Hey Wa_lez,
Welcome to the forums.
Your PIN is unique to your BlackBerry smartphone and is hard coded in at manufacturing. What leads you to believe that someone else is using your PIN number? Can you please provide us with some further details?
Thanks.

Ipod says another ipod user is using the software

I am trying to charge/import, but the message says another user is using the ipod software. I am the only ipod in my home that even uses the software. How can it be confused? What can I do?

try the following:
Close iTunes.
Open the Task Manager.
Select the Processes tab.
Find "iPodService.exe" and click it, then click the End Process button to close it.
Do the same for "iTunesHelper.exe".
Close the Task Manager.

Exchange ActiveSync on a BlackBerry Smartphone device

I work for a LARGE software company in Redmond, WA that is not terribly BlackBerry friendly. I would like to purchase a Pearl 8120 and have it sync with my work email (Exchange server).
Is there a way to configure a BlackBerry device to use Exchange ActiveSync so I can use it for corporate email?
The only support doc I can find that mentions EAS is as follows (near the bottom of the doc)
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB04156&sliceId=SAL_Pub...
It discusses a conflict with using a BES wireless signal (which I don't want) and an EAS signal (which I do want).
Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

As well as NotifySync you should try our product AstraSync from www.astrasync.com. Priced at $49 per user per year (we are happy to post a price on our website, and indeed post to this forum without posing as an individual ) it comes in cheaper than NotifySync.

Another account user is using my apple id as their rescue email. Apple know this but expect me to contact him directly rather that let lim know his error. Seem strange and a recipe for conflict. What do you think?

Another apple account user has put my apple id as their rescue email. Apple know this but expect me to contact him directly rather that let lim know his error. Seem strange and a recipe for conflict. What do you think?

Primary and alternate email addresses need to be verified but a rescue email address doesn't, it can be added to an account and used without being verified (you will get a verify button when adding/changing it, but the system doesn't force it to be verified). I would hope that the person using the email address as their rescue email address will notice that they aren't getting reset emails and that after contacting Support to get their security questions / password reset he/she will check what they've set it to and change it. The OP won't be able to log into the other account as he/she won't know its primary or alternate ids.

Looking to change my BlackBerry ID on the BlackBerry PlayBook

See this KB article: KB26694 How to change the BlackBerry ID on a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet or BlackBerry smartphone
Changing the BlackBerry ID on the BlackBerry PlayBook or BlackBerry 10 smartphone:
In order to change the BlackBerry ID that is associated to the BlackBerry 10 smartphone or a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, a security wipe will need to be performed.
Warning: Performing the security wipe will result in loss of stored data on the smartphone or tablet. Be sure to create a backup and also transfer files to a computer prior to performing the security wipe.
Note: In this scenario, the backup file will not be able to be restored to the device since it will be using a new BlackBerry ID. For more information, see KB31317.
Prior to performing a security wipe of the smartphone or tablet, transfer files to a computer so the files can then be transferred back to the smartphone or tablet after the security wipe is complete and the new BlackBerry ID is configured. See the following links for information:
KB26068 - How to transfer files to and from the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet and BlackBerry 10 smartphone.
Manually synchronize music files to the BlackBerry 10 smartphone or BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.
Import your contacts and calendar appointments from Microsoft Outlook.
To perform the security wipe:
On the BlackBerry 10 smartphone, see KB33591.
On the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, see KB27188.
Once the security wipe has been completed, a new BlackBerry ID can be configured on the smartphone or tablet during the initial setup.

Can I Use Game Center With Another iPad User?

Am I able to play a game simultaneously with another iPad user by using game center? For example, can we play a hangman game against each other from different locations if we do it through game center? And if so, how?
Thank you.

