  Hmmm I have already try 10 times with the same ID and password, but it doesn't always work, so my conclusion that we can eliminate the chances of typing wrong.

  I agree that we can eliminate typing wrong, perhaps we can remove a modifier key? In these areas, it lets it now see clear text are you FORCED? And, if so, is this really what do you expect? Honestly, it's very common to think that we are typing something when in fact it is something else because of a modifier key that we weren't aware of.

  Ridwan says:

  now how about something wrong with the provider? the truth is I buy this from America and I think that it is always locked with verizon card only and I use another provider in Indonesia. How about that?

  If the BB remains locked to NPI, with any other SIM in it will not work... get it unlocked another SIM from VZW to use carriers.

  Best.

• Unable to connect to the parental control with existing Microsoft Account

  I can't connect to Windows Live Family Safety with my existing Microsoft Account.

  I enter the e-mail address and password and click the Sign In button, and then get an error message saying "the e-mail address or the password is incorrect."

  The e-mail and password are correct, then why can't connect? I used to be able to connect to OK.

  1. This happens on two different Windows 7 laptops. I rebooted, cleared history, etc., and this did not help.
  2. I checked the e-mail address and the password several times (case is correct, that shift caps lock is not on, etc.).
  3. My address e-mail/Microsoft account is not an address Outlook.com, Live.com or Hotmail.com - it's my own domain, something like<*** email="" address="" is="" removed="" for="" privacy="" ***="">
  4. The Microsoft Account works for all other applications and web sites on my computer Windows 7 mobile, phone Nokia Lumia 920, Lenovo ThinkPad 2 compressed (Win8).
  5. This Microsoft Account <*** email="" address="" is="" removed="" for="" privacy="" ***="">works very well for Office 365 Home Premium.

  Thank you

  And the solution is...

  Disable the verification of two steps in the security settings for information on live.com.

  The parental control client cannot authenticate because he cannot ask the authenticator application code. Can't Movie Maker or one of the other applications of Windows Essentials .

  Awareness in two steps of authentication must be added to the Windows Essentials applications.

• Cannot connect to the game using Microsoft account, password is incorrect, or account does not exist.

  I just installed Dirt 3 on my new computer, when you are prompted to log in to my Live account. I put in my info, then the code of the key to the game. She then returned and say my account does not exist or my password is incorrect. After trying twice more I came here.  It is the same account and password that I use here.

  I'll start from the beginning.

  Some time ago a friend bought a game for me (Dark Souls prepare to Die Edition) by Toys R us as a gift. I needed to connect with GFWL to save progress. I did, using my XBOX Live account. I played 40 hrs of this game, my PC is dead. It was during the summer 2014.

  Fast forward to now, I reactivated my Windows Live account and tried to install the game in my new computer. After that I set my account sign in problems (had to change my password three times until he acknowledged) the error message I now get it that the product key is registered to a different Windows Live account.

  There is no other windows Live ID someone else has access to my account STEAM or WINDOWS ACCT. To my knowledge none have been hacked. I was put through three individuals when I called them. Account, a kind of guys then sale of troubleshooting. After that wanted to sale onto me accounts that I hung up. No one knew that STEAM has been and has not yet recognize that GFWL is actually managed by Xbox apparently (have concluded that myself). I know GFWL is now active, BUT I'm always supposed to be able to access my game.

• Unable to connect to the network share after the Microsoft Account

  I am running Windows 8 Pro and if I setup with a local account, I can access my server to NetApp files very well. As soon as I switch to a Microsoft Account, I can't connect to file shares. I get "the specified server cannot perform the requested operation."

  How can I use my Microsoft Account and still access the network share?

  Also, I have a laptop running Windows 8, connected to the same network that can access the share file very well. I already tried a "system refresh" and complete a reinstall.

  Any suggestion?

  If you map a drive to the share and select Connect using different credentials and enter your local account information it works?

  You can map a drive by:

  1. Right-click on computer.
  2. Select the network drive mapping...

  This could be the result of malware, or it could be a mistake with service pack 2.

  Download, update and perform a quick scan with Malwarebytes. If there is no threat detected then you know that the issue is probably with sp2. Nevertheless, you need to update to sp3. Make sure that the system is also a free malware first.

• Satellite P200 - failed to connect to the Windows Services

  After starting Windows Vista on my Satellite P200, I received a message: failed to connect to any Windows Services.The event notification system file are not available.
  Use restricted to the mode of administration.

  No network supports either (wifi, Ethernet,...). At least I can use the PC in batch mode!
  Unable to retrieve a previous saved file system.

  I need to restore my Toshiba restore disk Win Vista?

  Do you offer a lighter solution?

  It's strange, but what you mean with batch mode?
  You can start in safe mode?

  I think the best way is to reinstall Windows with the recovery disk. It only takes a few minutes and then you have the new installation of Windows with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.
