Greetings,

I'm new to the BB universe an find it quite hard to get in contact with the right people.

My problem is that I made a mistake last night when I registered an account on the dev zone and can't remember my password.

So basically, I used the "lost password" form that would send me temporary password. Then I proceeded to login with it and right away the system asked me to input my "Old Password" and my new one.

Now, I find the word "old" a bit misplaced as if I'm right, the system is in fact asking for the temporary password...

So I input all that plus my new password and here is what I get :Action Failed. Please Contact Help Desk.

I'm not sure who or what is the help desk, there is no number or email provided on that page and all emails I got from the system did not include any way for me to contact someone.

I'm really lost here.

Anyway, thank you in advance for any insights on what I'm doing wrong or where I could go to solve the problem.

Also, when I'm logged with the temporary password, wherever I try to go I get some infinite loading animation on every pages including my account. Might be an issue with my browser but you should probably check if that's normal.

Regards,

F.M

Still here.

10 people saw this, no help yet. I'm wasting time when i could be working on the alpha device... I just need to know where to go or who to ask help.

EDIT :

OK, just tried the password recovery system again and this time it ... worked. It would have been nice though to have a simple word like "we're working on it" or something but thanks anyway.

Hi The Slider!

It's good to know that you're issue is resolved. This is official support forum by RIM. But this is a user to user based community forum. RIM representatives may or may not answer to any specific query. Hence, acknowledgement like, "we're working on it" is not an option! I hope you understand that.

I understand.
May I ask then how we are supposed to get help from officials ? In my case, this was the only option as no support email or phone number are provided on the website (at least, I didn't find them at the time). : s

Hey there TheSlider,

If you should run into issues like this again, here are a couple of places you can check:

Just a tip... because the index shows "10 views" doesn't mean TEN actual humans viewed it... there are search engine which crawl forums creating search indexes, etc. As a matter of fact, no humans might have viewed it at that time, mainly because you post this is a poor section for the topic you had.

Anyway, good luck, now you know!
