My PIN is locked by carrier, is that normal?

Hi to all!
I am having serious problems here. Probably somebody can help me right here.
It's 4 months since I moved to Claro Argentina and got a Curve 8900 with BB service and normal telephone service.
I am really angry at this carrier as I dont have antenna coverage down were I live. So I decided to go back to my old carrier Movistar Argentina.
I called Claro and asked them to free up my 8900 so it could me used in another carrier, and these people told me that I should pay (important ammount of money) to get my phone free. It's important for you to know that I have payed for my 8900 4 months ago (not a cheap phne right here!), and I have an invoice for it!!!
So I looked op in the internet and found someone who gave me my MEP2 code (asking me fiorst for my IMEI and MEP codes). I typed in the MEP2 code and could insert my old SIM (Movistar one) with no problems. I could start receiving and making calls instantly!
But.............
Movistar support people couldnt make my data BB service to work with them!
I cannot add and configure email account on my 8900 for example.
After some hours, Movistar support people told me that my BB PIN might be locked by Claro Argentina.
I called Claro again and asked them to free my BB PIN so it could be configured by another carrier. Once again, the answer was: "If you want to do so, you'll have to pay".
Now my question is: If this is MY 8900, why can't I get it to work where I decide??
Is there a way of getting my PIN registered with the other carrier without depending on Claro??
Sorry for my long story, and thanks for your patience.
Regards,
Sergio

My mom typed in the wrong email addy and now her mail is locked. It states that there is mail in her outbox but won't let me get to it. any suggestions? Thanks

My Mom typed in the wrong email address and now her mail is locked. It states that it can't be sent because the server rejected one of the recipient's addresses. The message has been placed in your Outbox. Now when I go to the outbox I can not access it. It is like it's locked. She has and IPad version 1. Any help would be appreciated.

This may be of help.

If you can't use the mail app now - if it is frozen - quit the app and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close mail by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down onthe mail app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If that doesnt help try resetting the iPad. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Please turn off your cpas lock.

Do as the manual says to do and restore the iphone.

Can I lock a folder so that I cannot rename it

Hi everyboy, can I lock af folder so that I cnnot rename it, but still can edit and create files within it?
The problem being that I keep changing the name of a dropbox folder, which then needs to sync again.
Thanks in advance,
Rasmus Henriksen

Copy and paste this command in the Terminal and leave a space after it.
Then, drag your folder onto the Terminal window. It will expand the path out for that folder. Hit return.
chmod +a "group:everyone deny delete"
This will add the Access Control Entry that prevents anyone from deleting the folder, which also prevents renaming. It will still go to the rename mode, but will require you to authenticate to complete the rename.

The "Pin as app tab" produces tabs that do not persist across sessions. I have this problem on two installations, and it's really annoying (since the Permatab Mod no longer works in Ff4). Can you offer any assistance?

TS3092 My Apple bluetooth wireless keyboard caps lock keeps changing so that sometimes the caps are on when the lights on and sometimes the caps are on when the light is off. How do I control this?

My caps lock keeps changing. That is, sometimes the caps are locked and the light is on the key and sometimes the caps are on when the light is off. It changes without my knowing it. Also when I hold the shift key down I hear a double click noise which changes the keys in some way. How do I get it to not change?

Try resetting SMC and NVRAP and then reboot.

Try booting the Recovery Partition. Power off, boot and then hold down the Command and R keys. Is the screen still black? If so it is not a software problem so take it in for diagnosis and repairs. Make a Genius Bar reservation http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ or find an Apple Authorized Service Provider https://locate.apple.com/country .
If you are running Mavericks try upgrading to 10.9.2. It has a fix for black screen problems.

Try using 0000 if the instructions for your Bluetooth don't provide a passkey (PIN). Also, see if this helps:
