The Desktop Manager uses the same password as the phone. A very common error is to use a shifted password without realizing it. For example, you thought your password was "wert" but you actually entered "123(" due to the Alt being on.

You have to enter the password on the BlackBerry to turn off the password. That's a security feature to prevent someone who doesn't know the password from disabling it.
