Account locked due to password being reset too many times

When you go to your email accounts and cannot get in due to a forgotten password you have options available to RESET the Password in front of you. Use the option that sends a code to your cell phone and reset the password accordingly. If you do not have legal authority to get a password or code; then your locked out and noting will help you get in. Start a NEW email account with a different name.

If you suspect that someone has hacked your Yahoo! account or if you attempt to log in your account too many times with an incorrect password, Yahoo! might lock you out of your account.

After several failed login attempts, the Yahoo! security feature locks your account for a predetermined amount of time to prevent unauthorized users from accessing your account.

Unauthorized users might use your account to send unsolicited emails or intrude on your private content and emails.

Although being locked out of your Yahoo! account can be frustrating, you can gain access to your account and change your password after the lock expires.

Wait 24 hours.
Return to the Yahoo! website and click the "Sign In" link at the top of the page.


Click "I Can't Access My Account."
Select "I Forgot My Password" or "My Password Doesn't Work" from the list of options.

Click the "Next" button to proceed.
Enter your Yahoo! ID in the "My Yahoo! ID is" field.


Enter the security code in the "Enter the Code Shown" field. Click the "Next" button.
Click "I Cannot Access Any of the Above" and click the "Next" button.
Type the answers to the security questions in the appropriate fields.

You set these security quests when you created your Yahoo! Account.
Click "Next."


Enter a new password in the field and verify the password by retyping it in the field.
Click the "Next" button and Yahoo! resets your password.

The new password is effective immediately, allowing you to sign in your Yahoo! account.

If you ever find yourself with a locked Yahoo account, it's likely due to multiple incorrect password attempts.

As a security measure, Yahoo's email and chat client servers automatically lock your account to prevent unauthorized access after there have been multiple invalid password entries.

The ID Lock security measure safeguards a Yahoo account from unauthorized users who try to access your account without permission.Cause

After multiple incorrect password entries to a Yahoo account, the server automatically sets a lock on it.
This happens because every time a Yahoo Account holder logs into his account, he's logged in with a cookie.

A cookie is an information packet that proves you are the valid account holder.
However, when a person tries to access an account with many failed attempts, the cookies expires, triggering the ID lock on the account.
24-Hour Wait

A Yahoo account holder must wait up to 24 hours before accessing the account again.
The lock on the account expires within 24 hours from the time the account was locked.

Unlock Using Another Server Since Yahoo! has many servers around the world, a user can log into his account by visiting a different Yahoo server address. (See Below.)

Enter the Yahoo! ID and password in their respective fields, and click on "Log in" to access your yahoo account.
Avoid Yahoo Account Locks
To prevent future Yahoo! account locks, a user should limit the number of times he tries to enter a password.

If an account holder has forgotten his password, he should use the "Forgot Passsword" feature to reset the password.

Too many attempts to unlock
Which email account ?
Unlocking your Hotmail account after it has been locked due to too many failed log in attempts can be done using Microsoft's automated password reset system.

The feature has been put in place to protect users from crackers and scammers who would then use the account to steal your personal information and that of your contacts'.

It's a good idea to regularly cycle your passwords to increase the security of your correspondence.

Navigate to account.live.com/ResetPassword.aspx.
Select "I forgot my password."


Click "Reset my password."
Enter your Hotmail email address and the letters in the displayed picture.


Click "Next." A new password will now be emailed to the alternate email account you've listed in your profile.

You can use this password to log into your now-unlocked Hotmail account.

Unfortunately,

You were most likely blocked due to a violation of the Terms of Service (TOS) that you accepted upon your account creation. You could create another G-Mail Account to bypass this or contact YouTube directly to petition your ban. If you are locked due to successive bad passwords, you can login to your G-Mail and go through the account password reset process.

Hi and welcome to FixYa!

did you receive a notification message from yahoo that your account is locked? if yes, the locking time is 24hours. The account that is locked is due to multiple log ins using a wrong password. and locks after 3 or so attempts.

Wait until the lock time limit had lapsed, then log in again using the correct password.]

You may need to try and log in and hit Forgot My Password if you cannot log in again when your account is unlocked. Do not lock yourself out again, do not attempt password more than twice if you know it won't work. Each time you try to log into your account, it may restart your time and lock it down again during the waiting period.

Do NOT touch it for at least 24 hours.

If you wish to change your password after this period;


Go to yahoo.com

click sign in;

click i cannot access my account;

click forgot password,

click next

Enter in your email address, the security code and try to reset your password. You can also use your alternate email address, or security questions for this.

Then try and sign in again.

I guess, you account isn't locked yet, but you've forgotten the login password. I am sorry if I am wrong. Well, you can still recover or reset your password. Your security question is "What town was your father born in?", hopefully you can still remember the answer. Open Yahoo!Mail, click "I can't access my account" (at the bottom of the login box). Now, on the password recovery page, select "My Password Doesn't Work" and click "Next", enter your Yahoo ID and the security code in the respective boxes, click "Next", again on the next page, select "I can't access any of the above" but if you still remember the alternate email, enter it. If I am not wrong, your alternate email is a hotmail.com email address... click "Next" and you'll be given options to reset your password. If you do this very carefully, you'll definitely get your account back. I hope you haven't tried multiple times to login which would automatically rejects login attempts within specific period.

Let me know if you need further help.
Good Luck.
Thanks for using FixYa.

Sorry, this account is temporarily locked (9002) This account has been temporarily locked because of security concerns
The lock on your account will expire in approximately 24 hours—the lockout period will not reset each time you attempt to sign in while the account is still locked. You can try to recover your password again after the lock has expired.


this is the msg that displayed while trying to reset your password

so try resetting your password tommorow.thanks

Number one reason Yahoo will block a user is if the password is typed wrong too many times. That can happen when the capital lock on the keyboard. If it locked due to errors in password, it will reset in a certain amount of time. Usually about 3 days.

Other kinds of things can also cause this. "Suspicious" activity that is picked up through automation is not fully explained by Yahoo. Abusive language can get users suspended, but if this was the case, you would be informed.

Someone else trying to get into your account is a big one.Large amounts of mail suspected to be spam is another. That is why you should never give others your password.

If you forgot your password, you can reset it if you can answer securtiy setting questions. When you go to login, click I forgot my password. Don't keep putting the wrong one in.

Yahoo also asks if you have another email to send you notices, so if you did give them another, look there for information.

If you did not get an error or message of some sort while you were trying to enter your account, and the page simply didn't work, the reason may not be an account lock out. thanks for your question, please leave comments if you cannot reset your account.
