I have been unable to communicate with one of my old contact since the worldwide blackberry contact a couple of weeks ago . So we decided to delete each other and add each other again. That did not work because whenever I send her invites, she never gets them . However, I get hers but when I hit accept it pushes her to 'pending' .This situation is weird and really frustrating.
I have a mere 3 BB Msgr contacts, all of which have worked fine the last several months. Suddenly this week, I cannot communicate with one contact, but can with the others. Re-inviting problem contact via email or PIN does not work - invitation never received. Also tried being invited by other BB contact, I never receive the invite. Have tried the trouble shooting described (deleted pending invites, battery reboot, reinvite) to no avail. Now I have stopped getting messages from other 2 BB contacts and am wondering if they have suddenly stopped working also.
The problem I am facing is that I added my dad at BBM (he is in malaysia i'm in the UK), we can see each other's contact at bbm, but we can't communicate. I can receive his voice notes and everything. I can send him a message too, BUT with a tick next to my messages but without R or D, he claims that he didnt receive any of them.
I tried battery pull, deleting and adding contact (took a while as it takes time for the friend request to be accepted/ add to friend list) and ... googling and i ran out of ideas.
Is it a problem with my blackberry 9700 white or my dad's? or his carrier?
I returned my Blackberry for repair and received a new Blackberry. However, my contact list was not moved to the new phone. At Swisscom (swiss provider) they told me to obtain this at the Desktopmanager at Blackberry's website. But now I am lost, do not know what/where to do?
My friend just got a used blackberry curve today and downloaded BBM. He's been sending me a request but I don't receive it and vice versa when I send him one. We've tried saving my pin under my contact info on his fone and vice versa on mine and still nothing.
I've got contact lists on my BB that I don't even have email addresses for., different entries for the same person, etc. (I haven't sync'd addresses in the past because a lot of contacts I didn't want on my BB anyway) ..I've got addresses in Thunderbird and addresses in Yahoo... it's ridiculously disorganized! OK, so finally, I decided to clean it all up and sync everything after corrections and deleting duplicates.
Today my entire contact list disappeared. Also, in the text messages app my recipients cellphone phone numbers are displayed but only some of the contact names are displayed.
Even though I have downloaded latest software 4.5 and have turned off wireless synch, I cannot get my windows 7 contacts from Windows Live to upload to my device..I have gone through all of the help topics on the desktop software to no avail?
I am trying to change existing contacts that were unknowing saved in "Unknown Contact List" to "Default Contact List" can someone please explain if/how I can do this???? I have already tried deleting my address book and restoring it but that didnt work..i need my contacts in default to make the Vlingo app to work...
I have been using Outlook 2010 for quite a while and then switched to Outlook 2011 with my former employer. The switch went very smooth and even on my BlackBerry I did not notice any difference. All contact pictures remained on the device and even when I added new ones it was synchronized to the device perfectly independently of the image size. Now I've changed jobs and with my new employer I've re-imported my contacts into Outlook 2011 again. From an Outlook 2011 perspective everything looks great, all pictures are there however they are not on my BlackBerry. Every new contact or every removed one will synchronize perfectly to my BlackBerry - only the contact pictures won't. I've tried inserting new ones, I've played around with image sizes as I've read something about certain limitations, I've spoken to the BES admin and he confirmed this feature has not been turned off on the BES.
I have lost access to couple of emails and most of my contacts in the address book is under these emails. However, I have all the contacts on my Old BB. So now I am switching to a new BB and I cannot move contacts to the new one.I have used desktop manager but the files are "read only".
Is it possible to restore bbm contact back up from my previous device? I have switched to Torch 9810 from Bold 2. I have backed up all bbm contacts wirelessly via an email account. The problem is my Torch 9810 crashed (JVM error 545) which had forced me to wipe out the device and load new OS before I back up my bbm contact wirelessly on the new device. I have also backed up to my pc via Blackberry Desktop Software and Blacberry Protect but when I restore it didn't restore BBM contacts only phonebook contact.I thought I can restore using my email on this Torch but no.its also seems to be linked to my PIN number. Thus, when i try to restore using my email it said "no account linked to this email" :-(
I recently just received a blackberry. I had no trouble transferring my photos from my previous phone to my blackberry. Now I am having issues with transferring my contact list over to my bluetooth. My previous phone is Verizon.
