Blackberry 8830 - Does not show Unlocking Window

I have the BB8830 WE, Verizon, bought second hand.
I bought it expressly to unlock for use in Europe.  However, before I pay for an unlocking code, I think my phone may already be unlocked?  Or maybe hardlocked?  Not sure.
I've unlocked the Curve for AT&T before and am familiar with the steps.
When I go to the SIM card menu (under Adv options), it allows me to type in MEPD - a menu pops up.
However, after that, when I type the following command: MEPE, nothing pops up for me to enter unlocking code.
I've tried it every which way - pressing ALT, pressing shift, with and without SIM.  The connection is always turned off when I do it.  Am I missing something?
Under the SIM menu (after I enter MEPD), all the items read "UNKNOWN".  It does not say "active" or "inactive".
Does that mean it is unlocked already?  Or maybe unfortunately Hard locked?
Does anyone have any information regarding this?

Once those ten attempts have been expended, the device can ONLY be unlocked by the factory, by sending the device to RIM for work, at your expense.

  • My ipod touch 4g does not show in Windows 7 or itunes.  I've removed and reinstalled itunes, stopped and started apple mobile services and changed out cables.  Ipod is charging when connected.  I've also done a complete rollback to factory defaults.

    My ipod touch 4g does not show in Windows 7 or itunes, I've removed and reinstalled Itunes.  I've done a factory default, and I've changed out cables. The ipod shows connected but does not show.

    Did you remove and reinstall all the Apple software by:

  • Blackberry Classic does not show read in outlook when read on device for emails

    The issue is that when an email is read on blackberry it does not show read on outlook on laptop and vice versa. Any ideas?

    Need to know what type of mail server you are using. If it is Outlook on Exchange then they both will sync up, ie both show read when opened. If you are using POP email then it will not sync, you will need to open your mail on both to show as read. This is not a BB issue, it;s the nature of the beast with any phone. Now if your email provider supports IMAP,then set your BB up that way and it will synce so all mailboxes look the same.

  • MacBook Pro late 2013 does not show login window after waking from sleep

    MacBook Pro late 2013 does not always prompt for login, but opens directly to desktop, even though security settings are setup to prompt for password after 5 minutes. Up to now, this only has happened on battery, machine goes to sleep or lid is closed, 10 minutes pass, lid is opened and desktop is shown instead of lock screen. Console shows, that the machine was actually sleeping (10 min no log entries) and also does not show any error in regards to login window.
    This behaviour occurs randomly and I could not track down any root cause/behaviour, yet. Sometimes everything behaves as it should.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Count me in, I have the same issue, and from what I read here, it looks like a Yosemite/SSD related issue ?
    I'm not 100% sure if it started when I put a SSD in my old iMac 2009 (as a fusion drive) or if that's after that when I upgraded to Yosemite...
    I did disable auto poweroff like suggested in another thread : Mac freeze during the night sleep.
    sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0
    We'll see if it helps.
    It happens toughly a couple of times a week.

  • Face Time for mac does not show contacts window or allow me to sign in

    My Facetime for Mac launches but does not show me my Contacts sidebar or allow me to 'Sign In'. Preferences is grayed out as well.
    It works under a new user account (System Preferences > Accounts). I added a contact into the blank address book to test it out. I'm troubleshooting it right now to get it to work under my account, I think it has something to do with not fully accessing the keychain.
    The tell-tell sign for me is when I launch FaceTime for Mac the preview window does not show immediately. I have to click on the app a second time for the window to appear. This does not happen under the new account
    I have already:
    - Restarted
    - Removed preferences and Caches
    - Re-installed Face Time
    - Repaired and reset keychains
    - Signed in under a different MobileMe account in System Preferences
    Any other suggestions

    SOLVED !!
    After many, many more steps and close to total ruin of my MobileMe sync structure, I have the found the hidden files to remove that solved my problem.

    ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist temp
    ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist .6Va7JFn [+these letters may be than different yours+]
    Logged out, then back in again
    When I launched Facetime it worked exactly as it does on my test user account.
    here are the terminal commands to try for your solution
    cd ~/Library/Preferences/
    ls -A [+To get the letters for the third file+]
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist\ temp
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist\ .[+your letters+]

  • IMac does not show open windows in Mission Control

    Ever since I installed Mountain Lion on my 2008 iMac 24", I've had a problem in Mission Control where the Desktop that the OS boots into will not show a preview of any windows open in that desktop. I have a new 2012 MacBook Air that does not have this problem. I thought the 10.8.1 update might fix it but no luck. Originally, I upgraded from Snow Leopard but eventually did a clean install and manually restored documents so that all the preferences/system files would be fresh, but still no luck.
    A screenshot of what I mean is attached. I have FF open in desktop 1, but it does not show at the top, whereas all other desktops show window previews.
    Has anyone else had this problem and have you managed to fix it?

    I dont use the Trackpad, just a mouse. Moments after I typed it, the answer was suggested already:
    CTRL+Mission Control button does exactly what I want.
    Is it possible to reconfigure this shortcut to the Snow Leopard way? (Pushing and holding the mouse button on an app in the dock for the same results)
    Thanks,

  • IPAD connected via USB does not show in Windows

    PC Specs : HP ProBook Windows 7 Professional 64 SP1 32 bit 4GB RAM 320GB HDD, Kaspersky ES 10.
    I have a client with an iPhone which he connects to his laptop via the iPhone USB cable. He used to copy pictures from the device onto his laptop. Today that does not want to work any more for some reason. If he connects it, it simply does not even detect in
    Windows. It doesn't even charge ! Before Windows, in the BIOS , there it charges. In Windows, in the device manager it does not even show anywhere. Also, it does make a one-time-connected-system-sound, when it is plugged in but that's all. In device manager,
    there is no alert, no exclamation or error.
    What was tried so far :
    1.) Disabling anti-virus.
    2.) Removing Upper Filter in HKLM/S/CCS/C/Class/[ID] for USB devices of Kaspersky driver association.
    3.) Testing the iPad and the USB cable on other machines : Cable works fine.
    What I still need to try :
    1.) Installing Apple Mobile Device Drivers
    What I do not want to do :
    1.) Re-install Windows
    2.) System Restore (restore points are very old, so unit will use many settings and programs if I do a restore).
    What else might I try to get this working ?

    Thanks for the responses !
    @Milos Puchta :
    No things I can see regarding the issue in the Event Logs. Updates were installed on the 15/08/2014... Maybe you can tell me which ones were problematic so I can see if they are installed (There are a lot). Maybe one of them was the culprit with other people
    ... a known update that was known to cause this
    @SenneVL :
    The USB are working perfectly. I tested my own USB drive, a USB hard drive, mouse etc and they work wonderful without issues. I must note that some or all of them also have the Upper filter installed. I installed ITunes (which comes with Apple Mobile Device
    Driver) and confirmed the service is running. I will post on the Apple Forums too... when I do get time.
    I checked with a resource monitor. If I connect the iPhone via USB, it throws out this (amongst million others) :

  • Command-tab does not show minimized window

    Hello, use command-tab to cycle through all the open apps, and I stop on one that I want to display. However, if that app is minimized, nothing happens. Not too convenient. Is there a way to automatically show the minimized window when I select it w/ command-tab? (this is how windows works and I prefer it this way)
    thanks

