Pearl 8100-Should the BBpin at the back of the phone match the BB pin programmed in the phone

I have a BB pearl 8100. My phone was purchased refurbished. I was informed by an unlocker that my phone was refurbished by blackberry and it appears as if they had disabled the pin (at the back part of the phone ) and reprogrammed the phone with   a new pin. As such my phone is useless and can only be used for basic mobile services. i have been unsuccefull in applying a data plan on my phone.
 Is this true? Is there anything that can be done?

No, PINS are not recycled.
It's more likely that O2 never blacklisted it.

  • Recently my iPad3 and iPhone5 stopped synching automatically to iCloud. Around the same time I backed them both up to my Macbook Pro and installed the iOS6 update. Any thoughts or help is appreciated!

    Recently, I noticed that my iPhone5, iPad 3 and iPod Touch 4th Gen stopped backing up to the iCloud automatically despite ALL of them doing so previously, without a single problem. A few weeks ago I bought a Macbook Pro and I backed up all 3 devices to it a couple times (and they still backed up to the iCloud by themselves without a problem). A few days ago, I noticed that ALL 3 OF THEM stopped backing up to the iCloud automatically. Around the same time, I backed them up to my Mac and I also downloaded the iOS6 update. I'm not sure what is wrong. Has anybody else experienced this type of problem? I'm NOT very familiar with MAC computers as this is my first one and I've been learning a lot as I go. I don't know if I did something in the setting's of iTunes when I backed the devices up that could have caused the decives to stop backing up to the iCloud automatically. I did notice on my previous laptop (a Gateway) and on this one (the MacBook Pro) that on each device, I had to go into "Setting's" on each device and turn the "iCloud Backup" back to the  "On" position! That was right after I backed them up to each computer. I attempted to fix it yesterday by adjusting the setting's in iTunes, but nothing worked. If anyone can help, I would sincerely appreciate it. Thank you!!!

    Ok, I can try those things this afternoon. I have to leave now and won't be able to try for several hours. I'll let you know how things turn out. Thank you again. Also, I am not sure what DNS Setting's are regarding the router and how to change them. Thank you again for trying to help me with this. One side note. I noticed yesterday on another post regarding this topic, a man said he changed his iCloud email from one to another. I have two. One is and @me.com address and one is an @icloud.com address. I switched them around the other day. One device had @me.com as the one the email one be sent from (I think that was the phone) and I believe the iPad 3 had @iCloud.com as the other. Well, I switched them both to @icloud.com. In the post I mentioned a man said that he did that to his, and it worked. That was a few days ago and this was around the same time I began noticing the devices not synching to iCloud like they should. Right now I have for the iCloud email account (on both the iPhone and the iPad) @iCloud.com as the setting that any emails from that account would be sent from and the @me.com is also turned to the "On" position on both devices. I figured that if I'm sending an email from an iCloud account it should say "@iCloud.com" after it rather than "@me.com" after it. I just did that so everthing was the same on both devices and out of personal preference. No other reason really as I don't ever use the account to email anyone and have never given either address to anyone. Only Apple has them and they sent a couple things initially and I never receive anything on that account (for the most part). Ocasionally I get something from Apple and that's a rarity. I don't know if that may factor in at all or not. It did for one gentleman. Thank you randers4!

  • Over the years I have backed up my ifoto albums on discs. Now with the new ifoto in 10.7.5 I can't see the fotos from five year old discs--only a dotted line outline of the fotos, all black and white; no images. What gives? and how can I view them?

    Over the years I have backed up my ifoto albums on discs. Now with the new ifoto I cannot see any fotos when I insert the 'old' discs, just dotted lines around where the foto should be. How can I view the fotos? They were backed up for security, but now they are so secure I can't view them! Help!

    If you're running iPhoto 9.5 you'll need to follow these directions in order to view disk created by previous versions of iPhoto: 
    1 - Copy the library from the disk to the Desktop.
    2 - Double click on the iPhoto Library Upgrader tool to launch it  and select the library on the desktop to convert.
    3 - Once that is done you can open it with iPhoto 9.5.

