Blackberry Passport - Manual (Page 40)

BlackBerry ID
A BlackBerry ID gives you convenient access to multiple BlackBerry products and services. After you create a BlackBerry
ID, you can use your email address and password to log in to any BlackBerry product that supports BlackBerry ID. With
BlackBerry ID, you can manage apps that you downloaded from the BlackBerry World storefront and download the apps
when you switch devices. You should sign in with the same BlackBerry ID on all of your BlackBerry devices.
If you previously created a BlackBerry ID, you must use it when you set up your new device instead of creating a new
BlackBerry ID. You can log in to both a tablet and smartphone using the same BlackBerry ID.
Set up a new BlackBerry ID
Tip: It's important to choose a password that you can remember. For your BlackBerry ID username, be sure to use an email
address that you use frequently. Recovery details can be sent to the email address that you use as your BlackBerry ID
username if you forget your BlackBerry ID password. The email address that you use as a BlackBerry ID username doesn't
have to be associated with your BlackBerry device.
1. To create a new BlackBerry ID when you set up your BlackBerry device, on the BlackBerry ID screen, tap Create
New.
2. Complete the instructions on the screen.
Confirm your BlackBerry ID username
When you create a BlackBerry ID, you receive an email message that allows you to confirm the email address that you use
as your BlackBerry ID. If you forget your BlackBerry ID password, you can reset it easily if you confirmed the email address
that you use as your BlackBerry ID username.
If you didn't confirm the email address that you use as your BlackBerry ID username when you created your BlackBerry ID,
you can receive a new confirmation email message.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2. Tap Settings > BlackBerry ID.
3. Tap Confirm. An email message is sent to the email address that you use as your BlackBerry ID.
4. Open the email message and follow the instructions on the screen.