    Greetings from a System Leopard user.
    I've not yet upgraded to System Snow Leopard, but I'm running across unbelievable messages and applications that are required to allow CMD+Tab to work right under System Snow Leoperd. Is this a big joke or what?
    There are at least 5 $hareware/commercial (but not public domain) apps that are required to restore the use of CMD+Tab for System Snow Leopard users.
    Using System Leopard, CMD+Tab works perfectly. But reading various messages threads it looks like Apple programmers have disallowed CMD+Tab to work properly in System Snow Leopard. Why?
    Any Apple Employee, anywhere:
    If this is all true, that CMD+Tab has turned into a convoluted mess, then why have Apple engineers disallowed normal use of CMD+Tab?
    If this is true about CMD+Tab, is it because Microsoft Vista programmers sneaked onto the property and diddled with the System Snow Leopard source code?
    Apple employee, the most acceptable reason for not upgrading to System Snow Leopard is software application compatibility, but if global functions are intentionally convoluted in System Snow Leopard, please explain the Apple decision process vis a vis CMD+Tab, and the reasons this condition has been allowed to fester.
    Thanks much!

  • PowerBook 17" 1GB 1,6 GHz G4 does not show logging window

    I have a problem, and it's strange.
    I can access the PB with FireWire, start another mac via FireWire from the installed MacOS X (10.4.1 after setup) without any problem.
    Verbose mode and single user mode as the open Firmware is still possible.
    Reset the paramter rams and the vram... no change.
    Boot from CD comes with the MacOs installer mode, if a use the MacOS Tiger DVD for startup.
    But booting from the internal, fresh setup harddisk will lead to a MacOS splash screen on the blue background, were in the window the blue progress bar comes from left to right.
    This progress bar moves about one fifth of the lenght, get stuck and the system freezes...
    Anybody a clue, what might help?
    Anything, I can try in single user mode?
    The PB came from a customer, and someone tried to delete it. He removed the harddisk and put that into a harddisk erease tower to delete all data... that's what he claimed.... and that's it. I am able to partitioning the harddisk and set it up, but I am unable to boot from the harddisk the PB. I can boot another mac via firewire from the harddisk, but not the PB itself...
    Now I am stcuk.... any guess would be helpfull.

    Hello Greg, hello Jim,
    I was a week on autumn vacations, so I had plenty of time. I was trying to do.
    I reboot from the original Tiger DVD, used Disk Utility from the install DVD and overwrote the harddisk 7 Times with zero. I did no partitioning, but renamed the disk and start setup.
    Setup runs, as ever, with now failure. Reboot, and the system hangs....
    I tried Apples Hardware Test, but the test cannot repair the harddisk, because of a failure message poping up, that a subsystem process cannot be executed, and the repair failed.
    So I do not realy think, that the harddisk has an error, it seems different, because on a harddisk error, a format with zero would not perform that well, as the installation would not run that smooth...
    I have done now serveral installtions tries, but all end up with the blue progress bar in the Mac OS X screen hanging at about a quarter of lenght and doing nothing further.... even if I wait for more than 12 hours...
    I never have seen such a thing before.
    Hello Steffen.
    I do not really see a question in your new info, but, based on the totality of both your posts, my two guesses are as follows:
    (1) This disk drive is either faulty or connected improperly. Alternatively, it seems possible to me that it is an incompatible drive that has been installed in this Mac.
    If I could not find a way to tell whether one of these conditions exist, I would test by replacing this drive with a known working drive that is known to be compatible with the PowerBook.
    If I did not have access to a working, compatible drive, I would ask an Apple Service Technician to fix the problem.
    (2) If this drive is compatible with this PowerBook, and if it really "can boot another mac via firewire from the harddisk" after OS X has been installed, there must be something wrong with the PowerBook's connections or other hardware.
    I would test this by installing the problem hard drive in a different PowerBook 17" 1GB 1,6 GHz G4, to see if it works there. If so, you know the problem is with the PB rather than the drive itself.
    If the problem is with the PowerBook hardware, unless I could troubleshoot and repair the problem, I would ask an Apple Service Technician for an estimate of the cost to correct the problem before undertaking repairs. It is possible that this will be a costly fix.
    (3) Please let us know what happens. We will watch for your status update.
