Contacts Outlook of Smartphones blackBerry vs BB device
I was victim of a different Contacts problem after update to the last version of my BB.
1. many of my contacts, used like rabbits.
2. when I deleted one of the instances that each of them could be erased.
3. I deleted ALL that my contacts have been wiped out.
4. I entered a 'new' old contact, and he suffered the problem of multiple entry. I gave up counting at 34 copies.
5. I deleted one instance and they all disappeared.
6. I dropped.
I was away from my office and was unable to sync my contacts (v. 5.0.0.1015).
Other problems:
1. I tried to Resync and found that BB would add EACH deleted entry since I bought my BB.
2. now, when I tried to Resync, not worrying about mistakes, I got a 0x8004fb3 error. I'll watch this one now.
I am running XP SP3 not Win7.
All entries KB yet? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
John
The 'Solution' is to come back to the last good system software. All the problems have disappeared and I didn't have to go 500 + contacts to find space in one of the 3 email addresses.

Contacts of MS Outlook of Smartphones blackBerry of 17000 to 25000 synchronization
Last year, I bought and sold several smartphones, including the M900 ASUS, Sony Ericsson Xperia X 1 and Nokia N97 shortly after purchase (and lose several hundred dollars each time) because I couldn't sync my contacts about 17 000 to 23 000. Their internal memory have not been able to accommodate all my contacts from MS Outlook that can go up to 120MB in size. I have currently a HTC Touch with about 200 MB internal memory, but I'm not able to old data despite me install a good number of the telephony applications. I'm now plans to buy the Blackberry Storm, which has about 256 MB internal memory. Can he adapt the abundant amount of contacts I have? Alex.

Hello world
I just got my first BlackBerry (storm) and this is my first post on the forums. I read around a lot and found pieces of this problem but no definitive answer (which I understand). So, I know it's a delicate subject, but really hope that someone can help you.
FYI, I use Windows Vista and Outlook 2003 with the connector Outlook synchronize my e-mail, contacts and calendar on my Windows Live Hotmail account.
I installed the Desktop Manager software V.4.7 and crossed to set up > sync and selected Outlook for Contacts. The wizard all seems to work OK but then when I press "Finish" I get the error message ' file is does more part of the system data source or the couldnot folder is located.
I partially understand the idea that my Contacts are not in Outlook, they are in my hotmail/live account. My question is how can I work around this problem and import my contacts to the BlackBerry? It will not accept an exported .pst file or can it link directly to hotmail?
(On the basis of the advice on the forum), I found is you go into Outlook and adjust the settings of your e-mail account to send incoming emails into "Personal folder" instead of "* @hotmail.co.uk ' then he manages to pass the error message, however, I found no data calendar or contact in my outlook personal folders for BlackBerry to synchronize with a time that I did."
I'll try to do a few requests on a Microsoft forum on the features between Outlook and Hotmail to see if there is an easy way to get my data anywhere in the personal folders so that the BlackBerry it can sync from there. I'm afraid to lose emails or functionalitly to the Outlook Connector on my PC to subsequently change the default e-mail folder.
Sorry for the length of the message but thought the more detail the better - thanks in advance for any help you can offer,
Al.
Just in case anyone else has this problem, I got a work around (not a solution, but it works). In Outlook, go to Contacts - export to file and select: separation by comma (Windows). CSV file - save it to your PC.
Then open a Yahoo mail account (if you have not already one) go to Classic view, Contacts and to the right of the screen, there is an option to import/export. Select the location of the CSV file you saved on your PC and transfer it on Yahoo.
You can now go through the DM Assistant and select sync with Yahoo. It is ideal to add contacts to the phone for the first time. Don't forget to make sure that everything is up-to-date and complete in Outlook Contacts before export to the CSV file.
If you want to add contacts to the future, the best way is to add to Outlook first and then go through the process of exporting the CSV file again - this will ensure that all records are the same. Although if you wanted too, you can also export from BB in Yahoo, then in Outlook as Yahoo also exported contacts to a CSV file.
Hope that helps someone...

I am a beginner BB but computer user who slowly found pieces of the overall concepts of how my Blackberry is part of mail etc., servers local applications, Bluetooth, USB. (Links to concepts of BB rather than appreciated step-by-step instructions!)
Here is my current problem: to connect my BB to my PC via Bluetooth it seems there are two places, I can do that: either in the "Bluetooth devices" item in Control Panel - or - in Device Manager Blackberry device with the button «Set up Bluetooth» connection tab
These two make it appear very similar windows that allow me to 'Add' a Bluetooth device, but they are clearly different applications. What is the difference? They are for the same purpose? Or are they totally different things such as plug in headphones to BB vs connect BB to the PC?
(Vista Business 32 bit;) Reference Dell D630 with BT. BB 8830)
Thank you

For the unknown error said check this KB. With windows Vista, disable UAC normally solves the problem. Something to try if the KB does not is, click on the button to reset configuration (synchronization, configuration tab)
See you soon!

