I have bought a new BB Curve 8520. On my desktop I have Windows 7, with Microsoft Outlook 2007. My e-mail is a Windows Live account through Office Live, which I believe is a web-based e-mail account. This means, in order for me to get e-mail in Outlook, I have to use the Microsoft OutlooIk Connector. When I go to sync using Desktop Manager, I first try and install ntellisync through the Wizard and I get a “successfully installed message, but when I click “OK” the error: "Folder is no longer part of system data source or the folder could not be found” appears and I am never able to sync successfully, either through the USB or wirelessly. I have uninstalled and re-installed the Desktop Manager many times. However, I am receiving the e-mails through to my BB. But if I'm unable to sync Calendar, Tasks or Contacts etc. with my Desktop, the BB is not a lot of help or benefit to me.
I work for a charity & we want to see if we can move our names & mobile No.s from Access Database &/or Excel Workbook onto the Blackberry Curve 8900 so as to text all of the contacts at once.
I damaged my old phone. It was replaced today.Everything was going well other than the email.I go to set up, select e mail accounts. I get the message saying a new device has been detected. The app show my seven accounts. I select Move Email Accounts and for each one I am asked to enter the password which I do. Each time the app says the password is validate. After entering all seven everything seems toi be OK. No error message. However it just hasn't worked. The e mail is not showing. When I return to setup I am once again asked to go through the same process and get the initial message saying I have a new device.This presently makes the whole phone a waste of time.I have tried entering the e mails as new ones, but this is rejected as they are already on the machine. What can I do about this?
I have a Blackblerry Curve 8520.I downloaded some apps that linked with my contacts..Now, yesterday i met someone.. and when i tried to save her nummer via messages > add to contacts.Nothin happend.. i tried to call her, press greenphone, blackberry button, add to contacts and it just freez.I hold the bb button for a time so i can switch trough apps, at a time it gives me an error.somthing with 'Rim_App_contacts' error determinated. i think i know what this means but, i don't want to lose all my contacts so.
I recently received a message telling me that an update was available for App World. I downloaded the update, installed it and rebooted. Now I am unable to download apps. When I hit the download button it takes me to the sign in for BlackBerry ID, then to terms and conditions and then to my ID settings! The only way I can get off this screen is to press Discard, which takes me back to where I started! I just keep going round in circles.
how do i back up my contacts and numbers on a blackberry curve 8520 as my phone keeps freezing and my network has sent me a link to update the software
I can not add,edit my contacts, ive tried un installing fb and twitter think they wee my last updated now thats causing trouble i keepo having to restart the device
Has an update been made available to os5.0.0.681 to allow us to add to contacts from unknown sms senders?Tired of doing it the long way around when I have at least 30 business enquiries hitting my phone all day.
I do not have a smart phone and would like to know how to save all my contacts on my PC in case I loose my phone. Additionally how do you retreive these saved contacts back from a PC to another phone.I have a Blackberry 8520
I tried updating from the blackberry website. When the Application Loader launches, it only provides me with the option of maintaining my OS and downgrading my OS to the older 4.6.1 version. I have previously used the exact same steps on another Curve 8520 and I had successfully upgraded the OS. After the upgrade was successful on the first phone, only did I try upgrading the second phone. Is there anything I did wrongly the second time around?
I have Blackberry 8520. earlier I was using Nokia E 90.I transferred my contacts from Nokia to CSV file and got them coverted to .ipd file using Amber vCard onverter. I restored the .ipd file into my Black berry using Desktop Manager.The software shows 784 contacts and that is same as it was in my E 90.
However when I select contacts in my Blackberry I dont see them. However Desktop manager shows 784 contacts.Please tell how do I see these contacts in my Black berry.
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 Blackberry Curve 8520 indicated that I must upgrade my bbm to a newer version before I could continue using it. I upgraded my bbm, but now all my contacts are gone! How can I get them back? I'm on Vodacom in South Africa
I have a Curve 8520, and have recently developed a problem. When I open contacts to search for an address it freezes. I can escape by hitting menu and switching application to the home page again. Eventually I get an error message telling me I have an "uncaught exception" it tells me that the app is not responding and the process has been terminated.When it first happened I called Orange my provider and they sent me a new handset, I retained the battery and reloaded and then funnily enough new phone started same issue. It is using software v 5.0 so I followed advice on blackberry and tried to reload software but that has not worked?
My 8520 has done this since it was new (now 1.5 yrs old), and I'm sick and tired of it. When I get a call or text from someone on my contact list, about half the time it only shows the Number but not the Contact Name. This is very frustrating b/c I obviously don't have all my Contact numbers memorized, and so don't know who is sending me a text or phone call (this is especially annoying while texting!!!)I've talked with my service provider multiple times and they have tried to help, but say it's really an RIM issue and needs to be address by them.
I have a curve 8520 which was working fine up until last night.the screen freezes on re-boot at the 'e'. i have tried to start in safe mode and ive tried to connect to my pc.nothing is working. ive taken the media card out.
