Help blackBerry Smartphones! IPD file

A sad morning I wake to find that my BB screen was white. He could still receive calls, take those who were on the speed dial of a received SMS (although what was the point of that?). Judging by the fact that he still has the personilized rigtones, I guess that the contacts (like everything else) is still intact.

The problem: I desperately need to get my contacts. My old phone is not all the numbers I had in my wonderful BB. The problem becomes even more important, because I live in Russia and basically we don't have a lot of places that repair BB.

I managed to find the RPI on the computer file, but need to open it (contacts will be there?). The question is how.

Help, please!

You can use the extractor ABC Amber IPD to retrieve the contacts of your IPD backup file.

    How could I read ipd files in my computer?
    The idea is to modify or add data to my contacts in my phone, which is much easier to do in my blackberry, a transfer then the changed file on my phone via the Blackberry Desktop Manager.

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    A few things to discuss... so bear with me...

    IPD files are designed for one purpose... backup and restore. They are not intended for any other use. There are 3rd party IPD readers out there (ABC Amber?), but I don't know if they allow the edition you want. But your problem is actually not that... on the contrary, your problem is how to enable the use of a PIM desktop as the master of your data and who synchronize with your BB. Therefore, keep reading...

    Unlike other how things, RIM does not provide a desktop PIM. Others force you to use their PIM and only their PIM. RIM provides a driving software that works as a bridge between your PIM and the BB. See this compatible PIM KB:

    • KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager to synchronize

    So, your path is, IMO, choose a compatible PIM (from above). Then download your data out of your BB and in the desktop PIM (a single one-way synchronization of your BB to the PIM, should achieve). Next, configure the BB to sync with the PIM on a permanent basis:

    There are two methods for recovering for you to try:

    Method 1:

    • Open the Blackberry Desktop Software and connect your device to your PC with the USB OEM cable and without inserting the battery.
    • You will get three options: try again, update or cancel; Click Refresh.
    • Once, it is at the stage of initialization of 'pocket', insert the battery.
    • If this does not work, and you get stuck on the safeguarding of social data feeds, go to the second method below.

    Second method:

    • Start your BlackBerry in safe mode. KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe
    • Connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software and allow handheld to connect. If you are prompted to update, cancel the upgrade for later.
    • IF you can not connect or your desktop software does not recognize your device in Mode safe, please follow the instructions here to force detection: Article ID: KB10144 how to force detect the BlackBerry smartphone using the Application Loader
    • Go to device > delete > SELECT DATA > select this option to remove the Social flow and smart card data bases and follow the rest invites you to complete.
    • Now, you can go back and click to update the device through the Desktop Manager, or restart the BlackBerry in normal mode and continue on the upgrade of the air.

    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.

    KB10339 How to restore data from a backup file to a BlackBerry smartphone

    If you don't know where is the backup file, search your entire hard drive for a file with an extension of the RPI (*.ipd). Inspect the results - mainly date/time of the file. Select the candidate most likely and use it as a source in the above procedure.

    Hello tooblackish

    Welcome to the Forums of the BlackBerry Support

    Sorry for the trouble, but I noticed this same problem with few other users, who could not send pings to any BlackBerry 10 there BlackBerry 7 devices.

    To solve your problem, I suggest to re-install BlackBerry Messenger!  To do this on your homescreen go to Options > device > application > locate and remove BlackBerry Messenger from there. After deleting to do a battery pull reboot as this device powered on remove the battery wait a min. then reinsert back.

    KB10040  : How to display or remove installed application on a blackberry smartphone   

     

    Finally, after the reboot, use your BlackBerry browser and go to www.blackberry.com/bbmdownload and download the latest available for your phone model. If device reboot prompt do then sign in with your ID BlackBerry even.

    Try it and tell us how it goes.

  • Need help from blackBerry Smartphones: send files via Bluetooth for my Curve 8900

    Hi all

    Earlier this week, I made the change to a BB and overall I am very happy with it, but there is a thing that is annoying on the phone and despite my efforts and a lot of tinkering, I was not able to solve this problem, I'm looking for help.

    I try to send files to other Bluetooth devices to my BB 8900 and I can't do work of t. strangely, I can send my BB files to other Bluetooth devices with no problems but I can't send things on my device.

    I lived the articles (e.g. http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB04132&slic... )

    but in vain.

    In a nut shell, I enabled bluetooth on my camera, I made detectable and combined with other devices that I am trying to transfer files from, I went into options of the terminal for these devices and their confidence, and then I tried to send files.

    If I send from another phone (LG viewty) or Nokia E61i, I get an error message indicating that "send failed".

    If I send a computer that was paired, I select the file I want to send > right click > sent to > Bluetooth > other and select my BB8900 in the list of paired devices. At this point, the computer appears to try to send the file, but I am presented with an error message indicating "file transfer Service is not found on device BB8900."

    Why is this? How do I am able to send files to my BB 8900 but not sent to it, and what can I do to solve this problem?

    This problem is causing me a lot of grief that I have given on other phones, I need to transfer to my new BB, unfortunately I do not have a USB cable to one of the phones, so Bluetooth is the best alternative.

    Please can someone help!

    Thanks in advance,

    /Chuck

    OK, so after re-reading of this last KB article, I realized that I was a complete dunce!

    I have now managed to successfullty receive pictures and audio files on my BB.