    Make that four.
    If you have any commercially advertised/available antivirus software installed on your Mac, completely uninstall this per the instructions on the AV developer's website.
    Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X and can negatively affect OS X performance and operation.
    Do you have apps like MacKeeper or any other maintenance apps like CleanMyMac 1 or 2, TuneUpMyMac or anything like these apps, installed on your Mac? These types of apps, while they appear to be helpful, can do too good a job of data "cleanup" causing the potential to do serious data corruption or data deletion and render a perfectly running OS completely dead and useless leaving you with a frozen, non-functional Mac.
    Plus, these type of apps aren't really necessary. They really aren't.
    There are manual methods to clear off unnecessary data off of your Mac that are safer and you have complete control over your Mac and not just leave a piece of auto cleaning software in charge of clearing off data off of your Mac.
    Their potential of causing OS X issues outweighs the implied good and benefits these types of hard drive or memory "cleaning" apps are written to do.
    Plus, the software companies that write these apps make it hard to easily uninstall these apps if something DOES go wrong and these apps work in a way where you have no recovery or revert function to return your Mac back to its former, working state in the event something does go wrong.
    It is best to never, EVER download and install these types of apps.
    The risk to your system and data is too great a risk!
    Search the web to learn how to correctly and properly uninstall these kinds of apps.
    They all uninstall differently.

  • The green forward and back arrows under File and Edit disappeared after I downloaded the new Firefox Toolbar. How do get them back?

    The green arrows for page forward or back at the top left under File and Edit disappeared after I downloaded the new Firefox toolbar (for 3.6) and were replaced by Most Visited, Getting Started and Latest headlines Icons, which I have little use for. How do I get the Original Toolbar back?

    Is the Navigation Toolbar not being displayed? See below.
    <u>'''Can't see the Menu Bar'''</u> (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)?
    Turning the Menu Bar on and off is a new feature in version 3.6.
    ''(~~red:Linux & OSX see~~: [[Menu bar is missing]] )''
    <u>''Windows'' Method 1.</u> '''''Hold down''''' the key and press the following letters in this exact order: V T M then release the key
    <u>''Windows'' Method 2.</u> Tap the F10 key, while the Menu bar is visible, choose "View > Toolbars", click "Menu Bar" so that a check mark is placed next to Menu Bar
    <u>''Windows'' Method 3.</u> Tap and release the key. The Menu Bar will be displayed; then choose ~~red:V~~iew > ~~red:T~~oolbars and click on ~~red:M~~enu Bar so that a check mark is placed next to Menu Bar
    The Menu Bar should now be displayed permanently, unless you turn it off again using View > Toolbars. Check mark = displayed, NO check mark = not displayed.

  • After sorting photos into albums, the albums disappeared on me. I dragged and dropped the photos and went back to check that they were in place before exiting the program. When I went back, the folder was there but no albums. Help!

    Working on an IMac - with IPhoto v.9.6 
    This is my first experience with IPhoto... trying to move files from a PC over to a Mac.
    I don't have a ton of photos but I created about 6 albums - standard albums - and dragged and dropped individual photos into each of the albums. I named each of the albums as well so I would know what was in each. After i was finished, I created a folder called 2014 and moved each of the albums into that folder. Before moving ANY of the albums, I opened each of them up to make sure that all the photos I wanted in each were indeed there - and since there were some errors on my part, I deleted any duplicates first. SO, I KNOW the photos were actually in each of the albums BEFORE i moved them into the 2014 folder.
    My intention was to then delete the photo files in my document file but once I got there I thought I would go back and double check the IPhoto file just to make sure... and the pictures were NOT in the albums where I had placed them... is there a need to save this before you move on and if so, to where and how? I was under the impression that once files were moved to albums, they remain there.
    The photos are still in the photo library but unsorted now again... I cannot even open the 2014 folder at this point.
    Thanks for any help!!

    Was back on IPhoto this morning. The folder did not open at all so I deleted it. Beside Albums, nothing showed at all. It was like I had done no work at all except to import my photo folder. Nothing was in my trash bin either.
    I started again and created one album at a time. I dragged and dropped photos into the album and exited out of IPhoto, opened up other programs and then returned to IPhoto to see if the album was still there and it was this time. I created a second album and did the same thing. This time, for some reason, the albums seem to be staying in place. I am not doing anything differently than last time. After creating three albums, I created a folder called 2014 and dragged and dropped the three albums into the folder and exited IPhoto. They were still there when I returned - YEAH! It seems to be working - for now! I am keeping my fingers crossed that my photos are not going to disappear but I am not going to delete my photo folder from my files just in case!
    Thanks for the suggestions but this may just have been a funny glitch... not sure what happened. I didn't change anything or do anything differently this time except that I am doing it one album at a time and exiting the program between creating each of them and coming back to check... very strange.

