I just got this Blackberry Bold 9650 on Sprint with OS 6 and I'm not sure if it's the phone or what, but I've noticed that the notifications don't sync correctly. When I check notifications about e-mails and Facebook on my phone, the computer recognizes that it was checked. However, if I check e-mails and Facebook notifications from my computer, my BB won't recognize that they were already checked and the notifications won't go away until I re-check all e-mails and notifications.
I synced up my Facebook contacts only to find that I cannot call any of them. Three digits are added before the number when you make a call ("001" the international dialing code for the U.S.) and because of this, the call does not go through. A similar problem occurs when you try to text message these contacts as well.
I have 10 albums that I sync to my iPhone. I have a specific photo that I have saved as "0" so that it's first when I sync, creating a cool album cover. However, since the recent iTunes update, when I sync photos to my iPhone, it sync them out of order and sometimes creates duplicates. Occasionally, some photos are in the wrong albums.
I unchecked all albums, synced, then resynced with the albums checked, hoping that putting them back on fresh would help, but it doesn't. Incidentally, if I sync 1 album only, they sync in the correct order with no duplicates.
Just bought the V10, setup everything that I had on my Note 3, including my Gmail account. Now Gmail does not notify immediately when an email arrives. I've gone into the Google account settings, and do not see anywhere where I can set the frequency of syncs. How to get it to instantly notify me of incoming emails?
I recently got a new Macbook and I synced it to my iCloud and iMessage accounts with both my apple ID and my phone number. I got the notification that it was signed into on my Mac and I just confirmed it. I have been able to receive messages on both my Mac and my iPhone, but now I am not receiving any kind of notification on my phone that any messages are being received. I tried logging out of iMessage on my computer and still no luck. How I can fix this so that I can receive message notifications on my iPhone again?
I got an early release on the Fitbit Surge. Its awesome so far except my smartphone, a Motorola Droid Turbo, will not currently sync notifications for text and phone calls. I've emailed them asking about the problem. They say it is because "the Fitbit app is not currently supported by the Motorola Droid Turbo." The smart phone compatible list on their website does not show my phone, however the app works just fine and even syncs everything else the surge has to offer. Fitbit says they are working closely with smart phone manufactures to work out the Bluetooth 4.0 problems. The only instance that the I have any trouble is when I check the text and call notifications box in the Fitbit app for my surge.
I am using Microsoft Exchange with Active Sync through my email provider, Intermedia. The sync has been erratic at best. I have put all of the email settings to Auto; however, most of the time it only syncs when I push the email icon. I've tried calling Samsung and AT&T - even had a remote session with AT&T. They could find nothing set up improperly. I've deleted and re-installed the email app a few times. I got it to work over the weekend, but yesterday, it stopped syncing again. I would even delete specific emails from the phone and a few minutes later, they would show up as unread.
I've called my email provider and went through troubleshooting with them, to no avail. Everything was setup properly. I've wiped the system cache a few times. I just tried the following: deleted the exchange email setup from the phone (again for the 3rd time); went into application manager and cleared the data from every "email" app that was in there (email - there were two, email synch, email storage, etc). Then I shut down the phone and did another wipe of the system cache. Then I installed the email app again.
Now it seems to be working. I'm just afraid that, after a period of time, it will stop working. My 14 day period ends on Thursday. I'm thinking about exchanging this phone for another S6. However, what if it happens on that phone. I've asked AT&T and Samsung if they have any information in their database regarding this issue and they both said no. I even tried to use the Microsoft Outlook app. But it doesn't appear to be able to work with Active Sync (I can't put my email server parameters in there).
Make & Model - Bold 9700 Carrier - AT&T BES 4.0 Server
Symptoms: Open Attachment, retrieving attachment starts, I have noticed with a 30k pdf attachment will download and show, not legible though. Very slow.
With a 600k attachment retrieving freezes, have to keep clicking more until download is 100%. Attachment still not displaying correctly, shows just white screen.
My pad will not function. It keeps selecting without my option to select restricting me from doing anything. Device stuck at network connections. Phone keeps turning on/off for mobile connection. Trouble began with simply dialing at random and various other non-selected choices. I feel that the touch pad may be the fault;
On my 9700 i found the option. So i turned them on and it seems to work fine via MMS to phones that are on my same network (ATT) but the other phones i sent it to only said D for Delivered. And i know its read because i got responses. Ideas? Second, there is a delivery option for SMS but that one doesnt seem to work at all.
I have a seidio extended battery for my phone and had the seidio doc which is horrible and I recommend to no one. It's built cheap and can break very easy. The metal charging prongs on the seidio doc just broke so I switched over to my normal blackberry bold doc.The problem is when I charge my phone I get a ton of different things that happen. I have my phone set up to enter bedtime mode and turn my profile to silent during certain hours when the phone is plugged in to charge. During these times the phone will always enter bedtime mode but three different things happen:
1. Phone dims and displays a clock
2. Screen light stays on and keyboard is illuminated
3. Phone goes dark - All lights turn off
I just want the phone to go dark and charge and put my profile to silent during the times I have set up. I like the phone dimming but it's still a little too bright for me at night. Can anyone help or suggest what I can do?
I just received the Bold 9650 with 6 OS on it a few weeks ago. Although I am receiving text emails alright, the HTML emails aren't displaying correctly. It is just a bunch of jibberish displaying on the screen. After searching online for a solution, everyone just keeps saying to enable HTML under the messages option... but I'm not even finding the messages option choice? Under the Options menu, I have:
Sounds and Ring Tones Networks and Connections Display Typing and Input Device Call Management Security Accessibility Third Party Applications
how to get my HTML messages to display? I've tried taking the battery out and I've also tried "Get Images" and that doesn't do anything at all.
