DEVICE IS LOCKED SCREEN HAS MOVED

Really minor point, but it is bugging me...I recently updated the software on my blackberry 9780 after being instructed to do so when i connected it to desktop manager.
Now when my phone times out and requires a password, I need to scroll down to unlock to access the input bar.
Previously if i pressed enter it would automatically get me there.
I know this is minor, but appears to be because when i password lock my screent eh homescreen grows a little and the Device is Locked display has a tiny arrow indicatng there is more info below(which there is not).
I have tried changing the home screen page...restored my berry to its pre-update mode and still nothing...grrr
Not the biggest problem anyone has had but i would appreciate some help anyway!

hi, i have just bought a blackberry bold 9780 secondhand on ebay, it has been fully refurbished, i set a password on it and have unlocked it since but then this morning i tried and it is not letting me in. i am on attempt 6 of 10 and have heared it will wipe all my data, i don't mind if it does because i haven't put much on it but will i be able to start a fresh and use it again if i use the rest up, i don't intend on spending any money having it specially unlocked
If you fail 10 times, it is exactly intended to return the device to "out of the box" condition. Refer:
Article ID: KB16307 Actions performed by the BlackBerry smartphone during the removal of stored user and application data
Article ID: KB10385 Multiple attempts to type in a password prompts a warning that data will be wiped from the BlackBerry smartphone
However, since this is 2nd hand, also refer:
Article ID: KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after buying a previously owned BlackBerry smartphone
If all Seller steps were not conducted by the actual owner of record with their previous carrier, then you may be unable to fully use the device with your carrier.
Good luck!

  • My Ipod lock screen has disappeared!

    My iPod lock screen has disappeared and says the iPod is disabled. I had a passcode and I have tried turning it on and off and when I plug it into iTunes it says I need to unlock the iPod first! But the passcode 'slide to unlock' bar is gone!
    HELP!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • After updating to iOS5, browsing (playing) music on the lock screen has gotten really slow, has anyone else had this problem?

    As the title states, browsing music while playing it on the lock screen has really slowed down, while it used to zap to another song quite instantly it now takes about one, sometimes two seconds to do so. Did iOS 5 cause this? Will it be fixed? Any other explenations?

    I rarely record automation, and when I do I never do a second pass (usually hand draw automation in) but I have had problems with Logic 7 no longer playing back automation. I've been told its fixed in Logic 8, but in the mean time here is a work around.
    Select the region where the automation is (if there is no region, create one using the pencil tool and expand it to cover all automation) and go OPTIONS menu -> TRACK AUTOMATION -> "Move current track data to region data." Now everything should play back as expected. If you want to edit the data, simply select "move current region data to track data" and edit away.
    For some reason, Logic 7 will sometimes stop reading track automation data, but I have yet to have it stop reading region automation. This is a bug, and according to other users, has been fixed in Logic 8. Hope this helps until we eventually upgrade

  • How can I quit my iPhoto screen that as crashed and locked on. The locked screen has no iPhoto file list on the left and the part of the screen that should have uploaded photos is blank except for the rotating download icon in the centre of screen. Help?I

    My SD card reader has caused my iPhoto screen to be locked with no list of files on the lefthand side and a blank main photo area apart from the rotating download icon operating in the centre of the photo part of the screen.
    I have tried to quit iphoto but when I restart it the same locked screen appears.
    I believe I caused this problem when I removed my SD device without first ejecting it when the blank screen appeared without downloading my new photos.
    Can anyone help a 66 year old computer illiterate fool ?.
    Regards

    Use Force Quit (under the Apple menu at the top) to close iPhoto.  Then try opening it again.  If it locks up again force quit and try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists.
    If the problem does not persist try the following: make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and  apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If the problem persists in the test library do the following:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • HT4097 Ipad screen has  moving lines on it and is unresponsive

    I have the 3rd generation Ipad with iOS 6 on it. I was using it yesterday when i closed my case, and left it for about 10 minuets. When i came back and opened my case, the screen was completley messed up! It has moving lines all over the screen that are a mixture of white, and grey. then it has an even darker moving pixel going across top top of my Ipad, about one inch from the top to be exact. the Ipad will lock and unlock using the top button, but thats all it does. The ipad will also not power off easily. The only thing close to it turing off was when i did a hard shut down and held the home button and the lock button at the same time, but after the screen turns off and i let go of the buttons, the ipad turns back on and goes back to the same lines everywhere.
    I purchased the ipad about 3 months ago and this is the first problem i have had. I have NEVER dropped it and the case i use is an Apple smart cover that uses a magnet to stay connected to the Ipad. I have also tried putting it in recovery mode and wiping my Ipad but have had no luck with any change. Please someone help me and figure out what i need to do.

