RE: Lost password
Greetings, To get your lost MXit Pin, send an SMS containing the word 'PIN' to 34006. You will then receive a SMS in return containing your lost PIN. Please note: * This only works with cell numbers that are in South Africa. * Make sure the number you're sending the SMS from is the same number you have registered on MXit. * Make sure that your message options on your phone are set to sms. * The sms that you are sending to 34006 must just contain the word pin and nothing else * If you receive a blank reply from your service provider, this means the number you SMSed from is NOT registered to MXit. * This SMS costs R2.00 Regards, MXit_Team Ané Schoeman | Technical Support -Original Message- From: support-boun...@pidgin.im [mailto:support-boun...@pidgin.im] On Behalf Of David Woolley Sent: Friday, March 05, 2010 12:25 AM To: jen...@gmail.com Cc: support@pidgin.im Subject: Re: Lost password jen...@gmail.com wrote: I changed laptops and cant remember my password on tel nr 0795837761 , please assist.

Re: lost password
Pidgin does not encrypt passwords (unfortunately), rather it stores them in plain text. If you had Pidgin save your password for you, it's listed out in the open in your Pidgin configuration file. On my linux system, it is in (my home directory)/.purple/accounts.xml I'm not sure where you'll find accounts.xml on your particular operating system. Enable seeing hidden files, and look for a 'purple' directory. HTH, Gar Michelle Kukla wrote: Hello. For a few years I have been a satisfied user of Pidgin and have had no complaints.

So, if Michelle is using windows, she ought to look here: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/Using%20Pidgin#Whereismy.purpledirectory and if she's using some linux system, it will be in .purple under her home directory (as I mentioned above.) Too bad she didn't mention which operating system she's using when she runs Pidgin. Cheers, Gar Michelle Kukla wrote: Hello.

Re: lost password
Replies go to the list, not directly to individuals. What exactly does this password box say? This sounds like a password for one of your IM accounts, not Pidgin.
