Verizon Registrati​on Software

What does the "Verizon Registration Software" do ?  This is the download that is started when you go through the web dialogs starting at  http://activate.verizon.net and you choose "I ordered Verizon FiOS Internet Service."  .  You are instructed to run this .exe file after download.
First or all, I was only trying to reach the Verizon FIOS online billing and payment portal for my FIOS account.  Going through the registration for that sent me to http://activate.verizon.net .   I'm guessing that this FIOS online account management portal thinks that I need to activate my recently installed FIOS service.  I can't imagine why an .exe needs to be launched to activate anything - especially just to gain access to my online account management.  The FIOS service itself (triple-play) is already active and operating fine.
How can I get access to online account management without running a mysterious .exe on my computer ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try creating an account on MyVerizon.com if you do not have one. The exe for account activation I believe runs you through your new Email account configuration and allows you to choose what other software you wish to load as part of your account. MSN was offered at one time, then Yahoo, and now Windows Live which can be had for free anyway. Once you have a MyVerizon account you can go to your the Internet account tools and setup your primary and sub accounts for Email. It all depends if you wish to have these other add on options or not. https://my.verizon.com/central/vzc.portal?_nfpb=tr​ue&_pageLabel=vzcp_mat_Primary
On the MyVerizon.com site there is an option to register now. You will probably need your account information. It has been many years since I did mine.
Oh one more thing. Welcome to the community. Are you a Star Trek fan? Or just like lots of data?

  • Tethering a G4 with a Verizon phone or software

    I have an old but faithful G4 powerbook with OSX 10.4 and I'm paying Verizon a bundle every month for my phone plus for a wireless access device. Actually the rep who sold me my Motorola Q told me it would tether as a modem to my G4, but the software wasn't made available.
    Someone led me to another company that does this, but they just emailed me and said they only work with newer Macbooks.
    I have to have Verizon cell service because I'm in a very remote desert location and all the other servers don't do as well out here (otherwise I would have gotten an iPhone). BTW, my access card works great out here. I need it because there is no cable or DSL service in our community. (We're lucky to have water and electricity.)
    By any chance does someone know of a Verizon phone or software that will let me tether for Internet service?

    Say you were to jailbreak your phone. Not recommended by Apple, but definitely not illegal to do as well.
    An app called MyWi4.0 sets up the phone to be a wifi hotspot or even a tethered modem. It costs around $20, a one time fee..
    Don't do this if you aren't on unlimited data, or suffer more consequence than just a voided warranty (jailbreaking).

  • Cannot download the Verizon wi-fi software

    I recently (as in 4 weeks ago) upgraded to the 25/25 FiOS package, however all attempts to download the software for the Verizon wi-fi software are proving elusive.
    I follow the instructions and go to Verizon.net and click "See if I'm eligible for Wi-Fi" and get redirected to Verizon.com and my account, with no ability to download the software. http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/FiOSInternet/Networking/Setup/Wi-Fi/124672.htm <-- does not work for me.
    I click on "Register for Wi-Fi" and I'm directed to my accounts page, with no ability to download the software. I try what this page describes, again I'm not being given the option to download the software http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Wi-Fi-Software-Download/m-p/191919 <-- does not work for me.
    I'm beginning to think that when I upgraded 4 weeks ago to the 25/25 FiOS package, Verizon didn't update their software indicating that I was now eligible for the Roaming Wi-Fi package too. Trouble is, if I click "Email" to contact Verizon, it asks for my zip code and then does nothing either.
    Running: Windows 7 Professional and IE 8
    Any direct links to the software package? Verizon shouldn't make it so elusive to download this software.

  • How do I add more fonts to my Firefox Verizon Yahoo email software for a larger/better selection?

    The font style choices available for Firefox Verizon Yahoo email are very limited. I would like to have a bigger selection of email fonts available for use, Where can I obtain additional fonts? If they are available, how do I install them?

    The font list is provided by Yahoo Mail, not by Firefox. Yahoo probably offers a limited selection of fonts because the fonts won't work unless they are also installed on all the recipients' computers.

  • Verizon aircard a solution for desktops in rural area?

