cannot create new email account

i had setup my yahoo account when i first got my tp. i tried setting up a new different account now and it wont take me to the new account screen. i select create new account in 3 places ans none of them did anything. dont know i installed that caused this, thought it might be arcsoft MMS. uninstalled it but same results. i deleted my yahoo account thinking there is a limit of one account but still nothing. i would settle getting that account back.

Did you mess with any of the reg settings on accident? I am sure there is an easy fix but I cannot recall of the top of my head which one disables new accounts. You might just do a hard reset.

Hard resets aren't so bad as long as you back your stuff up.

Re: cannot create new email account

So yes, i found out that Arcsoft was the issue.

I AM ABLE TO CREATE NEW EMAIL ACCOUNTS WITHOUT HARD RESET!!

So this is what I did:
1. Uninstalled arcsoft 5.0.69.44 then soft reset
2. Go to this thread and get the file Arcsoft Sprint MMS 5.0.69.44-remove reg.cab and install it. It supposedly removes any reg entries that 5.0.69.44 installed that is normally not removed during uninstall.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=59412
3. Soft reset again.
4. Installed Arcosft Sprint MMS 5.0.69.44-full.cab from this thread:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=59218

One interesting note, after step 3 above I tried creating new email account and still couldn't. Only after step 4, was i able to.

Re: cannot create new email account

I am glad it helped somebody else also. I wish we can really pinpoint the problem, but this works so I am happy. Surprised others haven't tried this, but most probably just did a hard reset. I for one only hard reset if it is the last resort.
