BlackBerry Smartphones where are my contacts saved on my computer?

I backed up my bb storm 9500 to my computer using the bb Desktop Manager. I now need access to my contacts list on my computer that my phone is broken and far to repair. I have no other way to get some contacts but can't seem to find where, on my computer, he decided to store them so that I can view.

Help, please

Thank you

Hello and welcome to the Forums of Support BlackBerry.com.

Your backup files are stored in a *.ipd file extension, often in your 'My Documents' folder.

So, look over there, or search the entire of your PC for *.ipd and you should find it.

Now, the IPD file is not usable by any other program except the BlackBerry.

If you want to use the data in this file, you will need an application named ABC Amber IPD Converter to extract the address book, etc., for use.

When you get your BlackBerry back, you can use the IPD file to restore your data to the new device.

  • BlackBerry smartphones where are my contacts/pictures?

    My name is Kofi, and recently, I lost my BB.  I never really had any use for my manager of office except for back to the top of my unit.  My last backup was Sept. 8.  Now when I look into the window location 7 says that my backup is stored, my PC makes me choose an app to read the backup.  I "tried the software adobe reader, microsoft office, windows media player, etc. and I realized that I don't really know what im doing and I need help." I'm starting to wonder if I still backed up my BB information.  I would really appreciate it if someone is willing to get in touch with me to get out.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones where are my pictures

    I can't find some of my photos.  Some of them stored in the Device Manager, and then some are shops in the media card. When I pull up in my pictures, I get only to see the pictures in the media in the device.  Now, I don't see even the media card link?  Where are they?

    Thank you.

    You are probably well connected the USB cable to the PC, and if so, your card with active Mass Storage is not visible SINCE the BlackBerry itself at that time here.

    Unplug the USB cable from the BB, and your photos and multimedia card should reappear.

    If not, look at the Options > Media Card. Do you want to show your card media present on the device?

    How to import contacts from Yahoo BB contacts? I can't believe that it is not possible... Can anyone help?

    Philippe

    Philip, you are welcome.

    I would recommend first to import this file in to your Yahoo contacts on Yahoo mobile web page where are your contacts. These contacts would then sync over to your BlackBerry address book. This is the simplest method.

    Alternatively, you can use a version prior to the BlackBerry Desktop Software v6.1 or lower, to import a CSV file into your BlackBerry.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones only restore BBM contacts - how?

    Hello

    How can I restore ONLY my BBM contacts using the desktop software?  I looked through the choice of data but none like the right. I have a Torch 9800 and I use the latest office software. (6.0 bundle 1907)

    I use my BB especially for work it is setup with connection of mail company so last week when I had problems they have wiped my BB and now my email and business contacts sync works well again but I lost all my BBM contacts.

    In the restore office option, I use the "select parameters and device data" to select data to restore, but I cannot easily determine what type of data I should be restore so I didn't wipe my e-mail contacts existing or other parameters. Given that I had about 60 BBM contacts fields that show a counter that is close (and therefore looks promising) to the correct quantity are: Messages, folders, store of Trusted keys, stored key pocket, and recent contacts.

    Any help or thoughts are appreciated.

    No, you're not... the latest version is 6.1.0 Bundle 34...

    See this KB for a list of all databases on the BB:

    • KB03974 List of all databases on the BlackBerry smartphone

    The appropriate injector is there. It's a shame you didn't otherwise save your BBM contacts... BBM itself offers the possibility to make a backup of contacts... I've always found that more useful than the ability to backup/restore of desktop software.

    Thanks for your help. I decided to check with my Blackberry service provider, and they were able to fix the problem by simply removing and then reinsert the cell phone battery while it was connected to my computer. The old trick 'the battery '. Never thought of that.

    Thanks again!

  • HELP blackBerry Smartphones... transfer contacts

    Blackberry style 9670 phone. has just been cut. no power nothing. I got a replacement phone. How to transfer my contacts because the phone is dead. Incidentally, I have blackbery protect on the dead phone. How to recover information. phone is dead... Please HELP

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    If the old BB is really dead, then it is not available as a source for restoring your data to your new device. Instead, you must use another source, one that you created before the old BB died.

    If you made a backup of office, you can use the backup as a restore source file:

    • KB10339 How to use BlackBerry Desktop Software to restore data from a BlackBerry smartphone from a backup file

    If you were synchronizing with a Desktop Organizer (for example, Outlook), then you can use that as source for restore reconfiguring the RIM Desktop software now work with your new BB:

    • KB03315 How set up the synchronisation of data using BlackBerry Desktop Software organizer

    As you use BB Protect, is also an available food source:

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

    You must be sure to connect to, on the new BB, the same BB ID that you used on the old BB. If you have already created a new ID BB on this new BB, then you go to your old ID BB:

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

    This will allow even you to migrate other things that were on your old BB - for example, documents of purchase/download AppWorld.

  • BlackBerry smartphones where and how to log-in to my blackberry id

    IM new blackberry torch and im so lost. I managed to log-in before my BlackBerry id a few times maybe by chance, but I can't find it when I want it... where I should look?

    whenever I want to get an app im always asked to log-in, but my ID is not accepted even if I reset it successfully. When I try to connect you again to get an app it always send an error.

    can someone help me pls...

    Thank you

    First of all, a lot of people seem to have problems with connection and BlackBerry ID that are not accepted.  I know that BlackBerry e-mail servers have declined somewhat recently, perhaps this is related.

    To connect to AppWorld, open AppWorld on your phone.  Click on My World in the lower corner.  From this screen, press the menu to the left of the trackpad button and open a session from there.  Once connected, you can choose the account information by pressing this same menu key again.  This is where you can change your password if necessary.
