Can't disable my password

Hello, i'm new the board, I have the 8530 for sprint, I've recently upgraded to 5.0.0.654(1108).  When I did this I no longer have the ability to disable the password for my blackberry.  It's always enabled, it's grayed out.  This is my third blackberry and I haven't had anything like this happen to me before.
Also just some background, it's my personal cellphone not work, therefore I'm not using Enterprise, I'm not sure what could've cause this...any advice?

Haven't heard of that one before. The only way i know of resetting everything back to the defaults without being on a BES is to use jl cmdr or trying to run the resettofactory switch.
If you want to try the latter. first backup the data on your device using the Desktop Manager software. Then follow the steps in this KB article

  • Can I disable the password requirement to download applications from the app store?

    Recently, my Apple ID has become "locked" roughly twice a month for the last two months and it's been driving me insane. To try to remedy this issue, I finally changed my password -- after struggling to come up with a password that was "strong" I ended up with one that's more than 20 characters long and incredibly convoluted.
    This brings me to this question: is there a way to disable the App Store requiring a password to download apps? It was already a nuisance, but it's going to be wholly worse now that my password is Biblical in length.
    If there is an answer to either of these issues, that would be awesome! (Why does my Apple ID keep locking up twice a month when I type my password immaculately? Can I stop needing my password? I'm the only one using my iPhone).
    Thank you so much!

    Awesome. :|
    Thank you!

  • How can a disable the password required to login?

    I have a new Macbook Pro retina display.  I am the only user of the computer, and I would really like to be able to open and use my computer without being asked for my login password everytime.  I have searched this forum for the answer, but I am more confused now than before?  One of the answers says to simply go to "Security & Privacy" > General and simply uncheck the box in front of the line that says "require password ***** after sleep or screen saver begins".  They even show a screen shot clearly showing this box.  The problem is that on my Macbook Pro, when I go to this location, there is NO box in front of that line!  There is a small window where I can choose between "immediately - 1 hour", but that is it.  Am I doing something wrong?  Does anyone know how I can turn off this prompt for the login password?
    Thank you!

    Try this...
    System Preferences > Users and Groups
    Choose your username then click on "Log In Options" below
    Next, turn "Automatic login" to ON then supply the password to your account
    Then, in the "Security & Privacy" Section, make sure "Disable automatic login" is OFF

  • Help Greatly Appreciated - Can't disable password

    I recently obtained a new 8830 on eBay after my old one made it to the bottom of a river.
    I can't disable the password setting on the new device (small red padlock next to box), I can't turn on media card support ("off" w/the small red pad lock), etc.  I could find anything on this after a couple hours in tech support, and am at wits end.  How can I erase someone else's policies on the device?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Guess what? It wasn't new.
    It's a used device with a former BES IT Policy on the device requiring a password.
    On your 8830 , look at Options > Security > General Settings, and down to the bottom of that screen you will note a policy name, near the **servcies**.
    If you want to remove that policy, follow the instrucitons here:

    You can't disable the password.  If you could, what would be the point of having one?

    Please help!! I forgot my password and now i can't access to my iphone. How can i disable the "lost mode" and how can i fix this problem?

    You will need to restore your iPhone from the same computer that you most recently synced to.
    Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If you can't do the restore then you will need to try recovery mode.

  • How can we disable " XDB Requires a username and password"?

    Hello,
    I've just performed an Apex 4 installation on top of a DB 11.2.0.2.
    All is fine.
    No problem fine with FF, IE and Safari, but with Chrome I always have a pop up saying " The server XXXX: port at XDB requires a username and password".
    How can I disable that, or fix it definitively?
    Thanks
    Fred

    Sure.
    On my system Anonymous and XDB account were already unlocked and both used the same password.
    I simply executed the PL/SQL block that you can find here: http://www.apexexplorer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/XDB-Password-Issue.pdf
    I bounced the listener.
    Hope that help
