Locked Access Code for Network Preferences - treo650

I've been using a used treo650 for about a year.  I finally decided to try the web usuage and had sprint activate it.  But it appears that the previous owner of my phone put a access code on the network preferences area I need to finish setting the phone up.  After working with Sprint tech support it looked like the only solution was to do a hard reset on the phone and have the sprint store configure the phone and web info - then I would hotsync to recover my data  - good plan - first part worked - sprint was able to configure the phone and it worked!  - But when I hotsync'd it to recover personal data the network preferences were overridden and I'm back to a lock network preference and no web access.
Looking for a way of defeating the access code and still being able to hotsync -------   I have a few ideas put they are pretty drastic.
Any Ideas?

When you sync, you get a lot of little settings files along with the big databases containing your contacts and calendar. I don't know which files are responsible for network settings, but if you have time, you could rummage around in your profile folder. Not sure where yours is, but mine was under c:\Program Files\palmOne\username when I originally installed, and when I installed the downloadable version of Palm Desktop, it was created under c:\Program Files\Palm\username.

A backup would be advisable.

    Given that you are logged in as that user, and most likely the admin user of the Mac, then it makes sense that you can change your own settings. If you were logged in as a different user, then you would not have access to change the settings for this admin account.

  • IOS7 set access code for IPad4 after update.

    Why do I suddenly have an access code for my IPad4 after the ios7 update? I didn´t have an access code before, and I haven´t set one either. My wife says she hasen´t used the ipad since yesterday.  I can access the ipad through Itunes on my Macbook, but I can´t reset the ipad because I need to turn off the "icloud search" in the ipad settings (which I can´t access because I don´t know the access code).
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks,

  • Ricoh Aficio MP C4501 with access codes for color printing

    Hi,
    I read the discuss called "Ricoh 3245C with access codes for color printing", and I have a similar problem with a Ricoh MPC4501 printer. The printer is connected to many Windows PCs and my brand new iMac. It requires just User Codes authenication. PostScript is not installed on the printer (could this be the problem?). I've tried all the suggestions brought up in the mentioned discussion but I still can't print. It seems like the printer is not connected to the Mac. Here are the answers to the questions asked in the previous discussion:
    Is PostScript module installed?
    No, I guess. PS is not one of the languages included on the Configuration Page.
    What languages does your printer understand?
    RPCS [3.10.14], PCL 5c [1.02] and PCL XL [1.02]
    What drivers are you using?
    I tried the one from the Ricoh site for OS10.8 (http://support.ricoh.com/bb/html/dr_ut_e/ra/model/mpc41/mpc41en.htm) as well as the driver (three downloads) from Linux (http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/macosx/pxlmon o). Neither worked. It might be helpful to mention that the Linux driver enabled me to print to a Ricoh Aficio MP 4001 that doesn't require authentication.
    How are you entering your User Code?
    Depending on the application. For Adobe apps, which are my main concern, I would have to click on the Printer button in the Print dialog to open the system Printer dialog, then enter the user code there under Job Log. I had to use the script provided in the previous discussion (http://webpages.charter.net/mbroughtn/beta/RicohUserCodes.zip) to add my User Code.
    How are you connecting to the printer -- what protocol?
    I'm not sure. I didn't find any of the protocols cited in the previous discussion on the Configuaration Page. If it helps, I know that the printer has an IP address on the network. And as I mentioned, it's mainly connected to many Windows PCs.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Can't help with user codes, but I suggest you try IP HP jetdirect first whenever you add an enterprise net printer. You could always look on a windows computer for printer port configjration. There, you will find jetdirect called raw port 9100 protocol.

  • Satellite L350 - Access code for the router

    Dear Sirs
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L350 running Windows 7 Ultimate. For the first 5 months it remembered the wireless access code for the router. I then installed a BT Home Hub which I subsequently removed and from then on the Windows 7 machine will no longer remember the password.
    I have spent hours on the phone with Microsoft to no avail. Can anyone help?

    The problem is very simple but the solution is not.
    As I said earlier the computer remebered the wirless access code for around 5 months.
    I then installed a BT home hub (free from BT) and it worked fine and then I uninstalled it and reverted back to my D-Link router.
    From this point on every time I turn on the computer I have to enter the wireless access code to connect to the internet and until I turn off the computer all works fine.
    Microsoft have not been able to locate the problem and neither have BT hence this last attempt to try and find the solution.
    Thanks for your reply and I look forward to some help.

  • Access Code for Long Distance

    I am unable to make long distance calls. Each time I try I get a recording stating the access code I entered isn't valid. What does this mean? I've never heard of using an access code for long distance.
    Thanks in advance for your help. 

    Could be mistake.
    You could have been slammed by another phone company.
    You didn't identify your type of phone service.  E.g Fios Digital Voice, Verizon Freedom Plan, etc..
    Remember you are talking to peers here.  Most likely you will need to use the CONTACT US button on any of the verizon webpage.

  • Good afternoon! What to do if forgot an access code for write-off of money from the card?

    Hello!!!
    What to do if fogot an access code for write-off of maney from the card?

    If you made in app purchases in a game, and you did not receive the "items" you paid for, contact the developer of the game.  If you are unable to receive support from the developer, you then should contact the iTunes store and inform them that you did not recieve the purchased content. 
    IF iTunes store support refunds the money that you spent, I would suggest you NOT use the refunded money for the same items, as you may not receive a refund for the same thing again.
    Good Luck.

    There isn't one.  You'll need to connect the Nano to your iTunes library and restore to factory settings.  There is no other way.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Netflix : access code for instant watch

    Sorry if this has been addressed before but I downloaded the Netflix app, and I am already a Netflix subscriber. To watch instantly, the IPAD asks for an access code and says my device will instruct me how to get that.. the IPAD? Or do I get the code from Netflix? What am I missing here? Thanks!!!

    Wait, are you just trying to watch instant Netflix movies on your iPad, or are you trying to use your iPad to wirelessly watch Netflix movies on your TV?
    The reason I'm asking is that Netflix ONLY asks for the access code when you set up your DVD/TV the first time for wireless viewing on your TV. To do that you must have the right device for wireless transmission (for example, I have a Panasonic Blu-Ray DVD and the special wireless receiver). You CAN'T use the iPad as the wireless receiver to do this.
    If however, you are simply trying to view the movies on your iPad directly, all you need is your Netflix username and password. No access codes are needed.
