I am having a problem with appointments in my calendar older than 30 days or so deleting themselves. I have checked the Calendar settings and I have checked "Keep Appointments Forever".
It seems iphone's calendar automatically deletes past appointments. It won't even let me make an appointment for something that happened in the past. I need to reference old appointments though so is there some way to make the iphone save old appointments or at least ask me? It has nothing to do with syncing to my computer as I rarely do that. This is really annoying. My old Palm would save everything and it was great since I could go back and see the last time I went to the dentist, etc.
could anyone please help me out i wanna delete all the pictures on my storm but dont want to do it one by one.Is there anyway you can delete them all at once?
Does anybody know how I keep all of my past appointments on the Electrify? I check my google calendar which is syncing fine and see all of my past appointements, however they are gone from the phone. Additionally, even though my google calendar is scheduled out for the entire year, my phone calendar stops at December 15th, 2012.
I have had my storm for a week now and after restarting to finalise deleting some apps this green flashing LED light came on. But it's not like a coverage indicator where it flashes constantly it flashes 8 times then goes of for about 5 minutes and then flashes again.
So I tried a battery pull to see if it would go away and the green LED did but now the exact same thing is happening except the LED is red (flashes 8 times stops for 5 mins flashes 8 times and so on)
The calendar entries are disappearing. I have Keep Forever checked. I generally have between 12-20 MB free app space; right now it's at 19. None of my tasks, emails or SMS/MMS are disappearing, only my calendar entries from previous months.
I use the Storm's calendar as my client scheduling tool -- I NEED to know when I last saw clients for my quarterly and year end reports. I use Nice Office as a CRM and backup -- but when I asked them, they looked into the sync and said the delete was coming from the BB itself, not from them. I do not use Outlook, as I don't run on Windows.
I have used smartphones since the Civil War, and usually when there is a desktop to sync to, there is a calendar on the desktop. The only icons on the BB desktop are Media, Application Loader, Backup and Restore, Device Switch Wizard, Synchronize and IP Modem. Seems sort of unnecessarily idiosyncratic, but what do I know? I can't find anything on the BB site, where they evidently think email is the most important issue. Probably for some.

I have Blackberry Storm 9530, and have been having major trouble with my calendar.It started as a duplication problem. I have an Outlook email account & a yahoo email account, and somehow, I ended up with one calendar for each of those PLUS a facebook calendar.
When I would synch my outlook calendar (which is the only calendar I use), my appointments would show up on EACH of those calendars, so it looked like I had 3 appointments for every one!
Then, before I had time to figure that out, I started getting a synching problem - I'd get an error message every time I tried to synch my MS Outlook calendar to my BB. I did some searching on this forum for answers, and tried a few things (like synching only one way or the other way, checking for weird characters, etc) - but nothing helped.
THEN, before I had time to figure that one out, suddenly all my appointments on my device have disappeared! I have tried manually entering an appointment into the device itself, and it won't show up. However, if I try to do it a second time (setting an appointment for that same time period) the interface will say I have a conflicting appointment.
After I saw this, I changed my desktop application so that it would only synch FROM the outlook calendar TO the device and it appeared to synch fine (with no error message), but still nothing at all appears on the calendar.
I've searched the forum but haven't found an answer for this yet. The calendar entries are disappearing. I have Keep Forever checked. I generally have between 12-20 MB free app space; right now it's at 19. None of my tasks, emails or SMS/MMS are disappearing, only my calendar entries from previous months.

I do not use Outlook, as I don't run on Windows. I really need to get this straightened out now -- I switched to the BB specifically for these features. Does anyone have any ideas what may be going on??
From my desktop computer I use a USB cable to synchronize my Outlook contacts, calendar and tasks to my Storm2. I also have a laptop computer and use BlueTooth to synchronize it's Outlook contacts, calendar and tasks with the Storm2. The synchronization seems work fine. I wanted to access my personal email so I set it up by selecting SET UP then EMAIL SETTINGS and followed the wizard. It worked perfectly but it also created another calendar which seems to be associated to the new email address. This caused problems when trying to synchronize, my desktop was updating one calendar while the laptop was updating the other. When I deleted the email address the extra claendar was also deleted. Am I missing something, why is a second calendar created when I setup an email account?
With the wealth of programming in the BB OS, it just seems anomalous that nobody has made a nice, rich and accessible business-type calendar/datebook that can sync with a desktop version so that new items can be typed in, instead of relying on the functional-but-certainly-slower onscreen method. And, so the calendar can be viewed from the desktop when appropriate.
I come from a long history of smartphones, from Kyocera through Palm, etc., and never thought to come up against this particular brick wall. So since RIM hasn't devised one, I thought I'd search the Web Store and find one, but specialized calendars seem to be the rule.Tried Google Calendar, but so far it won't sync with the RIM datebook.

