Help" Mobile won't accept password!

Is there a "forgotten your password" button?

Could you be entering a O where maybe it should be a zero or vice versa ? Happens to me a lot with passwords. Sorry not much help.

There are no buttons at all, just "enter your password" followed by "incorrect password" I typed it in very carefully, because I've been caught out that way before! After three errors, it said "Try again after 1 minute" next time "Try again after 2 minutes " then try again after several hundred thousand minutes, so I can't even try any more things I might have mistyped.

I can't find a pinhole to stick a paperclip into either, to do a hard reset and lose everything saved (phone numbers, email addresses, notes, internet links, messages)

Apparently Nokia are very security conscious, so that thieves can't unlock it!

Have you looked up your Nokia phone on line? There's usually a Help or Frequently Asked Questions or maybe a forum where you can ask for help.

If you have a contract take it into the nearest shop. Or one of those 'we fix everything' stalls. There is usually a clever clogs who can advise. Good luck. Frustrating that's for sure.

You could try leaving the password box completely blank & then touching "log in". My laptop always asks for a password but I've never set one & just log in by touching the log in button

But I had set a password, just this morning, because the phone advised me to! However, I did a reset as described on the net (whatever did we do without it?) and once the phone was on speaking terms with me again I started all the initialising of everything. Signing into my microsoft account seemed to put all the phone numbers etc back into place, so I am back almost to where I was. The notebook stuff has gone so I'll need to re-enter it. Huge sigh of relief! Thanks for all your replies.

Phew - what a relief. Sometimes I think that we'd be better off going back to pen and notepad but I love my gadgets too much

Same with banks - nothing wrong with a biscuit tin under the bed.
