How does a BlackBerry handheld connect to BES for the first time?

How does a Blackberry device connect to BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) for the first time? Is there a risk that a rogue BlackBerry handheld connects to BES?
Thank you in advance!

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
When a BES admin sets up a BB on BES, they configure the unique BB PIN into their BES and also create credentials that are required to actually complete the registration process on the BB. So, while there is no perfect security anywhere, I don't think the risk you are concerned about is high enough to warrant any attention.
Good luck!

  • How long does it take to connect to Wi-Fi the first time I use my Ipad? It's been over 30 minutes. I see that it wants to connect but it keeps on turning.

    It should not take very long. Up to thirty seconds tops depending on your Wi-Fi network.
    Try rebooting your Wi-Fi router. Turn off the router for 30 seconds then turn it back on. After the router completes its startup routine and indicates a good connection to the internet start you iPad again and see if it will connect.
    If you still have problems you might try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. Maybe one at your local coffee shop or library.

  • I connected my iphone for the first time to itunes and lost everything. How can I recover my data?

    I connected my iphone for the first time to my itunes. It didnt have any backup or anything saved on icloud. As soon as i plugged it in, on itunes it asked if I wanted to restore, or backup, my ipod to my iphone or something (I dont remember) and I clicked yes. I thought that it was syncing music, and apps that i had on my ipod but instead it made my iPhone 4s into a copy of my ipod touch from the last time i synced my ipod (august 2012) now i have lost all of my contacts, pictures, messages, calls, emails and everything else I had on my iphone... is there any way that I can recover anything and get it how it used to be before all of this happened? i did not save anything on the computer or on itunes backup...

    Sorry saker, but if you have not backed up your data anywhere, and you told the computer, in essence to clear the data and restore it with your iPod data, then you are pretty much out of luck....
    Cheers,

    how to I get my ipod connected to wifi for the first time..it's an ipod tougch 2010 version, refurbished

    Hi,
    To connect your iPod to wifi just:
         1. Open settings,
         2. Tap Wi-Fi,
         3. Make sure the Wi-Fi switch is on,
         4. Tap the network you would like to connect to,
         5. If  the network has a password then type it in and press join.
    For hidden networks(networks that don't broadcast their SSID(name))
         1. Follow 1-3 above,
         2. Tap other,
         3. Type in SSID(name) of the network,
         4. Select the security of the network,
         5. If there is a password type it in,
         6. Press Join.
    Some public networks may now show a login screen where you  may have to agree to terms and conditions, enter your email etc...

    It sounds like you are trying to create a new icloud account, not just logging into an existing account.  When you type in your Apple ID and get that error, it's because you are trying to create an account using the same ID that is already being used in another account.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen.  If you are logged in, press the Delete button, then try logging in with the existing ID.
    As for pics, the most secure way is to connect ipod to PC with USB and look at the Photos tab for your device in iTunes.  Using Photo Stream is another way, but it doesn't always work, depending on conditions.

  • Satellites L650D: how long do i leave it on charge for the first time?

    just recently bought this computer Toshiba Satellite series L650D and was wondering how long do i leave it on charge for the first time on power????
    Please help

    Hello
    If the battery is fully charged, the battery LED will switch the color. Depending on your notebook it will switch from orange to white for example. After this the battery is fully charged.
    The charging time is also depending on the battery, AC/DC adaptor and if the notebook is truned on or off. So nobody can exactly say how long it takes but the battery LED will it show you. :)

  • HOW TO STOP you are opening this program for the first time

    I continue to get the warning "you are opening this program for the first time".  I don't want that warning to ever appear again for any program.  How to permanently get this warning to never again appear?
    Best regards,