How to transfer photos, contacts, notes etc., from blackberry phone (9900 model) to my recently purchased iPhone 5S? Though it is pairing, but failing to transfer the data.
i'm currently using bb storm 9530 and got desktop manager installed in my laptop (running vista) as well as my desktop computer (windows xp), i find it strange that both my computers can't communicate with my bb despite setting off my firewall and anti-virus (norton 360). how can i resolve this problem cause i can't run any updates on my bb through usb port?
I updated the software last week. Syncs with Outlook worked for a few days, now I get this error message. Then "checking for BlackBerry device software updates, please wait" and it hangs.
My Torch 9800 has syced with the desktop and laptop with no problems since I got it in late 2010.A fe days ago the above message appeared and neither desktop nor laptop will synce. As far as I can see all software is up to date.
My wife and I both have IPhone 4. She is overseas I am in US. Can we use FaceTime to communicate without incurring phone charges? Is it like using Skype over wifi?
I recently upgraded to a Bold 9650 with Sprint.I have BES for work, but am using the Internet Browser and can access the internet just fine.I am also able to use Google Maps just fine.When I try to use Blackberry Maps, I just get grey lines (no data downloaded). My GPS appears to work fine, as the app can find satellites and my location it just does not download/draw the maps.When I try a search for either a zip code or a city, I get a message that says "Request to server failed". I have deleted and reinstalled Blackberry Maps without resolution.I have also deleted the Blackberry Maps service book, but that did not resolve the issue either (it reappears after restart, so I assume it has re-downloaded a new service book). I have also contacted my company's IT, and they confirmed that the company does not block Blackberry Maps through the BES. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get my Blackberry Maps to communicate with the server? Could this be an issue with the WiFi or SIM (since Sprint is CDMA)? I have found similar issues online, but none with Sprint and none with a successful resolution.
My BlackBerry Desktop Software suddenly interrupts to communicate with my BlackBerry 9800 device. I begin to receive a massage:"BlackBerry Desktop Software cannot communicate with theconnected device"The BB9800 isn't rebooting, has full-charged battery and I havethe latest Desktop Software, but "retry" option doesn't help.I have reinstalled the Desktop Software but it doesn't help as well.I can see both device's and media-card's folders and can work with them, but cannot use any other options of theBlackBerry Desktop Software.
I cannot hear callers on handset device and must turn on speaker to communicate.So privacy is compromised whenever I need to talk on the phone, as it will be on speaker mode.
I had tried all the following and nothing works: - make sure Bluetooth is turned off - removed battery and put back after 1 ~5 mins - Do backup, update the latest software and restore
i've been noticing some problems with my controls on my keyboard. In fact, I was not able to use the red button, de back button, the q,a,w,s and z buttons either. I decided so to restore my blackberry. But, when I was restoring it, my sister unplugged it and since then, I am not able to do anything with it. It loads (where it's written blackberry with a loading bar) and right after, there is a white screen with error 200 on it. Now, when I replug it into my computer, it says : Blackberry desktop software can't communicate with the phone connected. There is no way I can restore it again or do anything.
I just bought a BB 8820 unlocked, it's made on Hungary and it shows on the screen a battery with a red line crossed, I know what the symbol means BUT the battery is OK, it's the right model C-X2 and I already tried it on a different phone and it's working fine. PLUS, the desktop manager cannot connect to the device,the application loader neater. I download the 4.2.2 device software and had the VENDOR file erased too, I start running the "loader" from C:Program FilesCommon FilesResearch In MotionAppLoader. and it loads the JVM and system software but when it is initializing the device I get the connection error and that's it. FROZEN AGAIN. The screen with the crossed battery is the only one I'm able to see.I try to replace the USB cable and the soft reset too with no results.What can I do, help me please!
I've been using this app for months! That is until two days ago when I updated the OS on my 8530. From then on the podcast app 1.0.0.48 has failed to "communicate with the server" when I try the Explore Podcasts feature, and also no longer notifies me (or downloads) new episodes. I rolled back to the previous version of the OS and the problem still exists.
