BlackBerry smartphones can not remove stubborn contacts on my Blackberry

Hello - I just got a new Blackberry - converted during a Treo (Windows). I had all sorts of difficulties to get my contacts and calendar first moved on my Mac and moves in sync with the Mac issues, so now I'm using Blackberry Desktop on a PC with Outlook. My problem is that I deleted the database of addresses using the backup/restore function so that I could start with a clean address book import, and I have about 20 contacts on my pocket computer that I can't get rid of. I tried the process several times. I can highlight in the address book and select 'Delete', but your handheld will just ignore the command. I can open the contact and modify it, but when I try to save it, I get a message that says "updated to the outside address. Changes will be lost and the viewer will be closed. »

Is it possible to get rid of these addresses? I now duplicates for these addresses, because OUtlook does not recognize that they are already in my pocket.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Only other thing I can think is to wipe the device. If you want to make a backup of your device first, go to the backup and restore | Backup copy. Then, on the device, go to Options | Security options | Settings General, hit the menu button, choose wipe Handheld. This will clear all data from the device. Later, you can return to the backup and restore | Advanced to select certain databases to restore. If you just go in the restoration, and then he would probably bring back corrupted in the AddressBook entries.

    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 remove 1 remaining phone journal - Call Log NOT updated entry

    Hello. I have a Bold 9000. My phone call log is is more updated. I have 1 old handwriting on the paper that I can't remove.

    I tried to spend too many Messages, display folder, phone call logs, but it comes back with "Eception exception: java.lang.NullPointerException." I get the same message at boot to reset (drums),

    Option / status / watch 50 MB of free file is not a memory problem.

    It's very frustrating. If I can't sort out is there no way to uninstall & reinstall the software on the BB?

    Thanks, Altaf

    Hello.

    I'm sorry I failed you early especially after taking the time to provide me with a solution.

    First of all, I did what you asked and managed to clear the logs of the phone call (by selecting this line under databases) of advanced DTM. I was not sure if you meant that (historical clear calls) when you said "Click on the database on the RHS and click the Clear button" or that you wanted to say more.

    I had to make 2 passes through it. The 1st time, it says that there are 20 entries in the log (I saw that one on my phone). After the clearer, I went back to my phone and the entrance was still there but a DTM Advanced phone log said there were 17 entries now. Then, I deleted the newspaper again and this time it was the desired effect!

    I also removed the battery with the unit on. The message "Eception Java lang... "disappeared now.

    I thank very you much for helping me.

    From the moment wherever they gave me a BB "BOLD" of my company, I realized how good it was. It is simple and intuitive in use and much faster and without fault compared to many other PDA/Smartphones I've used. I liked it so much, I bought one for me!

    Best wishes

  • BlackBerry Smartphones can not remove two emails - HELP

    I have a TOUR 9630 for about a year and was able to remove e-mail messages without problem... with the exception of two who will not erase!

    I tried everything and I can't delete these two messages for some reason any... I tried to remove it from my laptop correctly, but they still appear on my 9630... can someone help me get rid of these two boring emails that just sit on my blackberry... look at me...

    Thank you

    Hmm.... are they emails otherwise quite normal?
    When you tap on Delete on one of them, what is happening... it asks you to confirm the deletion on the handheld or the server?

    Did you restart the BlackBerry to see if that removes them?

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not remove app FB of Blackberry HUB! New Z10

    I have the new Bberyy Z10.

    I don't want the FB app in my Blackberry hub, actually, I want that he removed completely from my phone. I manually deleted the application from the main application icon pages. Also, I went in 'Management Hub' and clicked off for Facebook in terms of updates. However updates still occur, on my main screen when my phone is locked even! Very annoying.

    I'm trying to get rid completely of my phones FB app, especially of the HUB. I searched for a type of 'application manager' mode where I was able to do this in older versions of the Bberry.

    Much appreciated, thanks!

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There is no app handler more... the main icon pages are rather than that, so you would place this icon until they all started to vibrate, then let go and select the trash in top/right of the FB icon, then completed the process to remove the application.

    But you don't have maybe not deleted real integration account... swipe down from the top, then select settings, then accounts... If FB is in here, delete as well.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones can not remove some message

    I have a message in my Inbox with a red square with a dial on the LHS of the message. I can't delete this post for a reason, and it does not let me download some of my new messages.

    See you soon

    MalteseFalcon

    Don't know what is an email RX?  You can open that message and scroll to the top then provide information listed in there, for example by using: XXX, folder: XXX, status: XXX.

    Did you try to reset your handset, such as remove and reinsert the battery without turning it off.

    If it's one of the corrupted message, you can summer use Desktop Manager to remove the database of the entire message.

    Hi all

    I tried to remove this icon that opens the browser, but I couldn't.

    It does not appear in the Options > Advanced Options > Applications not in the modules.

    I have the same problem with the MySpace icon.

    Presser - these two are not applications, what you see is simply shortcuts to the installer for applications. The shortcut icons are pushed to the device of your operator.

    You can remove the service books that allowed these shortcut icons, but they will likely get pushed to the device. I just hide the icons... I create a folder on the "undesirable" named home screen, move the icons in this folder, and then hide this folder completely.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not remove the icon...

    About two days ago with the number '1' in front of him a little envelope icon directly at noon under the hour and the day/date, which are stacked in the center of the upper InfoBar at the top of the screen.  This envelope will appear in italics vs the indicator total number of messages in the upper left corner under the battery charge indicator.

    I had seen it before and it was a kind of message from Blackberry, but I could see it in the Inbox, but now I'm not able to remove it

    All ideas

    If the advice of the tanzim are unsuccessful, try this:

    Open any folder for e-mail messages.  Press the BB menu button and select view folders.  This opens a list of folders in which your mystery message could be hiding.  Browse all records for the culprit.

    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?
