Hi frankkonieczny
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
Device PIN are unique , I think you are refering to Device password that you have set on your device,you are correct it will erase all data if you fail on your last attempt. Don't know if you already tried you last attempt  if not then please try to  recall the password that you have set on that device because there is no other way to retrive the password or to stop the wipe function after your last attempt. I think you might have a mixture of different characters in your password,and you are not able to properly enter those on the BlackBerry  keyboard. For example , if your password is
frank123
And you enter  f > r >a >n > k >  alt > 1>2>3
 the actual result will be
frank1er
You must enter
f > r  >  a  >n > k >  alt > 1 > alt > 2 > alt > 3
 to get frank123 on your device.
So, while on the BlackBerry  keyboard you think you are typing frank123, you are actually typing frank1er . Please try it again and make sure what you are typing .

  • Password Lockout Problem! Curve 8530

    Hello,
    I´ve entered my own pasword to unlock my phone incorrectly too many times and now it says "Last Attempt! Information will be erased on failure!".  I´m afraid that I will enter it wrong again and that everythig will be deleted.  How can I fix this? By the way, I think that I might have set the password wrong and that is why I cannot get it to unlock.
    I have seen several posts about people having similar problems, but none of the solutions fit my problem.  For example, some people say that the keyboard might have been set on caps or on the symbols.  Others say that you have a couple more attempts because the system gives you up to 10 chances.  But for some reason mine was set only to 5.  So now I only have one last chance to get it right.
    Please help! It is greatly appreciated!

    Hello Roxanne
    Welcome to the Community
    I understand your situation but there is no way for us to override the password. Just to be sure, if the keypad is on CAP there will be a 'aA' symbol of the upper right and if it's in ALT there will be 'alt' on it. Please make sure to type the right password as it will do a Security Wipe and nothing can be restored unless you have a Backup file.
    Good luck

  • My computer has crushed so i have to download I tunes again,and maybe all my information will be lost.but i had I cloud and last time when i used to i tunes they have asked me to do I cloud so i did,so now when i will again setup my computer and I tunes

    my computer has crushed so i have to download I tunes again,and maybe all my information will be lost.but i had I cloud and last time when i used to i tunes they have asked me to do I cloud so i did,so now when i will again setup my computer and I tunes will i get all my Contacts and Inofrmations cause i had i have an account on I cloud

    If you used icloud for your contacts and calendar then you should have no problem. They will all come back on the phone once you put the icloud user name and password in. Itunes does not store the contact information except in a backup file and if you were backing up using icloud you can use that backup to restore with.

  • Curve 8530 Has Stopped Responding During Wipe - I'm In Deep Trouble!

    Hi Gang,
    I'm in a bit of a jam and hopefully someone here can assist. I've searched the forum for an answer but couldn't locate one.
    I have a Blackberry Curve 8530 and it's been experiencing some freezing from time to time.
    Model:  BlackBerry Curve 8530
    Carrier:  Koodo Mobile (Canada)
    Software Version:  5.0 Bundle 1108
    I decided tonight to backup all of my data and do a "Security Wipe" from the options menu.
    I selected both options, typed "blackberry" and clicked "wipe".
    I currently have the popup on my screen that says:
    "Erasing Information...
    Warning: Do not pull the battery out until erasing is complete."
    On top of this popup is the dreaded little Blackberry clock with the spinning hand going around and around (like an hourglass would on a PC when it's "thinking").
     It's been like this for almost two hours now and doesn't appear to be responding any longer.
    The clock will occasionally disappear, only to re-appear a minute later.
    I'm scared to pull the battery because it warns not to on the popup. I've tried to power it off with the Power Button but to no avail. No buttons do anything.
    What should I do? I've never had an issue like this and I'm worried that I'll be in for a lot of headaches if I pull the battery.
    Can anyone offer any advice or assistance? Have you run into this issue before? What happens if I pull the battery contrary to their warning not to? 
    I'm kind between a rock and a hard place...and it's 2:45AM here on the East Coast of Canada...want to try to get this fixed before I go to bed if anyone is awake and reading this.
    Many, Many Thanks In Advance,
    Jeff

  • Curve 8530 SMS Text Problems

    My Curve 8530 will receive and send SMS texts ok for a while.  Then, for no reason, I cannot click on an sms and open it.  It will not show the previous texts.  I cannot open the txt to make a reply.  I took this to Verizon, he checked it and said there was definitely a problem, of course didn't have another phone, so ordered me one.  A few days later I got a new (or probably refurbished) 8530.  It's doing the same thing.  So this is either a defect in the phone line or in the software for SMS text messages.  I am very disappointed with Blackberry.  I have had several of their phones, try to keep up with the newest technology even though it always costs me hundredes of dollars for the phones.  I think this will be my last.  If I cannot get this problem resoloved, I am switching to AT&T.

