BlackBerry smartphones can not create the contact!

When I'm in my contacts, I don't have an option in the BB menu to create a new contact? I know others who do not have this option.  I add contacts from time to time and need this option.  How can I fix?

Thank you!!

Thank you ricshome.  That's exactly what I did and there is no option for the new contact.  I scrolled the options several times.  I am an advanced user account I am a technician in the field COMPUTER (don't not bragging just stating that I am not a beginner).  I have rebboted the device and still no change.  Any other suggestions out there?

  • BB 9700 blackBerry smartphones can not see the contact name as sms/mms

    Hi, just recently got the bold 9700 and i LUV IT!  Only I have a problem.

    I import all my contacts from outlook express and they all come out somehow on my blackberry contacts list.   Problem is that if I get a TEXT from someone, it shows the name of number and no contact even if I already have the contact on my list.  It's just a concern to watch who texts me all the time.  For example, number of friend is stored on my BB as + 1 (123) 456-7891. He sent me a sms/text and it shows it's on + 11234567891.  It's the same number, but my BB cannot identify it as a number of a known contact.  Sometimes, he would show (123) 456-7891. Someone please help me! as I have 100 + contacts and I don't want to set up each each contact on my list depending on how I get their number on my sms.

    You are welcome.

    Good luck.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not create email account

    Hi, I'm new here (and Blackberry) and need help.

    I got a used Blackberry 8330 curve and can not create a new e-mail account.  This is the message I get:

    'An account already exists for this Blackberry device.  Please login or contact your wireless service provider. »

    If I scroll down and press ok, it asks the PIN/EIN number, which I have input.  Received the same message.

    How can I clear it so I can add the email?  The main purpose to get the BB was to use it to access my work email...

    Thanks in advance for any help on this.

    Thank you, thank you!  I used your links, called Verizon and cleaned it up!  I have now all accounts added (including my work) that I wanted, and we have updated my software as well.  Everything works as it should. (I no longer do not get the 'other guys' messages as well!).

    You are a star!

    Thanks for helping a newbie!

    Hello docvish,

    Welcome to the community,

    As the PC or laptop requires the restart of our smartphone require also restarts to remove slow, whenever you feel any unusual just give a battery pull reboot I have; e while the unit is on the battery wait a min. then reinsert it wait until it restarts. You can also give a soft reboot by pressing alt + Shift R (aA ^) + DELETE.

    Also avoid any applications running in the background, press on and hold Menu button for a few seconds, it will appear a screen showing running applications or that are still open., remember always to get out of the applications not only to return the key. Try if solves your problem, or alternatively you can visit any Center of Blackberry service to the issue.

    Good luck

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not see the name of contact shown with incoming call

    Dialing the number is displayed, but not the name of the contact?

    Cannot find any configuration option to fix...

    There are many possibilities...

    1. You have more than one pack of BB OS installed on the PC, which is confusing for the desktop software.
    2. The package of BB OS does not exactly match your BB model... I don't know if '9800 M"(in the name of the file) and '9800' (what you declare you to be) are considered to be exactly the same thing or not.
    3. There is perhaps still the second PROVIDER. To remove XML file.
    4. The operating system package is somewhat damaged and unusable.
    5. The operating system package is identical to what is already running on the BB.

    The foregoing may be causal. If everything is correct, you actually should not even if you obtained in step 5. If everything is correct, once the Desktop software is running and the BB is connected, it should automatically offer you the update... you should not even able to go as far as you have to click on update. If something on this bundle of BONES is not recognized as being available for your BB.

    If point 5 is causal, you may need to override this in step 5 above,:

    Note Although written to "recharge" and the storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade or recharge any BB device model - depends on the operating system package you download and install on your PC.

    Good luck!

    I tried to restart the removing the battery for a minute and reboot, but always with the same problem.

