Cannot reset BB ID password on my device

Hi, i followed the link you posted for the sticky http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-World/How-to-regain-access-to-your-BBID/td-p/25467... and I am still not having any luck.  I have reset my BB ID account and reset password/security question.  I can log on to BB through browser but when i try it on my device, i get an error saying "you can't sign in with a different blackberry ID on this device.  Sign in the original BB ID used on this device".  When i hit "forgot password" it lets me answer with my new security question but it will not recoqnize the new password.  Help.

This is the key...whatever you did, your BB now thinks that your BBID is no longer the same that is presently integrated to the BB device. The only way to rectify that is to WIPE the BB device, and then sign into your BBID account as part of the initial setup procedure. You will, of course, want to backup your device first.
Good luck!

  • Cannot reset PRAM/firmware password

    My Mac Pro 1.1 running 10.6.4 will not respond to start up commands. I cannot reset PRAM or use the "C" key to start up from the CD drive. I have not set a firmware password, when I opened Firmware Utility there was no password. What am I missing here? np

    Swapping an Nvidia for ATI in XP be sure to uninstall the device driver etc before you put the new graphic card in, though if you've used XP a bit you probably know.
    Even marginal FBDIMMs have been known to be cantankerous though if you have ruled everything down to the graphic card being the culprit.
    (2gb x 8) and restarted with one module at a time and the next to last of course was the one that created the blinking light. It has been going bad for some time in retrospect since the Mac is faster with 12 gb than it was with 16.
    Marginal RAM and not reporting full density (showing half for instance), and 4 x 4GB is the "ideal" way to get to 16GB on Mac Pro 1,1.
    One issue with marginal RAM even though it is ECC you can end up with corrupt files or file content (meaning it won't show up as a corrupt file, just the file or pref or cache contents are well, "garbage in / garbage out." And need to be replaced or restored from back prior to problem(s).
    Putting more/all of your hardware configuration in .sig helps. Whether you had 7300GT, 1st gen 8800GT, X1900, along with 8 x 2GB and anything else.

  • I cannot reset apple ID password because the email accounts (original and recovery) no longer exist.

    I have have lost my password for apple id and the email account it was under no longer exists, switched from Cox to Uverse so I cannot get the email to reset the password.  Help >

    If you can't get the password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (do you have a rescue email address on the account ?) then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the password reset (they should also be able to reset your security questions).
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • HELP cannot reset 'my account password'

    keep getting the same email to reset my password on the 'my account' option but email keeps asking for 'username' repeatedly and cannot get to the option to choose a new password

    The advisors have no choice in the matter, they are just pawns in the whole Apple SNAFU that's going on right now. Eventually, someone up top may come to their senses and then they'll be able to reset your IDs for you again.

  • Cannot reset blackberry app password.

    Hi,
    I was locked out of my account while trying to reset my password. I clicked the "forgot password" link, entered my secret question correctly.
    I followed the link to reset my password that was emailed to me.
    I then got a generic error saying there was a problem processing your request after trying to give it a new password. It didn't say that my new password was too short, or the confirmation didn't match or that my secret question was wrong. All it gave me was an error.

    Hi northnr,
    Try navigating to www.blackberry.com/blackberryid via PC and changing your password there or deleting and creating a new BlackBerry ID. Verify that you can login to your account via PC and then try logging in via App World.

  • Cannot reset user vmail password with Cisco Unified CM Administration

    We are using Cisco Unified CM Administration ver 7.1 with Cisco 7945 IP phones. I have a user who came to me saying that they could no longer access voice mail, getting invalid pin. Ichanged the pin with the Cisco Unified CM Administration which accepts the new pin no problem but when we try it from the phone it doesn't work. Any ideas... Thanks Don

    Hey Don,
    Well, that's no good
    There should be no correlation between resetting the user PIN
    and the forwarding to voicemail.
    Let's say that the user is @ DN/extension 5999.
    In CUCM admin go to;
    Device>Phone>Find List by Directory number> find 5999
    on the DN config page look at the Call Forward sections (all, no answer, busy)
    and make sure they are set to forward to VM (usually by using the VM checkbox)
    If you need to, have a look at a working phone/DN for comparison
    Cheers!

  • HT1212 ipod touch wont reset after forgetting password, wont recognize device

    I am trying to fix a friends Ipod after her daughter forgot the password. I have tried everything I saw online where to get it in recovery mode, etc and nothing works. It wont recognize it, it wont restore it, it wont do anything.
    Anybody have any ideas to erase everything and start from scratch this is frustrating.

    What happens when you try to restore?

  • HT1911 Cannot reset iTunes password

    I cannot reset my iTunes password.  If I select "email authentication" then no email arrives.  If I select "answer security questions" then it tells me that I have my own Birthday wrong. I have spent days on this and can't figure out where to get support and ther Apple guy I managed to get on the phone was worse than useless. 
    I somehow ended up with two iTunes accounts (one with a short user name and one with an email address) so I can log in on some of my devices but not others - hence I am able to post this under my email account.
    Argh - I am so frustrated by Apple security.
    Can anyone please help?
    Thankx,
    Hana

    Best to contact support now for a manual reset. Make sure to mention everything you did for faster resolution.

  • When trying to reset my login / password, text in red says not connected to internet please verify connection, when the macbook air IS connected to wifi.

    cannot reset forgotten login password.

    You don't need to be connected to the Internet to reset the password.
    Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities window appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen—not from any of the items in the OS X Utilities window.
    In the window that opens, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
    Select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected. You won't be able to do this if FileVault is active.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but the Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as the login password), there's no way to recover it.

  • HT204053 Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT KNOW it.  Thanks!

    Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT know it.  Thanks!  I've used my iTunes password for everything else Apple does and would like to use the same one for my iCloud.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    Also
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.

  • I reset my apple ID password and realized my e-mail address has been changed.  I cannot retrieve my password because I cannot get the email.  So I am stuck in a loop with the apple support page.  I cannot change my forgotten password or my email address?

    I lost my passwrod and my e-mail address has now changed.  On the support page I cannot reset my password without my old e-mail and I cannot change my e-mail address without my password.  Any thoughts?

    You apparently did not migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud before 1 August? In this case your MobileMe account has been permanently deleted and all its contents lost, as was announced over a year ago.
    Your signature says your Mac has 10.6.8; you cannot set up an iCloud account on that. However you can reactivate your @me.com address (though not retrieve its contents including any aliases) by going to Settings>iCloud on your iPhone (iOS5 required), signing in with your @me.com address and password, and enabling Mail in the list there.
    That done, you can set up Mail manually on Snow Leopard to access your iCloud email:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

  • TS2755 Cannot connect my I-Pad 1 to Comcast modem network with correct password. Other devices work fine.

    I cannot connect my Ipad to a Comcast modem network with the correct password. Other devices work fine.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