This is possible, however it is not as easy as that.
If you want to allow someone to have access to a purchase you have made on your Apple ID, you must log into their device with your Apple ID and download that purchase..You would then simply log back out again.
Every purchase you make with your Apple ID gives you the licence to store the purchase accross 5 devices.
On the other persons device, go to Settings > Store > Apple ID > Sign Out.
Sign into their device the same way, then go into iBooks > Store > Purchased, and download your book.
Once downloaded, go back into Settings > Store > Apple ID > Sign Out, then sign back in with their Apple ID.

Hello kkawin45
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
You cannot use multiple BlackBerry ID on your BlackBerry 9900 at a same time ! On BlackBerry 7 devices BlackBerry ID is deep integrated with our device . If you want to use a new BlackBerry ID then perform a security wipe , while wiping be sure to Mark everything ( User Installed application , Emails ) but after a full backup .

Error "Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Twitter for BlackBerry Smartphones"

I have a Curve 8300. With OS v4.5.0.81. And I am on a BB Social network plan through my cell providor "Fido".
I mainly use it for Facebook & Twitter and have no problems using either app. However I was prompted for an update for my twitter recently but wasn't near a wifi spot to update. Just decided to update today at home where I do have wifi. However when I go to do the update, it gives me the following error:
"Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Twitter for BlackBerry Smartphones"
I have scoured for answers but haven't had much luck. I tried checking for OS updates. I apparently have the most current one that my phone will support. I uninstalled twitter and then tried to reinstall it via the twitter Icon on my phone. Got the same error. Tried reinstalling it through app world, it installed just fine. However it installed the version that I had previously had. So I went to twitter's settings and checked for updates. It prompted for one as I expected it would. And when I tried to get the update. It gave me that error again. I can use twitter as it is, but I don't see why my phone shouldn't be able to get all the updates for various apps. Is it a software compatability issue? Is it a hardware compatability issue? Is there anything I can do to get the update or do I just have a phone that won't take some app updates?

Hi and welcome to the forums!
The 8300 is not listed in the device upgrade table for Blackberry device OS v5.0. The newer versions of apps like Twitter and Facebook require device OS v5.0 to run correctly. Might be time to consider a new device!

Introducing Enhanced Google Mail plug-in for BlackBerry smartphones

Enhanced Google Mail™ plug-in for BlackBerry® smartphones
Product Overview
The Enhanced Google Mail™ plug-in for BlackBerry® smartphones introduces an advanced level of email service integration for BlackBerry smartphones. It supports additional Google Mail™ features that provide BlackBerry® Internet Service subscribers with broader access to their Google Mail accounts while on the go. The Enhanced Google Mail plug-in is optional. Existing and new Google Mail integrations will continue to function without it.
Note: The Enhanced Google Mail plug-in requires BlackBerry® Device Software 4.5 or later and Google Mail integration within the BlackBerry Internet Service. The Google Mail integration must use IMAP, not POP, to function correctly. Google Mail accounts integrated after March 2009 use IMAP. Deleting an existing account and re-integrating it will ensure that the account is using IMAP.
BlackBerry smartphone users with existing integrated Google Mail accounts must re-associate their email accounts to receive the link to download the Enhanced Google Mail plug-in.
Features
Add and remove labels and stars on email messages
Report spam email messages
Perform local and remote searches
Archive email messages
View related email messages as a single conversation (threaded view)
Note: Synchronization happens in one direction, from the BlackBerry smartphone to the Google Mail account. This means that some changes that take place in the webmail UI are not reflected on the BlackBerry smartphone. These include:
Applying labels and stars to email messages in Google Mail after they are retrieved by the BlackBerry Internet Service.
Labels that are renamed in Google Mail are not applied to the corresponding labels on the BlackBerry smartphone. The new label is synchronized to the BlackBerry smartphone, but does not replace the existing label.
Email messages that are marked as read, archived, or spam in Google Mail are not marked as spam on the BlackBerry smartphone.
Labels cannot be created, renamed, or deleted using the BlackBerry smartphone.

I'm having similar show-stopper issues. I should point out that I'm not actually using an @gmail.com address; I'm using a Google Apps account for my own domain name. Perhaps that accounts for some of my issues. I'm using an AT&T Bold with OS 4.6.0.167 (Platform 4.0.0.217), and I have a BES plan to get mail from my employer (the phone and the AT&T account are mine). I did not upgrade from an old Gmail plugin; I installed the Gmail plugin for the first time.
1) Having messages appear in both the main Messages inbox and the Gmail inbox is not a convenience. It would be nice to be able to segregate these, as with the option to keep SMS/MMS messages out of the main inbox with Messages Options > General Options > SMS and Email Inboxes > Separate.
2) I have a lot of Gmail filter rules that apply labels to incoming messages and "skip the inbox." When I receive one of these messages on my Blackberry, I get a new message notification (asterisk) on both my main Messages inbox and my Gmail inbox. The "skip the inbox" messages are visible in the main Messages inbox, but not in the Gmail inbox (unless I Filter on "All Mail" in the Gmail inbox). To get rid of the new message asterisks, I need to open both inboxes.
The whole reason I choose the "skip the inbox" option is that I don't want to see these messages unless I explicitly filter on that label. It's bad enough that I get them in my Messages inbox, but to have Messages behave one way and Gmail another is nutty.
3) I'm not seeing all of my new Google Apps mail on my Blackberry, even when I choose Filter > All Mail from the Gmail inbox. In the standard Gmail client I see everything; but only selected messages appear on the Blackberry. I haven't been able to pin down what the pattern is. At first it seemed that incoming mail had to have a label applied to it by a filter to appear on the Blackberry, because all the messages I have been able to receive on the Blackberry have had a label. I haven't yet seen any unlabeled message. What what makes it tough to pin down is that I have never received a test message I have sent to myself, and I have tried using my work e-mail, Yahoo Mail, Hotmail and AOL Webmail. 0% success rate sending myself a test message (even when a filter applies a label to these messages); 0% success rate receiving mail that Gmail filters don't apply a label to.
I guess the issue could be with Google's IMAP implementation. I haven't yet looked at my inbox with another IMAP client to see how that looks. I'll try that next.
4) On the topic of IMAP: If that's the interface to Gmail, it seems strange that I can't view my whole inbox. I can only view new mail since the date/time I first set up the Blackberry Gmail plugin. That would make sense for POPmail, but not for IMAP should be able to show me my whole inbox.
Google's Blackberry Gmail app (from m.google.com/mail) has none of these issues, but it has other limitations (no push mail; no HMTL in messages), so I'd use Blackberry's plugin if it worked better. For now I expect to abadon after another couple of days of noodling.

Why do we want a cellular network with a special service plan to connect to the internet via a BlackBerry smartphone?

I always wondered why we need a cellular network with a special service plan to connect to the internet via a BlackBerry smartphone?  This problem is not occuring on smartphones of other brands. Can anyone please explain this to me?
Hasanta

Hello,
The reason is that, with legacy (e.g., pre-BB10) devices, the device itself does not do all of the work to provide you with your services. Rather, there is infrastructure (BlackBerry Internet Service - BIS) hosted at the carriers/BlackBerry that provides linkages between your device and certain services. This includes, among many things, email...unlike non-BB smartphones, the BlackBerry on-device email client is not a "full" email client; it depends on BIS in order to provide the "push" email capability that BBs rely on.
This BIS infrastructure is unique to BlackBerry, and only services BB users. Hence, it costs extra for the carriers to provide services for BB users, and therefore they can demand from their BB users a higher cost dedicated service plan so as to enable those proprietary services for the BB users. (In some markets, there is no extra charge for BIS...but the requirement for BIS nevertheless remains in all markets for legacy BB users.)
So, this is not a "problem" per se...but rather a difference between BlackBerry devices/services and others. One could instead think of it as a "market discriminator", favoring BlackBerry (only for those who desire such, of course).
With BB10 (Z10, Q10, Q5), BIS has been eliminated btw.
Good luck!
