Contacts lost blackBerry smartphones

Hello

I have a problem with my contacts. I have lost and cannot recover them, here are the details!

My BT Yahoo account hacked the other day and erased all my webmail times and contacts of BB. Obviously a problem online, but he thinks that it would not be a problem with the BB as saved on the computer. However, when I went to restore to an earlier date, the address book option was not available and has been in a different shade - the note under the list of things to restore pointed out that the elements of different shade will not be restored. However, it indicates the number of entries etc. Is there anyway I can get around this and restore my contacts! Also when I type the addresses in a new email, the address is known.

Please help I got all my contacts with addresses etc too!

Kind regards

Ed

Hello and welcome to the community!

In order to perform the restore, you must first defeat the configuration on your BB elements that allow it to synchronize wirelessly on Yahoo. After that, you should be able to restore from your backup.

Good luck!

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    What you need to do is to find, on your PC, the IPD file created when you backed up. Search your entire hard drive *. IPD. Then use this file as the source of a restoration of your new BB (choose ONE of these KB, depending on the version of the RIM Desktop software you have already installed on your PC):

  • Sync gmail contacts OK blackBerry Smartphones, but can not synchronize Emails

    Dear Blackberry community!

    I recently changed my contract mobile and kept my professional Blackberry Curve 9300.

    I managed to configure gmail and synchronize contacts & the order of the day, but I can't seem to synchronize emails.

    It seems to me that the old configuration blocking private Email-addresses is still active, but I don't know where and how to change.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Of what you say, I read that you had BES enabled on your BB, you have separated from the company/what BES now, but your BB was not properly cleaned of it's political, that continues to limit the things. To remedy this, you perform a specific wiping of your BB as follows:

    1. First of all, review the link of my auto-sig about backups... this process will completely clean your BB and you have to start over.
    2. Once ready, follow this KB to clean your BB of the it policy:
      • KB31291 How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone to factory using BlackBerry Desktop Software Settings
    3. When / if you restore, DO NOT do a full restore, restore only those databases that are essential, especially to avoid those who have something to do with the company, BES, political, etc.. If you fail at this stage and all restore, you simply put it on your BB policy and be right where you started.

    Good luck!

  • Calendar and Contacts icons lost blackBerry smartphones

    I upgraded the software in the last two days and has been move icons on the screen and lost icons calendar and contacts.  The contacts are still on the machine, for sure, because I can get them if I'm going to dial address book.  Not clear on the calendar, although it seems to sync properly (in outlook). Tried to reset by removing the battery, but have the same problem on the screen.  I am doing something stupid?

    I FOUND THEM!  Hidden in the 'Music' box, which I never use. There must be an easier way!

  • Contact Information lost blackBerry smartphones

    I was updating my device software using the desktop software.  He was trying to restore information on my device, when it crashed.  I had chosen to back up my data at the beginning of the process, but a backup file has not been created.  Data it recorded somewhere else I can get it back?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    The backup file indeed must have been preserved. Find your drive hard whole (including hidden and system folders) to a file with the extension of the IPD (*.) IPD). This should bring up the file... then use it as a source for a manual restore.

    Good luck!

  • 'Lost' blackBerry smartphones an icon somehow?

    I seem to have lost the ability to get a list of texts on the 'Instant Messaging' icon on my Blackberry 9300 "BOLD".

    I know... it of old... but aims to talk and text to a particular group for me perfectly.

    I could see a list of all the received texts before, respond to their or implement a new text to a 'Contact' or a new person.

    I can't access that now... I need to reset it or another icon who will do the same thing to the new text.

    Curiously the texts to CONTACTS are available to the title of the RECENT ACTIVITY and I can see them and respond, and they can send texts back, but there is no notification of any reception of new texts.

    I also see texts that I saved in the Messages saved in the Applications folder

    Sorry... I guess the question is what are the options?
    I could go into the Desktop Manager and see if I can add TEXT messages to the device... It is already there, although I can't access the file, so hope that she will be synchronized with an upgrade?
    Otherwise, my next question is how to RESET to factory settings? I am aware that I will lose data, but I backed up now on the desktop?

