Gmail Password Reset

I'm hoping someone can help!
Until today, I was receiving and sending emails on my BlackBerry just fine. This morning, I thought it was a good time to change my gmail password, and did so on my laptop. Then noticed I wasn't getting my emails and realized I hadn't changed it on my BB (duh). When I went into Email Settings and re-entered the new password, it told me that my password is incorrect and if the problem persists to contact gmail.com.
I contacted my service provider for tech support (should'a known better!) and they supposedly deleted my email account from my device so that I could reassign my email address onto my phone using the updated password. According to them, this should have reset everything and allowed me to start fresh. No such luck, still doesn't work.

Tried a battery pull
Tried deleting the account from my BlackBerry
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance!

tannd, i figured it out. from the home screen, click on setup, then emal settings. use the blackberry logo key (left click?). If validate is an option, choose it and enter your new password. If you don't need validation, select edit and input your new password. voila! i'm a total tech nepophite, so am totally psyched that i figured this out good luck!

  • Gmail password reset problem on my iPhone 4s

    I recently changed the password to my gmail account but my iPhone wil not accept the update and now I canot get my email from my phone- it keeps saying User name or password for "imap.gmail.com" is incorrect, but I know they are accurate.  I even tried deleting the account from my phone completely and starting over but no luck.  I can get into my gmail account from my laptop fine, so I know the user name and passowrds are right.

  • Blackberry ID Password reset email doesn't contain a link to reset password!

    I'm having the same issue that this guy had in this forum (which doesn't seem to have a solution?): http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/Blackberry-ID-Password-Reset/m-p/1745415#...
    Basically, I'm trying to reset my Blackberry password for my Blackberry Curve. I get a password reset email when i request it, but the email does not contain a link to reset my password. The ENTIRETY of the email is as follows:
    "This email has been automatically generated. Please do not reply to this email.
    If you have not previously indicated that you wish to receive emails from Research In Motion Limited and/or its affiliated companies regarding exclusive offers and updates about BlackBerry products and services and you would like to do so, please click here.

    Does anyone know what the problem is? It's not my web browser distorting the email -- i've tried retrieving the email from Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer.
    Solved!

    That is very strange indeed...with only 2 possible causes I can think of.
    1) Your email app (on your PC) is blocking the link that is included in the email...many email apps will do this and sometimes you must override them. If you have an alternate interface to use (e.g., GMail webmail interface versus Outlook), then try the other and see if that helps. Depending on the email environment (e.g., private corporate email system), it is also possible that some gateway along the path is stripping out the necessary link(s) as a security measure.
    2) The reset email facility is actually broken, and the email does not contain what it is supposed to. If that is the case, then it requires formal attention from RIM. The only way to achieve that is for you to contact VZW and have them escalate your case into RIM.
    Good luck!

  • Iphone 3GS says Gmail password is wrong but its not?

    Hello all, I have an iPhone 3GS and have been using it with GMail for nearly a year now with no issues at all.
    Today out of the blue the phone says the password or username is incorrect and won't download new emails but both the username and password are correct, its just the phone will not have it!
    I even went as far as resetting the Gmail password on my laptop but still it says on the phone that its not right!
    I've tried resetting the phone by deleting the email account, then pressing the power and the home button to reset it but still it doesn't like it? I've checked my Gmail account and pop forwarding is on as well ??
    Any help how to get my Gmail account back up and running ?

    Hi,
    I take it you are creating @Mac,com names to work in iChat ?
    The Apple Registration page for this allows passwords to be over 16 characters.
    Unfortunately the page does not tell you that the AIM servers can only use Up to 16 characters (it can be 16 characters or shorter)
    Use the iForgot page to change the password.

  • Gmail password problem

    After reading all the stuff about Mat Honan getting hacked, I decided to turn on 2-step verification and change my gmail password.  This has proved disastrous.  I can no longer acces my gmail through the native mail app on my iPhone.
    I looked through all the forums and apparently the 2-step verification was a part of the problem.  So, I turned that off.  Guess what...I still can't get on.  But only on the native mail app on the iphone.  If I use Safari, I can log in fine on my iPhone.  I can log in fine here on my computer.  It's just in the mail app.  Any ideas anyone?
    I've deleted the account all together and tried to re-add the account.  I've reset network settings (out of frustration, not thinking that would actually help).  I've done all I can think to do.  Please help!

    How do I reset my password on my device?

    if you're locked out on the 1st screen, only you know the password.
    if you mean gmail, password recovery can be sent to your email & picked up on a pc, if you set it up.

