Update to V 5.0 blackBerry Smartphones and lost everything

Hi, I just install on my mac and accidentally updated software up-to-date without realizing it would cause me to lose my contacts, sought an ipd file but impossible to find out what can someone tell me please in the right direction.

Thank you

Hello

I don't think that there is another way to get back them unless they have been backed up previously, if you connect the handset and will make a backup it will show the file, it saves files, while ensuring that you have double checked that folder?

If they are saved in the SIM card you can recover, but that, in my view, they are lost

Hope this helps

  • Update on 9360 bb curve blackBerry Smartphones software

    Hello

    my phone needed to update the software so I chose for her to do. However, it has reached the stage where it is back up my data, but it has now ceased on 12% overal completion for several hours. I took battery out and tried again, but it has again reached the same point and doesn't seem to make any progress.

    Any suggestions on what I should do? is there a problem with my phone or does it take time?

    Help!

    Nicola

    Two options to try:

    One:

    • Open Blackberry Desktop Software & connect your device with the PC using the USB cable, without inserting the battery.
    • You have three Retry option, update or cancel, and then click Update.
    • Once it is at the stage of the "initialization of pocket" update, then insert the batteries.
    • If this does not work, and you get stuck on the safeguarding of social data feeds, go to the second method below.

    Second:

    • Start your BlackBerry in safe mode.  Article ID: KB17877 how to start a mode BlackBerry smartphone without failure http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17877
    • 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.
  • Error of BlackBerryID blackBerry Smartphones and to protect

    I received a notice to upgrade BlackBerry ID.

    I did it.

    Was then reboot needed. Restarts OK.

    NOW I have a updated BlackberryID but disabled BBProtect

    Protect wants latest BBID, but when a window appear to download a new version of BBID the result is "there no new version for BBID' (I have just one last)

    BBM also wants the new version of BBID.

    I tried to reinstal Protect: impossible

    Protect the Web works in all functions: find, sing the ear and send the message to the device.

    What is the solution?

    "attempts"? I don't understand...

    My company does not help me for the specific App problem to my terminal.

    There is no sound wireless problem or a bug.

    In fact, the one that your provider tells you is wrong. Your carrier is responsible for the delivery of all services on your device, which is BBID to 100%. As a result, they are also 100% responsible for all official support for all services you pay for. Consider... you don't pay them... and they deliver. Only, they (your operator) have access to their systems to verify what is happening. Only they (your operator) have access to the formal escalation chain so that your problem could receive official assistance from BlackBerry. Please see this "sticky" post, and the son to which it connects, for more useful information to guide you as you go:

    I hope that this information will be useful to you.

    If you want yet to try to seek a formal support, then your next step would be a full reload of the OS on your device. If you want to try that, then please conduct and first review the backup process discussed via the link below in my sig auto on this post.

    Once you have a full backup, then the easiest way is to, on a PC (you can't do this on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below.

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

    5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

  • Update of the software of blackBerry Smartphones

    Hi, my wife has a 9320 BB and I have a BB9900. Whenever a software update is available, I tend to update both at the same time via the BB Desktop Software. (the last being 7.1.2061).

    Today I plugged BB9320 my wife to the laptop for the load and the BB Desktop Software identified one update, 7.1.2753. In the end, I have connected my BB9900 but no software updates found, can anyone tell why this should be the case please?

    Thank you very much.

  • Volume headset from blackBerry Smartphones and clarity on the curve

    Hi all

    I've been a user of Razr for quite a while and am very close to having bought a BlackBerry Curve of Alltel. Before I do, I really have your contribution to this:

    Because I spend a LOT of time making phone calls and work in a noisy environment, the earphone volume and clarity are VERY important to me. I'm not sure if the curve can give me the benefits of a great smartphone AND a great phone in terms of call quality.

    Can you give me your opinion on the earphone volume and clarity compared to the Razr (I currently use V9) and also if you think that because the tip is located a little further from your mouth against a flip style phone that it might cause problems in a noisey environment. Ive had before cell phones, which were weak in terms of call quality and its REALLY frustrating.

    Thanks again for you input. This will help me make the right decision!

    my best,

    Rick

    of all the greatness that is my BB, the listener and the quality leaves much to be desired.  If the volume is too high, cracking bad.  I use it mainly in the car and have bluetooth through the stereo, so in the car, it is not a problem for me.

  • Director of office of blackBerry Smartphones and Curve 8330

    I just installed Desktop Manager 5.0 for my curve. The installation went well, and after it backs up, the curve works correctly. I wonder, however, if the Desktop Manager saved e-mails, MMS and SMS messages in a file on my desktop that could be retrieved and read later if necessary. I heard this answered both ways so far: Yes it did, and no, it's not. No one knows what is the real answer?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!

    Well, two answers could be correct according to what you were doing. If you performed the backup, and then he did. If you have not run the backup, then it does not. If you performed the backup, then a file with an extension of the RPI could be saved to your PC - search your entire hard drive for *.ipd and see what you find. To make a backup, follow these instructions:

    Rather frustrating, I just ran the update software for my Blackberry Curve 8900, which completely has the mark of my phone and erased everything.