  • The passcode lock code at the iPhone 4 was broken into by a program from Internet. ( By connecting the phone to a PC that program tells the passcode) Does someone knows how to prevent unauthorized opening of iPhone? How to secure the passcode ?

    My daughter has an iPhone 4 secured with passcode lock. A visitor in their house took her unattended iPhone, connected to the PC, from a certain program got her pascode and did open her phone to go through her private messages. Does someone knows how to prevent this? How to secure the Phone from unauthorized opening?
    Thanks in advance for all suggestions!!!

    Hi igmusla,
    It seems someone has stolen your daughters phone there is an application called FindMyiPhone if she had location services on and the thief hasn't disabled it you can possibly track the phone down. Sadly you cannot stop the thief from gaining access to her phone and personal information. Please report your phone stolen to your local police station and call Apple aswell, they can possibly put a lock on your phone aswell as put it into a carrier block which prevents the thief from calling anyone or putting a new sim card in it.

  • When opening a pinned program from the taskbar the programs opens in a new icon in the taskbar.

    Hey
    In some special occasions, I have the problem that when you press an pinned icon the program is not "grouped" with the pinned icon, but opens in a new icon, please see this image to better understand:
    http://misc.norphf.dk/PinnedIcon.bmp
    As you can see in the picture, the properties of both icons are alike
    In this case I have manually changed the icon to add the "4twhpv3 dl", but I also have the problem with e.g. Active Directory Users and Computers 32BIT path "%windir%\SysWOW64\dsa.msc" it works with the normal ADUC started form "control panel" (I use the 32
    bit version to get an extension to work).
    Can someone help with this?
    Regards Lars Mortensen

    Doesn’t affect functionality?! - It sure does, with my Active Directory Users and Computers, which I have lying on win+7 every time I press win+7 it opens a
    new window instead of using the currently opened, that’s not very functional....
    But found a solution myself
    If I create a shortcut, and changes this shortcut, places that shortcut on a local disk (Network locations/mapped drives doesn't work) then I can right click that
    shortcut and "Pin to taskbar", then the program opens in the same icon and does not create a new.
    Hopes this is understandable.

  • Pinning Programs to the Taskbar via unattend.xml

    Trying to pin the following programs to the taskbar buy adding them in the "amd64_Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup__neutral"of the specialize pass of unattend.xml file used by SCCM\OSD in the "Apply Operating System' step.
    -<TaskbarLinks>
    <Link0>%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office\Microsoft Word 2010.lnk</Link0> <Link1>%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office\Microsoft Excel 2010.lnk</Link1> <Link2>%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start
    Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office\Microsoft Outlook 2010.lnk</Link2>
    </TaskbarLinks>
    I edited the unattend file using WSIM tool and every other setting I applied  using the file has worked but these just dont show up on the taskbar.
    Weird thing is if i manually pin say Word for example  to the taskbar after the OSD deployment is complete and hover the mouse over it it will display as Microsoft Word 2010 (2) as if it is the 2nd time the program has been pinned to the taskbar even
    though you can only see one of them. same for Excel and Outlook but if I add say Access it will not have the (2) after it
    So it's like the settings from the unttend file are working somewhat as Win7 thinks there is already a shortcut there but they are just not displaying...
    I've seen others saying this can only be done when syspreping and call the unattend at that time but if that is true why is it in the "amd64_Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup__neutral" Components of WSIM?

