  • BlackBerry smartphones no synchronization between the curve 8520 & outlook 2010

    Hello community!

    I'm a newbie on this forum; I'm french, so my English is perhaps confused...

    Here's my problem detailed below:

    Info on the device

    carrier: Orange France - but I don't have internet on my laptop (I use it on the phone...)

    Information model: curve 8520; OS version: v4.6.1.314 (no provision)

    Apps and free space

    File: 142691188 bytes

    Installed apps and their version if possible.   (Go to settings, then Options, then applications): no

    The BT model/version device (you have to look at the BT device): what is it?

    BB Desktop Software: v7.1.0.41

    My question

    I checked some-related posts on this, but it's a little different.

    For my settings, I choose to sync from my PC to the Terminal, the only contacts & calendar with outlook profile.

    When you synchronize, it seems to fill up in the reading of the stage of the Microsoft Outlook calendar, and desktop software (v4.6) then goes very slow to play a recording and crashes after the reading of 222 results; then, it opens a window with 'Rim.Desktop.exe application error - the application generated an unhandled exception' (in french). I checked with the forums without finding a good solution.

    I followed the advice to cleanly uninstall Desktop Software with my previous settings, download the last (but identical to the one I had) version, re-installed, re-set my settings, and it hangs again.

    Any suggestions would be VERY APPRECIATED!

    Sincerely yours

    Hello

    I am pleased to tell you that my pb seems resolved!

    What have I done?

    One of my colleagues told me that I could have too many folders in my calendar.

    So:

    -J' copied my outlook 2010 calendar - to have a backup, just in case...

    -J' erased all records of 1 August 2013: to do this, I searched for all meetings, sorted by end date and choose the one I want to remove (I noticed that I had a record displays a huge amount of time, but has not taken the time to study)

    - and I started the synchronization; I have no more error message, I noticed that I was still about 1000 records schedule, but it synced without any pb

    -J' checked on my device and recordings are here!

    so, I don't know if it's a problem with the number of records, or with registration multiplied by XXX...

    As it seems to work now, I won't try your solution yet ("if it ain't broke... ») !

    Thank you very much for your help! I'll keep this thread in my archives!

    best regards to you all

  • BlackBerry Smartphone factory reset

    I'm trying to factory reset my BB curve so I can give it to my niece and I can't find how anywhere on it, Please HELP!

    I don't know why you would need register your device and do all these steps you provided previously.

    If your having trouble finding the option just apply a password and enter 10 times incorrectly. That he will wipe away.

    If your device was a BES, I would suggest a factory reset to remove all political. Just open with desktop 6.1 - 7.1 software. Go to help > resources > support tools > factory reset.

  • BlackBerry smartphone password reset after the end of support

    I have no more phone support.

    My old password does not work.

    I can't get my ID blackberry for work.

    I want to just this device to open.

    This means that you have your employers device, they have you removed from their network and forced a new password to you. You can call to ask what is the password.

    BUT, probably, their intention to reset the password is for you to do a wipe of the device security so that none of the persistent employer email, data, etc., remain on this device.

    After clearing security, you end up with essentially a new, fresh, device with no previous, ready to install as a personal device data.

  • Volume headset from blackBerry Smartphones and clarity on the curve

    Hi all

    I've been a user of Razr for quite a while and am very close to having bought a BlackBerry Curve of Alltel. Before I do, I really have your contribution to this:

    Because I spend a LOT of time making phone calls and work in a noisy environment, the earphone volume and clarity are VERY important to me. I'm not sure if the curve can give me the benefits of a great smartphone AND a great phone in terms of call quality.

    Can you give me your opinion on the earphone volume and clarity compared to the Razr (I currently use V9) and also if you think that because the tip is located a little further from your mouth against a flip style phone that it might cause problems in a noisey environment. Ive had before cell phones, which were weak in terms of call quality and its REALLY frustrating.

    Thanks again for you input. This will help me make the right decision!

    my best,

    Rick

    of all the greatness that is my BB, the listener and the quality leaves much to be desired.  If the volume is too high, cracking bad.  I use it mainly in the car and have bluetooth through the stereo, so in the car, it is not a problem for me.

    I bought this new Blackberry Curve 9320, but I'm not sure how to set up my Gmail account in it.

    When I click on email accounts in the Setup program, it forces me to activate a business account which I have apparently not. When I click on email Account Management options Messages, a box appears and says "cannot open the e-mail setup application. Contact your wireless service provider. »

    You need the BlackBerry data service on your line.  You will need to associate your BlackBerry with your data service account.  And the service books must be pushed and received by the device.  Sounds complicated but it isn't.   Talk to your service provider.  Make sure you have a regular signal good mobile network if you receive service books.   Then use the configuration of e-mail again and you will see the option to add the Internet e-mail.

    Hello everyone, I had a question about the erasure of BlackBerry security.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Google sync on the blink?

    Hello

    I just deleted google sync app to my BB and took the advice of RIM here to allow syncing of my BB calendar with my google calendar - http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/viewdocument.do?noCount=true&externalId=KB24204&sliceId=2&cm...

    However, despite advice it is certainly not true that "contributions sent the BlackBerry smartphone are synchronized with the calendar based on the web in a few seconds." I saw an entry on gmail after 10 minutes and I'm still waiting for the others.

    Is there a known issue with this? I have no problem with the network at all.

    Thank you

    If please try reebooting your phone and connect to your google calender after 5 minutes.
