    Blackberry ID wont allow me to accerss my BB account. I can access it on line, and the password is correct - just tells me it's not a valid combination.

    Any idea's?

    Backup the device and run a Security Wipe. Then download the latest version of App World and try again.

    So.. you mean you can not login on your phone. But you can on the web using a PC?

    Thanks, but just in case I'm missing the obvious ( very likely) so I back up my 9900 to my mac, using BB desktop manager, then do the security wipe, and surely if I then reinstall from the desktop manager I'll just end up with everything exactly as it is now?

    No because the Security Wipe really does make a difference!

    Try changing the time settings from automatic to manual (or vice verca). Don't know why, but worked for me a couple of times

    Umarnd - naw, didn't work thanks.

    TrespassersWIf I do the security wipe then restore, will I get all my apps back as they were?

    App World apps yes. Others not backed up by Desktop Manager will need to be re-installed.

    I have the same problem not being able to log into my blackberry id, so I cannot access my phone at all.
    How do I backup my blackberry on my pc? I'm not even sure if I have a desktop manager installed.
