BlackBerry smartphone address book RSET wiped all contacts not only most unwanted

I'm on a v5.0.0.681 running Curve 8520.

I recently added an account of electronic mail for my wife. Adding, authorized contacts to be synchronized in.  After deleting the e-mail account, his list of contacts remained (all1700 of them) flooding my contacts.

I read on these forums using RSET in address book Options would remove the list. He has done, but also deleted all my contacts.  There is no back upwards on a PC or on my SIM card.  I can't even add contacts manually because they refuse to register.

Any ideas on how to retrieve my contacts, or at least to allow them to be re - enter manually?

Thank you

I myself have solved now.

The problem was that making the RSETE he got rid of BB phone's address book. Actually, address book has not been installed.

I followed http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB2...

I have my contacts back too, as they have been synced with my e mail contacts account.  I still have the issue of the removal of all the contacts in my e-mail account that I don't want on my phone.

BB should be better caveats on the use of the RSET

  • BlackBerry smartphone address book Sync & office 6

    HI all -

    I'm trying to synchronize the data in the address book out of Outlook 2007 my boss for a Blackberry Pearl 8130 it sync with Desktop Sotware V 6.0.1.18. It is currently running Windows 7 Hm Prem 64 Bit.

    The BB Pearl is a phone just now (no data connection) when he wants to transfer the address book for the use of the telephone directory.

    I downloaded its address book of its Outlook to a CSV file & tried to do a sync 1 way to the BlackBerry device. He already has another BB curve which is sync would be its prospects & we also have a serivce Hosted Exchange configured to its Outlook & BB curve.

    The software I tried to go through the option synchronize data, but it gives me error messages or think I need to select the data to be transferred, under the Organizer/configure parameters.

    Is there a bug in this new DS software?

    Thank you

    Rob

    For those interested - I have solved my problem.

    I end up installing the software of BB DM 6.0 on my PC (Win Xp Pro SP3) & taking the battery out of the BB Pearl for a few minutes.

    I tried to start the synchronization & initially got the Intellisyc error # (0 x 80040057) when you try to import an Outlook PST file.

    I've deleted the Intellisync my tried & hard drive folder, but got the same error code. I then tried to import again, but from a CSV file. This has worked but noticed some data missing. I checked the field mapping & noticed some fields that the ASCII importer expected was different from the CSV file. I've renamed some of the fields in the CSV file & data transfer worked well!

    Don't know if some of the questions I had initially with the BB DM 6.0 on the laptop of my boss was that it was running Windows 7 64 Bit, or I need to make a difficult start of the BB Pearl by removing the battery...

  • BlackBerry Smartphones 'Address book call' phone function

    I installed the software at 4.5.0.110.  In the phone function when I put the cursor in the empty field where a number is to be entered and I click on the trackball, a small window at the bottom of the screen appears that says "menu".  When I click again, appears the full menu and a selection is "Call address book."  When I select this function, the list of address book and I can then select the person and the number to call.  My question is this: in the old software, when I put the cursor in the empty field where a number is to be entered and I clicked on the trackball, the message "Address book call" instantly appeared.  I have not had to go through the extra click to see the full menu, then click again to access the address book.  Is there a setting in this new software to go directly to the "address book call" when the curson is in the field "Enter number" and I click? Thanks for anyone's help.

    Go to Options > keyboard/screen.

    Scroll to Menu/Menu Style option and set it to FULL menu.

    I want that my address book to view all entries by first or last name and have filled all the information accordingly. However, I have a mixture of the first name and the name of the list alphabetically when I scroll down tom insert name in an e-mail message. My list of contracts is organized by all the names first. How can I sync the address book to match the list of contacts?

    Hi tgblueblade,

    1. what email program are you using?

    2 are. what device or software you using Sync?

    If you use Windows contacts, then this isn't the ability to synchronize the list of Windows contacts to be identical to the list of e-mail contacts.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones to BB Bold 9780 Outlook Contacts synchronization problem

    A few weeks ago, when I started to sync my Outlook Contacts to my BB, a message window pops up letting me know that RIM is no more using the same method to do.  Since then, I was unable to carry out a synchronization.

    When I start a synchronization, first of all, he said "Have information of the State of the BB address book" and reads all of the records quickly, then he said "Have information state of Outlook Contacts" and reads all of the records quickly. After that, he said 'get more information state of Outlook Contacts", but underneath, what is said"Card reading 1", then"read 2 records", etc as there are records.  She does very slowly, as it takes 20 minutes to read 50 records and I have 1900 records.

    I called T-Mobile, they couldn't help me.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the desktop software.  I have updated the software of BB. None of these permits.

    Last night, I left my BB plugged to the computer at night to see if she would complement all.  In the morning, the BB Desktop Software had closed and the contacts were not properly synchronized.

    Help!  I need contacts on my phone.

