• BlackBerry Smartphones move all Contacts from the SIM?

  I'm changing to a 9700 for a 9790. I have a ton of contacts in the internal memory of the old phone and need to move all the way to the SIM card so I can pass the info on the new phone. Is there a way to copy all the contacts at once on the SIM card? Otherwise, I'll spend a week moving one by one.

  Hi jgazolm

  Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums

  Not on our smartphone BlackBerry you can not copy all Contacts from a SIM card at the same time, if you want to copy you make one because the BlackBerry address book is much more robust it will be a different arrangement with a resource person and several areas of information (phone cell phone, work phone, home phone, e-mail address, etc.) while the SIM card SIM card allows only one entry per phone number.

  You go from 9700 to 9790 option switch device Wizard will use BlackBerry Desktop Software it will transfer all your data from your old phone to the new.

• BlackBerry smartphones copy a Contact at the company

  The duplication of a Contact at the company to another person from the same company should be possible... I think that - which does not help the BB tour (only minor changes to an existing company Contact individual would be required to create a Contact for a different person from the same company, is to say, the new individual name, post a few changes phone # and a couple of e-mail address field changes... everything else is identical to the Contact).

  I searched here the text of the object (obtained 0 results), then pulled the 'society' (this time I got 30 results), however, nothing jumped on me like an appropriate response.

  Can do what I'm trying to do?

  Or, should all be entered again (or caillet & would be) in (to) a new form of Contact?

  Thank you, FFF

  Hello

  There is no function, on the BB, to copy a contact set item to a new article and then make changes thereto. But, if you synchronize for a computer desk or PIM (-), it is a simple matter indeed!

  Good luck!

• BlackBerry Smartphones DELEATING ALL CONTACTS ON THE PHONE LIST

  Is it possible to remove the entire list of contacts in my address on my bb8110 box?

  Use BlackBerry Desktop Manager. Open backup and restore and select the advanced option. Select the address book database, then select Delete.  There is no recovery if you delete the wrong database. You can create a first backup just to be sure.

• BlackBerry smartphones lost my contacts on the phone and cannot get back them.

  My phone has load the other night during a power failure and the morning my contacts and contacts BB disappeared.  These contacts are not lost, because it's my gmail contacts list - but I can't get back them on my phone.  I clicked all the buttons on the sync, but no luck.  I can't manually add a contact and not seeing him.  In the options of the contacts, it says I have 288 contacts associated with my gmail account, and when I manually add one, it goes up by another number.  But - I can't see them anywhere.

  Also, I deleted the email account and set up again ensuring the sync box, took out the battery and SIM card and put back and still nothing.  Advice anyone?

  You see if gmail is your default service for a list of contacts?

  http://BTSC.webapps.BlackBerry.com/BTSC/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB11471

  Check the sections under

  For BlackBerry Device Software 4.2 to 5.0 or BlackBerry Device Software 6.0

  If this is the case, then delete the account gmail from your device and set up in this way:

  Since the device, go to mobile.blackberry.com
  Scroll to connect and click Send.
  Click on join now to gmail.  See if the sync works now.

• BlackBerry Smartphones synchronization events created on the device

  Hello!

  I have a Blackberry Curve 8900 and use Entourage 2008 on my Mac for notes, calendar, and contacts of sycning.  Everything seems to sync both ways very well - outside of calendar events created on the device.  They synchronize with Entourage.  In addition, the changes I make to an event on the blackberry is not updated in Entourage.

  Can anyone help?

  I recently bought a Blackberry Storm 2, and I use Entourage 2008 and installed the Blackberry Desktop Manager. I had a few problems just getting up and running together. But now that's happening, everything seems to work fine schedule and even create events on the device. When I sync appear in Entourage, although they do not have a category.

  Have you checked iCal to see if they are be synchronized with the Entourage calendar in iCal? This may seem Basic, but have you checked the calendar section of the Blackberry Desktop Manager to ensure that the menu "add events created on the BlackBerry smartphone to" is set to the Entourage? I don't seem to have any other option, but I thought to ask anyway. Have you checked the advanced settings in the Blackberry Desktop Manager to synchronize all events?

  I create a calendar on the device event and had the address send using one different address other then the first email address for the device and for some reason any event do not synchronize. When I create a new event, however, the address to send it to the help is on the default.

  The only problem I seem to have is if I change the status of an event on the device (from busy free for example), he gets twice in the Entourage, but even in the event new status is still set to busy.

  I hope this can help you.

  Hello

  From your post, I'm not at all sure that you actually tried that did not work. Therefore, see:

  • Article ID: KB10167 How to clear data from the BlackBerry Smartphone user

  This is the process to clear any user databases out of the unit. If this does not work, please be explicit about exactly what measures you try and exactly how they work.

  Good luck and let us know!