Contacts transfer to Smartphones blackBerry "BOLD" for hands-free kit does not work
Hello
I use almost all types of BlackBerry for recent years. So far I never had no problem with bluetooth, so I'm surprised that I have a problem of bluetooth with my "BOLD". In my car, I use a JVC NX 5000 audio/navigation/ipod/bluetooth while something. All the audio features work very well. The problem is transfer my addresses for the hands-free kit. This function works very well with all the previous BlackBerry pocket but not with the "BOLD". The error message on the "BOLD" refers to JVC, strange enough documentation that all previous handheld computers has functioned.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Thierry
I guess I solved the problem. I remembered that some carkits have a limit of 500 numbers (BMW?). It turns out that the JVC (with hard drive) has the same question. So after removing some contacts outdated everything worked fine.

Smartphone BlackBerry 8700 c Device Manager and does not AT ALL
So, I recently got a Blackberry 8700 c and for some reason, the Device Manager does not work. As my computer will make a dadunk noise when I connect my Blackberry via USB cable, but it doesn't register that my blackberry is connected. I can not go on my computer and actually click on my blackberry.
I have windows vista and the software Manager for the device that I use is that I received in the box. 4.1
I'm also using AT & T please help.
All I want to do is to be able to connect to my computer and download themes and all I want the phone. But it does not work
Jsanders thanks for your help, but I managed to understand! I got the Desktop Manager 4.1 version so I downloaded and installed to 4.7. That fixed my connection problem. And while I was home I decided to take the update of the software 4.5 versio and which is installed on the phone right now. I backed up all of my information and everything.
I took risks and went with my instinct. And I fooled with driver vista settings. So far, everything is smooth.
I used to mod motorola phones so I had sort of an idea of what to do initially. But the Blackberry intimidates me so. Haha!

Smartphones blackBerry Curve 8900 Device Software for Rogers - DAMAGED Setup FILE
Hi all
I was wondering if someone else ran into this problem (if there is no BlackBerry Rogers on this forum). I tried to download and run the software for the device for Rogers out of the BlackBerry and the installation site, I came across the following error message:
"Error 1335. The file 'Data1.cab' required for this installation is damaged and cannot be used. This may indicate a netowkr error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package. »
When I try clicking on ignore, I get this message:
"Error 2350. FDI Server error. "
I wish that I was good enough to know what that means, but I'm completely lost here. I tried to install this on two machines (XP Home SP2) and Vista, both give me the same problem.
I feel there may be a problem with the software on the site. Could someone else confirm this or get an idea of what to do?
Thank you

you are absolutely right

Emails from Outlook to Smartphones blackBerry - BIS vs Desktop Redirector - which is best?
Okay, I need advice from someone who's been there-done-that.
I've read tons of posts on Outlook email sync and now I am totally confused.
I do not have a BES and I need to sync my email to work wireless (calendar would be nice too, but I won't get it gourmand) for my 8110.
What is the best option: BIS or Desktop Redirector?
Can someone give me advice?
Thanks in advance
Hello!
Well, better judgment, IMHO - is so subjective to every persons wishes. But here are a few facts that may help you choose.
The two methods only provide you with email OTA - you need to use captive sync for the rest.
BIS - your business email must have a compatible Internet email interface (for example, OWA, POP, IMAP) and must not use an ISA device. If you can already get your email from the company from a PC that faces the gross internet (for example, without going through a VPN tunnel), then it is most likely that the BIS may work.
Desktop Redirector - this requires a PC to be left on all the time, connected to your corporate email (whether inside your corporate network or via VPN tunnel), so that it can get new emails and send them to your BB.
My preference goes BIS since it requires not just always on the PC (which can easily have a hiccup any who needs attention practice to rectify). But that's my preference.
Hope that helps!

BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Torch 9800-device update problems
Recently received a notice on my BB Torch 9800 that my device was in need of an update of the software of the device of the RIM. Update I noticed that all my settings have changed. All the programs I downloaded now passwords still need once and all my settings i.e., ringtones, calendar alerts, are changed. I have to go through this every time that RIM indicates that a software update is available? Gives a never want to update. Gets to be a chore. Initially, it took several attempts to get rid of the annoying alerts, birthday and anniversary repeated that kept appearing on the homepage. Whenever I get a alert now to a text or an email, I begin to receive a list of all alerts birthday, 20 to 30 of them, all over again. The programs I use, like Poynt and YB (directory telephone yellow pages) are now asking to accept the terms and launch service all over again. This happens whenever a software update is available, and import these software updates to do?
Welcome the aggressors!
Upgrades are not absolutely necessary, but if you are like me, I always have the latest and best on my devices.
I guess you did your upgrade of the device over the air? I have yet to try an upgrade in this way. I prefer the old way via the Desktop Manager or using BBSAK (BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife - a pure small utility app).
You do regularly backups? If not, it's something you should do, especially in a case like this where you have lost all your settings. Any upgrade process should offer you the chance to save your device before installing the new OS. As I said above, I have not yet tried the OTA Update method, so I don't know how this process works in what concerns the backup of your device. Whence the back up to go, anyway? And how get it back you if something is wrong? These questions alone made me hesitate to use the method of the OTA.
Anyway, as you have discovered, one of the disadvantages of upgrades of the OS is having to reset your third-party applications. Unfortunately there is no way around that.
In summary, if your device does what you want it to do and you're not having any problems, ignore the advice of update and leave well enough alone.
