Hi,

While entering the password, you should press the required key multiple times to switch between its different characters, as used to type an SMS with legacy mobile devices..

 

e.g. each press on the 2 key will switch between a, b, c and then 2.

WOW!!! Almost immediately replied on a Sunday. Many thanks. As expected it was a mental block in my head. No exuse even though had not used the SMS system in a while. May all problems be this simple even though embarrassing.

Thanks much
