View 4 RepliesI currently have an Apple Keyboard and Magic Mouse hooked up to my Playbook. They work very well, the implementation is incredible. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to scroll with the the mouse. It really limits the PB since if I hook it up to my television I cannot scroll unless I have the PB near me. Has anyone gotten this to work or is this something we are hoping to get in a future update? Aslo, is there a way to select text and bring up the copy/paste menu without having to use the touch screen? I can select text by holding shift / arrow keys on the keyboard but am unable to perform any actions without having to use the touchscreen.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe problems I've been having are intermittent disconnection of the mouse using a Logitech v470. When I used the Apple Magic Mouse I never had an issue but you weren't able to scroll in the browser using the touch feature. Some scrolling standardization among all the apps and OS would be nice. Some parts you have to click and drag to scroll (scrolling bookmarks in the browser, App World and in the OS launcher) while other parts like documents or the browser you can use the scroll wheel perfectly. Scrolling on pages that open up windows or use pains is also not possible using the mouse. For example scrolling in gmail for tablets and scrolling if you open up a picture using facebook.com. Gesturing using the the right mouse button is fantastic but I'd like to be able to hold either the right or left buttons and bring up the contextual menus. Currently this is only accomplished by having to touch the device which is ok as long as the device is within reach but hook it up to your TV and you're sol. Copying and pasting by selecting text with the keyboard (crtl+a) works sometimes and other times you're just better off using your finger to bring up the select widgets and copy/paste that way. I really like how you're able to tab text boxes using the tab key.
Overall I'm very happy but these few annoyances really hold the device back from being used on the couch with a TV or being used anywhere out of arms reach for that matter. Being able to scroll with inertia while holding the right mouse button would be really nice. Anything you can do with your finger should be able to be accomplished mimicking those motions while holding or clicking the right mouse. I hope in the next update or sometime soon these issues are addressed.
I was in a game and my muse button stopped working, I now have to use the enter button, the mouse still can scroll but if I want to select anything from my menu I have to use the enter button, I also can not get back into the game it is stuck on Play or Exit and there the enter button is not working nor the mouse button I can scroll between Play or Exit but nothing else happens

Is my BOLD9780 trackable from BlackBerry Protect when out of cellular range?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently had my Bold 9900 stolen/lost, although I have now purchased a replacement 9900 I want to try and track down my old one as it is not a cheap device. I still have all of the packaging of my first phone so therefore the IMEI / PIN etc. I have reported this to my provider (China Mobile) and I have a new account setup on my new device.I have sent a bbm request to my old phone hoping to get some contact but my joy, I am asking friends who have my old PIN as a bbm contact to try the new 'owner' as well. Is there any way I can find the mobile number of whoever is using my old phone so I can ring them? (I understand it may have been sold on but has only been 3 days since it was stolen/lost) or tracking the device? (I did not have any tracking software on the device at the time it was stolen).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Blackberry Bold 9900 on AT&T and it for some strange reason starts to scroll on its own. It makes it very difficult to select anything when it does this. I did a battery pull several times and it still occurs.
View 1 Replies View Relatedrecently my lock button at the top hasn't be working properly, it will lock, but then won't unlock until he 10th push. Also the trackpad sometimes does not scroll up, only left and right. Also some of my letter/number keys (all the ones under the trackpad) haven't been working the first time I press them! Also the camera button isn't working sometimes, it clicks to take, but doesn't do the first mini click to focus. And lastly my ALT button hasn't been working sometimes. I've done reboots and it doesn't help. The wierd thing is, all the problems are intermittent.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy Bold 9780 started having glitches a couple of months ago. The P & del buttons started doin weird stuff then one night the phone switched itself off. I had to do the taking the battery out thing to get it on but it continued to switch off. I searched the net and found a solution. I took the battery out for a while then gave it a long 24hr charge. This got the phone working again. I still had a few problems with the p but nothing to serious. Over the last week the problem with the p started to happen again and 2 nights ago the phone switched itself off again. I did exactly what I had done before and it worked but once the phone is on I cannot scroll the trackpad on the main screen which means i cant do anything. if i push a few buttons i can get onto the search screen and get onto the menu where the scroll works but if i get into certain apps like messenger it doesnt scroll again. it also has been switching itself on and off again. when it first started i could still connect it to the desktop software, now i cant even do that.