If you complete the steps to reset your password on a computer, the password reset email can only be viewed on a computer and isn't delivered to your device. If you follow the steps to reset your password on your device, the password reset email will be delivered to your device. Complete the instructions in the email to reset your BlackBerry ID password.

What is the difference between my BlackBerry ID username and screen name?

Your BlackBerry ID username is the email address that you use when you log in using your BlackBerry ID. The BlackBerry ID screen name is the name that appears when you submit app reviews in the BlackBerry World storefront.

Why do I need to re-enter my BlackBerry ID password?

After a certain amount of time, if you aren't actively using the app or service that supports BlackBerry ID, you might be prompted to re-enter your password. For example, you might be prompted to re-enter your BlackBerry ID password before you download apps from the BlackBerry World storefront.

You might also be required to re-enter your BlackBerry ID if you change any of your BlackBerry ID information, delete all of the data on your BlackBerry device, or update the software on your device.

Can I sign out of BlackBerry ID and sign in with a different BlackBerry ID

You can only sign in with one BlackBerry ID on your BlackBerry device. If you want to sign out and then sign in with a different BlackBerry ID, you must delete all of the data from your device.