    Hi - I'm the one who reported the problem at first.  I found the CD Moose comes with the phone and installed the old version 6.0 of the BB Desktop software.  My Outlook Contacts now synchronize very well, as they did before.  This seems to have solved the problem.  Maybe the other person with the same problem can do the same thing.  The other thread has a link to older versions of the software, but I hesitated to use because he said it was for Verizon and I have T-Mobile, but if I could not find my old CD, I would have given a trial.  I mention this just in case you do not have the CD.  Many thanks to those who helped and good luck to others with this issue.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones you need to transfer all my contacts in my address book Outlook 2007 on my BB?

    I'm sure that this information is displayed no doubt somewhere in these forums, but Ive tried different 5-6 research and can't find what I need to know, so thought I would try a post.

    I want only to transfer some of the contacts in my address book Outlook 2007 on my BB and keep these contacts through each synchronization (don't want to sync and have all appear).  Can someone tell me how to proceed?

    Assistance or management, you can give me is appreciated! Thank you!

    In Outlook, create a new folder in your contacts, name it anything you want and MOVE in this folder of contacts from Outlook, you do not want to synchronize to the BlackBerry.

  • Smartphones blackBerry my address book is corrupted

    Some on my entries in the address book appear to be missing as one seems to be a copy of dozens of times.

    IntelliSync ignores the address book.  No error, just never even try to sync

    I tried to change my options IntelliSync go only from Outlook for BB, but still no synchronization.

    If I look in the DM backup and advanced restoreand compare it to a good backup, I took two days ago, the two address book - all the and address book Options are greyed out out (not selectable) in the file window and not appear at all in the device window.  However, a warning is displayed downstairs saying, "databases that are not available in the list have been configured for synchronization with wireless or wireless backup and are read-only.  You can restore or do disappear.

    At this point, all I want to do is delete the address book DB and reloaded from Outlook.

    Help!

    Just got this figured out today. Yes! My wifes phone did the same thing. Go to the Desktop Manager application loader, software update. Click on the most recent version (5.0.0.405 for me), press Next. He will probably say no update needed. Device software options, click on settings, then check erase all applications already installed. Who will check the two boxes below. Hit OK and that recharges all applications that there was probably some corrupted info here somewhere.

    The next thing to do is to stop sync e-mail wirelessly, for now. Go to contact new contact list and click key of BB. Go to options, scroll through contact lists, type track ball or track pad, then assigned to wireless sync. In this way, when you make your backup, it will save your contacts to a file with your other backup information.

    I hope this helps. It worked for me.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones please help me find my contact list!

    Hello world

    I have a blackberry curve 8900 which I love, but which I think may have violated my mind this time!

    When I go into my contacts to search for a contact it just continues to "Add contact" - when I type the name of the contact in the contact 'find' option then decides to add a new place!

    It will allow me to search my contacts to SIM card, but, being not the most skilled of the people, my contacts are not all on my SIM card.

    If I go through the search icon on my desktop and search through contacts he will allow me to find them there, but I do not understand why my little contact has changed and how to reverse this trend?

    The contacts are there when I go to the SMS of someone, but if I try to send a message via MMS (IE a picture), the same problem of contacts search is performed.

    I'm not the most technologically minded people, but I really like this phone and I don't know what I did wrong!

    If you can help in any way I would be really grateful.

    Thank you xx

  • How to copy my address book Thunderbird to my Contacts of the Ipad?

    I use Thunderbird at home, but use my Ipad to send Emails when outdoors. I don't want to get into all my contacts manually, so how do I copy them to my Ipad contacts folder?

    I don't know anything about the iPad, but the question boils down to:

    (a) which can import the request or the iPad e-mail address book?
    (b) whose answers to (a) bogus Thunderbird generate?

    Thunderbird can generate files LDIF and CSV with an appropriate add-on, vCard files. How would physically load you these in the iPad, even if they were compatible? Is viable wifi or bluetooth heat transfer between the two devices?

    The iPad can sync with any system of external contacts, such as the Google Contacts?

    This article gives suggests that some Apple products can work with data in CSV, LDIF and vCard.

    I suspect that the most likely approach vCards that works is to send attachments to email in Thunderbird, and to open and accept vCards on the iPad.

    You will need this add-on:

    to generate vCards in Thunderbird.

  • BlackBerry smartphones address email and password

    My Blackberry Torch was stolen recently.  Now that I got my new camera and everything seemed to work OK.  I received emails addressed to it and who is "pushed".  I tried to download an app and had my Blackberry ID need I entered.  She would not accept my new password - so I asked to reset - but the email they were supposed to be sent to my blackberry address did not!  Does anyone have ideas, what can I do now?

    Oh okay Ouch, the using the blackberry.net email account is not good. These emails cannot be found or read any where, but on the BlackBerry smartphone.

    Personally, I never recommend using blackberry.net for this main reason e-mail accounts.

    My best suggestion is to get a gmail or yahoo account for free and create a whole new BlackberryID.

    Then, call your mobile operator Orange and ask them to bring this problem to RIM level two level tech support and get your old account merged or moved to the new BlackBerryID.

    Yes, it's complicated. But it's the only way I see possible... all this because of the password reset. Yuck, indeed.