    Also, I figured out that when synchronize my bb with Desktop Manager, the address book is not sync that it says (address book not installed) and this is why I can't drag contacts to reinstall the info because I don't have to return to the top of the address book

    Please I need help with this question

    Thank you

    While there is no limit on how many contacts you can have on your device, there is a soft limit that you can have as many times as the memory of your device can handle. Check the available memory to see if you have any remaining space. If this isn't the case, then consider cleaning out / uninstallation of some things that you don't need to increase the memory available to more contacts.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not change the way in which contacts appear on the screen...?

    Ive just got a 8900 & Id like to change how to display the contacts list - for now I just get the name of the contact came but I'd like show the number too.  It IE by going to the "Language" option, I can change that, but I don't have this option on my Blackberry..., any ideas on how I can do this. Thank you very much.

    IF you open your address book > Menu button > Options, you will find a way to display your contacts by name or company.

    There is no option to display the phone number. Some contacts may have a single number, some might have 4-5 digits. You want to see one or all to display in the address book list?

    There is no way to do it.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not type the names of the contacts from the home screen

I must now go into the address book and then type their name. I can only enter the numbers directly from the home screen. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Its still set to Yes.

    I just tried fiddling with the options of entering text (extinct since shortened ID and language selection) and it started working again. I returned these back to the values previously and it still works. I feel there is something funky with the selection of text entry and the home screen...

    can not set up my new email or ID

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Since little information, we unfortunately have to make assumptions... the content accurate and full of error messages is always more useful than a short short description.

    So here's my proposal? Is there a COMPUTER policy on your device?

    • Article ID: KB30076 How to check for an it on a BlackBerry smartphone policy

    Is there and you're on BES, then stop now and go talk to your BES admins... they control everything.

    If there is and you are not on BES, then you need to clean your unit of the it policy:

    • Article ID: KB31291 How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone to factory using BlackBerry Desktop Software Settings

    Be very attentive to provided warnings, particularly the fact that your device will be wiped clean in the process. You can find adequate instructions to backup via the link in my sig auto on this post. But, when you restore, do not full restore... restore instead, only those databases you requested (e.g., calendar, contacts, etc.) and more precisely to avoid restore and data bases that have nothing to do with politics, COMPUTING, business, or anything similar. If you restore the databases, the it policy will be conscientiously restored to your device, and you will be right back where you started.

    If there is no COMPUTER policy, contact your mobile provider for formal support.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not open the downloaded applications

    I have a blackberry 9360 and it's great, the only problem is that some applications don't download, same if I'll buy them and others will download but does not open "Phone Warrior will not work without the requested permissions" I accept all requested permissions, but it still does not... Can anyone help?

    Hello

    If you've got reliable sources (e.g., BBWorld) apps and they are therefore particularly compatible with your device and the OS level, then it is possible that you have a policy COMPUTER on Board that is blocking them. Reference:

    • Article ID: KB30076 How to check for an it on a BlackBerry smartphone policy

    If you indeed have a political TECHNOLOGY and are part of a BES and environment, then stop now and contact your BES admins for help... only they can tell you if what you're trying is against them.

    If you have a COMPUTER policy and are not part of BES, then the question arises why the it policy exists on your device. In general, it's because you got 2nd hand device and the seller does not correctly clean it... refer:

    • Article ID: KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after the purchase of a used BlackBerry smartphone

    But even without the seller, as long as they did everything in their section of the KB, you can always clean the device of the it policy. The process is to destroy everything, please first review the link in my sig auto on this post for a full and proper backup procedure to follow.

    Once you have this full backup, to proceed with this:

    • Article ID: KB31291 How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone to factory using BlackBerry Desktop Software Settings

    Thereafter, proceed to restore your applications and data, but DO NOT make a full restore... instead, only a selective restore of the databases you really need (e.g., contacts, calendar, etc.) and specifically avoid restore databases that have nothing to do with politics, COMPUTING, business , or anything similar - if restore you those, he will dutifully restore it on your device policy, and you will be right back where you started.
