Reformatted computer and cannot remember the password.

Hi all, recently my computer crashed and I had reformatted it.  Now I can't return to my original email I forgot the password.  Also, I don't remember which email address was used as a backup either.  Is there any other way I can get into my original email address?

  • BlackBerry software BlackBerry ID - old email address and cannot remember the password: phone backup requires BBID thus.

    I downloaded Blend and now I need a valid ID of BlackBerry.  I have a BlackBerry ID but the email address is an old work address that I use, because I quit this job.  Thus, I do not remember the email so I can't just change the attached email to the ID.

    I think I should do a swip security but before I do I want to save my phone so I don't lose any of my applications and other information.

    To make a back-up, I need to use the link and who also uses BlackBerry ID.

    Any suggestions on what to do?

    Thank you

    Hello

    First of all, ignore the mixture for now... get your device/BBID straightened first. Please see this post "sticky" for useful information about your situation BBID:

    I hope that this information will be useful to you. Given what you describe, it is very likely that you will have to give up your BBID, WIPE your device and start over again with a brand new BBID (and this time, beware of high security and not lose track of the related powers / email accounts).

    In what concerns the backup/restore association problem and it's the BBID to post a link, complete documentation of your configuration (e-mail accounts, configurations, etc.) will allow you to manually reconfigure later, and which would then be re - synchronize your accounts/data residing on servers somewhere. If you have only been store contacts/calendar/etc. on the device itself... Well, there is indeed a problem. I'm not sure that there is a way to overcome this, given the tie in the LINK to a backup file to a BBID. Maybe you can find a version older link that does not have this way of connection (and no, I do not know what version to recommend or where to find it).

    See you soon and good luck!

  • 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.

  • iPod classic you want to restore to the factory cannot remember the password

    I have two iPod classic I want to recycle. I don't remember the password that is associated with one of them. When I connect to iTunes and click on restore option, it asks for a password that I don't remember.

    Any suggestions for me?

    Thanks in advance!

    A classic iPod has an iTunes password not perform a restore.  I think he asks your password for the Mac admin user account.  Enter the password that you enter normally when you allow changes on your Mac, like installing new software.

  • I can't update Firefox, my computer is claiming that I need permission admin (everything else to date very well) I am the admin for this computer and I have the password. Any ideas?

    I can't update Firefox, I tried to disable Firewall etc. My computer says I need permission admin to update Firefox, even if I am the owner and the administrator of this computer. There are updates available and know the password for this computer. It all started when I installed the Noscript tool (that I tried to disable them with the same results)

    This has happened

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Mac_OS_X

    If you have Mac OS X 10.5 or newer then follow these steps:
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html

  • Cannot remember the password restriction or reset iPhone

    Hello

    I recently asked my son to take off / change the restrictions on his iPhone, since these restrictions are younger. When I tried to enter the password, he said it was wrong.  I tried the passwords I most often use / used and none of them work. Is there a way to recover the password? I googled this topic and found out that you would have completely reset the iPhone, but because of games there, my son does not discount to zero, we cannot do this. Are there other options?

    Thank you.

    Hi AnOGName,

    Good to hear your son is beyond the need for restrictions on his iPhone.  It looks like you have found the answer to your question about the code of Restrictions, however.

    On the restrictions (parental control) on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch - Apple Support

    If you lose or forget your password restriction, you must erase your device and then put it up as a new device to remove the restriction password. Restore the device by using a backup does not delete the access code.

    I would certainly exhausted all possible combinations of password first.

    If you need to clear, don't forget, you can download your past - purchases Support Apple

    Best regards.

  • BluRay BDPS3100 network connection problem and cannot remember the last position a DVD was finally play

    Third time, it will not make a network connection. Last two times, I called Sony about the probplem of Youtube, it turns out that it was a Sony problem and a week later, I did a udate software and it fixed the problem. Now for the third time, the device does not connect. Check all the settings and looks good. ??????

    And finally, the unit does not remember where the last stop on a DVD has been in the Middle film.

    Seems that it was poorly designed. I got my 5 years old and it worked perfectly.

    Maybe time to consider other products. Any suggestions?

  • Failure of Hotmail - compromised account and cannot reset the password. The server is down, and the moderators are not admit it?

    DEAR MODERATOR, PLEASE READ THIS EMAIL CAREFULLY, IN ORDER TO AVOID THAT SUGGESTS A SOLUTION, I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES.

    I tried for five days to access my hotmail without success. Wednesday, December 14 I accessed my account the morning normally. However, in the afternoon, I found that my account has been blocked, apparently due to receive a large amount of spam. I followed the link in the window that asked me to provide a mobile number, so a code can be sent to me, and I would then be able to unlock the account. I provide my number, but received no codes for this date.

    I then entered the hotmail Help Center and asked a question asking for my account to be unblocked. I got a response the next day, saying the account was then unblocked and I could use it normally. However, I was unpleasantly surprised to discover that I couldn't open my hotmail, my password was not recognized. I tried to reset my password, but if you follow a link sent to an alternative email, every time since Thursday, the result was a page saying:

    There is a temporary problem

    There is a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to receive this message, try again later.

    I tried to reset my password more than 10 times in the last four days and nothing. I tried different browsers, tried to optimize the browsers, tried five different computers - AND NOTHING.

    I reported this problem on several occasions in the Help Center, but I got repetitive suggestions or 'solutions' that didn't work. Whenever I post an entry in my open question, I get the same suggestions over and over again. I realized that I'm only receive automated messages, and that no one really looking to my problem to offer assistance of effetive.

    Can anyone help me please with a decent and effective action?

    S ' Please don't ask if I tried different browsers, if I optimized browsers or if I tried other computers. I tried all of these options.

    S ' Please don't tell me reset the password. Your system says "there is a temporary problem" every time it has been 4 days, so it is not temporary, of course.

    -I would like someone to reset my password for me and send me a link to open my email. I have to open my email! I used it for over 14 years now, and this has never happened before!

    Please do not ignore this. Read it carefully and help me!

    Moreover, the account in question is the * address email is removed from the privacy *.