    You should contact your carrier, they do not follow the registration, but you will need to convience for the IMEI or PIN number. With regard to your location, if the person has erased your device or use a different SIM card then this is not possible. If you had a device password setting then nobody can access your data, if anyone tries then your device will wipe itself. But if you don't have a device password value before disaster then yes it might be able to access your information in this device.

  • Contacts of blackBerry Smartphones will not fully Synch

    Just replace my steam-Office Outlook 2007 to Outlook Express 2000 w that I would send contacts compatible with my new Smartphone 9700 Bold (my 1st blackberry, replacing a really ancient mobile). The names and in some cases e-mail addresses of my Outlook contacts migrate to the handset very well - but nothing else: no phone numbers, nothing. And when I try to do the reverse - manually enter the address/phone no., etc., in the handset, the new information does NOT migrate in Outlook Contacts my laptop - even if it shows there during the synchronization process.  I use the Desktop Manager 4.3.0.17, as the other posts on this forum suggest that supports Outlook 2007.

    No other problems with this - emails making the handset very well.

    The only other variable I can think of, is that when I installed the new Outlook I imported my old contacts in a pst file - but most of these contacts were really rudimentary, mostly only have addresses e-mail. I've been updated manual my files from my old filofax, scraps of paper stuffed in shoe boxes - you get the idea...

    I am a UK user, btw.

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    DTM 4.3.0.17 while reports compatible with Outlook 2007, you would be wise to update DTM to the latest version (5.0.1.28), especially if you have a BB much newer than your version of DTM. Indeed, given what you have described, I would advise a clean boot above. Here is a procedure:

    I suggest the following steps (reboot insert a lot of restarting your PC... not only restarts, but at full power down). In addition, it is recommended that you are connected to the PC on an account with full administrator rights. In addition, under Vista/Win7, use the option "Run As Administrator" for everything.

    (1) remove the package to update your device OS of your PC (Add/Remove Programs)

    (2) properly uninstall the RIM DTM software:

    • KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software

    (3) get a new RIM DTM software download:

    • Choose the version which is more recent and (if any) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchornizing via USB):
    • KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager to synchronize

    (4) to download a new copy of your package to your carrier OS device (on your PC):

    (5) install DTM on your PC

    Installation of 6) (also on your PC), device OS package

    (7) start the configuration Organizer:

  • Problem of Contact of blackBerry Smartphones

    I hope someone can help?

    I lost all contacts, but have since this sorting by removing the filter but still have the following problem: -.

    When I select a contact to send an SMS message to, and then press a button to search under a specific letter, it shows a number or can't find any contact information. The number it retrieves matches the I am pressing the button. Could a speed dial have been implemented by any chance?  Was all working fine until it contacts gone, are the two connected? Doing my head in, please help.

    Thank you very much

    1 once, ensuring that all THE filters have been unchecked.

    2. a reboot simple: with the BlackBerry device powered on, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.

    Lost my beloved 8330 with tons of data into it, but I have an old backup to a month using Blackberry Desktop Manager V 4.3.0.17.

    Verizon wanted to know if I wanted to Android. No, I'm staying with Blackberry, so I got a new Blackberry Bold 9650.

    BUT... big but Blackberry Desktop Manager seems to have no way to allow me to put this old backup of data in the new 9650.

  • Contacts from blackBerry Smartphones does not work after software update

    Anyone else having problems with their Contacts button? I installed the updated software version yesterday morning and now whenever I click on Contacts, I get a message saying that "Unfortunately, has stopped Contacts" and the only option I had was to report this to crash the first time; now, I can only choose "OK". I tried to restart my phone, but it did make a difference.

    He worked before that, I only left a micro-SIM with my Z10 to a nano-SIM for the Priv Monday night (4th) and started using it yesterday (5th) whole and I me join and links contacts before this happened.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi everyone, just a quick update: it turns out that it's a problem/bug BlackBerry already know and are trying to solve. There was an update from 01/09/16 for the Contacts app, but it doesn't seem to work when I installed the update. Workaround that I was advised to use in the meantime is as follows:

    • Deselect auto-updated option on Play store -in the game store, tap 3 horizontal lines in the 'search' box to set up your account > settings > auto-update apps > not auto-implementation update app
    • Contacts to revert to the version of factory default - settings > Apps > select Contacts and then:
    1. Click on clear Cache
    2. Press Force
    3. Press on uninstall updates
    4. Press OK when you are prompted to do so
