Password lock when turned on?

Recently went on a trip and found that my Zire 21 battery was completely dead.  I charged it up for 3 hours and now find that it is not locked when turned on.  I have tried dard reset and a soft reset.  I can get it to lock on shutdown, however, when I turn it back on it goes to the icon page.  I should have to enter a password to unlockbut it doesn't.  Any thoughts?

When you tap on the word "never" it will then ask you to enter your password. you must enter the same password you have.
if you have trouble pulling up your keyboard...
Make sure that there is a cursor blinking on the line then Tap ABC on your graffiti area, if still you have trouble pulling up the keyboard, you dont have a choice but to use your grafitti on entering your password.

  • Storm password locks when trying to download from appworld

    HELP!  My storm is about to turn into another "Irene".  Everytime I try to update anything from appworld it asks for the email and password.  Once I type in the password it authenticates then gives me a message that my "Blackberry ID will be locked for "0" minutes for security reasons.  You will not be able to login or request your password until that time has expired."
    How do you fix that??  I am really getting aggrevated with this phone and a DROID is starting to look like a must spend money option.

    I guess everyone is at a loss for help on this one.

  • Can I Disable Password Lock When iPod is Docked in Digital Alarm Clock?

    Hi. I bought a Jensen Docking Digital Clock Radio for iPod and set it up today. When I dock it on the Jensen and set the alarm to turn on and play a song, the password makes the alarm just buzz. I cannot find a way to keep the iPod unlocked -- is there a way to do so? I tried removing the password and cannot using Settings. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Matt,
    I understand your concern, although I wasn’t able to find a way to disable or change these embedded Windows messages.
    With Account Lockout policy enabled, the risk that accounts being hacked has been reduced a lot. In addition, we can monitor security logs to determine whether hacking behaviors exist or not.

  • Password Lock Option Removed

    I need to be able to lock my blackberry with a password and I had to be able to just hold down the A key to do this, but after I downloaded the software upgrade to 5.0.0.508 locks the keyboard, not the phone. Also it's darn near impossible to unlock the keyboard with the mute key because I have a case on my phone. I have to pull the case off to get it to unlock.
    How can I get it back to just the password lock when I hold down the A key? I've tried to go into speed dial keys and update it there, but it won't let me change that one.
    Thanks!

    The posts I’ve seen on the subject all seem to deal with the convenience keys, that is not what I’m looking for.  I’m sorry if I’m missing the “thousands” of posts on this issue, but I can’t find one that addresses my problem.
    Last week, I was able to hold the A key down and, because I have the password enabled, it would lock the phone with password protection.  I could then push any key, and the password prompt would come up so I could unlock the phone.
    However, after I ran the software update this week, now when I hold down the A key – it simply locks the keyboard, not the phone.  Then, the only way to unlock the keyboard is to hold down the mute key – which is really hard to do on my phone because there is a case surrounding it, so I end up having to take off the case to push the mute key and then unlock the phone.
    I want to be able to use the A key to lock the phone with password like I could last week. How do I set this up?

  • I have a MacBook Pro 2008 with 17 inch screen. Experiencing a lock up when turning on power to boot up. While booting up it goes to gray screen with Apple logo and disc spinning icon running and doesn't go to my desktop. Any solutions to the problem?

    I have an early 2009 17 inch MacBook Pro that just went on the fritz. When turning on the power it will go into boot up mode to the gray screen with the apple logo, then the disc icon will be running and will continue running, not allowing to proceed to my desk top screen. It's pretty much locked up at this point where I have to do a forced shut down by holding down the power button. I've tried everything that I know of such as taking battery out and pressing power button for 5 seconds and then reinstalling battery. I've cleaned inside of computer with compressed air duster in can as well as other key commands for resets. I've read that this is a common problem with the earlier MacBook Pros. Is this a problem that I can fix or does it have to be taken in for service? Any solutions to the problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    This could be a software/state problem or a hardware problem.  Here are steps to resolve the former.

  • When I got my ipod I made an account with iTunes from my ipod.yesterday, I made a password lock to get into my ipod and I couldn't get into it even though I did the correct one. Now it says"connect to iTunes" BUT I can't because I never registered. HELP!!

    When I got my ipod I made an account with iTunes right from my ipod.Yesterday, I made a password lock to get into my ipod and I couldn't get into it even though I did the correct one. Now it says"connect to iTunes" BUT I can't because I never registered on the computer. I've tried holding the home and sleep/wake button for 10 sec and then only the home for 5sec and that might have reset it, but it didn't help. If any of you guys know what to do so I can unlock it I would appreciate it VERY much.

    If you haven't done so install iTunes on your computer. http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    Follow the instructions here: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • I recently inherited a macbook pro when my good friend passed away. the screen is password locked. is there any way around the login without knowing the password???

    How can I get past the password locked login without the password

    The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1. You don't own another Mac.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    2. You do own another Mac.
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    Once booted from the disc, the USB device, or Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support.

  • Password lock only when lid closed

    I'm reviving an old thread here to see if this is possible in Lion before I upgrade. Here is the original question from Haiiyaa as he stated it most succinctly:
    Hi,
    I have a MacBook. I am trying to find a way so that the computer prompts me for a password only when i close the lid . Not everytime the monitor goes into screensaver or sleep mode. I have looked for a solution for this all over the web, and it just doesn't seem possible. I am surprised that is the case. Isn't it a little annoying that you have to log in everytime the computer screensaver comes on?
    Especially when I am in battery mode, the laptop goes into sleep mode very quickly. I don't want to log in everytime i need to use the laptop.
    Thanks
    Here are the two threads which covered it in 10.6. The answer was that this can't be done.

    Hi Matthew,
    I'm sorry to say I have no answer, but I'm also searching a solution. Even though it seems to be poorly understood by most people, and appears relatively minor on the surface, I see it as a huge gaping security hole.
    Take for example the following:
    During the evening, I'm at home, around, making dinner and occasionally using my computer. It's open, on my desk, and is secure by the sheer virtue of there being nobody with access to it at that time. It may be hours between uses, but I don't ever want to be bothered for my password.
    But, the moment I step out of the flat, or at a coffee shop, or if my bag is stolen, or when only my roommates are home, I want that thing to be locked. And I want that lock to be really, really easy to engage, in which I think that closing the lid is the simplest, quickest, and most visibe at a glance. No menus, hotkeys, dialogues, delays, etc..
    So in summary, we want the same behaviour, which was really freaking easy in 10.5.x, and has been unceremoniously yanked out from our favourite os.
    Booo!! Hisss!!

    I need to restore my iPhone.  Once in iTunes, I get an error message asking me to use my passowrd to unlock phone. The problem is that I can't get to the password lock screen. All I can get is the iTunes screen or the emergency call only screen.

    yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
    and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
    trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
    no worries

    Today, I got a message from my iphone 4 telling me that my password was expired and that I had to change it.
    Now I am forced to enter a 8 character long password and I cannot turn off the password lock (button is greyed out and does not react) and I cannot change to "simple" code.
    I am so upset that I am considering throwing the bloody thing to the rubbish bin
    Can you help?
