How to password reset/factory reset Blackberry Bold?

Hi,
My friend has lost is Blackberry Bold password and now couldn't login so how can I reset the device?

Hey rapster88,
Welcome to the forums.
If you have forgotten your device password you will need to wipe the device by entering the password incorrectly 10 times.

How can i locate a lost Blackberry Bold...

my phone was stolen all of 3 or so hours ago. Verizon does not have anyone that is answering the Emergency Support number. Is there any way outside of calling in a Police Favor to have the phone tracked? If the person pulled the SIM card can it still be located based off the internal Ser#?

It's been a day, have you retrieved phone? There is an app you can get called BB Protect that will do just this, but it has to be installed and set up prior to losing the phone. Awesome app that lets you lock and or wipe the phone remotely, locate it, make it ring so you can find it....but doesn't do much good now.
Call CS and have them deactivate the phone, and report it as stolen so whoever has it won't be racking up charges on your dime, and won't be able to activate it with another number. I'm not sure if it can be located or not . . .
For the future, get BB Protect, and log in and play with it every couple of weeks to keep yourself familiar with what it can do. Then when/if your phone is lost or stolen you won't be trying to figure out the program or remember your login; it will all be familiar.

Password reset on all target systems + how to find mskeyvalue from store?

Hi All
As per the below link for password reset
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/00d69428-cc00-2c10-9ca5-b4f607bbbddf&overridelayout=true , I am able to reset the password of the user id in ume of IDM AS java server. However this document does not explain how the password reset functionality will change the password on all connected target system. For example, When I reset the password from IDM interface, the password of all my user ids in other target systems like ERP, Portal, Exchange, AD etc should change. But these information is not available on this document. Please advice how we can can configure these steps.
Also how we can find the mskeyvalue of a user in identity store exactly? . If we need to run the sql query, can you please give the exact SQL query you need to use ?
Thank you.

Hi Sahad,
just for your question about the sql statement:
select attrname, aValue from mxiv_sentries where attrname = 'MSKEYVALUE' and aValue like '%<Search string>%' and IS_ID = <number of your IS_ID>.
This statement should display only one User if you have changed the placeholders.
I'm not sure, whether this helps or not. If not, please give me some more details.
Kind regards,
Achim Heinekamp

Connect the iPod to the computer and restore via iTunes. If necessary, place the iPod in Recovery Mode to allow the restore.

We have a 3rd generation iPod nano which we have forgotten the password to. How do I reset it to factory settings so I can sync it with our iMac and iTunes?

How do I reset our iPod nano 3rd generation to factory specs so we can sync it to our iMac and iTunes? We have forgotten the password and have given up on the guessing game after too many attempts. I have been through the support, tried trouble shooting, but it doesn't seem to sink in... What is the "simple" way to get our nano back for a new set up?

I should add that I have tried the online on how to restore but it says it has to be through iTunes and iTunes doesn't even recognize the iPod at this point. The iPod is an iPod 2 classic I believe.

Xperia M4 Aqua, forgot password, how to reset password or factory reset phone?

I've had my phone for a couple of days and today I decided to get a pattern lock, and of course the first thing I do is to forget it. How do I reset the pattern lock? I've googled around without any succes and when I enter wrong pattern there is no "forgot pattern" button, it just says "you failed to draw the right pattern X times, wait 30 seconds before trying again", I tried almost 70 times already and Im not getting anywhere.Then I tried to look up how to factory reset if you forgot your password, and I found one guide saying you have to turn off your phone and press and hold down the volume+ button and power button for about 10 seconds, in order to bring up a reseting menu or whatever. But holding down these buttons just turns the phone on and off every 2 seconds... So if anyone could tell me either how to reset the pattern or factory reset, that'd be great.

You have these options:
1. See this link
2. You need to perform a software repair using PC Companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 80% battery.
Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).
Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).

How do i reset my time capsule without a password?

Hi.
I just bought my Time Capsule. I started it up and registered it and so on.
Then I used the network to backup my computer, but because of the power got shut off during the night
it stopped backing up my computer.
Now I wanna backup my computer, but it wont let me because it wants a password.
I didnt give it a password, but just to make sure I tried every password I could think of, but nothing.
No I would like to ask:
How do I reset/format my Time Capsule with out using a password?
I tried in disc utilities but it doesnt come up (im using an ethernet cable) and nothing.
Please help me!
Kind Regards
Emil

That is strange.
The default password is public.. just try that.
If not a soft reset, and it should reset just the passwords.
Otherwise do a full or factory reset.. it will not erase the disk.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
You can do that from inside the airport utility .. not from disk utility.. but use vs 5.6 if you are on Lion OS.

Download the regional version.. ?? If that is required.

How can I reset my iPad that I forgot the password to my linked account.

My iPad is linked to an old gmail account of mine that I believe has been hacked. I have tried everything to
reset my gmail password and it hasn't worked. I think someone changed all of my information. I have
tried to reset my iPad by holding down the home button and power button and connecting to iTunes. I
did the restore but now it is saying "This iPad is currently linked to an Apple ID. Sign in with the Apple ID
that was used to set up this iPad." It provides me with the Apple ID: m*****@gmail.com and wants me
to enter the password but I don't know the password and have tried everything to retrieve it. There's nothing
on the iPad so I don't care about erasing any data. How can I reset the iPad so that I can use it? Is there
another method besides the one I have already tried?

If your iPad is running iOS 7, there is no way you're going to be able to regain access to your iPad without the password for the Apple ID used by that iPad. You cannot even restore the iPad to factory settings without the password. This is an anti-theft feature.
You will need to contact Apple and try to regain control of your Apple ID. It is entirely possible, however, for the hacker to make changes to your Apple ID that would make it difficult or impossible to do that. You need to act as quickly as possible!

How do I reset Apple Mail to Factory Settings?

How do I reset Apple Mail to factory settings? I had 7 emails accounts on there and was about to add my school email address. It wasn't going through though, so I went to the school's IT department to ask them to do it. Unfortunately, the IT guy couldn't fix the school email and worse, now ALL my emails accounts won't go online. They all have exclamation points to their right, and are constantly asking for passwords. No matter how many times I put in the right password, it still keeps asking for it. I tried fixing it from Mail Preferences and System Preferences but nothing works. It keeps saying Connection Error. I don't know what the IT guy tweaked but it messed up everything.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
A Complete Guide to Recover Your iDevice if You Forget Your Passcode
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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
     1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
         of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
     2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
         red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
          If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons.
     3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
         The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
         charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
         start with step 2 again.
     4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
         When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
     5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
     6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

How do i reset/restore computer to factory settings???

how do i reset/restore computer to factory settings???

Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
Step One - Back up your data:
       A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
       B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
          1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
          2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
          3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
              side.
          4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
              sure to opt for that.
               Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
               startup drive.
Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
          1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
          2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
          3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
          4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
          5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See.What to do with iCloud before selling your computer
Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
     A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
          1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
          2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
          3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
              Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          4. Install OS X.
          5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
          6. Shutdown the computer.
     B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                   it is three times faster than wireless.
          1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
              Utilities window appears.
          2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
          3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
              on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
          4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
              and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
          6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
          7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
          8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
*If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

Unable to set parental controls on itunes b/c my username and password are not correct. How do I reset them? There is no prompt to give any clues what they are.

unable to set parental controls on Itunes b/c my user name and password got rejected. How do I reset them or figure out my username and password?

This is a user to user support forum. We are all iphone users just like you.
You are not addressing Apple here at all.
This is an odd way to ask your fellow iphone users for help. Berating oterh users will not help you.
"it's too fragile"
No it is not. i have never damaged one, nor has anyone I know.
" U loose data when Ur phone is locked"
No you don't. Why do you think this?
"and there is no customer support!!! "
Wrong yet again. Apple has an 800 number and they have many retail stores and they have support articles that you can access using the search bar. Or you can contact them throgh express lane online
"but I will go back with Blackberry "
Please do.
Good ridance