    I presume you are not also configuring any of the same links in the StartPanelLinks? (I have heard that it sometimes causing conflicts).
    I agree the Deployment guys stuff is heavily MDT-centric but in this instance all that is required to use their script is to copy the ZTIUtility.vbs
    (from the scripts folder in toolkit package) and no environment changes. However you don't even need to do this as you could simply adapt their code snippet and put into a vbs file (A bare bones example of this is shown below but with no error checking or
    logging, which is built into the Deployment Guys sample script).You could configure this to be run once by each user when they first logon (e.g. via ActiveSetup or RunOnce registry key) .
    Const CSIDL_COMMON_PROGRAMS = &H17
    Const CSIDL_PROGRAMS = &H2
    Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
    Set objAllUsersProgramsFolder = objShell.NameSpace(CSIDL_COMMON_PROGRAMS)
    strAllUsersProgramsPath = objAllUsersProgramsFolder.Self.Path
    Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(strAllUsersProgramsPath & "\Microsoft Office")
    Dim arrShortcuts
    arrShortcuts = Array("Microsoft Office Word 2010.lnk", _
    "Microsoft Office Excel 2010.lnk", _
    "Microsoft Office Outlook 2010.lnk")
    Dim i, objShortcut
    i = 0
    For Each objShortcut In arrShortcuts
    Set objFolderItem = objFolder.ParseName(arrShortcuts(i))
    PinToTaskBar(objFolderItem)
    i = i+1
    Next
    Sub PinToTaskBar(FolderItem)
    For each verb in FolderItem.Verbs()
    If verb.Name = "Pin to Tas&kbar" then
    verb.DoIt()
    End If
    Next
    End Sub
    Thanks you very much I will give this a shot.
    But no i was not trying to add anything to the StartPanelLinks, just want to add 3 items to taskbar (which I understand 3 is the limit). Frustrating that you have to resort to scripts when the setting to do it appears to be
    there for you to use in the WSIM setting  but it just doesn't work

  • (I-Pad) I have rent a v film and received a message that the movie will expire in two days but can't close the message window anymore, hence I have no access to any other program on the I-Pad anymore

    I have rent a film and received a message from I-tunes that the film will expire in two days. Even though I have confirmed the message by pressing ok the message window is not closing anymore, hence can't use anz other program of the I-Pad 2 anymore. Does anzbody in the forum experienced anything similar? If yes what is the solution to it?

    Quit all apps and restart the iPad. Then try the video in the video app.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps 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 on any 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.
    If by some chance you cannot go to the home screen, force quit iTunes by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears. Let go of the sleep button and then press and hold down on the home button until iTunes closes. Then restart the iPad as described above.

  • I want the old download display back! Library font is too small, do NOT want the sidebar!

    Just upgraded to 20.0 on XP SP3 - not interested in 'library' display; font is too small to read, do not need/want the sidebar, and need/want the % complete to show as it did in the old download display.
    Also, how do I turn off the distracting and stupid fade-in/fade-out large green arrow on download completion - again not something I'm interested or have any use for.

    I haven't tried it myself, but check out the solution in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/955204 Got new version, want to go back to previous download box, the new one has no history and doesn't show speed of download, how do I go back?]
    The green arrow, like other toolbar controls, can be hidden by using the Customize feature. Kick that off by doing either of these:
    * right-click a blank area of the Tab bar > Customize
    * View menu > Toolbars > Customize
    Drag the unwanted arrow into the dialog with the other unused buttons, the click Done.
    Does that fix it?

  • When using the right mouse button in Yahoo mail inbox (Firefox 8.0.1, Win 7, Yahoo Mail Plus) the Firefox navigation window (Back, Forward etc...) is on top of the Yahoo email menu (Open, Print, Reply etc...). This happens in Firefox safe mode as well.

    This also happened in Windows XP which I was using until recently.
    The Yahoo mail menu is there but the Firefox menu is on top of it. I tried Firefox safe mode with everything disabled and the problem still happened. I tried Yahoo mail in IE 9 and the right mouse button works correctly.

    Can you attach a screenshot?
    *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
    Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
    You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br />

  • I have all of the boxes checked under "Tabs" and am unable to open a new tab without it closing the current tab. My laptop allows multi tabs in its Firefox program with the same exact set up. What can I do to resolve this?

    This is everything I know about this problem.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

    How do I remedy this situation?

    It most definitely is the browser that is causing most of the problems. I have used Firefox so long, I can't even remember. Maybe since its beginning. But today is a sad day. I gave up on it. I can't accomplish anything and end up spending hours troubleshooting. I see I am not alone. I am so sick of it "not responding." It's simply not worth it to spend so much time trying to make the thing work, so I can actually do something. Installed, removed, reinstalled numerous times, and I can't fix your software on my Win 7 Pro machine. No problems with IE or Chrome. So. as much as I hate Google Update, Chrome has won the test. Sad, sad day for me to lose Firefox, but it just does not work on the Win 7 machine. I don't have the same issues with the XP machine and have exactly all the same add-ons. Keep it up developers and you will have no Win 7 users at all.
