BlackBerry smartphone Contact list need help

Hi all. Just got my first BB and love it. I have the 9100 pearl and have a question.

I took my SIM card from my old phone (sony w910i) and installed in my BB. In configuration mode he asked me to transfer the contacts that I made, but it gave me one number per contact as home number. I recorded them all in my outlook contacts with all the information, including emails. Is it possible to transfer all this and get my contact list done correctly or I have to manually go in and change all of them?

Also is there a way I can use the computer to enter my information into the BB instead of the small keyboard?

Thank you

Peter

Welcome to the forums, Peter!

You want to download and install the Office BlackBerry (DM) Manager from here.

You can then configure DM to synchronize your Outlook contacts on your device.  This link will help guide you through the configuration process.

  • BlackBerry smartphones, that I need help to transfer data from a 9870 "BOLD" for a Blackberry Curve 9300 Blackberry

    Hi, I have used a Bold 9870 for a few months now. I've been saving my camera on my computer periodically. Unfortunately, it has been exposed to water the weekend and unresponsive. I transferred my acct (by Sasktel) to the Blackberry curve of my son he no longer uses. (I'm drying my "BOLD" in a bag of rice and I hope that it will work again in the coming days?!).

    My question is did anyone know how I can get all my information backups "BOLD" (contacts, emails, texts, bbm surveys) and get only their transferred on the curve that I currently use. I feel completely lost without it!

    Thank you for your time.

The version of the OS in the mine is 7.1.0.746 (2108), I was invited by the service 7.1 bundle downgrade and backup center 1646, which I am not ready to do what it takes forever and I have to reinstall all the software back and set up e-mail. What would you suggest?

Why my phone should behave mumb silent n when I get a phone call or have to do one and the is to run return is of restarting it.

    This happens usually when application runs in the background, or because of any unknown third-party application installed within our system, or due to lack of memory. Reboot to shoot some time A battery is enough to solve this problem. If press and hold the Menu for a few seconds, it will appear a screen that will display all the programs running in the background, usually five will always be there (host, BBM, Message, phone, browser) you can always check if any other applications. are running in the background, if they then close them properly.

    We should always try to close Applications correctly - avoid using key end to close the applications because it just minimizes the application and let it run in the background. Instead, press the Menu key, select close or Exit to exit the application. Do not leave your browser open on a page of Web active when not in use. If programs are running in the background, that this will lead to problems that you are experiencing now. Please take a look at this Article, I don't know that it will help you overcome your problems:

    First find your operator and the system operating file that you want to use.

    Make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close the office at the end Manager.

    1. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.

    3. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • BlackBerry Smartphone Contacts list disappeard! Can't get it back!

    Hello!

    I have a BB Bold 9700 and during the holidays, I went to my parents, where there was no cell phone coverage... But the strange thing is that my Contacts disappeared as soon as I lost connectivity... I thought that they would reappear when I had a blanket once again, but no!

    Then I did a restore of my backup in BB Desktop Manager (latest version) and it still does not... I don't know what to do anymore... Any help?

    P.S.: The rest is still there, calendar, recorded messages, photos, etc...)

    In fact, I could go to my service provider and the solution is to disable "wireless synchronization" in the Options of Contacts list.

    Thanks for the help!

    Hi all.

    This morning I received a message to update my BB Messenger.

    After the update and installation, there were a few mistakes (not forget to take screenshots), but since then, my contact list has disappeared.

    Lateron when I logged in again, he asked me to look for my ' old "contacts. I waited a few minutes and nothing happened so I decided to restart my BB. After that, my contact list was empty and now I don't have my friends braces saved somewhere.

    Someone has an idea how to do to retrieve the list of old?

    No backup copy? Not at all?

    You can make a very very easy to in BlackBerry Messenger > Options > Backup. You have not done this?

    Or the Desktop Manager?

    If you do not - simply start adding your friends again.

    Look at the Options > Applications > BlackBerry Messenger, what version of BBM do you have?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!

    I'm afraid you'll need to reload the OS device on the phone.

    You last backup, you can restore it later.

    Hi junola09,

    The error that you are experiencing with your address book indicates a problem with the software and it is advisable that reinstalling the software to correct this situation.

    Back up your data by using the Desktop software then follow KB11320 to reinstall the operating system (or KB19915 if you use a Mac).

    Before restoring any data when reloading the software is complete, you can access your address book to make sure that the error no longer appears and see if you are able to access BBM and App World.

    Please note that if you use BBM 7, you must use the same ID BlackBerry to restore your contacts. Ensure that you are able to access your BBID to www.blackberry.com/blackberryid

  • BlackBerry smartphone contact list or address book on Bold 9700

    I gave my Bold 9700 to my daughter. How can I remove my contacts instead of delete one by one?

    You can connect to Desktop Manager and just turn off address book database. What I would recommend instead to do a security Wipe. Go to Options > Security Options > Security Wipe. He will wipe away all of the device of all your settings and data and you can start over. It would be a good idea to get its own BBID to download apps & games, etc. Each BB user should have their own BBID. New versions of BBM use BBID is not a good idea to share BBID.