• BlackBerry smartphones enter the username associated with this smartphone

  When I login with my ID blackberry an apper message telling to enter the user name associated with this smartphone

  Please help me

  In fact, it is not likely to help... to refer:

  • KB28429 "Please enter the username associated with this smartphone" appears by connecting to BlackBerry App World with a BlackBerry ID using a smartphone BlackBerry 7

  To paraphrase, what this means is that there is already a BB ID associated with this BB, and there is only one way to change the association ID BB to BB:

  • KB26694 How to change the BlackBerry ID on a BlackBerry smartphone or BlackBerry PlayBook Tablet

  Whereas a WIPE seems drastic, it is nevertheless the only way to change the ID of BB BB is associated.

• BlackBerry Smartphones ONLY transfer Contacts between Blackberry's without all the data and settings again BB

  Anyone know if there is a way ONLY to transfer all my contacts from one Blackberry to another Blackberry without transferring all the data and settings to the other Blackberry with the device switch Wizard?

  Hi and welcome to the forums!

  If you have a full backup of the old Blackberry, use this .ipd file to restore only the contacts on the new device.

  If your contacts are up to date in Outlook do a one-way Outlook for contacts device synchronization.

  Thank you

• BlackBerry smartphones, enter the Postal Code in the address book

  Bold 9700 - O.S. 5.0.0.344 (Platform 5.1.0.96)

  When you enter a new contact the software does not allow me to enter a zip code of alpha-numeric Canadian style - in this area, that the keyboard is configured to use only the numeric keypad.  Even if I show the canada of the country of the contact field does not change.

  I can, however, enter contacts in the Contact Manager in Outlook can synchronize address book - and postal code appears correctly.

  A glitch but frustrating...

  The indices of anyone?

  Do you have you press and hold while typing the Alpha part?, cause it worked on my 9700...

  EDITED...

  UH I mean left ALT does not affect the Shift key...

  

• BlackBerry smartphones can not CONNECT to THE SERVER

  Hello need help. My Blackberry Curve 8520 (OS 5.0.0.1036) does not connect to the server. It shows my network (Vodafone) and gets a strong signal; makes and receives calls; connect wifi; but it is also completely static. After the first Setup email screen I get: your device has a connection to the server problm.  (I think it means the Blackberry server?)  So I can not connect any email.  Very well in my other near-identical Curve 8520 Sim Card work.  How can I do please?  Y at - it a reset or software update is complete I can undertake? Thank you, Michael

  I can help you with the it policy... lack of procedure for access to the BES server, this (and only this) cleanse a BB to an it policy:

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

  If you do a backup/restore, don't do this basically... rather, backup/restore only the databases specific you need (for example, calendar, contacts, messages, etc.) and more precisely to avoid data bases having something to with COMPUTER policy, business, etc.. If you restore those, the it policy will be conscientiously restored to the device, and you will be right where you are now.

  As for a BES Server trying to reach out... There is nothing that I can offer you. Your best bet is to talk to your provider and make sure you have no BES-level service enabled on your account of them. Who should (note 'should'... is there no guarantees) prevent a BES server to reach out and the reactivation of your device.

  Good luck!

  Hi dinu7272

  Welcome to the community

  You can try a battery pull reboot, but I suggest you contact your Airtel carrier and get a new SIM card. The problem may be in the SIM card.

• BlackBerry Smartphones 2 phones registered to the same email addy for causing bbid to bbm problems

  I had a bb curve 8520 which I forwarded to my daughter that I had a curve 9320. When I implemented the new phone, I used the same email that I got on the 8520. A few days that I have improved the bbm and so does my daughter. Some how his contacts then appeared on my phone n bbm does not work on the 8520. the icon is ther it said installed but does not work. I called virgin who said that they were sorted and bbm should be resumed after 24 hours but is not. How can I fix?

  Hello ladychelle

  I guess you have already BIS on both of your devices, so first of all restart your device by removing the battery while your device is turned on, wait a minute then reinsert back .after restarting check if it allows,

  If the problem persists then register your handheld computer on your corporate network, for the help, see this KB:

  KB00510 : How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network

   

  (receive a recording message in your message)  After receiving another battery pull reboot, then try again.

• Email to blackBerry Smartphones has stopped working! The problem is NOT solved!

  My BB 9780 was working fine a few weeks ago and then stopped my emails.

  I have not added any application or change anything

  I tried this service book record thing, out of battery, removal of e-mails and trying to set them up again (which doesn't work now) and nothing

  So no idea?

  I'm tired of these bugs... I would really like to have a phone that can receive emails, otherwise it will become a big paperweight

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  I know you said you tried some things, but I don't know if you've done these steps exactly. Therefore, 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 to your BB to come...) Please wait for this before moving on to the next step):

  (1) registry HRT

  • KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network
  • Please wait a 'registration' message reach your Messages application

  (2) remove and return Service directories

  • KB05000 Remove the maintenance book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account in the BlackBerry smartphone
  • If you do not have access CMIME, continue deleting
  • 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 to take batt

  • 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 not, then you should try remove and re-add your BIS configuration for these accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile provider for formal support.

  Good luck!