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy trackpad does not scroll but it works when pressed. It has been like this for about 4weeks.I have not dropped it or kept it near water.its just 2monthes old and I baby it so much.there is a tiny red light(I think its the infra-red)showing inside the trackpad so I think its not totally spoilt.since this problem started my phone takes too much time(about 10mins)to come up anytime I take out the battery.and most times the phone is slow in operating. It has worked twice during the 4weeks interval.the first time my battery was flat and I removed it from my phone then when I wanted to charge it came up at a normal time(1min)and was scrolling but stopped scrolling again in about 2mins while I was using it. The other time was wen my camera was not snapping and was giving me error message I removed the battery and put it back and it came up quickly and trackpad was scrolling. I noticed it was scrollin but I did not scroll it much after about 12mins I decided to check and it was still scrolling but when I continued to use it,it just stopped in about 1min.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have blackberry bold 9000 for 10 months, and it went well. Today, it froze and won't turn on. I tried to remove and re-place the battery, it didn't work, the red LED light didn't blink at all. I replace it with the fully charged battery, and it still won't turn on. I tried to plug it with wall charger, and it still blank, as if it dead. what should I do?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Blackberry Bold 9930 with Verizon. About a month ago, I started experiencing this issue. When I receive texts, and there are multiple texts from the same number, the thext screen freezes and no matter what I do, I can not scroll UP to see the previous messages. Touch screen or the touch pad does not work. You can visibly see the time stamps changing to previous messages but the messages do not scroll at all. You can still exit text messages and all other scroll works fine. I have had to hard reboot to get rid of the issue. Then it returns after a week or so later. I have updated the software via VZ when they sent an operating systems update.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been having trouble with my trackpad since i downloaded os 6. The trackpad freezes on one icon or refuses to scroll. I end up having to reset my phone multiple times a day. I read online that if i downgrade back to os 5 the issue goes away. How do i downgrade using the blackberry desktop software? is there a better fix?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWoke up this morning - and it's on the loading screen (that you see after a battery pull) with the progress bar three quarters complete. It's not progressing. Tried removing the battery. Any ideas?
Has been working perfectly for the last 2 months. Haven't changed anything.
Hey guys. It seems like sometimes my phone lags or freezes for a little bit when I delete a message. It definitely does it when I delete a SMS that isn't that short. Anyone else having issues with that and any resolutions?
View 4 Replies View RelatedA few days ago I switched to another phone for a few days and I left my Bold with its battery removed for a day or two.When I restarted my Bold 9700, I've been unable to see or act on the home screen or apps screen. However, the phone is still working (push on the green button and the phone screen pops up), same with the long press on blackberry key.
I did search to do a reset of my handset but I can't find a way to do it knowing that I can't access the menus.
I currently have an SMS app called Crunchsms. Anyway, got a notification today that an upgrade was available (v2.8 > v2.9). Upgraded and it asked me to reboot, as per normal. Handset rebooted, put in my pin, and the home screen is frozen. Yet if I hold in the blackberry menu key, I can choose and select other destinations (i.e. WnW, Messages, Maps, etc).I can call my handset from another phone with no problems and can answer the calls ok.
I have been getting the little arrows in the top right corner of the phone, which leads me to believe the handset was downloading something, but its been like this for about 20 minutes now. Have rebooted again twice and have taken the battery out and replaced it, same end result.
My office mate from US has a 9780 with AT&T arrived in Singapore. He managed to get connected to the data and voice without problem, but his phone freezes very often. He needs to remove the battery to do a hard restart, after that it will be working fine and freeze again. He needs to keep doing hard reset.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI attemepted a OTA software update on my 9930. Yeah yeah yeah i know i'm a moron and shouldve done a wired update. Problem is the update is froze on 14% (has been for over 6 hours). Tried battery pulls, plugging it into my laptop, looked all over the place online. I'm not able to cancel the update. I've got a back up from a few months ago on my computer so i'm not even worried about wiping out the phone but i cant even figure out how to do that!

We are at the third unit since September of 2011. They like to freeze. Rebooting will work after two or three tries.Told to reload the OS 7.1 but instructions sent were for OS 6.0 series. That after 45 minutes on the phone.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I am trying to update my bold through blackberry desktop manager and it has been stuck on the instal phase model 656 of 888. It also says that I can not unplug it mid instal or my phone will become unusable. I am truly stuck here and do not know what to do. I need to unplug my phone. I am fine operating it on the old software but I am just scared that if i unplug it my phone will be fried.
