I am new to smartphones and just got a blackberry 9810 for AT&T service. I signed up for BIS, selected a username (lets say PatsBlackberry) and entered an email address I wanted it to sync to.
Now when I go to my phone to set it up it is asking for the blackberry username, however it tells me it is an invalid email address if I just put in the username (PatsBlackberry). So I try the email address I used and it doesnt like that either. I can log into the website with my username and password but not through the blackberry, I have used 5/10 attempts.
My question is what the heck am I missing here? I feel like a dullard.
The email addresses are added fine, its the setup of the blackberry user account on the device taht I am having problems with.
This is what the at&t page says
If you have not already done so, to start contact synchronization, complete the security activation on your BlackBerry� device:
1. On the Home screen, click the Setup icon and click Email Accounts or Email Settings.
2. After you log in, the security activation starts. When security activation is complete, wireless synchronization with your device automatically begins.
It is the login for the security activation that I cant get past.