    Thomas,
    The reason I don't want these warnings (especially for programs that I have had on my Mac for years!) is because I now use ecamm's "Printopia" to send items from my iPad3 running iOS 6.0.1 to my MacBook Pro-13 (mid-2010) running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 -- and in order to do this:
    1.  Both my iPad and Mac have to be on the same WiFi network.
    2.  The Mac has to be awake, cannot be in the "sleep" mode
    OK but in order to wake my Mac, I've found that using the app "Remote" on my iPad to open iTunes AND PLAY A SONG will "waken" my Mac*.
    So now, for example, I send a .jpg file to my Mac.  I have it set so that GraphicConverter opens when a .jpg file is to be opened.  OK but if this warning appears (and even though I have had GraphicConverter on the Mac since the beginning of time…) I sometimes (like today) get this warning.  Of course I am not at my Mac and yet when I eventually go to my Mac-- there is that dialog box sitting there and until I click OK the photo doesn't open (and on my iPad I don't get a confirmation that it has been sent, because it hasn't until I click OK on the Mac).
    This could happen for other types of files, too - text files or Word documents etc.
    It seems to happen when I UPDATE a program, like when GC went from 8.3 to 8.3.1 for example.
    Thanks for any additional comments.
    *Perhaps there is a better / faster / easier way to "waken" my Mac from my iPad?  This is the only way I have found so far…

  • HT4859 how long does it take to backup your phone for the first time using icloud?

    I have never used Icloud before and now my phone wants to be resotred so I am trying to back everything up using Icloud it just dosent seem to be moving and it just continues to say estimated time ...

    Hello there jspin11,
    The amount of time that the iCloud backup will take depends on a few factors the 2 most important are the amount of data to be backed up, and the internet connection speed.
    I found a great resource for troubleshooting iCloud backups named iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3992.
    General information
    iCloud Backup requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet.
    Automatic backups occur when you've plugged in your iOS device, locked the screen, and have connected it to Wi-Fi.
    You can manually start a backup by tapping Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup (requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet).
    iCloud Backup will provide helpful information and status messages related to backups at the bottom ofSettings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    If automatic backups don't work as expected, test to see what happens when you start a manual backup by tapping Back Up Now at the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
    Backups and restores both take time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your data and the speed of your network, you may need to give more time than you expected to a backup or restore.
    Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free space available on your iOS device before you back up. If you have no space available on your device, iCloud Backup can fail in some cases. You can verify how much free space you have available on your iOS device in Settings > General > About.
    SettingsiCloud Backup settings are controlled on a per-device basis from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    To view Storage & Backup settings:
    Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    Tap Manage Storage.
    Tap your device's name. From here you can:
    View the size of your backups and see the storage used by each app.
    Enable or disable Backup for each app.
    Delete Backups.
    Buy more storage.
    If you're out of iCloud Storage space, you can apply several solutions:
    Exclude Camera Roll and other large data from iCloud backups of your device by going to iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage and choosing your device.
    Remove some of the larger files on your device, such as large audio or video files, from your Camera Roll in order make more space.
    Remove existing Backups.
    Purchase more storage.
    For more information about managing and using the Storage & Backup settings, see this article.
    If an issue persists and you are not able to resolve it using the methods discussed in this article, contact iCloud Support for additional assistance.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • HT4859 i recently got the iphone 4s. and also got a new HP laptop. I connected my iphone for the first time on my computer and now i can't access my music on my device, any ideas?

    I need help with my music. I got the Iphone 4s and plugged it in my new computer..I can see the list of my songs but as soon as i click to listen to it.. jumps into next song and I can't play any of them. I did my  back up to Icloud yesterday..but not sure how to restore from that back up..also would like to have all this songs transfered to my computer
    thank you

    Did you by chance have photo stream turned on? If so then they might be there. When you restored your phone it deleted everything and they will be unretreivable from your computer.

  • How many hours should i charge iPod touch for the first time?

    please help.

    Charge as long as you want. If the battery indicator have a plug image then it's full otherwise you see a lightning image. Apple advices to discharge (use it till it's empty) once a month to prolong battery life.
