BB Curve 8520/8530 :: Setup Normal Email Account Using Hotmail Account
Apr 19, 2010
Got my BB curve 8025 at the weekend and have encounted afew things i didnt understand serched the net and found this site which as been a god send! I'm trying to set up email but atm its only giving me the option for setting up work email account with a BB enterprise server - I just want to set up a normal email account using my normal hotmail account but i cant get any further along as it asks for my enterprise activation password - which i obviously dont have?
Also - a few friend have gien me their pin so i can add them on BBM, i type the pin and it says contact pending but the person/s im trying to add get no notification that i'm trying to add them - we try it the other way with me giving them my pin and get the same result WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?
I cant seem to set up my emails on the phone it wants me to activate my enterprise account, I dont know what this is, all I want to do is set up my hotmail account with the phone but there is not an option to do this.
I recently got an Xperia X10 however I'm having trouble setting up my hotmail account on the Email App, it always says 'Setup could not finish, unable to open connection to server'. I've tried setting it up both as a POP3 account and an IMAP (as I'm not sure which to use) but still no luck.
I bought a Curve 8520 today, and I want to set it up to access my existing AOL email account. Is this possible? How do I do it? and why do I keep being asked for an Enterprise Server password/code - what is it and where do I find it. Also, while we're getting all techy, my son has a curve and he has fb, twitter yahoo etc on his download icon, but I don't.
I got my first BB (8520) two weeks ago, and I still have not managed to get the email and MMS setup. If I go to messages, there is only SMS and email, no MMS options.. And when I try to set the email there is only the Enterprise option, I wanna set it up with my gmail.
I have just bought my 8900 and can`t setup a normal new e-mal account because itoffers me only one option to use the BB enterprise service. Why am I missing the e-mail icon in the settings folder? I have this BB for 7 days and I hate it someone.O and also I tryed to download the app world and it says that my phone is not suported.... Now I feel very sorry for seling my Iphone 3GS.
I live in Panama, and I use Telefonica services.Currently I have two accounts already set up on my phone, one is hotmail and the other of my university where I live.I want to add a new email account at Setup-Email Settings and it send me to the page = if you want to access your email settings or you changed your device log in. how can I add a new email account?
I am unable to receive any picture messages?? I am also unable to set up a personal email account through blackberry its only giving me the option of a works email??
I've just got a Blackberry Curve 8520. I'm trying to link my email account to the phone but it won't let me. I've gone into email settings and put in my hotmail.co.uk address and my password but I just keep getting a message saying Invalid email address or password. I know both are correct as I am able to use the account on a computer. It just won't let me use it on the phone.
I never worked but my enterprise has been activated. I checked the Advanced options and the service book if there is an enterprise activation phrase but there's none. How do I get rid of it so that I can use my normal e-mail?
I bought my first BlackBerry (Curve 3G 9300) on Friday and tried to setup a personal email account on the phone via the setup wizard earlier today.The phone said that an update to 6.11...... was needed in order to do this. I let it update, now the phone is just hanging after starting up. If I do a start up after removing the battery it comes up with a black screen with the BlackBerry logo and a progress bar below it. The progress bar moves along until the end, this takes around a minute. It then shows something like a little clock over the logo for about a second. Once this disappears the phone says with the logo and the completed progress bar - and just hangs there.
I have an ATT 8520 Curve unlocked to work with a tmobile sim card and have a few questions...Now that's unlocked I cant setup an external email account (hotmail, gmail, etc...) that icon is missing from the setup section. how can I get that feature? can I also use the bbm feature? I added a friend (and vice-versa) but it just stays as pending. is it possible to bbm? for the above 2 do i need to get the bb data plan so they can work? I've read elsewhere that the best way to get the features would be to load the tmobile handheld software. I went to tmobiles site, I enter my ph# - select the 8520 - click on handheld and it takes me to their 'shop for phones' page. I guess they now by the number that i dont currently have a bb. So I tried a friends ph# from tmobile who has a bb and it still took me to the 'shop for phones' page. So I Am hoping it's just a link glitch going on right now. I did download from this forum the 5.0 OS "8520wifiM_PBr5.0.0_rel860_PL5.2.0.47_A5.0.0.509_W ind_Hellas.exe" which obviously is not tmobile. What would loading this different OS allow me to do? Or what features will I have available? and I have lowercase 'edge'.
