I am using the BB Bold 9700 with Vodafone. My handset software got corrupted and I took it to the authorized BB service centre and my software have been uploaded but I lost all my data from the phone specially the contacts.
My Blackberry Bold got wet last week - I am trying to dry it out, but in the meantime, I cannot retrieve my contacts as they are on the phone. Is there any way I can retrieve these contacts from my desktop backup?
I switch my SIM Card from one 9000 BlackBerry to a new one. I can't retrieve my contacts no matter what I do. My personal and business options are unchecked. The contact list remains empty.
I have just received a replacement handset from my insurance policy.
I backed my old handset up before I sent it off.
Does anyone know how I can retrieve my contacts and sync all the data from my old one to the new one? I have tried to switch devices but it is asking to connect the old phone which I obviously don't have...
Is there anyway I can retrieve my contacts and memos if I dont have my blackberry? I want to put them in a temporary phone till I get another blackberry.
My phone was charging the other night during a power failure and in the morning my contacts and BB contacts were gone. These contacts aren't lost as it's my gmail contact list - but I can't get them back on my phone. I've clicked all the buttons to sync, but no luck. I can't manually add a contact and see it either. In the contacts options, it says that I have 288 contacts associated with my gmail account, and when I manually add one, it goes up by another number. But - I can't see them anywhere. Also, I removed the email account and set it up again making sure to click the sync box, took out the battery and SIM card and put it back, and still nothing.
My phone was stolen Friday, they turnt it off so I can't track it I went online to the Blackberry protect site and it shows I backed up everything. But it doesn't give me an option to see or copy my contacts!! It just tells me how many contacts I have. If we can't see our info online whats the use of having this app
I had a torch 9800 blackberry which was stolen. Whenever I charged the phone on my PC I used the USB cable and I always did a back- up of the everything on my phone. I replaced my Torch 9800 and normally my contacts would automatically update and appear on my phone but this time I cannot find my contacts at all. I select the USB Sync option but my contacts to not retrieve.. How can I find my lost contacts on my PC?
I lost my BB yesterday. I need to know is there any way I can retrieve my contacts and my messages from BB service. I recall having subscribed to this auto saving. It would be a great help if someone can help me and guide me on this. For obvious reasons I have deactivated my old SIM and got a new one fixed from the service provider. However those jokers VODOFONE staff have no clue how to retrieve my contact details from BB service.
Hopefully you crackberry addicts can help me out! I go to look at a text message and it no longer says from a contact, instead, a phone number. I look at my contacts and they're all gone. No updates were going on, nothing. I'm running os 5.0.0.419. I tried a battery pull and it did nothing.
Had changed to a different mobile for a week and now when I moved back to BB,am not able to see any of the old contacts which I had saved in the phone..
my 8530 curve suffered a cracked screen and i cannot see anything on it, therefore i must acquire another phone. i will not be staying w/blackberry, however. is there anyway i can retrieve my contacts list?
I got my blackberry stolen yesterday, is it possible to retrieve back all the contacts via email, because I want all the contacts to be on my new blackberry.
My IPhone will not charge at all anymore, power is all gone. I cannot retrieve anything, and did not back up at all. I bought May 2011. Apple store says battery charger is corroded. How to get any power so I can transfer all my contacts , etc to new phone. Will not charge at all.
My Tour was damaged by water, and now has no visible screen. I can occasionally get a small red signal on it. Is there anyway to transfer or retrieve my contacts from the phone, or from blackberry. I did not have them properly downloaded on the backup assistant. Can i just activate another blackberry and retrieve them from that, or are they lost forever?
I was looking at the backup and restore funcition on my phone,I accidently hit the restore button but then cancelled the restore. I then went to sent a message and got a error message saying cannot connect please try later. I then turned phone off then on again and all my messages are away and it has stored only a selected few that have got pictures, it has also deleted some of my contacts!Can anyone help me to try retrieve my messages and contacts.
Somehow within the past few days I lost some of my contacts that I call/text all of the time. I tried rebooting taking the battery and sim card out several times and the lost contacts haven't been restored. I went to my GMail account to see if the contacts were in that list and they weren't which was also strange.
My friend lost his blackberry 8900. He canceled his contract with TMobile so the phone was SOS. The phone was insured but since the contract was canceled they won't honor it. Is there anyway he can retrieve his contacts in the Desktop Manager? He backed it up all of the time Is the contacts in a file on the computer that he can read? thanks in advance. I looked in the loader back up IPD files and all I see is a lot of jibberish. But no contacts.
my daughter and I have just got our new iPhones but I can´t create and Apple ID för her so she can´t use the ICloud service. So I tried using the one I created for myself resulting in that all my contacts apeared in her phone. What should we do?
Apple how about letting parents confirm the Apple ID for their kid but it should be created with the kids name and birthday how difficult can it be? am I the first mum who bought and Iphone for my kid?
And by the way how do we get access to all the old contacts stored on the SIM card from our preIPhone time? I thought that everything just work with Apple but I am beginning to think that I should have choosen and Android... I mean changing brand of phone doesn´t exactly mean that you want to cut contact with all your old friends..
