BlackBerry Smartphones cannot add or edit contacts on BB 8520
Hi, I am a beginner on this forum so apologies if this topic has been discussed before.
I gave my "old" Blackberry 8520 to my husband that I had updated.
He put the sim card from his phone Samsung with the BB.
Now, he cannot 'Add contact' or modify one of his contacts.
I had wiped the phone and he returned to factory settings before I gave it to him.
It doesn't have all of the messengers on it except BBM.
I'd appreciate your feedback / advice on that.
Thank you very much in anticipation.
Hello!
Try the following:
Just delete all applications (Yahoo, MSN or Live) email you may have recently updated / delete applications that were recently installed before the error started actually took place.
After that, disconnect the battery while the phone is always "on" and reboot the phone.
In fact I had deleted a whole bunch of applications to facilitate my upgrade of the OS that I had not enough memory on my device.
This not only helped solve my problem mentioned above, but also makes my phone restarts in less than 3 minutes (restarting earlier was done in no less than 15 minutes!).
My conclusion from the above incidents is to keep your apps in the bare minimum so that your phone performs the best.
I hope that solves your problem!

All my files are similar to the same folder Contacts photo and cannot add or Edit Contacts.
Original title: the folder view
All my folders look like photo folder... same Contacts, Ouch! I can't add or Edit Contacts. Folder views change randomly. I have set up in the Options, sometimes to keep the changes, often not. I never know how a folder will display when I open it.
Suggestions;
1 make sure that your machine is clean. Run a full scan.
2. If it's clean, do a regeneration of the icon cache.

Security BB9900 husbands suffered for me to use, but I'm unable to set up the e-mail.
The only option is to set up the email through the activation of the company.
I have a data plan from my provider Blckberry
I tried to register it on my carriers BIS activation Web site but got the message that it cannot be done through my camera
Configuration of e-mail icon only gives the ability to configure one enable a business account
Have tried blackberry.com/integrate but I get the message "unknown error, please try again" after selecting "launch email configuration".
Any ideas?
Hello and welcome to the community!
With a strong carrier network (for example, not only WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2, each should result in a message from your BB... Please wait just before moving on to the next step):
1) register HRT
- KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network
- Please wait a 'registration' message reach your Messages application
2) books of forwarding Service
- KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service
- Please wait "the Activation' Messages, one per already configured e-mail account, arrive in your Messages. If you have not already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) restart
- With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes.
- See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.
I hope that will move things again for you! If this isn't the case, then you should contact your mobile provider for formal support.
Good luck!

BlackBerry smartphones cannot add a language to my device
Hello
I am trying to add the French language on my camera and to remove Russian and Arabic which are implemented in it.
In the desktop software, I can't find any specification to do this. When I press 'Applications' - there is no alternative than matks the possibility to add or remove languages.
Can you help me?
Hello and welcome to the community!
Please start here:
- KB05305 Location of support for BlackBerry smartphones
- KB13067 How to get language for BlackBerry smartphones packs
In general, it is the package BB OS exact that you install (via your PC) to your BB, and further, then by selecting the languages that you want to appear on the BB. Is what I recommend, on a PC (you can't do this on MAC):
1) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,
(2) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
(3) download and install to your PC, the BB OS package you want:
(4) If this OS package comes from one carrier other carrier for which your BB was built, then remove, on your PC, all copies of the SELLER. XML (there will be at least one, maybe 2)
(5) run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC. If, during the process, your BB votre BB a '507' error, simply unplug the power cord of the BB USB and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.
Do not forget to save.
If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

Good luck and let us know!

BlackBerry Smartphones cannot add a photo to my own account in the Android contact manager
Hello
I use the Priv and created an Android account. Now I would like to add an image to my own account, but I get an error only when I edit my own profile with Contact Manager.
In English as: "Please install a photo app, to complete this operation".
(I like to upload a photo to understand more easily, but in this forum is no choice?)
Hi, I had the same problem. You probably disabled the Photos app, right? Go back and turn it on. You don't have to use the application, but you need to change pictures in your contacts.
Go there; Parameters
Apps, swipe to the left on the page of people with reduced mobility.

BlackBerry smartphones, I've updated, backup contact on my 8520 and it hung my phone
I've updated backup contact on my curve 8520 2 months since my phone has hanged. All buttons have seized work. The only thing being displayed on the phone is the app permissions page and I've tried several times to remove the application on my blackberry desktop software but it will just erase. Help, please.
Thank you
When you get a chance, do a battery pull. When the red light goes on the front of the phone, hold down the back button all the time while the phone is in boot. When initialization is complete, the phone goes into safe mode.

Cannot delete or edit contacts Windows 8 persons App
I have no possibility to delete or edit my contacts in hotmail windows 8 (maybe it is called direct mail). All my contacts are home grown, which means I have not imported social media in my people or my e-mail account application. All contacts were from my old hotmail account I used with a XP machine. If I slide down in the people application nothing happens. If I right click on a contact nothing happens. In short, when it comes to the edition of contacts, I'm dead in the water. I fear, if I reload Windows 8, the same thing happens again, and I don't see any information on the web that is specifically about my problem. All this reminds me the trial of Alice in Alice in the Wonderland. The Red Queen and her Court are so damn they make life * on all the world, because nothing is apparent, it's all hocus pocus, and nobody really knows what the * happens. Thanks for any help. The Cheshire Cat
I needed this as well. Had a troll autour and found this... it's surprisingly easy when try you it! Good luck.

BlackBerry Smartphones can not add or Edit Contacts from gmail account added by google apps
Time ago I ve used to have only 1 mail account on my blackberry, a Gmail ([email protected]) and google sync (http://m.google.com/sync) allowing to synchronize contacts between the smartphone and the account webmail. It worked like a charm for a long time. At that time, I could create and edit contacts and changes got synchronized in both sites.
A month ago I decided to create an e-mail address with my own internet domain name ([email protected]) through Google Apps, and decided to add this e-mail address to the smartphone to check both accounts. The first surprise came when I noticed that add that email address (using the procedure to add any email address) has caused the BB to activate, as mode of BES, against the gmail server.
Suddenly, I discovered that I can't create or edit contacts in BB, but I can't get into the google apps email webmail interface. The contact created using the web interface is synchronized to the BB.
The problem is that I can't create or edit contacts in the smartphone!
Anyone know something similar to this?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated
Ariel
