BlackBerry Smartphones view Contact without numbering?

• 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

  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:

  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:

• 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:

  Import contacts from the SIM card to your contact list

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

  Hello!

  If it is compatible, provided by RIM device switch Wizard will accomplish the task. You can read about it here:

  • KB05421 What is switch device Wizard
  • KB05459 How to use the switch device Wizard to switch to another smartphone to a BlackBerry smartphone

  If this isn't the case, then you must use whatever your other device provides and export the data to a CSV file. Then, you can use the RIM software to import in the BB:

• BlackBerry Smartphones copy contacts from Nokia 6500 to bb 8220 pearl flip

  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:

• List of contacts from blackBerry Smartphones on bearing phone numbers?

  New to Blackberry, but I'm pretty sure when I sync all initially had my Outlook contacts and then displays my contact list and rolled on a name, only phone numbers contacts appear as contacts.  Then I could roll the correct number and dial by pressing the trackball.

  Now, I get no display of phone numbers that I ride on a contact name in the contacts list.  I have to press the trackball or enter key to view info contact set and then select the phone number.

  Have I have big fingers tweaks without knowing?  I have read the manual and searched the web and can't find any arrangement which would alter the display of the list of contacts.  Maybe I just imagined?

  Workaround.  The Act of rolling the trackball on the name of the contact and see the phone numbers of the contacts under the name apparently only works when you use the function of name search from the home screen, and not in the contacts list.

  No need to practice!

• BlackBerry smartphones can not call numbers from contact list?

  Hi, I have a blackberry curve 8350 and for some reason whenever I try to call a number in my contacts list, it indicates the code or number I dialed is incorrect, and please try again.

  I know that the number is just because they can call me very well, if I dial the number calling me, but when I try to do from the list of contacts it just won't let me.  Its a problem because I don't remember hundreds if the number I have stored.

  I noticed that when my phone is to dial the number, it always puts a sign before the number as his try dialing international or something.  For example I want to call 216-478-9876, but my phone dial + 216-478-9876.

  I'm so lost, and any useful information would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you

  Welcome to the Bennie06 forums

  I think it has to do with your smart dial settings. In the list of phone go to menu > Options > Smart Dialing. Make sure your country code is + 1 if you are in the USA/Canada. I think it will work. If this isn't the case, post back with the settings were there.

• BlackBerry Smartphones getting contacts to display in single line mode / without company name

  Hello

  I have recently updated our 8310 CEO of 4.2.2.146 at 4.5.0.81 that changed how contacts are displayed in AB - 4.2.2 as a result displays each entry on one line, 4.5.0.81 shows name + company for each entry and takes two lines.

  Does anyone know how to change it online / if it's possible--two lines is a bit prettier, but habits are habits...

  Thank you very much

  It's just not possible... I'm sorry.

• How to retrieve BlackBerry Smartphones BBM contacts

  Just abandoned my flipphone for an unlocked BB Bold 9900... In an attempt to pass into the modern ear, I saved a BB Contact on the SIM (just to see if I can do it...) Now, my BB shows a SIM contact, and I can't go back to the BB Contacts. Saw no commentary on the manual. Can you tell me where to go to return the function Contacts BB?  Thank you.

  I'm sorry. I had your son marked for more later. I must have been on the move. In addition, I didn't a quick response because I don't understand exactly what you were asking.

  I glad you solved the problem, but I am still confused and I would understand.

  Thus, the SIM card can store names and phone numbers. Was the problem that the BlackBerry address book showed only the address book SIM and you couldn't switch back to BlackBerry address book?

  If this is the case, there is an easier way. I don't have it now, but it probably does not matter.

  My advice is to use the BlackBerry address book. You can store details, and now devices need not store contacts on the SIM card. If you don't need to understand how to move back without having to remove the SIM card and reinsert and you don't see how to do it, post back and I will help to understand.

• BlackBerry smartphones HELP - CONTACT EXPORT REQUIRED... DEVICE LOST / STOLEN

  I've been a happy customer with an old BLACKBERRY PEARL FLIP # 8220 which was purchased new by my best friend in 2009 or 2010 and given to me by him, in 2012 - 18 months. He was beginning to have some edge left and right keys work less ideally, but it was always my very basic needs: I have an old boy who lives in 6 blocks from work and walk 10 minutes between places... and I use the internet very weakly at work and barely at all, at home, and I really don't need it between these places , so I only have a cheap incredibly good CHAT / SMS plan - without data plan (@<$32 th,="" total="" -="" incl="" tx="" and="" fees!).="" i="" send="" about="" 2-3="" txt-msgs="" (sms="" only)="" per="" day;="" and="" i="" get="" even="" fewer!="" i="" use="" the="" talk="" feature="" maybe="" 1-2="" times="" in="" 2-3="" days.="" i'm="" a="" virtual="" non-user,="" i="" admit.=""  people="" laughed="" at="" why="" i'd="" even="" have="" a="" smart="" phone="" that="" literally="" wasn't="" at="" all="" smart...="" but="" it="" was="" because="" i'd="" admired="" my="" friend's="" phone's="" appearance="" and="" functionality,="" and="" because="" it="" was="" free="" to="" get="" from="" him,="" and="" because="" he="" helped="" me="" switch="" companies="" to="" a="" lower-cost="" plan="" running="" on="" gsm="" (rogers)="" not="" cdma="" (telus).="" i="" didn't="" even="" use="" bbm,="" let="" alone="" any="" e-mail="" or="" other="" internet="" functions,="" games,="" apps,="" even="" gps.="">However, despite these rare and apparently "Mute" use, I got very valuable contacts in the phone that other people envy...) I NEED those.

  The DESKTOP MANAGER version that I got from my best friend when he gave me his old phone is 4.6 v - and he said that it had been updated when he gave it to me. I realize that v6 is now standard (or even more?) and support for older versions disappeared. I also see that this v6 has characteristics which 4.6 do not...

  I backed up before I went to Toronto September 13. I doubt that there is more than 1-2 new contacts, if even that many, who have not been saved. It's as up-to-date as I could understand...

  I'm on ROGERS wireless in the Canada.

  So: I happened to me just to pinpoint a phone no - BB that I like and I bought it with the intention of change when I got some time. I'm moving out of country in one year and I'm slowly getting things in place for this and I was intending to spend a recent phone and thenunlock the BB to have in reserve, but I accidentally lost my Blackberry mid-weeklast week when I went out a taxi... and it may be gone forever now. 3 days only after obtaining the next phone that I had planned to use it, I lost that before I could even spend!  I know that ROGERS has a PHONE FINDER function, but let's just say that wasn't functional in my case... we'll leave it at that.

  So, phone / device gone!

  I hope that someone can guide me to export these contacts that are somewhere, somehow existing / resident in DESKTOP MANAGER v4.6 - in a format that I can then use to not having all the lost forever, and then I can re - load - manually, if need be - on my new phone. I realize that they exist, but not in any format I can see / use, at the present time.

  Can someone help me?  I see forums / discussions and messages that show how to synchronize the device to record for export, synchronize and create a CSV, or save to export to EXCEL, but they that seem to all be configured the DESKTOP MANAGER and THEN sync with the device... I don't have the camera longer... it's gone. I've never done this before because I didn't plan the need... stupid me, I know!

  I can recover the contacts from my DESKTOP MANAGER v4.6 somehow?

  Help?

  Thank you!

  After reading some info on these forums, the ONLY thing I can even think to do is maybe trying to borrow from someone a is no longer necessary to BB and with it wiped THEIR contacts, synchronize it at my DESKTOP MANAGER and then load my contacts on other than BB... and then re-sync the things that BB with the appropriate buttons checked in the DESKTOP MANAGER?  I don't even know if it works... and I don't seem to have access to spare / balls unused of the people... no one I know has one, and still less a 'extra! '

  Thank you, once again,

  Paul

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  First, find the file to backup data on your computer. It is normally stored somewhere in the area of my documents, but when you performed the backup, you have full control over the destination folder for the backup data file. Given the version of the desktop software you mention, it probably has an extension of IPD file... the newer versions of Desktop software switched to a BBB file extension, but yours is probably IPD.

  Once you find the file, your next step is your favorite internet search engine... the Desktop software is useless for what you do, because it is exclusively an interface with a BB device... nothing else. Search for your favorite Internet for something like "IPD File Extractor" search engine or something similar. There are several out there.

  Compare search results and make your choice - before ask you, the answer is no... We cannot recommend one over the other. You must choose based on your own personal set of circumstances.

  Then, get the software and use it to extract your data from the IPD file and save it in a "readable" format (for example, .txt, .xls, .csv, etc.).

  Once that is done and your data are in a file format that you can use, then your next step is to find what you need to do to import into your replacement unit. Yet once, before asking, nothing here in this forum dedicated BB available to help you with that. But if this device has an import function, then once you have your data in a usable format, you should be able to handle such that you can format to import your new device.

  Good luck!
