BB (RIM) :: From 8900 To 9700 / How To Do A Device Transfer With MAC OS BB User Tools
Aug 6, 2010
I did a search and couldn't find how to transfer all my info on my 8900 to my new 9700 with BB user tools using MAC OS. Can't find any info in the book or the help on the CD and software. I've backed up my 8900 and was going to restore the info on my 9700 cause I couldn't find the device transfer icon on my macbook but I know where it is on my work machine on Windows. Am I missing something here or am I just half asleep.

my 8900 crashed on me today and they are replacing it.I decided to try the 9700 while I wait for the 8900.I was initially going to just sell the 8900 replacement on eBay and enjoy my new 9700.However, I am slightly disappointed with the 9700.I love the keyboard over the 8900.I also love the track pad and I thought I would hate it.What I don't like about the 9700 is the 3G seems to be about as slow as the EDGE. I don't use the browser much anyways so it is not much of a feature for me.Not sure if the better feeling keyboard and track pad is worth the price of a new $400 phone.Am I missing something about the 9700?

I have an issue with a brand new Bold 9700. When receiving a text (SMS) the user's name is not displayed, just their mobile number details. All the details of the person are stored in my contacts on the phone, and if you click the options against the text message, it then figures out the name of the sender as it adds their name in the options to email, call, SMS etc.I went into the SMS options and initially saw that the "Show names" option was marked as "No". I thought, aha changed it to "yes" but this makes no difference.
My O/S is v5.0.0.344 (Platform 5.1.0.96)
Carrier is Vodafone in the UK
I did see other posts for updates, but these related to O/S version 4xx which seems to be a different version to mine (which also seemed strange as mine is a brand new phone), and so was kind of scared to try that on my O/S.

I am a regular user of my BB. I had the iPhone before (yes I know, awful person, haha) and then I switched back. What app's do you, personally, think is the best. Games, Utilities, Just for fun, Something to do...

Recently purchased a Belkin Micro USB Bluetooth dongle, plugged into my Vaio and installed drivers that came with the CD.
currently running Windows 7, and I can pair the phone...the usb dongle works, however, when transferring music files wirelessly it stops at anything under 30%. I have tried unisntalling the bluetooth drivers and installing others but to no avail...i get the same hanging problem.I can transfer photos no problem, click to send via bluetooth on laptop, set the phone to receive but no luck with music files.

I purchased new Bold 9900 and want to transfer contact list from old Curve 8900 to new phone using Bluetooth. The 8900 transfered all data, confirming the number of entries it transferred, but the 9900 only received the first entry in my contact list. How do I get all contacts into the 9900?

I have a Curve 8900 with no SIM card that I am using strictly off-line and via Wi-Fi.(No Cellular connection)When I plug it into my computer with a USB cable, it syncs email, contacts and calendar with no problems at all.However, when I try to transfer music, pictures or videos to or from the BB, I get a message saying "A problem occurred while attempting to connect to your BlackBerry device." It then offers the "Troubleshoot my connection" link.If I go into the "Device Options" section of the Desktop Software, I can check the "Organizer" or "My computer's date and time..." boxes under "Synchronize" but the "Media" box is grayed out and cannot be checked.

When I try to send text messages or to back up my info to the ICloud,everything seems to be linked to her email address and I can't get rid of it. Do I need to wipe it all out and re-install all my contacts and pictures all over again?

I upgraded from a MotoRazr2 V8 to a BlackBerry 8900 Curve so I wanted to transfer my data from the Moto to the BB. Well, I learned that Moto doesn't play nicely with Mac so my MacBook Pro was not much of a help. I had better luck with my HP running XP and managed to get the contacts switched without too much trouble.
The SMS records are another matter. I couldn't find a way to transfer them using BB Desktop Manager so I made a text file copy of them into a Windows folder I created. Two actually - one for inbox and one for sent items. Now I can't find a way to load those text files onto the Curve. I've tried every way I could think of using Desktop Manager but no dice. I would love a solution that does not require buying more software.

I have a BB Curve 8900 & am having difficulty transferring my full iTunes library to my BB device. For some reason it only tranfers around 50 of my total 300. It now seems to accept all the latest purchases from iTunes but not the older/historic ones.I have tried this using the Blackberry Desk Top Manager synching. Can anyone help here to enable me to transfer my full library across.

My Curve 8900 has started to lock on it's own. Sometimes it happens when I'm typing an email or text, sometimes it happens when I'm waiting for a browser page to upload. Initially I thought it might be a particular keystroke I was hitting but it has happened when I'm simply holding the device and not typing at all. Has anyone had this problem or does anyone know how to fix it?

My home broadband is down. My box is broke.I know I can use my BB as a modem to use the internet on my laptop.All very easy to set up via the pc software...My question is, would my network (02UKy know I'm doing so? I rang them to ask and they told me t'd cost me a bomb. But is that just because they had the chance to throw a charge at me?Would they know by the type or amount of data being used or by any other way?I have a BB Bolt on (unlimited BB usage) on my contract!

I'm hoping someone can help me with something. I'm having an issue with constant data transfer and I wanna know what it is. I know the upload and download arrows flash every once in a while when changing areas around town but I have a lot of up and down data transfer and its draining my battery. I deleted all my apps and I am using just a plain precision zen theme and wiped my phone and started fresh but its still happening. It seems to stop a little when I turn of WiFi and GPS and it completely stops when I turn off all radio services. If I do this my battery will last all day but if I turn everything back on my battery will be dead in about 3 hours.
I'm running 5.0.0.592 on my T-MO 8900 .Is there a way to tell what's sending info so much? Is there an app out there that can tell me what's sending?

I wanted to update my device software (currently v4.6.1) to the v5.0. However when i try to run the update it tells me i must have a data plan. Do you think/know if it is possible to activate my data plan for, lets say, a month, install the new version, and then deactivate de data plan and keep using the v5.0 with no problems?
(has anyone tried this?)
(is it worth the update?)
(is it worth the risk?)

8900 Curve (EDGE, Wi-Fi)
Carrier - Rogers
v.4.6.1.250 (Platform 4.2.0.113)
My outlook email account is on my device. In other words, emails to my outlook emails address goes to both my outlook and my device.
Is it possible, if I respond to an outlook email on my blackberry for that sent response from my blackberry to be in my sent folder in my outlook. In other words, can I synchronize my device with outlook so that any responses sent on my device regarding outlook emails get reflected in my outlook. I believe you need to have BES - but I don't have that. My device is a personal one - not a corporate one without any connection to a corporate server. Is it possible without BES to do the synchronization?

I have a Blackberry Curve 8900, Windows XP SP2, Desktop Manager 4.7 and a 3com PCMIA Bluetooth Card. Using the card I have successfully paired my computer with my Blackberry. All the services on the blackberry are enabled and the Bluetooth software shows that the serial port service is available using COM4. When I open Desktop Manager and open Connection Options, the 'use bluetooth' option is grayed out, so I cannot connect my Blackberry. Does anyone know what to do?