    OK, to begin with, I am nearly totally in the dark as far as aircards and Internet service via Verizon is concerned. Having said that, here's my situation: We have moved to a rural area here in Kentucky in which the only Internet service available is dialup. There is no cable service in the area, and Windstream is the local landline phone provider.  Their DSL is a couple of miles from us, but they have NO plans to extend it to our area so it does us no good.  In the past I lived in a city where I had Time Warner cable Internet.  I'm obviously aware of HughesNet, but after researching it, I've gathered that it basically amounts to paying 80-120 a month after the trial period, but still having limitations on usage.  (Compared to 30 bucks a month for unlimited cable Internet back in town, those were the days!)  Anyway, I'd like some opinions from some of you who are knowledgeable.  Is there an option with Verizon that would work for me, and would be better than HughesNet?  I do know that 4G is not in this part of Kentucky yet.  However, my cell service is with Verizon and I always get full bars of service at home, so I wouldn't think signal strength would be an issue.  If it would be possible to use an aircard here, then my next question would be this:  We have two desktops.  Is there a way to network using a USB aircard, or would we be looking at having to unplug it and take it to the other PC every time?  Thanks in advance!

    kentucky77: I was in your same shoes about 6 months ago--no DSL/cable, not even a phone line; previously with a local WISP (long-range WiFi) that was massively oversubscribed.  I was considering satellite. When Verizon 4G came to town, I decided to try it, and I'm glad I did. 3G/4G has its quirks, but it sounds like your best option. It certainly was mine.
    As the previous poster suggested, the first thing you need to do is check the coverage maps. If you have 3G coverage, then the next step is to stop by a local Verizon store and check again (they claim to have more detailed coverage maps).  Based on your phone coverage, it sounds like you should be OK.
    Next, you'll need to decide which modem or hotspot to get. I don't know if 3G-only devices are still available, and none of the 4G devices are perfect, so I don't really know which one to recommend. I purchased the Pantech UML290, and I'm generally pleased with it now that I have it plugged into a 4G router and now that I'm using an external antenna. (For me, connecting the modem directly into a computer's USB port was a nightmare in random disconnections and random Windows and Verizon Access Manager software errors.) Also, I'd suggest getting a device with an external antenna port, just in case you need a better signal.
    If you can get a signal at home with the modem, you should check your signal strength--or at least the download and upload speeds--to make sure you have a decent connection. If not, there are numerous 3G antennas and boosters available. (For example, http://3gstore.com/category/443_412_antennas.html.) Note that poor 3G speeds may be due to an overloaded tower, so check your signal strength if you can; many here can advise on how to do this in VZ Access Manager.
    If the signal strength and speeds are good, there are several ways to share the connection:
    (1) The easiest option is to purchase a 3G/4G router. With such a router, you plug the modem into the router, and then your computers connect to the router via either WiFi or ethernet. A Google search should yield many results. I have the Nexaira BC2 router.  Make sure whatever you get supports your model modem.
    (2) If you have a machine that has Windows 7, you can download and use the freeware program Connectify. This program will turn a computer with a WiFi card into a hotspot (WiFi router). So, with this option, one computer would have the Verizon modem plugged into it, and then all other computers would connect via WiFi to this "hotspot" computer. I used this option at an RV park once; it worked quite well, but required that the "hotspot" computer always be on.
    (3) Another option is to use Windows' Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) software or a Mac box with equivalent sharing software. I initially did this with an XP computer. I plugged the Verizon modem into the computer, plugged the computer into a WiFi router, and then all other computers connected to the router. I didn't like this option because it was difficult to set up, and sometimes ICS failed to assign an IP address to the WiFi router; it was a pain.
    Options (2) and (3) both require that you run Verizon Access Manager, which I dislike. As I said, using VZAM was a nightmare in random disconnections and random software errors. Some have avoided this by using a dialup script to connect to the Verizon network.
    My biggest hurdle throughout this whole process was getting a decent signal, which required mounting an antenna in my attic.
    Good luck, and let us know what you decide.
    Cheers,

  • Verizon iPhone - mobile hotspot and other questions about the data options

    I just ordered the Verizon iPhone. Can anyone explain the options here:
    1) Unlimited corporate email & Web (business and personal email) vs. Unlimited email and web for smartphones (personal email) - what's the difference?
    2) "3G Mobile Hotspot 2GB" - does this mean that there's no way I can share my 3G connection via wifi without paying the extra $20/month?? How about tethering to a single computer (USB, BT, or WiFi) - does that also require this extra option?
    3) equipment protection - what's the difference between Extended Warranty, Asurion Wireless Phone Protection, and Total Equipment Coverage?
    thanks in advance,
    Mike

    Hi
    Regarding your #2 question; yes, you must pay $20/mo to use the 3G Hotspot aspect of the iPhone, same as with any of Verizon's phones that offer this feature such as the Droid X, HTC phones, etc. And, there is NO additional charge to tether it to your computer; it's $20/mo regardless. You can still use the iPhone's WiFi feature to search the web which is part of the regular data plan. We're only talking about paying the $20/mo for the "up to 5 devices" jumping on your phone as a hot spot.
    I'm an Apple fan, have my MacBook Pro, but my phone is a Droid X. I've been a Verizon member since a year before they became Verizon. Additionally, I am part of the Verizon & Motorola test forum; testing new software updates as they come along.
    Something you should know about Verizon's 3G Hot Spot feature; it has issues. Those of us in the Motorola & HTC forums have experienced identical issues with regard to the 3G Hot Spot feature; it disconnects every 2 minutes, even when you are actively surfing the net. Verizon & Motorola Support have been very helpful to provide what they believe are fixes, including: changing the channel, hard resets, clearing cache, etc. It does not work. Most of us believe, this is NOT a Verizon issue, but a phone maker issue.
    I also have Verizon's MiFi 2200. It costs $59/mo and is purely a hot spot device; again up to 5 devices. I use it at home, for my lap top and for those who need connectivity. It outperforms the 3G hot spot feature of the Motorola & HTC phones by leaps & bounds, and I suspect it will out perform the 3G hot spot feature on the iPhone. Additionally, you get 5GB of download with the MiFi which Verizon is planning on offering increases to 8GB & 10GB. There is NO plan to increase the 2GB download limitation on the 3G Hot spot of the iPhone & other phones, and anyone who does basic software downloads & pics, knows 2GBS is not a lot space.
    So, I would recommend not paying the $20 until this is resolved. If you do, you could pay $39 more for a total of $59/mo for the MiFi, download the software to you home computer & notebook, and end up canceling your home internet service. I did this and have saved $70/mo in my total utilities.
    One other important note: Verizon's VZManager Software for their phones & MiFi. If you did pay the $20/mo for the iPhone and decided to tether to your USB port (for power while using) and you were to use the 3G hot spot feature, it will NOT work on 64 Bit computers, regardless if you are using the WiFi feature or directly using VZManager. The MiFi has this same issue. It will only work on 32 Bit when tethered. So, you'd have to reboot your computer to 32 Bit, if you have that ability. On a Macbook Pro, simply restart holding down the "3" & "2" keys.
    I have no idea why Verizon can't simply upgrade the firmware, even recent firmware upgrades have not resolved this. Most new computers are 64 Bit now.
    Despite this, I use my MiFi 100% untethered and carry my charge cord in my bag as it also works on my Droid, and I presume they may do the same for the iPhone; reduces the need for multiple power cords.
    I really looked forward to the 3G feature of the Motorola & HTC phones, but honestly, it's just not there yet; mine was slower than Dial Up, and I'm not kidding.

  • Cosmos VN250:  7770000001 data message from verizon wrecked my phone.  I have an old plan that Verizon really wants to end.  Even though I have data messages blocked, this number was sent to my phone by Verizon and while trying to receive it, it broke.

    Has anyone had any kind of issue with their phone breaking after getting a message from Verizon, thereby requiring them to get a new phone, and hence, a new plan, that will be more expensive?  I have an old plan, the Singlerate West 300 that they have been trying to get me off of for years.  It's a great deal.  Yesterday, after coming back into the country, my phone started to retrieve a message from 7770000001, which I found online is from VCAST/Verizon, and while trying to retrieve it, the screen suddenly failed so that now only the top quarter of the screen is visible, making it impossible to text or see contacts.  I've been working on it on-line and with Verizon all day and my only options will all lead to me getting a new plan that is more expensive, even if I replace it with the same phone.  New rule - you can't renew an old plan if it's not currently being offered.  Is Verizon sending out software that can ruin a phone requiring a new one, with a new plan that's more expensive?

