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 restore contacts BBM BB7 after using the BB10

    After testing a device BB10 (hot stuff!), I am now switching to my old camera BB7 (Bold 9900). I activated my Blackberry ID on the original device, but my BBM contacts are not restored.

    It's the same BB9900 that I used before, so all existing contacts are there, however, if I have messages one contact, I get the error message: "X is you as a contact. You want to re - invite X? »

    Thus, it has no restore option in the Options menu.

    How can I restore my BBM contacts on my older BB7 device?

    Thank you!

    When switch it on my BB7, I was prompted for my Blackberry ID quickly, but he was not invited to swap devices for some reason any. Subsequently, there is no option in BBM to restore my contacts list.

    Resolution:

    I already had the latest BBM so I downloaded the latest beta version of BBM on the Blackberry beta Zone. I've been invited "this feature requires a Blackberry ID" for the voice of BBM, who then got to configure my Blackberry id I was then able to choose switching devices. Now, I have all my BBM contacts on my BB7.

  • Notebook data to retrieve blackBerry Smartphones

    Hi all

    I recently sold my Bold 9700 and then realized that I did not manually copy my Memo Pad data any where before I did a cleanup of the device... I would like to make the backups from the BB Desktop Software. .. can I somehow retrieve these data from memo pad from backups without going through another "BOLD" to restore to?... I have a Curve 8320 old I could throw out there if it will take, and/or I can synchronize with Outlook? (no, it wasn't was not sync would be Outlook in the past, because I normally do not use Outlook)... Some of these memos are really important.

    (And sensitive information too, hope they get truly wiped in the erase process.)

    Thank you... Tracy

    OU can restore the 9700 go back to your old 8320.

  • BlackBerry smartphones Add Contact Pro app - download problem

    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.

    Can someone help me on how to download again (I did purchase)?

    Thank you

    Atomleaf

    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:
