I've had my 8900curve a while now but I am only just connecting it to the computer and to the desktop manager. I want to sync it with my work outlook account and it works fine except it doesn't Auto Sync even though I have the option Enabled any thoughts? I can sync but I have to do it manually every time I connect the phone.
Does turning off the device (as in, going to the Menu icon and turning it off) actually do anything? I read that it doesn't wipe memory or anything (unlike my old, non-BB phone)plus the reload time when I turn it back on seems way too quick for the option to even be an "ON/OFF" function. So what does it do, exactly? Is there still battery drainage? And...is there a way to clean up the memory without doing a battery pull?
My blackberyy 8900 is not turning on.When conected to the charger LED apperas for a while but fone doesmot start.and then a battery icon with a cross appears on the screen.I bought a new battery and then it get on for a week and then again it failed to get boot.
I have a Blackberry Curve 8900 and for the last 3 hours its just turning itself on and off, periodically, i read on a forum comment to remove the SD Card, which ive done, but still every few minutes, it reboots again.
Last night my battery was low. So i put it in the charge before i went to sleep and today morning my alram didnt went off annyways than i looked at the plug and the switch was off. so i am assuming i neva put on charge. Now its been on charge for an hour and it just wont turn on I connect it and the LED lights stays for a minute and then i get this empty jug with blue bolt sign saying its charging.
I have had my curve for over a year now on my Orange contract. I have just been given a new Sim Card by my company. This Sim card is with Vodafone. I got my phone unlocked and the new Sim card is working fine for everything but emails. There isnt even an option to set-up the email accounts!!
I contacted Vodafone and they said that the phone had already been registered with an email server. Which it has beacause i was using it with my other Orange contract. All they could suggest was buying a new handset!! But surely that means if anyone sells their blackberry handset, the new owner wont be able to use email, this cant be right.
I am looking for some help with one of our customer's phones. They have a Blackberry 8900 on T-Mobile and are unable to reply to certain emails. Recently, their email accounts were reset, due to a configuration error on T-Mobile's end. When we set her email accounts back up, her old emails are stored on the device in the messages folder but she is unable to reply to anything prior to the accounts getting messed up. New emails sent to her device are not a problem, those reply just fine and she is able to forward the old messages, just not reply to them.
She is running the latest device software for the 8900, I believe 4.5, we have resent service books and spoken in depth with T-Mobile's technical care department. No one seems to know how we can get this corrected so she can reply to her old emails.
i just became fan of blackberry. i am trying to set up the email i already have in my yahoo account. I am following the guide and i go to setup email settings. However, there is just the option of "I want to use a work email account with a blackberry enterprise server". is there any other way to set up my yahoo account in my device?

I have had my blackberry for the past year and there is a function I use everytime I make a call. I simply press the first letter of the name I am looking for and I can see the list of all my contacts starting with that letter. My problem now is that it only shows a partial list. Even when I do the same while in my contacts, I still cannot see all the contacts. I have to scroll down in order to be able to view every contact. How do I fix that?
I backed up all the data from my Bold and now i can't get all my contact details from my PC. It tells me to turn off the wireless sync on my Curve, although I'm following what it says, the options I'm supposed to see aren't there!
Is it possible to turn off both the new message indicator (red asterix) and the new message count?I would like no message indicators to appear on my blackberry home screen.
What would be the best way to add a large number of contacts to my curve? I need to add about 50-80 contacts and put them in a group as well. Would outlook still be the best way?
I have Yahoo and GMail on my BB. With GMail I can use Google Sync to sync contacts, calendar etc automatically. Also with Google Sync, any replies you do on your BB are automatically updated in you Gmail.Now, the question is, is there something like that for Yahoo? I have searched and don't seem to have had any luck. The closest I can come to is actually looking at my Yahoo account on the browser, but that's not what I want.
I took a 21 hr trip w/ no recharge. Battery completely drained. Since then...
-BB will not charge. -I have BB desk manager, have removed battery and replaced, purchased new battery, purchased new a/c cord. -charging does not work via USB to PC, USB to Auto, USB to A/C. any suggestions? -Unit has never been wet, nor dropped. -Carrier is T-Mobile
I have the 5.0.1 desktop manager, and want to sync with my microsoft calendar from a vista pc. I go to synchronize and choose synchronize organizer data. When I get to select device application, I choose calendar but the only choices I have are ASC Importer/Exporter and Yahoo. Why isn't my microsoft calendar available? and how do I get it to be an option?
Is it the case that with a free hotmail account I can not have 2 way sync with my Blackberry Curve. What if I upgrade to a subscription Hotmail account? Or is it just not possible?
Sync with Outlook is not working. So, updated to version 6.0 and keep getting directed to an options menu and told to "enable wireless syncronization" but there is no such option that I can find anywere. Wasted the day so far...
I've a problem with the settings of the synchronisation of my calender. I am able to sync 2-ways on contacts - in these settings I am able to choose outlook express & than 2 ways synchronisation. I cannot choose this kind of settings for my calender. I'm using: windows 7 with outlook 2010. I've downloaded the latest version of the Black Berry Desktop manager.
I have an 8900 that I wire sync to Outlook 2003 on my PC. Have calendar dates back to 2000. It will sync but alwasy wants to delete things in 2000 and now 2001. So I have to fish them out of the deleted items in Outlook and put them back. Memory seems to be fine on the BB and settings are "forever" and "two way sync."
I had hoped that the latest update would solve the greyed out Contacts synch option. No such luck! I have not been able to synch contacts for the past 3 months. And you wonder why Blackberry stock continues to fall? This will probably be my last Blackberry if something doesn't change soon!
Here is what I would like to do and did in the past with Media player and my HTC Touch Pro 2 - I created an auto playlist that selects songs that have NOT been listened to, a playcount less than one. (it doesn't show up in the desktop manager for media sync) I would like to be able to listen to stuff (causing a play count of one on the phone), and then when I re-connect to the computer have media player remove what has a play count of more than zero. This had some success with my HTC Touch Pro 2. It appears to NOT work on my 8530, it looks like NOTHING gets removed from the phone and there is no "auto" about it. The memory card is full, I listened to songs, re-connected to the computer and it appears that media player sees that the card is full and does nothing.I have had my 8530 1 DAY and have gotten many answers here from previous threads.
Cureve 8520 I am tring to turn the wireless sync option under calendar properties from NO to YES, but the option os grayed out,I went to the calendar> clincked on Menue > Options> selected my calendar> and the wireless Sync in NO and grayed out?
