• BlackBerry Smartphones get Contacts from my old BB

  Hi, I need help to restore my contacts from my old phone. Unfortunately, I can't do cause of switch device, which he lost.

  Well, that's fine. Maybe it's the best bet. If you add the missing contacts on Gmail (for computer) they will be synchronized on your phone. Try it and tell us. I have the same setup my contacts are never lost.

• BlackBerry® Smartphones getting fake email

  Hello:

  I seem to be getting the wrong email. It seems an ENCORE in Bournemouth in England is send someone elses email to my PIN in the Canada. I sent emails to person to get his BIS to stop, but she did not. I don't think she even knows or cares. What to do. It makes me crazy with 50 emails a day.

  To clarify, e-mails are sent to any PIN code. Rather, BIS pulls e-mails from an e-mail server and pushes them to the Messages of BB app under this integrated email account via BIS BB (for example, the e-mail on the device Setup Wizard). So, if you have only your GMail integrated with this BB, it must have some sort of redirection rule of sending emails to your GMail (which would be strange, indeed, I think)... but not to your BB PIN, for real emails don't get shipped PIN, only on the e-mail address.

  Either it was not a new device but rather was used and was not properly cleaned of all configurations before being sold... and you're the unlucky recipient of a sloppy seller does not complete what they need to do:

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

  To be sure, check inside the e-mail Setup Wizard and see what you have there... If you only have your GMail account, then something really weird happens... and I recommend to contact the seller and make them apply to 'new' State they represented as height (note that is what matters... packaging can always be made to air well... only the issues of representation of sellers).

  You can try the steps from the buyer in the KB above... but from what you describe, I honestly have very deep concern now on the total utility of this unit for you... He would never properly and fully usable.

  Good luck!

• BlackBerry smartphones reinstall contacts

  Hi my phone had to go repair so I managed on the basis of all download on my computer, the problem is I don't know how to get contacts from my computer to my phone. can you please help. Thank you

  First of all, how did you "download everything to my computer?

  I need to move/copy contacts from my Nokia 6500 to bb 8220 pearl, I already downloaded the bb desktop software... ideas pls?

  Hi and welcome to the Forums!

  RIM provides a device switch Wizard to migrate from another SmartPhone to a BB... but only for compatible devices. See this KB:

  • KB05459 How to use the switch device Wizard to switch to another smartphone to a BlackBerry smartphone

  If your old phone is not compatible with the wizard, then RIM more offers the possibility to import ASCII and CSV files. See this KB:

  • KB04312 Create and synchronize with an ASCII export file
    KB11194 How to import contacts from a CSV file to the BlackBerry
  • Sorry, but RIM does no research on how to get your data from your old device and in ASCII format or CSV... it is a function of your old device.

  In addition, you could (I think should) use a desktop PIM for your data (and you should, IMO). You must choose a compatible PIM of this KB. Then download your data from your old device and the PIM Office. Next, configure the BB to sync with the PIM:

• BlackBerry & Smartphones Photos Contact names ceased to show (9650)

  Hello:

  Earlier, I added photos contact to all my BBerry Contacts.  It worked perfectly for quite a while.

  But the last 2 weeks (or more), when I get a call I get no resources and no contact photo.  Just the number, which, if I don't recognize, I'm going to ignore.

  (The reason why I have the names and photos is so I don't have to memorize numbers.  )

  The contact photos are always in my contacts list, so nothing happened to them.  And ss as much as I know I haven't added new applications.  So I'm puzzled as to why they would suddenly stop showing when I get a call.

  Anyone know how I can make them work properly?

  I covered this Council and google for an answer and not found anything.  Thank you very much in advance...

  Hello

  I would recommend to check if you have encryption enabled on the BlackBerry smartphone or press card. Go to the Options-Security Options. If it is enabled, disable it and try again then take out the battery.

  Thank you

• BlackBerry Smartphones Get app world works... the 8520 using a mac...

  Help me please! I tried everything, I just bought a BlackBerry 8520, v5.0.0.681 (Platform 5.2.0.67) and I was so happy, but now I do not know... I can't get anything to work... well ok, I can call and send SMS messages... but I was expecting a little more

  I can not install the app world, I really tried to find solutions before writing, but I can't find anything that helps...

  I tried first on the mobile; It has installed but says something about an unsupported version, so I uninstalled the app...

  then I tried with the desktop software, it gives me this message: BlackBerry Desktop Software could not validate your update to the BlackBerry device. Aborting installation because of the failure of the validation. Some packages contained unsatisfied dependencies...

