Transfer contacts from blackBerry to new Blackberry Smartphones

AT & T replaced my defective Curve 9300.  I already sent the old phone, but I did a backup just before to do.  I want to put this backup on the new curve contacts, but the switch device Wizard won't without connecting to the old phone.  How can I get the contacts of this backup file on my new camera?

Hi Laura,

Connect your BB to the PC and open the Desktop software.

Click the device in the upper left corner, and then select Restore.

I hope that everything is configured correctly and you should see the backup made as an option.

You can do a full restore, or restore selective and only your Contacts if that's your preference.

Good luck, Noah

  • Transfer contacts from blackBerry Smartphones to a Curve 8330 on a BES.

    Hi all

    I am a newbie to BB but recently received for the work.  My problem is trying to transfer the contacts from my old cell phone (Sanyo SCP-7050) on my new Curve 8330.  I took it to my local Sprint store, and they said that contacts can be transferred because the BB was registered on a BES.  The Bluetooth connection no longer works, I guess for the same reason.

    I don't have a chance, or there at - it another way, I can enter my BB contacts?  I have contacts stored as individual card (.vcf) and was hoping there is a way to use the micro SD card to load them on somehow.

    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Since you're on BES, why don't you just DL your vcf to your PC and import them into Outlook? Then BES will be responsible to your BB.

    Good luck and let us know!

Choose the most recent one (the one with the most recent date and time, as displayed in the File Manager Windows) using this procedure:

    Guys pls help me with this.

    I have a 8900, in India and uses the data plan to monitor my personal mail.

    Problem is that 'contacts' shows

    When I go into the options of contacts to the sim phone book (Contacts > sim directory) I can see on 25 contacts. I tried to copy all contacts from the sim directory, but it is not yet appear in contacts (Contacts > sim directory > copy all contacts). When I click this, a status bar goes to 100% in a second, but still show contacts * no contacts *.

    I saved many contacts on this device through the registry of calls and messages, and so when I go on (Contacts > options > contact lists > defauly) the number of entries 320 poster. I noticed it increases as and when I add new contacts.

    Still no contact indicated in "contacts". Therefore have to dial each number of contacts before making a call or the call registry search.

    Can someone help me pls with this. In the meantime if someone could help to let me know how I can make my call register not forget calls to say 10 days or last 100 entries.

    Thanks in advance.

    This can be an easy fix. On your BlackBerry go to Contacts, press Menu, and select filter. Make sure that you disable the filters which are placed.

    Hope this helps,

  • Need help from blackBerry Smartphones to transfer Contacts from Blackberry 8800 for Blackberry Storm 9530

    I tried to use the Desktop Manager software supplied and had two phones connected via USB to my PC.

    I made sure to uncheck the transfer of everything except DATA, which was the only solution. I had no way to go just in a finer selection, like the ability to select only Contacts.

    The Desktop Manager has replaced during ALL my DATA on the storm, including the default mail server, etc..

    I was still able to make calls, but could not receive email or messages from BB because it crushed everything I had

    Can someone direct me as to how to properly use the Desktop Manager so I can just transfer my Contacts.

    Thanks in advance!

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

    Did you use the switch device Wizard in the BlackBerry Desktop Manager?

    Do... to make a complete backup of the 8800 using Desktop Manager > backup. Make a note of where on your PC that the backup is saved as well as the name.

    Now connect the new storm device to the USB port, open Desktop Manager again. Open the backup/restore > advanced.

    Find the backup file in the left pane (use file > open if it does not appear immediately). Located in the database of the address book on the left side and click on the right arrow in the middle to move data to the new device. Follow the prompts and complete the process.

    Good luck.

  • Calendar and contacts from blackBerry Smartphones don't synchronize with outlook 2013 (win8) - in collaboration with IPhone and Ipad air 5s

    Hi all

    I just moved to a new PC (ex: Sony Vaio with win 7 pro, outlook 10 pro > new: duo of vaio from sony with win 8, Outlook 13 home office 365). I used to sync outlook contacts and calendars with blackberry and iphone and ipad on my old laptop using the BlackBerry Desktop Manager.

    Now with my new PC, iphone and ipad are always works well and they synchronize with outlook: new entries on the outlook calendar and new contacts are added to my laptop and vice versa, but when I connect my Blackberry "BOLD" I n get the updates.

    I confirm that I use the latest version of the desktop manager 7.0.

    My organizing Office Manager is configured to sync both calendar and contacts

    Any idea please?

    Thanks in advance for your help

    I'm sorry.

  • List of contacts from blackBerry Smartphones on bearing phone numbers?

    New to Blackberry, but I'm pretty sure when I sync all initially had my Outlook contacts and then displays my contact list and rolled on a name, only phone numbers contacts appear as contacts.  Then I could roll the correct number and dial by pressing the trackball.

    Now, I get no display of phone numbers that I ride on a contact name in the contacts list.  I have to press the trackball or enter key to view info contact set and then select the phone number.

    Have I have big fingers tweaks without knowing?  I have read the manual and searched the web and can't find any arrangement which would alter the display of the list of contacts.  Maybe I just imagined?

    Workaround.  The Act of rolling the trackball on the name of the contact and see the phone numbers of the contacts under the name apparently only works when you use the function of name search from the home screen, and not in the contacts list.

    No need to practice!

  • 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
