Z10 and Q10 frequently asking for Office 365 password
I have an AT&T Z10, and a client has a Verizon Z10 and 2 Verizon Q10s. Both of us use Office 365 as our email service. With the lack of BB10 support in BBCS (Blackberry Cloud Service for Office 365) I was forced to set up all these devices on ActiveSync. For the most part this is working OK. However each user has either been prompted for the Office 365 password multiple times in a day, or they don't notice the prompt and the ActiveSync account is marked as invalid on the Accounts list in setup.
I have looked everywhere within the Office 365 administration console and can find nothing related to asking for the password frequently. I did find settings to control if the device has a password, but nothing related to the device prompting for the Exchange password.
I am only annoyed by it, but my client is getting quite frustrated and is questioning whether they will bother upgrading their other 20 Blackberry devices to BB10s, or look at other devices. Either some direction to solve this ActiveSync problem, or a likely date for BBCS to be BES10 would be helpful.
My user with a Q10 has had this same issue with our Office 365 account. Seems to work fine for a few days then randomly stops getting new email. Go in and reenter his Office 365 password and all is well again... for a few days when it seems to lose it again.
We have about 15 iPhone's of various flavor and 3 Android HTC One's with no issues on O365.

When using 6.0 beta and 7.0 beta on my MacBookPro, I am (too) frequently asked for my master password. This doesn't occur in other programs. Do I have some evil code in my Firefox program?
Why I'm asked for my Master Password seems troublesome.Hello Matt, fellow archaeologist :)
Security updates are essential on any and all software, specially your browser. Mozilla is working to streamline the updating process as much as possible, but you shouldn't neglect your own security for a few seconds of "wasted" time.
I hope you do the best for yourself. -
Trying to set up a new macbook air and it is asking for a keychain password
I am trying to set up a new Macbook Air and it is asking for a keychain password. Where do I find one?
There was an option to Cancel the pop up box which I have now done and it has carried on with the set up - so not sure what it was all about.
I am going to the Genius Bar tomorrow so will ask the question!
Thanks for your help Linc. -
How do I recover my password set up when I added AirPort Express to my iMmac a few years ago.. My wife has just purchased an iPad and it is asking for that "forgotten" password to make the Wi Fi connection ?
From the airport express user manual:
If You Forgot Your Network or AirPort Express Password
You can clear the AirPort network or AirPort Express password by resetting AirPort
Express.
To reset your password:
1 Use the end of a straightened paper clip to press and hold the reset button for one
second.
2 Select your AirPort network.
On a Macintosh computer:
=> Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar to select the network created by AirPort
Express (the network name does not change).
3 Open AirPort Utility, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a
Macintosh
4 Select your AirPort Express and click Configure.
5 In the dialog that appears, make the following changes:
 Reset the AirPort Express password.
 Turn on encryption to activate password protection for your AirPort network. If you
turn on encryption, enter a new password for your AirPort network.
6 Click OK.
AirPort Express restarts to load the new settings -
Restored 4s and am now asked for old account password i cant remember

My phone sometimes does not alert me when I get messages from certain people, and is constantly asking me to put in my password for my apple ID. I have only done it once, but the prompt immediately popped up again, and is really just a major nusaince. I don't know what is going on with my phone because it also keeps freezing and won't even lock. It's just so frustrating at times.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

We are wanting to reset our ipod but when we go to erase all content it asks us for a restriction password and we have no idea what that is and dont remember ever setting one up. How do we get around this.?
Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- If you are up to file manipulation see:
How to reset forgotten Restrictions...: Apple Support Communities
As Ana said,
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I changed my hotmail password. iPad2 asks for new password which I type in the box but it won't accept the password. No problem with my iPhone. Help!
Can you access your email account through the web interface from a computer using the new password? If so, you may not be typing in the password correctly in your iPad email client. If not, then you've forgotten your new password. Try resetting the password again from the hotmail web interface.
Oops, just noticed it works on your iPhone. -
is my back up password different from my login password
Enter the Backup Encryption password that you created.
If you did not enable the backup encryption, the backup is corrupt and cannot be used. -
Error installing MS Project Pro for Office 365
I have paid for a subscription to MS Project Pro for Office 365, however, when I try to install the product I am getting an Error 3-4 "Something went wrong".
I have a feeling that it has something to do with the fact that I have Office 365 already installed.
I have tried stopping my AV and the Firewall (as suggested on the related error page (which pops up from the URL presented on the Error Box.
Help?!Gerald,
I have gone back and installed project pro for Office 365 on a number of machines that already had O365 so that should not cause you any issues. Sometimes repairing the exisiting office, then try the install again fixes the issue.
I would second the install all critical updates and reboot, that tends to solve a lot of issues.

Z10 and Q10 not receiving 365 exchange emails
I have a Z10 and a Q10 user who mentioned they are not able to receive Mircrosoft 365 Exchange Online emails. They have to disconnect from the mobile network and reconnect to the mobile network and Exchange emails start coming in.
This issue happens 4-5 times a day for each user. However these two users also had their POP3 account setup on the phones and those emails flow in quite consistently. (thus not an ISP issue)
Other Z10 and Q10 users in the same organization have no such issue. All BB10 users are connecting to Mircrosoft 365 Exchange Online with Exchange ActiveSync. This organization doesn't have BES servers.
Called MS365 support who blames the phones.
Has anyone experienced similar issue?
Thanks!are the users with long names or very complex passwords?