    I got two of these phones and they both are doing it. I do a significant amount of work related texting on my main line 8530... I have to pull the battery anywhere from 5 to 10 times per day. I have contacted Verizon and I'm sending these 8530s back and replacing them with what I had before; the MUCH better, more professional and stable 8330.
    I used my 8330 non-stop for 3 years. Never once had a problem with the trackball (Verizon told me the 8530 fixed the trackball problem---???)... Additionally, in the 3 years of using my 8330 non-stop, I may have had to pull the battery twice, from a lock up. Both times it was when I was actively using Internet, teathered to my laptop and an incoming call came. When I'd answer it, the call would work and when I'd hang up, the phone would crash...
    The 8330 sold me on the Blackberry OS... The 8530 acts more like a Windows OS, IMHO.
    A very dissatisfying experience.

  • Curve 8530 no longer works

    My Curve 8530 decided to overheat and kill the hardware on my phone. I can replace the battery, but it immediately dies.
    I walk into US Cellular to their service center to see whats up, I am told this is an issue that has created headaches for many people, yet I didn't know about it. Apparently, I was supposed to know about the SOFTWARE UPDATE via FACEBOOK. That software update was supposed to fix this hardware update.
    So, since this update was only known to the public via facebook, many people are losing their phones and having to turn around and buy a new or a used phone. I will have to do the same, but it won't be a Blackberry. Horrible customer service on both ends. I should have known about the issue either by bill, or phone call. A phone call is apparently illegal but yet they can call me telling me they updated my voice mail.
    See ya RIM - I had a good 13 months, but if you can't create a product to last longer than a 2 year contract. You just aren't good enough. STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT.
    And you wonder why you have fallen out of the runnings for the best smartphone as of late.

    Hey Browndot513,
    In this case we can try to reload the software on the BlackBerry smartphone to make sure it is running the latest version and there are no issues with the OS.
    Here is how to backup your BlackBerry smartphone http://bbry.lv/oPVWXc
    Once you have backed up your BlackBerry smartphone please follow the link below to complete a clean reload of the BlackBerry smartphone software.
    Link: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB03621
    Once completed test it and proceed with selective restore, here is how to restore http://bbry.lv/qgQxLo

  • Can't watch any video on my Curve 8530!

    I've looked around recently to try to find an answer to why my BlackBerry Curve 8530 will not play videos, and nothing I've read seems to work. When try to play a YouTube video, one of the following 3 errors occurs:
    1) "The device media processor is busy."
    2) "An error has occured attempting to play media."
    3) The screen changes from different shades of black, and no media plays.
    I have no idea what is going on, and would like any advice that could be given!
    Thank you for your time!

    I had the same problem.. they cure was to back up all data and 3rd party applications FIRST!
    then i did a System wipe and reinstalled everything.. now i can watch all video from sites such as youtube etc without a hitch.
    it is extreme but it was the only thing that worked for me.. there is information out there on backing up the 3rd party apps using BB manager/desktop
    do your research before you do this

  • Help with erasing and syncing please - what will be erased?

    I have somehow created a 2nd itunes account and my iphone won't sync with the first one. It is syncing with the 2nd one however I cannot add new music - if I try on the 2nd one I get a message asking if I want to erase this iphone and sync with this itunes library.  Below this is a warning that erasing and syncing will replace the contenst of this iphone with the contents of this itunes library.  What exactly will be erased?  If it's just the music and photos then I won't mind - my phone is new and not got much on it.  However I don't want to lose all my apps and contacts information.  I know I can back it all up but I am not very knowledgable about all this - I am new to itunes and iphones just last month!  Any advice gratefully recieved - thank-you! 

    OK so its been a LONG time since messing with this but now I have to get it done. I have tried all this that is stated in this thread and I can do what I am looking for IF I start a new file, draw a few shapes, apply the pathfinder divide.
    However, with this file I am working with I can not figure out why I cant get it to work.
    Again, what i am trying to do is have a LOT of lines crossing over the edges of the templates that are the shapes in my AI file. Think 80's style Eddie Van Halen guitar. They're going to be graphic for my sons motorcycle for his birthday.
    I was trying to simply use the rectangle tool to draw various black and white lines and then somehow cut the overhangs off my templates.
    Very frustrating that I cant figure out what I am doing wrong!! Especially since I am fairly proficient in After Effects, Premiere, and Photoshop. Trying to learn Illustrator though!!
    By the way using CS3
    Thanks for anyone that can help me!!!