    I hope someone can help as I have the same problem with my iPad!

  • Lock screen has lost notification icons and replaced with "verizon wireless"

    Is there a way to get rid of the "verizon wireless" name on my notification bar when the phone is in lock screen? This changed after the lollipop update. This forces you to unlock screen to see what notifications are pending. I don't need to see that I have verizon wireless. I know my provider.

    lol, I agree...a very unnecessary change, seeing how VZW brands the phone enough.

  • Screen has moved

    Well - when I got my iMac the screen was perfectly centrered, with a small black border around it. Gradually the screen which was centered has been moving to the left. how do i realine ths? there are no buttons like on a normal monitor.
    Thanks

    Go to System Preferences > Display and then click on Geometry. Then align the screen as needed. It's actually a lot easier to do this way

  • My page has moved to the right of the screen so I do not have a full centre page. How do I move the page back to the centre of the screen. There is no bottom scroll bar for me to move the page to the left of the screen. Hope this makes sense

    The picture on my screen has moved over to the right hand side and I want it to be in the centre. How do I move it back as I do not have a scroll bar at the bottom of the page to do this and am unable to drag it back. Hope this makes sense!

    Its a toolbar thing. I got rid of my Babylon toolbar and it sorted it out!

  • Green battery on top right of iPhone 4s lock screen, is it fake or normal one? It isn't charging.

    My dad bought an "iPhone 4s" in Greece. He showed it to me on Skype. He showed me the box, there is an "AT&T" and a price sticker, and the "4s" on the side of the box is highlighted with black which I think that it isn't highlighted. When he showed me the phone, the lock screen has a green battery icon on top right of the lock screen, which is normally white. In my case, the battery was like the battery on "settings". I wanna know if it is normal or fake. Thanks.

    Hello, michellefromafrica. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I see you have already looked at the section related to error 2006 in the second article below and the device is still unable to be restored.  I would recommend trying the steps in the article below.

  • IOS7 - After taking a photo the lock screen zooms in and I can not enter my password. Does anyone know why?

    Everytime I take a photo on my phone either when it is locked or not, when I come back to my phone to use it next the lock screen has zoomed in and I can not enter my password. I have to either switch the phone off or keep playing with the side button. Its only happened since iOS7 has been installed. Can anyone help?

    On the Home screen, double-tap with three fingers to exit zoom.
    Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility and make sure Zoom is turned Off.

  • IOS 7 Lock Screen Bypass Workaround

    It was brought to my attention by one of my co-workers that the launch day (9/18/2013) version iOS 7 contains a vulnerability that could allow an unauthorized user to bypass the device's lock screen to send out pictures.  Even if lock screen access for Control Center was disabled, it was reported that Siri could be used to access the Timer app and complete the bypass.  In order to prevent this bypass from being performed on company-owned Apple mobile devices, we created a quick workaround procedure:
    For Control Center:  Perform the following steps to disable Control Center from the Lock Screen:
    Press the "Settings" icon.
    Select"Control Center".
    Swipe the toggle for "Access on Lock Screen" so that it no longer green.
    For Siri:  Perform the following steps to disable Siri from the Lock Screen:
    Press the "Settings" icon.
    Select"General" then "Passcode Lock".
    Enter your passcode
    In the "Allow Access When Locked" section, swipe the toggle for "Siri" so that it no longer green .
    Your device is now secured from unauthorized users leveraging the launch day iOS 7 bypass vulnerability.  Once Apple fixes the vulnerability, you can again turn on Siri and Control Center at the lock screen.

    Guys chill, the solution is simple-try it and let me know:
    Go to: Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut > (then tick Invert Colors)
    This will access the "Invert Colors" shortcut when you press the home button 3 times - and it will prevent the multitasking while locked option from coming, hence your phone won't be hacked and your photos are safe
    Let me know if it works for you!
    Cheers

  • My AV switched the Novell GINA + Lock Screen to Microsoft's

    Hello, I Installed the free FortiClient-Lite AV v5 on WinXP SP3 with the Novell Client v4.91 SP5 on an old work laptop.
    FortiClient has replaced the Novell GINA (a.k.a. Logon screen) with Microsoft's by deleting the following registry key:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
    "GinaDLL"="NWGINA.DLL"
    I restored this successfully, but my Lock screen has remained as Microsoft's instead of the Novell Client's "Workstation Locked" screen? My Network Connections > Advanced Settings > Provider Order has remained the same (NetWare Services at the top).
    I experience a new delay showing my Windows desktop after logon, but this was probably due to pre-existing XP quirks that FortiClient's changes exposed. Otherwise, FortiClient is a nice AV, with Parental Controls via web-filtering categories plus AV swinging it for me.