  • Don't get password reset email from Mozilla

    I filled in the 'please reset my password' form 3 times and still do not see any password reset email. Over the weekend all my bookmarks disappeared and the solution apparently is to logon and perform a Sync reset. But I can't do that without my password. How can I get my new password link? I use gmail and my spam folder has no reset email. Is the Firefox password reset service working?

    I forgot to mention for future finders of this error report. If you click on the 'Server Status' button that appears at the bottom of your FF screen (I'm running v15.01) you are taken to a web page showing there is supposedly nothing wrong with the Sync servers and a link to send in troubleshooting information. That link is[http:// http://blog.mozilla.org/jv/2011/10/03/help-mozilla-services-operations-debug-whats-wrong-with-sync/ http://blog.mozilla.org/jv/2011/10/03/help-mozilla-services-operations-debug-whats-wrong-with-sync/] and if you follow the procedure and send in the info it sounds like they are supposed to follow up with you debugging your Sync issue. So far the follow up has not occurred for me.

  • Retrieving Gmail Password In Mac Mail

    I have been unable to retrieve the password for Gmail account. I've contacted Google numerous times and even answering EVERY question, they will not send me a password reset.
    My Gmail account is setup on my iMac and my iPhone, but I can't set up my email account on my MacBook Pro since I can't access the password.
    Is there anyway to export my Mac Mail settings or be able to see the password (it shows up as •••••••••) or be able to hack it to copy and paste.

    On the iMac, go to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access. Do a search in your "login" keychain for "gmail" and find the correct one (eg, the POP or SMTP server key). Highlight it, click the "i" button at the bottom of the screen, and click "Show password". You'll need to enter your Mac user's login password to reveal the password.

  • Gmail password retrieval

    Hello..
    For whatever reason, my MacPro "lost" my gmail password.  My other 2 apple platforms: iPhone 4S and iPad 2 still remembers it...but it is of course, encoded and I cannot read it.
    Problem is, I cannot recall my password as my son set up my gmail on all of my Apple products  and he is unavailable.
    I checked Google but nothing re: Lion can be found.
    Has my MacPro saved my gmail password anywhere?
    Gmail asks so many questions to reset my password...the only answer I know for sure is my maiden name.  But that is not sufficient to reset my password. 
    Please help! Thanks

    Does she remember the email she used? If she does she can reset. If you forgot your Apple ID password
    If she forgets apple ID, she can also use this. https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid
    Make sure to check your spam folder in your email as well. Also check your Rescue email for account retrieval as well Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
    If those fail, contact Apple Support Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

  • Change Gmail password

    Hello. I want to change my gmail password on first on my mac Book pro and then on my iPhone 5s and my iPad. I am afraid making a mistake and then loose access to my account at gmail or Facebook or twitter. Could you please help me??? How can i do these changes to my devices without causing any trouble?
    Thanks.

    You reset the password in your browser when you log into Gmail. Save the changes in System Preferences. Wherever Gmail is used on your computer should work or it will ask you to enter the password when the app opens. Facebook isn't an app so there should be nothing to change there. Your twitter account should use the password you entered in System Preferences.
    You might want to consider Gmail's two step authentication.

  • How can i change email address for security questions and password resets

    I've noticed that my password reset requests are going to an old email acount. In fact, i am not sure where they are going.
    the real issue is that i don't see a way to change it when i am logged in (it took me many tries to actually log back in) to my apple id account.
    I've changed alternate email accounts, but again i don't see a way to change my destination email account for security section of the account.
    Also i would rather reset these via text (ATT has this option for my cell phone account reset and i love it).  I don't see an option like that from Apple at all.
    Any suggestions and help will be much appreciated. Don't want to struggle with password resets every time i need to get in.

    If you're able to supply two of your security answers, click here and follow the instructions to change your rescue email address.
    If not, you need to contact Apple.

  • Can't download apps after password reset

    Why won't my phone download any new apps after doing a password reset? If I enter the wrong password I get an error message. If I enter the correct password, nothing happens.

    HI,
    *"Or when I try to download a program I get this dark gray screen with a black column in the middle filled with gibberish."*
    If it looks like this... it's a kernel panic.
    Go here for help to Resolve Kernel Panics
    Try downloading and installing the 10.6.2 combo update available here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959
    One of the fixes: -- an issue that prevented opening files downloaded from the Internet
    After the installation, repair disk permissions.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
    And try Safari maintenance...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
    Safari add-ons can cause performance issues or other situations
    Also, if you are running Safari in 64 bit mode, try running in 32-bit mode instead. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Quit Safari then relaunch.
    While you have the Get Info window open for Safari, make sure it's not running in Rosetta.