  • Curve 8530 not receiving emails from contacts

    Hi, about a week ago, my Curve stopped receiving emails from people in my contacts list.  I will still get them from companies that I've placed orders with in the past, as well as a notification that someone replied to a post I made on here earlier this week, but anyone in my address book isn't getting through to the phone, but they're in the inbox on Yahoo!  I ran the diagnostic check that someone suggested, and the email address said "no" after it for connected.  I don't know how to fix this.  I've had the phone since May and never had an issue until now.  I've spent over an hour on the phone with Verizon trying to solve it and they couldn't figure it out.  I've deleted the account & added it back and I receive the email telling me it's registered, but no more.  Also, when I go into "Folder Reconciliation" nothing is checked off, and I don't know how to do it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated for me.  Thank you.

    5) Ran diagnostic of mobile network. All "Yes" except for "Connected to: [OWA account] : No"
    1-5 is all the troubleshooting I've found for the Curve 8530 and nothing has helped. Please help!
    I would suggest that you do ALL of the above again.
    If your service is not restored, you really need to call Verizon tech support and ask for your issue to be escalated to RIM level tech support.

  • Using pop e-mails with BB curve 8530

    Hello I need a little help. Had a BB in the past but never needed to use it with my 4 pop e-mail accounts. Just switched from HTC Snap to a new BB curve 8530 and it does not seem to do what I need it to. On the snap it would check for new messages from all 4 pop accounts hourly and when doing so any new unread messages on the pop server would go to the snap phone and any deletions that were made on the pop server were removed from the snap phone also. I am sure BB has a way to do this but I am not seeing where or how to set this up. So far it seems I have to delete it on my BB to delete it off both but it will not take deletions from the pop and remove them from the BB. Please help, I have so many e-mails I have to manage and it is making me want to go back to the Snap since this is causing a lot more work.
    Also, is it normal for PDF files to take a while to load and become clear to view as e-mail attachments? I seem to be waiting a while in comparison to the snap I had prior.
    Much thanks!!!

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Concerning reconciliation between server and the BB, that will be governed by this KB. In nearly all cases, it sounds like you should be able to have 2-way reconciliation of deleted items...the KB includes a link to another article that discusses how to properly configure for that.
    Concerning how long it takes to open and render an attachment, your prior device was likely downloading the entire attachment at the time it downloaded the email. BB's do not retrieve the attachment until you request it, so you must wait while it performs that download. I would guess that the actual time it takes either device to obtain the attachment is the same -- it's just that with the BB you are there watching it and therefore noticing it.
    Best!

  • What all information will i loose if I sync iPhone with another computer?

    Hey,
    Just wanted to understand what all information will i loose if i sync my iphone with another computer?
    will i loose my contacts and messages?
    Thanks
    Cheers
    Divesh

    Syncing your iPhone with iTunes on another computer will not erase all data on your iPhone. SMS/MMS will not be touched, photos/video in your iPhone's Camera Roll, the same for notes, email accounts, and iPhone settings.
    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first with a warning message provided indicating this will happen.
    You can sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on multiple computers.
    You can transfer iTunes content and photos from one computer along with syncing contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications.
    When connecting your iPhone to iTunes on another computer, you will be provided a warning message that your iPhone has been synced with iTunes on another computer. If you don't select to transfer any iTunes content or photos from another computer, no iTunes content and photos that were transferred from a different computer will be erased from your iPhone. If you select to sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks only with the supported applications on another computer, only this data will be touched on your iPhone.

    Hey tanyatown,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Your username for the BlackBerry® Internet Service would not be your email address.  If you forget what the username is, you can contact your network service provider for further assistance to get you logged in to setup your email accounts.
    Let me know if you have any more questions.

  • Blackberry Curve 8530 Virgin Mobile US Problems Fixed

    There seems to be runtime instabilities to certain newer Blackberry Bundled OS updates. After much trouble running newer apps and updates with my current Virgin Mobile US Blackberry 8530 Curve. Most of which was occured a while after I updated the OS on my Curve 8530 from 5.0.0 bundle 1013 to 5.0.0 bundle 1675. Finally sick of having one updated paid app after another fail I started to contact the support for the paid apps and one in China wrote back I probably updated to an unstable OS version. Anyhow following downgrade instrucions at http://m.crackberry.com/how-downgrade-your-blackbe​rrys-operating-system I returned my curve to bundle 1013. The apps now seemingly all work. So I figured this was important to post. If you upgraded your OS and are having problems (even a while after) you may wish to downgrade back to an earlier or even original OS.

    The antenna is located in the area under the lower bezel, beneath the keyboard.
    What all you need to remove... the back, the front, the bottom bezel.
    IF you're sure that replacing the antenna will fix it, are you?
