  Press the BB Menu key, then click on register now.  You will get a new message from the BlackBerry network.  If you can access your site from the BIS, connect via your phone (review the configuration > e-mail settings) or through your computer (Google your carrier + BIS as keywords if you do not know the site).  Once you have connected, on your Storm, press the BB Menu key, and select send Service directories.  On a computer, select Service books in the left menu and return them there.  If you do not know your login information, you can contact the technical support of your operator and ask them to send the directories of service for you.  It takes just a minute.  Once again, followed with a battery pull.

    I hope that one of these two suggestions will work!  Keep us informed!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones installed app will not be displayed

    I installed e-mobile today news app via blackberry and a reason Manager, his does not. He said he installed successfully through Manger bb and under applications list in my storm bb says that the application is installed and running. Click on the show all button with records, he could be in and nothing do not know what is happening?

    I just thought about it! what I was trying to run was only the expansion pack I'd get emobile basic application, and then merge the plugin with it. EMOBILE is an application that can give later in the news, weather and stock prices as well you can use you as a personal organizer.

    Thanks to Jsanders you have been very helpful and I really enjoyed thanks to at least try!

  • BlackBerry smartphones my buttons do not work:(juste le défilement est (Curve 8520))

    My buttons were first doing funny things with the letter "L" and "M" and press "del" now none of my buttons work @ all, just my scroller is

    (He has not been exposed to the water)

    I can't do anything more can't even respond to calls, read the msgs or get info on my device

    If there is someone out there someone Pleeeeease help #crying

    But there is no need to have been exposed only to the water to ruin your keyboard.

    Even sitting on a countertop bath during a hot steamy shower or bath can cause problems with keyboard and trackball up to this JUST-withered. Really, it is more common than you think.
    1 the battery immediately! Do not turn on your BlackBerry device.
    2. allow the device to dry in a warm, dry place for 3 to 5 days * (see below)
    3. DO NOT "check it every day" by placing the battery in. Leave what would to dry completely. It takes time. Replacing the battery to check it can damage only (humidity + power = disaster).
    4. If the unit is hot after the drying period, let it cool to room temperature before placing the battery in the.

    Suggestions on your BlackBerry in a warm dry place (open, with battery):
    * Place the BB in a container of rice uncooked dry, and then you can also place it in one of the locations mentioned below.
    * On top of any heat dry emitting electronic components: TV or CRT, LCD, TV cable box / Satellite or plasma monitor
    * On the dashboard of your car on a day sunny

    All of a sudden today my BB wil not play Youtube videos.

    Hello

    Welcome to the blackberry family

    Friend to be able to play the video in your device, we recommend you to be connected to a wifi network

    Always recommended to use the WiFi for you to play the video you want to see a video and you use just your data plan...

    I recommend also to restart your blackberry, if you do not receive the busy message for a video