I am currently using a BB Bold 9900 as well as a Mac running OSX 10.7 (Lion)For the last 6 months and up until yesterday, i had a huge issue where when syncing my contacts between phone and BB Desktop manager, hundreds of new contacts on my computer were not in my phone and vise-versa.I assumed the phone was broken or a software problem that i was unable to fix, so i gave it to my other half and bought a new one.I need all my contacts constantly for my job. It's so frustrating entering details at home, syncing and then having the few numbers / email addresses not there when you need them on the go a few days later...
I've been searching for quite some time now, but still can't seem to find a good solution for my problem. Currently i'm using my Blackberry calendar to keep me updated about my appointments. However, I would like to access this calendar on my Mac aswell, is there any way of doing this properly? I've tried the Ical --> Google Calendar --> Blackberry Calendar way, but it doesn't seem to work. If possible I would like to have the possiblity to sync this agenda from Blackberry to Mac and vice versa. Ow, by the way, I do not necessarily need the Blackberry calendar.
Just realized the other day you can make a Group in the BBM's and send one message to multiple people. So, I was trying it out. I sent a request to 2 people, to join. One accepted no problem.. For the second person, their request to join didn't seem to go through, so I sent it multiple times. But they HAD joined & then deleted, as test was over.
By the time we were done testing, got it all sorted out. Deleted the Group etc... I guess because for 1 of the people I send the request multiple times thinking it wasn't going through I now have "Pending" sitting at the bottom of the BBM area, & can't get rid of the Pending notification (pending waiting for them to join). They joined once. Deleted. & they no longer have it showing at their end, to join.
When I plug my phone in to the usb cable something comes up about insufficent power and making sure the correct drivers are installed. I don't wanna charge it tho I just wanna sync it and put some music on. Any ideas or trouble shooting. I tried searching on my comp but nothing similar really came up then my POS computer crashed. Thanks in adavance.
We activated Microsoft 365 Enterprise activation, wiped our handheld and all services synch EXCEPT contacts. All contacts that were In Active Directory as well as contacts that were on the users' accounts migrated but when we add a new contact through Outlook it does not sync with the Blackberry and if we enter a contact on the handheld it does NOT sync back to the web mail client or Outlook. Calendar functions are syncing fine both from Outlook to he handheld and from the handheld back to Outlook.
When I try to sync my Blackberry's address book with my gmail contacts and calendar, it starts the synchronization service, the calendar synchronizes, the address book then says initializing, but hangs at 55% synchronization. I recently wiped the Blackberry clean and was setting up the email and synchronization options from scratch.
Installed the desktop SW and synced my organizer from my phone to outlook. All is good. Made changes to address of my outlook and tried to synch it with my phone. That is when after all the setting were checked and it looked like it is doing it. I get an error message "during synchronization some of the records were invalid. The following 2 records were skipped: address book device - 0, Microsoft outlook - 2" and the changes I made were not synced.
I have recently updated my blackberry software to version 6.0 Bundle 2949 and also my desktop software to 7.0.043(Bundle 44). The problem is that i cannot sync my phone with my PC anymore.It gets stuck on preparing sync preview.Would even be willing to revert to old versions of software and desktop.
I am new to Blackberry and this site which is rather overwhelming! I have what is probably a simple question but I can't figure it out. I have a Blackberry Bold 9780 with Software version 6.0.2.44. I sync with Outlook (Office Professional 2010). The Blackberry sync mode seems to delete calender entries on Outlook after about a month. I like to retain the entries but I cannot find an option on the sync set-up that stops this.
When I sync my bb 9000 with outlook on my laptop, it automatically selects old appointments to be deleted. I want to retain my old appointments (they come in handy for my billing fees). If I select reject it does not sync updated details. How can I resolve this? Basically I do not want to delete any old appointments. I have selected the accept button and it wiped out all my old appointments.
my device isn't allowing me to turn off the wireless sync feature for my address/contact list and I think it is because I have added a 2nd email address to the device
My BB calendar sync over wireless stopped working, and I can't figure out how to get it back.I use BES and have V6 of the Desktop software installed with Outlook 2007 on my Windows XP laptop.When I now connect to the Desktop software, and go under "Organizer", I have 3 of 4 apps that say "syncing wirelessly" (MemoPad, Address Book, Tasks) but Calendar is ticked and shows "Microsoft Outlook". I have tried unchecking the box, but cannot figure out how to get it back to syncing wirelessly. an't find a setting on the BB to change it either.I can only sync it via Desktop software (which I now do at least daily, a big pain ...)All other apps are syncing wirelessly just fine: mail, contacts, etc.
When I access my gmail online I will read/delete emails but they are not then deleting (or showing as read) in the messages on my blackberry (Bold 9900). Wondering how I can set it up that they work together?
I keep getting all facebook notifications on my blackberry emails however not on my pc. How do I stop this. This only started when I did an upgrade last week to 6.0 I hate this version and would love to go back to the previous version as it had mor options and it was a lot more user friendly.
1) I have trouble disabling notifications Such as Facebook and email and twitter. I wanted my device to show new messages only when I open it, not constantly pushing it to me! Anyone knows how to do that? 2)When I tried to open My World from App World, it took soo long to initialize it.
I have 2 email accounts on my Blackberry. I would like to recieve notifications from one, but not the other.i.e. Have one with the usual "1 new message" icon, but would like the other to either be automatically read or just not be notified of their presence, even if unread.