  • Verizon 755p; using Versamail; cant sync contacts & calendar

    I am having a sync conflict....
    I HAD been able to sync Contacts & Calendar via USB but once I started using Treo for emails, have been unable to sync ever since. Very frustrating. Hours upon hours trying to figure it out. 
    Went to advanced settings in Wireless Sync (to "Enable other sync apps") but still can't sync to Palm Desktop. I am using Versamail for my two gmail accounts. No need to use Wireless Sync..  Can I just delete WS? 
    Any suggestions please? 
    Post relates to: Treo 755p (Verizon)

    Hello tweetie and welcome to the Palm forums.
    Did you check the Verizon Wireless Sync software for settings that disable wired sync support?  I have a Sprint Treo and I can't test this out for you.  Other posters have reported similar issues and the Wireless Sync software settings are sometimes the cause for the inability to perform a wired sync of calendar and contacts.

  • How do I archive my verizon email folders into zip folders onto my hard drive?

    I have archived my folders twice before into zip folders on my hard drive by using an option in verizon yahoo mail. The last time was last night. However I can not find this option again. Tech support does not know how.
    Thanks 

    Hello Annie3,
    Verizon Yahoo! mail does not archive using win zip presently.  It appears you were using a 3rd party application to do this which is why your not finding it in the Verizon Yahoo! software.  You can however download the messages into a 3rd party POP client software such as Outlook, Outlook express, Eudora, Thunderbird, Incredimail, etc...  You can find more information on the features of Verizon Yahoo! mail in the help section link http://help.yahoo.com//l/us/verizon/mail/

    Hello,   Just in case you missed it.   Verizon Access Manager software (windows 7/xp) steadily increases it's memory use after startup - after several hours it can grab up to 1 GB of memory according to the Windows Task Manager.    I have heard of no updates to fix this issue.  The workaround is to restart the program at least three times a day.   A bit inconvenient.

  • Alternatives to Verizon Wireless Synch?

    no longer receive email on my Treo 755 through Verizon apparently because Wireless Synch is no longer supported. Are there any alternative ways to get email now? I see Versa Mail among possible downloads but don't know if this would work.
    Post relates to: Treo 755p (Verizon)

    Versamail works different than Wireless Sync: it connects directly to the mail server. Wireless Sync could work with webmail accounts that don't allow POP or IMAP access. If your mail account allows POP or IMAP access, then VersaMail has a good chance of working for you.
    If you go into support and look at the Verizon Centro, bonus software downloads, you can get the "full" version of VersaMail (somewhere down the list). I think past threads confirmed that version runs on the 755p, but I don't have any links handy to prove it.
    Any luck?

  • Will be leaving Verizon Wireless after five and a half years...

    Note, people with Verizon please listen and think clearly on this.  I have asked Verizon a question and I can not get a valid response.  My question is:  How can a person pay their bill on time (due date August 15th for instance) when their bill is coming up as being past due on August 1st?  Yes, I will be leaving Verizon Wireless services after five and a half years and I will not be returning EVER.  So people, please, check your bill carefully because it seems that Verizon's billing software has had a few 'glitches' lately and yes, that glitch was apparently corrected for a short time on October 9th (Tuesday after Columbus Day) but has apparently returned.  Apparently Verizon seems to be making too much money bilking people for being past due before the due date and I just can not continue doing business with such a 'money grubbing' company,  And so many 'promises' broken in recent times that I know better than to believe anyone in the company that says "We're here to help".  I know better.  Goodbye and good riddance and please don't ever turn my phones back on, I wish to have some sanity back in my life again and Verizon Wireless is NOT part of that sanity.

    My bill has NEVER come up as being PAST DUE before the due date ECXEPT for the 1 time several years ago when I forgot enter in the new expiration date on my credit card listed in autopay.
    Currently, my bill due on Nov 11 IS NOT listed as past due.
    My guess is if your bill says past due BEFORE your due date is because you did not pay all or some of your last bill.
    Bad news is that other providers will treat you the same way if you do this with them, too.

  • Can I use a Blackberry 8530 from sprint on verizon?

    I have a sprint Blakberry 8530 that was used on the Sprint network. It is no longer active on Sprint.  We have a Verizon Reality that we don't like and want to use the blackberry.  Can I use this phone (the 8530) on Verizon?  And what needs to be done to make it work (if anything)?

    Yes the phone can be FLASHED to verizon-wireless's software. No the company will not aid you in doing so due to their license agreement with the FCC. It states that Verizon Wireless can not activate phones registered to other carriers. This is due to change, but no-one knows when.
    All sprint phones are CDMA. The only carriers that do not provide CDMA phones are T-mobile and At & T.
