  • BlackBerry smartphones can not see contacts in the address book after you synchronize with PocketMac

    Model 8830. Macintosh OS 10.5.8. Latest version of PocketMac SYncManager 1.2 (1.4).

    Contacts have been working well. I have sync'd with PocketMac by ticking the peripheral crush, and first of all, I had a lot of duplicate addresses. Second sync seemed to delete ALL my contacts, but by checking the properties of the address book, it shows the 706 entries (twice what a book Mac address

    .)

    Nothing not done, I ran twice SyncClean and 'Reset all devices to the first SYnc State'. I have re-started the Mac and Blackberry several times.

    What to do next?

    I deleted all my data via the Options > Security Options > then wipe Handheld. Necessary for the re-registration

    the BB with the carrier and then by downloading my backed up address book & calendar

    Re-creation of speed dials, themes, ringtones, etc., but it cures the problem of address book.

    My calendar now has 3 copies of holiday in the United States, but I can live with that.

    I find it interesting that nowhere on the site Web Blackberry or PocketMac is there any

    clue on how to clean a calendar book or address munged. Maybe the next

    BlackBerry Desktop Manager will fix this problem.

    3 select right your address book database (or your Calendar database), and then click the arrow in the Middle pointing to the left. This will copy the information on and prepare it for the backup.

    4. once the backup is complete, click the button Clear down to erase, and then clean up the database of book full address (or calendar).

    5. once it is finished, it will ask you if you want to save the backup that you created, say you Yes and check the device to make sure that the address book (or calendar) has been duly cleared out. Now, Resync the necessary contact details and you should be set to go.

  • Is it possible to delete all entries in the Eventvwr log?

    Separated from this thread.

    Is it possible to delete all entries in the Eventvwr log, so I can go back to that is the app is written in the Eventvwr log?

    By default, event viewer produced a considerable number of newspapers.

    The four elements of the menu in event viewer bar are file, Action, view and help.

    Clear a log only appears in the Action menu of drop-down menu if the cursor is placed in a newspaper that can be erased and a report in the list is not currently selected. So if it is placed on the option Windows logs clear a log is unavailable, while "subject of a report in a folder under five is not selected, the option clear a log is available."

    The three main Windows logs files are Application, security, and system. The default file for these logs size is 20, 480 KB, which is larger than necessary. A reasonable size is 2 048 KB. You can easily change the size immediately after clearing the log by using the scrollbar to the right of the maximum log size to change whatever size you choose. In the same time make sure that the box before overwriting is checked. All of your changes by clicking apply then OK. If you have not disabled the first newspaper the system prevents the selection of a maximum file size less than the size of the existing file.

    see that the app is written in the Eventvwr log?

    The system records the entries in the logs. The system monitors everything that happens. Individual applications do not write entries in the Event Viewer logs. It's the system that records the entries on startup applications, stop and crashing!

  • Tour of blackBerry 9630 - entries in the address book multiple Smartphones / synchronize with Outlook 2007

    All data in Outlook is OK.  After the initial synchronization with Tower, everything looks OK.  After the opening address book two or three times, some entries

    are fine – others are duplicated 4 X (categories have disappeared in all the dups).

    I tried to overwrite the data on the device with Outlook data, but the problem resurfaces every time.

    That is what it is?

    Hello jaking777,

    You can try the following:

    Backup your data to the device as shown here. (We would not need the backup, but it is recommended any time you make a change to the data on the device).

    Delete folder Intellisync on your PC as shown here. (This will reset your configuration of PIM in the Desktop Manager).

    Clear the address book on the BlackBerry as described here only the task 2. (This will remove all contacts from the device in order to ensure that your data in Outlook are first updated.)

    Go back to the Desktop Manager and reconfigure your synchronization as shown here , then test the synchronization once more.

  • BlackBerry smartphones, I am unable to restore my address book

    I backed up the data on my blackberry of the flame. I'm now trying to restore and it does everything perfectly but cannot restore my contacts. The notification I get is a gradation from the address book, making it impossible to highlight or it check for restoration.

    It then adds a note on saying: files grayed out are given read-only and cannot be stored.

    Which means that whenever I backup it makes my contacts read-only.

    anyone with the solution of why and how to solve this problem?

    Open the address book on the device. Press the menu button and go to the settings. Turn off sync wireless in settings and then try to restore again.

  • BlackBerry smartphones how show appointments today on the home screen

  • BlackBerry smartphone how to disable internet via the network, but leave the wi - fi on?

    Hi all

    I'm new to Blackberry but love until now.  I have a questionette for you to wizzo on something that left me speechless:

    My rate is not all internet at all (I'm only a poor pensioner!), but it seems that installation is there for me to use it if I do not pay attention if I want to turn it off permanently while installing wi - fi on.  This was possible on my android, but I gave to my wife because the screen is not too sensitive to my skin.  I got the Blackberry the the guy in the store where I bought it, but all he has done is disable data completely so now I can't use it on WiFi either.

    Can you tell me if this is possible and if so, how?

    Thanks in advance.

    As long as your data Services (under manage connections > Mobile Network Options) are lit, you will receive data via Wi - Fi.  When you turn on your Mobile network, you are turning ON the ability to receive calls and texts.  If you do not require these two features to be active (and therefore guarantee 100% that you use not any network data), then let your off Mobile network.  As you said, leaving the disabled Mobile network is similar to airplane mode.

    I hope that clears up any confusion.  Please post back if I'm not understanding something.