I synced my phone with my work calendar and since then the phone likes to wake me up extra early with reminders about things happening that day.This is driving me crazy - How do I get rid of all the appointments?I've tried options/ delete - but it will only let me delete the ones in the past.I've tried changing the date on the phone and deleting them - and it says it's done it but the appointments are still there.
My Storm 1 crashed Sunday night with message on screen stating 'Reload Softwares 552'. I called Verizon Tech Support and they just ended up giving me a brand new Storm 2 for free! All I had to do was re-sign my contract for another two years. Gonna miss my Storm 1 but the Storm 2 is sweet! Just got it today. Anyone wanting to upgrade, try using that excuse.
I tried to delete a few recurring appointments from my calendar. When I view my calendar the appointments still appear. I attempt to try and delete the appointments again and I receive the following message:
Appointment deleted externally. Changes will be lost and the viewer closed.Does anyone know how I can delete my appointments and not have them appear? In some cases, the same appointment is listed twice.
I have lost the ability to send calendar appointments to other users? I am able to receive them and accept/decline etc, however all they get from me is a word type document?
I just noticed in my Blackberry that all my appointments are purging out for the previous month. This is a very serious situation because I need to refer back to my calendar and look at past appointments. I checked my sync settings and I have it set that my phone overrides my Outlook calendar and on my phone I have it set to save appointments forever.
Had my torch for a week now, all works great except I get no reminders at all from the calendar for appointments, no pop up on screen, no tones or vibrates. If I set a reminder alarm then that works, so does the alarm clock in the morning and all of my message alerts, phone, text, e-mail etc, but nothing from the calendar appointments.
Using the search function I am not able to search the calendar for appointments. For example, I see, on my calendar, that it says "Soni birthday" for May 23. However, I could not enter "Soni" in the search function, select calendar, and find the date of her birthday. Same for all appointments, recurring and single entries.
I have a Verizon iPhone 4s running IOS 5.1.1 (9B206) managed by Mobile Iron and synchronizing with an Exchange Server 2007 SP3. It appears that certain calendar entries, which are present when viewed in Outlook, are not synching over to the iPhone. The only pattern I have been able to establish is that most of the appointments in question are calendar invites from other parties. The interesting thing is that the majority of appointments that are invites from other parties synchronize over to the iPhone fine, and I have worked through a number of test scenarios, but can't seem to pinpoint the cause of the issue. I have read through a number of threads and it seems that this has affected others as well, but no proposed solutions I have tried thus far seem to fix the issue.
I have setup the desktop software to have 2-way synch between Outlook and the Calendar. if I add an entry in Outlook, it appears on the device, and if I edit an existing entry on the device, the change appears in Outlook. These calendar entries appear in a calendar called 'Default'. There is also another calendar called 'Desktop' which has a CICAL service book associated to it, but there is no CICAL for the 'default' calendar.
If I add a new appointment on the device, it will only allow it to be added to the 'Desktop' calendar, but since this is not the one that is being synchronised with Outlook, the appointment does not get transferred to Outlook.
I do not want to change to wireless sysnchronisation since this does not seem to work for my default Outlook calendar which is in my local pst file rather than on the exchange server account.
I recently updated the software on my Blackberry Storm 9500 to version 5.0 and now i cannot send mms (though I can still receive mms).I have spent over 4 hours on the phone with my carrier (Vodafone) and they have no idea why I can no longer send mms. I tried downgrading the software and found I could send mms again.Is there any way of fixing it so i can have the newest version of software on my Blackberry and still be able to send mms?