  If I'm going to try one the web, I get this message after choosing the stem;

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Your BB OS is outdated... you need to update... the current version is 5.0.0.1036. Here's what I recommend... Since you are on MAC, which makes it a bit more difficult that the sets of tools to deal with things are much more limited on MAC:

  (1) properly uninstall the RIM desktop software:

  • KB18771 Install and uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software on a Mac computer

  (2) obtain a new download of the RIM Desktop software:

  • http://us.BlackBerry.com/apps-software/desktop/desktop_mac.jsp?lid=us:BBsoftwareesktopSoftware:MAC & lp...

  (3) install the software on your MAC Desktop

  • KB18771 Install and uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software on a Mac computer

  (4) now run the Desktop software, connect your BB when prompted and perform a clean reload of your BB OS, choose the most recent version that it offers (if all goes well, 5.0.0.1036):

  • KB19915 Perform a clean reload of software applications smartphone BlackBerry using BlackBerry Desktop Software on a Mac computer
  • If you have no data on the BB that concern you, and then simply proceed with this update. If you have data on the BB, do not agree that the update and first perform a manual backup of your BB to your Mac. After the update, you may need to restore from this backup (update COULD take a backup itself and restore for you).

  (5) close the Desktop software and unplug your BB when it's all over.

  Now, you must do these 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

  (2) remove and return Service directories

  • KB05000 Remove the maintenance book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account in the BlackBerry smartphone
  • KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service

  (3) restart to take batt

  • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. 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! Good luck and let us know!

• BlackBerry Smartphones transfer contacts from mobile to new curve BB

  Hi everyone, I just got a new bb and need to transfer numbers from my old curve (which I lost) on this one. All numbers are saved on my laptop in what appears to be a .ipd file? IM useless with this stuff and would appreciate any help. Ive tried about 6 times already but this is not workirking! Pls Heeelp

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Indeed, these IPD files are backups of your BB and are available as a source of food (they are a proprietary format and cannot be used for any other purpose, except by a few 3rd party applications that have been written to analyse). Choose the most recent one (the one with the most recent date and time, as displayed in the File Manager Windows) using this procedure:

• My bb bold blackBerry smartphones get more heated and stops loading

  I have a bb bold 9780 which is about 9 months old... recently I started having this problem with my battery to reach extreme temperatures of 45 c and then sign shows a card that supposed to happen when my battery is fully charged, but gets to 40% and does not load then... I have to put my personal number near the ac to cool up to 29 c to recharge it. even the battery life is very poor... She is barely 4 hours on a full charge... I have 2 batteries... I have a 9000 "BOLD" and I of the 9780 and the two we live the same problems...

  Thanxx in advance

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  It is possible that your battery or BB has encountered a problem... to test, this sequence is necessary:

  1. Get a known good and already fully charged battery... use it in your BB and see what happens
  2. Get access to a BB good and the same known... use your battery in there and see what happens

  The results of this will show if your BB or your battery that has the problem.

  What you describe, it is likely that your BB, which is the root of the problem... to test, I recommend that you try to start safe mode:

  • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

  It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, see what happens.

  If the behavior continues, then well... think what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

  But if the behavior continues mode without failure, you may need to consider more drastic measures - WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload and the process of reloading OS 'skeleton '. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup of your PC... Please see the Backup link in my sig auto on this post for instructions.

• BlackBerry smartphones Add Contact Pro app - download problem

  Hi all

  I have the BB 8520 curve. Last week I bought 'Add Contact Pro' on Blackberry app World. After purchase and during the download I received an error and stopped the whole process. The app didn't download. I sent mail to the developer app three times but no response.

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  I suggest that you clear the cache of the AppWorld application.

  For legacy devices (pre-BB10):

  1. open the App World

  2. go to my world

  3. follow one (and only one!) of these steps:

  3. for the BB keyboard-oriented - hold down the ALT key and press on, in the sequence R, then S, then T

  3B. for touch screen only BBs - hold the num-lock (! 123 button) so that it hangs and then press on, in the sequence 3, then 4, then)

  3 c for the most recent (e, g., OS6 and 7) BB s, see this KB:

  • KB24714 How to clear the cache of BlackBerry App World

  4 AppWorld must close.

  5. If your BB locks after issuing clear cache, do a battery pull reboot

  6. return to AppWorld/MyWorld (it can be slow, while it re - sync). .

  If (4) stage arrives not as described, then the empty the cache failed.

  For BB10 devices:

  • KB33818 Applications in BlackBerry World are stuck in a State facility and cannot be cancelled or removed from the download list

  After the empty Cache, then to re - install the app, please see this KB:

• List of blackBerry Smartphones Delete contacts

  I show three different lists of contacts on my 9310 curve and I want to remove two of them to remove all duplicates. Apart from the removal of each contact individually (I don't want to have to do with nearly two hundred of them) I don't see a way to remove a list of contacts. Anyone got any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance

  Good point.

