Jan 16, 2010
i have a blackberry bold now the screen has been broken i can call people etc but cant see any thing my problem is i need to see my contacts some how is there a way that i can do this on the computer i have installed the blackberry sofware and have backed up the files etc but i cant open them to veiw the contacts etc.
I checked my settings on my desktop manager and opened my ipd file-nothing for my contacts or calendar. What did I do wrong? Is there any chance on earth I get any contacts back?Here are my settings:
Back up all application data
Back up on board device memory
When I did the automatic backup it was saved to my docs.I don't have outlook or anything.
I am adding 150 Blackberry users that do not have a desktop computers. They will only send a receive email with their Blackberry 8520 phones. Since I cannot import contact with Outlook Web Access, how can I import contacts with Blackberry Web Desktop Manager? I need to add 300 company contacts to each phone.
I have rented bought a Sony z3 compact and have recorded several videos on it which will only play back the audio. As the memory is quite small I have saved them all directly to my SD card. Could it be something to do with this? I tried opening the videos on my computer but it says that the file is not supported. I would like to be able to see these videos
Is there a desktop app that allows you to utilize BBM from your computer? Sometimes when the phone is charging or when I'm in the office, it is easier to use the computer.
I have been unable to synch my BlackberryTour with Outlook 2010. We run XP Pro as an operating system on the computer in question. Various versions of the Blackberry Desktop software haven't helped. Either they will open the BB Desktop Software (Version 5.0) but won't synch to Outlook 2010, or the BB software loads apparently successfully, but won't open on the computer (Version 7.1). My husband says he tried all the BB desktop versions in between unsuccessfully.
I installed the Blackberry desk top software on one computrer and have no problem syncing and updating, but when I installed the software on another computer it does not detect the connected Blackberry. USB is OK because Blackberry charges. What am I missing?
I am so frustrated. My Computer sees my phones as a usb but the Blackberry desktop manager can not see it. I keep getting this message; unable to install device driver.
When I got my 9800 I used DM to do the device switch from my 9000. Now all I have in my Contacts are emails addresses. No phone numbers, none!, some contacts without emails addresses are just missing, and no home addresses. I thought all that info was on my sim card? I did do a back-up, but it says the file is an IPD and it won't open.
I have several pictures that I want to upload to my computer from my blackberry curve 8210. I already dowload blackberry desktop manager v5.0.1 and when I clicked media..this comes up- [IMG] and then when i clicked install this pop out when i clicked launch..this pop out... Note that I do have the cable thingy that plug to the computer and it is plug to the phone.
a client of mine (bold 9700 with latest device software) has complained on more than one occasion about receiving missed call notifications when connected via usb to her computer (while desktop software is running - also latest version). phone does not ring, the missed call notification just appears. she says this happens WELL after the synchronization process finishes so it's not like the call came in while in the process of sync'ing.
I am unable to download the blackberry desktop software to my home computer. I have Windows XP and I received an error message when trying to download the software. I cannot back up my blackberry without this software. Any help would be great as I need to reset my blackberry because I am unable to download any apps or receive my personal e-mails to my phone or use BBM and resetting the phone to its factory settings is the only solution I have been given.
I have set a password on my 8250 which locks and unlocks it. However when I connect to my computer Blackberry desktop asks me to input a password. When I input the password set for the 8250 it will not allow connection to desktop. I have never set a password in 'Desktop' and have even tried uninstalling and then reinstalling it but each time I attempt to connect it rejects the link. Any ideas as to where I can get hold of guidance on how to get past this problem as it is preventing me from using the Blackberry fully?
How to delete photos from my iPhone 5 previously synced from my desktop but now have been deleted from my computer? I have an album on my phone named Desktop and can't delete photos from this album on my phone and they don't show up in iTunes now.
my wifes 8530 we just did the BB App World upgrade. Now we can't see or find the icon to open and use it. After being on the phone with Verizon for a while they contacted BB and this is what I was told to do.
-Download BB desktop manager on my computer -Backup all data from the phone -Do a hard reset which will delete all data from the phone -Reinstall all data from desktop manager back to phone and then the icon should appear
I've just recently downloaded the desktop software to my computer and am having some slight troubles. Everytime I put the device password in the computer, it rejects it and prompts me to try again and so on and so fourth.
Contacts on my BB Bold 9780 are messed up, while the ones on my desktop are still good. Can I "force" a sync to use the desktop Contacts to overwrite the handheld Contacts?
After recently updating the Desktop Manager to 5.0.1, the Redirector no longer operates. When opening it, i get the error message."Desktop Redirector has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry..." I've unistalled Destop Manager, reverted back to 5.0.0 and I still have the same issue. This was and is currently setup with my Outlook 2003 (SP3) exchange server to forward my work emails, and it worked up until I updated to 5.0.1 last week.
My Blackberry Bold got wet last week - I am trying to dry it out, but in the meantime, I cannot retrieve my contacts as they are on the phone. Is there any way I can retrieve these contacts from my desktop backup?
I have a Curve 8520 and would like to edit my contacts on my laptop instead of the device.Outlook 2007 does not want so sync with my device, nor does using Excel work.Would someone point me in the right direction?
I want to save my contacts to a folder on my Mac Desktop. Once you have"backed up" address book using the BB software-you are able to "restore" your contacts to your phone
Can you add contacts using the Desktop Manager software? I'm really, really lost on how to enter them without having to type them in with the tiny little keyboard.
I have been ttrying mightily but unsuccessfully to add my contacts from my BB to my desktop PC.I use Microsoft office on my desktop PC. The email address for that is different that my BB address. I don't think that should make a difference as I only want my contacts to be available in the address book there.I tried doing it thru desktop manager and it it seems to have transferred a small percentage of them but by no means all of them.
I've just purchased a BlackBerry Torch. How can I go about transfering contacts from my old BlackBerry Bold to my new one? I can't download desktop manager as I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.11. Is there a way of doing it without the use of deskop manager?
Hey anyone have a link to Blackberry Desktop Software v5...or even v4? V6 has been giving me nightmares since it came out.
I can never get my organizer to allow sync of my contacts...the check box is inaccessible and it states "Not Installed".
I completely uninstalled the application, removed all of the folders and cleaned the registry them reinstalled the program but still have the problem. The last time the Blackberry Desktop Software worked was a very early version of 5 or maybe v4,
My screen is broken so I can't see my contacts. When I connect my BB to the desktop and try and sync the address book-it does not allow me to do so. When I syn my BB to my desktop (a general sync) It shows up as an adobe doc which says is damaged. I just would like to print my contact list
