How do I validate an email password when I've forgotten password?

Got an email this morning that said emails would no longer be forwarded to my Blackberry until I validated my password. Went to email settings to do this but since I've forgotten my password, I'm stuck. I called Blackberry RIM and got absolutely no where after three calls. They finally told me to contact Verizon. I have my PIN number but no clue where to start to getting my previous password reset.
And and all help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

This is not an issue with Mail but with your email host. You may have to contact the provide to recover your password. If you use a provider like google or yahoo, you can visit the web-based site and click a link for recovering the password. Without specific informaiton regarding who the provider it will be hard to assist musch more.
Hopefully this points you in the right direction.

HT5312 How to set a rescue email address when I already have an Apple ID and I forgot my security questions

How to set a rescue email address when I already have an Apple ID. Actually I forgot my security questions.

You won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

How do I put rescue email to reset my security question password?

You cannot(without correctly answering two of the questions) and need to ask Apple to reset them; ways of doing so include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

How can i get into my ipad when i forgot my password?

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

Force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

Or, login to iCloud.com, locate the phone, then erase it.
Either method will remove the passcode.

Try using your computer password. I tried any password I could think of relating to my phones, but it was none of them; it was, in fact, my computer password.

Put it in recovery mode to restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screenand iOS: Recovery mode
If you have previously synced your device with iTunes
You may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device.
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes", below.
Right-click the device in the left column and select Back up.
When the backup is complete, select Restore.
When finished, restore from your most recent backup.
If you are using Find My iPhone, you can use Remote Wipe to restore 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.

How can I validate an email password via the BIS site

I have received a message asking me to validate the password for an MSN email account I access through a work Curve 8520. I have done this before without any problem but now my BB says there is a problem connecting to the server so I can't access my email accounts to validate. Email is still coming through on other accounts. I tried to use the PC and access through the Blackberry Internet Server page but can't find anywhere there to access email account settings (all the guides say email settings are on the left hand pane of the page but not on any page I have found?

How to separate / validate multiple emails?

Hi,
User enters single or multiple emails in the field. We provide help saying that all emails must be separated by either a comma or semicolon. Not everyone follows that so if user enters [email protected] [email protected] the email is not sent. There can be more than 2 emails.
So is there a way to check that those emails are separated by either comma or semicolon, and if not add it before email is sent?
Thank you

Hi Frank,
I am trying to validate multiple email addresses as well. Currently, my function works for only one email address. Is there a way to extend this function? I am using Oracle 9i.
FUNCTION validate_email_format(p_address IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
l_dot_pos    NUMBER;
l_at_pos     NUMBER;
l_str_length NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_dot_pos := instr(p_address, '.');
l_at_pos := instr(p_address, '@');
l_str_length := LENGTH(p_address);
if ((l_dot_pos = 0) OR (l_at_pos = 0) OR (l_dot_pos = l_at_pos + 1) OR
      (l_at_pos = 1) OR (l_at_pos = l_str_length ) OR
      (l_dot_pos = l_str_length)) then
    return 'FAILURE';
end if;
if instr(substr(p_address, l_at_pos), '.') = 0 then
    return 'FAILURE';
end if;
return 'SUCCESS';
END validate_email_format;Thanks

How do I change my email address when using the ap store

When trying to purchase an app I'm asked for my password but my email address
Is wrong how do I change it

hmm. That's strange. I've always been able to do that before on the previous iTunes. Did you go to itunes store? It should have your email address on the top right hand side. Click on it, and you should be able to log out and then log into a different account.
or, make a new account

You apparently are using a version of OS X you did not purchase using your Apple ID. Although you can download Mavericks you cannot install it over your current system. You must repartition your hard drive, then reinstall the version of OS X originally installed when it came new from the factory. That would be on the installer discs that should have come with the computer. If the computer did not come with discs from the factory but OS X was pre-installed (Lion or Mountain Lion) then you can perform an Internet Recovery:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

How to reset password when don't know password

On most accounts on the web, there is an option to reset passwords via a email reminder of what the passward is. We need to do some trouble shooting with the ipod on another issue, and we have tried the two passwords we have. How do we recover the correct password? The iTunes one only effects iTunes, not the iPod?
MC OS X 1.2 Mac OS X (10.2.x)

Do you have a screen lock enabled, and you've forgotten the code?
If so, you'll need to restore the iPod to reset the code.
