Ask the person you bought it from for the password, and don't screw up 10 times.

It looks intense, but if you read it through and take your time you'll be fine
Good Luck and Welcome aboard

Hmm, I don't know if this is an IT policy thing, it might be just a regular password.

EDIT: It is possible to put a password on a non-BES BB, correct?

[uncheels23]

Yes smaug you can password protect it pipdave when is it prompting you for the password ?

thx for your input

[pipedav]

password i can do I just dont want to. it promts everytime it locks out

[smaug]

Oh you know the password? Then:

Options -> Security Options -> General Settings -> Disable Password

[pipedav]

it wont let me do that smaug its not an option it has a red lock next to it if that helps

[amazinglygraceless]

Then that is an IT Policy issue and you will need to remove that.

Why don't people deal with that before selling the phone to someone?

[smaug]

Oh yeah, the red lock is an IT policy. Go check out the post amazing linked in #4. And yeah, it's pretty crappy of someone to sell a phone that has an IT policy on it.

No fear on this. It took the cjcarbone that long because he had to work
the whole thing out. He saved the rest of us in that thread 4-5 hours
of going through the same. You'll be ok. I know firsthand