  I used Blackberry Desktop. When the phone is connected there is an option in the menu device named clear data. When it is clicked, you should see a list of the different types of data, you can choose to delete.

  Each list of contacts is displayed in this list, but only as an address book and a number of entries - you can not see the names of the contacts list.

  If you know the number of entries there are in the list you want to delete (you can see on the phone in the contact list itself) you can select the lists you want to remove. Otherwise, you can remove all the address data and create a new list of contacts in your normal sync source - in my case it was my Outlook contacts folder.

  This is what worked for me.

• Backup BlackBerry Smartphones get BB protect compared to the clouds

  Hello world

  I tried the manual backup yesterday by the site Web de Blackberry Protect. I successfully backed up the first time and made a few changes on my BB Curve 9300. Freed from some space by deleting messages and other data. I also want to return to the top of that State or to this specific point, I did the backup through the site Web of Protect. To my surprise (and I'm not aware) the new backup crushed my previous where in I need important messages I deleted expects that the backup will just create another set of backup rather than crush the other.

  My question is. Are there opportunities that I can restore this backup?

  After a few searches on Google and read messages. I knew that the backup is saved in the cloud that has lost the chances of recovering data backup with recovery tools that I can use.  I thought that if I can retrieve/recover deleted files and even formatted disks, technical staff of BB Protect or RIM could do the same and help me with my problem.

  Hope my message reached the Cloud for RIM or BB Protect administrator.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  First of all... this site is not a channel for any official communication with, support, or climbing to the RIM. This site is a community of users for volunteers who are trying their best to help each other, but we have no access to any system "back-end" to act on your request. If you really need official support from RIM, you must start with your support contract required string that starts with your mobile service provider, which can degenerate case RIM free of charge to the end user if such is always appropriate.

  There is something called incident support, but it costs to just ask the original question, since you are not through the contract, you signed at the time of purchase. If you want to study, you can check it out here:

  • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/programs/technical/incident.html

  OK... with that of the road, see:

  • KB25063 How to use BlackBerry Protect to restore data on a BlackBerry smartphone

  According to who, it should actually be different dates you can use BB Protect backups. If they are not, however, appear for one reason or another, they are not available to you through any means automatic... and you would need official support (above) of a human being to the RIM to see if it can be recovered.

  All this said, I hope that you are not solely on BB Protect for your backup needs. BB Protect only back up (I think) 8 databases, which is a small subset of all the content of all of your valuable data. FYI, here's the process that I always recommend:

  Daily - configure BB Protect to save what he can, preferring to WiFi if the network of consumer data carrier is a matter of concern.

  Weekly:

  If you're not up to BBM7, then manually save your BBM contacts to the memory of your device or Media Card

  • KB20554 How to back up and restore the BlackBerry Messenger contacts list

  Via the mass storage Mode, copy all the contents of the memory of your device and Media Card on your computer

  • KB11879 What is the mass storage mode

  Via the desktop software, perform a full backup of your BB

  • KB12487 How to back up data from smartphone BlackBerry using BlackBerry Desktop Software for Windows
  • KB03974 List of database for the blackBerry smartphone

  There is an old saying:

  • There are two types of computers of users of devices - those who have lost data and those who will be

  As insurance, the backups are reactive or an optional activity. And this process, in my humble OPINION, provides the best protection of all the valuable data that is kept on their BB. When you compare BB Protect backup actually compared this process to protect, I think you will find that the difference is very large. In addition, this process would give you 100% control to keep the previous backups.

  Good luck!

• BlackBerry smartphones download contacts

  Hi, I'm new to the world of blackberry - ask if there is a way to transfer all my contacts from my old nokia to my curve? Or I have to input each one - by - hard - one contact?

  Thank you in advance. S

  Hi and welcome to the forums!

  Usually the seller (Vodaphone in this case) switch them when you buy the unit. I Sue this option first.

  If you use the same SIM which was in the Nokia try the following:

  If this does not work you can try using the Switch Device Wizard in the Desktop Manager software:

• BlackBerry smartphones the contacts app says that there are no contacts butI them had all a few weeks

  I had a BB9900 for a few months and my e-mail, calendar, contacts and tasks were in harmony with the race of my company's BES. I downloaded several gift free apps in App World. Some of the apps require access to personal information on the phone.  Now the Contacts provided with the phone says 'No. Contacts' app, no filter is applied.  I uninstalled the applications that have been installed, since this problem started, but this has not fixed the problem. How can I get my contacts to display once more?