Im having problem setting up my Hotmail account, it used to work fine until few days ago. It says ive entered an incorrect username or password which i can sign in fine with them details if i use laptop or safari through the phone.
I have a Curve 8330 on the Sprint network. About a day and a half ago I stopped receiving my emails on my phone. I can't send email either. SMS, MMS, Blackberry messenger all work fine. My email account works fine if I log in through the browser. My wife has the same phone and also has a hotmail email account and hasn't had any problems.Any ideas on how to fix this?
the title says it all, iv noticed the hotmail icon is a real pain when it replaces my theme custom icon, it looks really out of place how can i get the default email folder icon back?
Anyone else having Yahoo sync issues on their device? It seems like the last week when I delete messages from my Yahoo account that change does not sync with my 8530. However messages send and receive on the device.
I am a consultant and have a client that has a BB Curve. He has been using a certain provider inet for his email. He has now changed to a different provider (for technical reasons). I have tried to setup his new email account for the new provider - I also use a BB curves and have performed this operation for over 50 of my clients. However in this scenario, the Curve keeps asking for his account id and password. We have tried to enter it and it says that the Username cannot be blank. If we exit and re-enter the setup tool, and then enter the same info again, it says that the username and/or password is incorrect. His credentials have never - ever changed.
We cannot get his password (or acct info) sent to him by BB (RIM), because he no longer has the email address of record. Of course I tried entering a different email address to send it to, but of course it doesn't get to his phone as there is no eamil address setup (except his old one). The provider here in town (TELUS) has been quite useless in helping and have been quite specific that we need to talk to RIM, well of course this seems to be the only avenue available.Can someone direct us to the appropriate area or resource in order to proceed with setting up his new email account.

My boss would like to forward his work emails to his personal email account.Is this something he can do on his own?Can someone provide setup instructions?
I access my emails from work thru a VPN. I purchased a Curve 8520 cause I understood I could receive my emails on my smartphone. I set up my personal emails, which are working fine. But, I can't figure out how to set up my VPN settings for an email account on the 8520. Co-workers who have other smartphones(not Berries) and connect.
all the blackberry stuff works but I cant find the email setting, it shows me a message that says that I need a code activation from blackberry enterprise. I need the email on my phone!
It's possible to use a 3rd party email app on my 9300. The problem I have found is that the 3rd party app wants the incoming mail server and the outgoing mail server. I don't have that information, and when I asked vodafone, they told me tocontact Blackberry (and very kindly sent me a contact number for Blackberry, which didn't work).Is it not possible in the UK to use third party email apps?
I'm trying to setup my email account on the computer I Select my wireless service provider whitch is o2(uk) limited and get the welcome to blackberry log in page my device is turned on and is connected to the wireless network. I then click "Create New Account" I then agree and the setup page comes up and I enter my pin and the IMEI and then I get your account is not accessible via HTML browse?
Ive just got my new BB Curve 3g but cant setup an email account. It just keeps asking for me to setup an enterprise account?? But i just want to use my existing hotmail account.Also I registered for the Blackerry bolt on, but dont know if its working yet because im unable to use the BBM or facebook app, but I can use the browser to access the web when im on WIFI.
I just updated the software on my blackberry last Saturday (March 3), and I haven't received any emails since. I have went to Setup> Email Accounts and entered in my password to verify my account and it brings me to a screen that says "Sorry, unable to continue your session. Please log in again." Once I press OK it takes me back to the Setup main screen.
My colleague had a blackberry curve 8900 and this was then passed to me as he left the company. My sim works in the phone fine but I am unable to set up my email as it says there is one already set up. Im no longer in contact with my colleague and not sure what to do. Is there any way of renewing this? When I go to email setup it doesnt have the option of create new email.
When I purchased my Curve 3g about a year ago, I setup my email account like normal and it worked fine over this past year. Recently I had to change my email password on the computer, and it caused my blackberry to no longer be able to send or receive my emails. So I went back into setup and went to the email set up so that I could change my password on my phone, but when I click the "Email Accounts" button in set up, it doesn't go anywhere. All of the other setup icons work except the email one.
