Autotext on curve

Autotext is not working on my curve even though it's enabled. Help!!

What do you mean it is not working?
Compose an email and type something like "dont" or "im" or "wel" and what happens?
You should get "don't" and "I'm" and "we'll" -- if those entrie are in your AutoText list.

Help With AutoText Please?

Hi guys, I've had my 8900 Curve for a week now, not had a single problem with it - until now! I updated my software last night through the desktop manager and everything was fine until I started writing a text message, although my autotext is turned on - it isn't picking up everyday words (hello, confused, tomorrow, etc.). It was working absolutely fine before I did the software update, I'd even put in my own abbreviations and stuff but now when I go into my autotext dictionary, it seems to have reset itself and all that's left is what I inputted myself. I haven't changed any of my settings and it is definitely turned on - any ideas?

That' s difficult to write an automator for this.
You need too much help.
Easy way: The Calendar alarm.
Don't spend hours and hours with trying to write an automator script - with or without help.
To put in into the Calendar as a reminder is only a few seconds…
I gave up with automator, since the scripts (3rd party) are mostly out of date…

Mini DVI to Video Curving

Hi,
I just bought a mini-DVI to video cable and am hooking my macbook up to my tv through a composite video cable. It's not working properly and the picture on the tv curves at the edges, almost like it's projecting an image onto a regular tv that has a curved screen. My tv is a flat-screen CRT, not a curved one, and I can't find any options to change the settings so that it won't try to project a curved image. Anyone know anything on this?

reamsjp is right. That curving is in your TV. It is even present when you are watching normal TV programs but it can be hard to tell without straight lines in the image to reference. But if you really go looking for it, say by putting a TV guide table up on the screen that has a lot of straight lines in it, you will be able to see the same curvature.
Hopefully your TV has a submenu for making some adjustments as reamsjp says, but likely you won't be able to improve it much. It's the nature of the beast, flat screen or not.

Curve 8520 cannot send/receive calls or SMS when in range of WiFi - since foreign holiday

Re-posting this in the Curve forum, where it belongs... hoping someone can help.
Recently the whole family went to Spain for two weeks. All four of our phones (a Google Nexus 4, a BB Curve 9300 and two BBCurve 8520s) worked OK in Spain, connected to local mobile networks, sent and received texts and so on.
Since returning to the UK, the BlackBerry handsets have all had problems getting re-registered to our home network (giffgaff, which uses the O2 network, as I understand it). The nexus has been fine from the moment we got back, but the BB handsets are not.
The symptoms: when in range of a registered WiFi connection, the phones cannot send or receive texts (SMS) or make or receive calls, when out of range of WiFi, they do (sometimes) succeed. It is as though the WiFi settings are over-ruling the service books / HRT for the mobile network.
The 9300 seems to have sorted itself out, thanks (possibly) to an OS upgrade. The 8520s remain basically useless.
We have tried: battery pulls, SIM pulls, manual network registration, clearing the service books and re-registering, switching SIM cards between the phones (whichever SIM is in the 9300 works OK, whichever SIM is in the 8520 does not work), OS upgrade.
The network shows on the handset screen, and connection is shown as EDGE. But calls do not get connected and SMS messages fail with "too many retries". Attempts to re-register the handset result in a message being received that the handset has been registered but it makes no difference.
The network provider (giffgaff) say they have done everything they can, and I should speak to "an engineer" - but it seems very unlikely to me that all three phones suffered a hardware fault while flying home from Spain, and that the 9300 somehow fixed itself. So I'm convinced it is a registration issue, but giffgaff are not exactly confident in their support for BB.
So - has anyone ever seen this behaviour before, and how can we fix it?
Thanks

Good day

Caller ID not working on 8330 Curve

Does anyone know how to fix the caller ID on my 8330 curve. Incoming calls from my address book are coming in as "unknown number" - its only some of the contacts, not all. BB supprt and Sprint couldn't figure it out.
Thanks!

First, go into the Phone app (press the Green [Call] button), then hit the [Menu] button (button to the LEFT of the TrackBall) and select Options --> Smart Dialing. Make sure your Country Code and Area Code are set correctly.
Also, make sure that phone numbers in your Address Book entries are formatted like a phone number. The most standard format is:
+1 (123) 123-1234
for the US.

Problems with the O2 blackberry data package on my Curve 3G.

I have already informed O2 about this but they claim that I should be used the blackberry support services, but nothing there helps me!
I got my Blackberry Curve 3G on September 9th this year and I put on the Blackberry Data Package bolt-on onto my phone on September 16th. I then received a text to say they've taken £5 from my credit and it will be up and running in the next 24 hours. Its now September 19th and my BBM is not working at all and I am extremely upset with the services and behaviour I have received from both O2 and Blackberry.
Is there any way you can help? If this fails, I shall be forced to go back to the shop from where I got my Blackberry from and ask for their help.
Many thanks, Jade.

Curve 3G keeps deleting my txt messages..

Hello all
I have Curve 9300 3G, running on OS 6 (6.0.0.600, platform 6.6.0.223)
The device is automatically deleting my messages after few feeks, starting from the oldest (they last about 1 month than they are deleted..)
I have tried to look for an option of "how long to save messages" in the device and couldn't find any.... In the device manual it says and in the device Help\Search it sais the same:
home->messages->options-> Message Display and Actions , but this sub-category option doesn't appear on my device messages options (i googled it and also ppl said they can't find this option on their curve 3G...)
i have in option of messages this sub-categories:
General Text Messaging options, SMS Text, MMS and in none of them there is an option regarding how long to keep txt messages...
* Memory Cleaning is disabled
** Also in some searches in google ppl said free some memory. it is not the problem.. i have 70 MB free on the device and 7GB free in my memory card.. my BB is new.. only 2 month old
so where can i set the device settings regarding saving my messages?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

if u read my post carfully u can see that i know that.. i wrote it in my post..
i have found out why i don't see this menu: Message Display and Actions, there is a bug in the OS 6 with my BB or just with curve 3G i don't know.. other people reportet my problem as well
when i go to options of messages it don't get this submenues:
Message Display and Actions
Inbox Management
Email account Managment
Spell Check
Text Messaging
after going to options of messages it goes straight to Text Messaging... and doesn't show thouse 5 sub-menues
and because of this bug i can't even find "Message Display and Actions" in the general search of the device..
the solution :
go to the call logs, then select one of the call logs and press on home button and select options
then u see the 5 sub-categories\menues with Message Display and Actions among them, go inside and there u can select the option of how long to keep messages
took me some time of playing with the device to find this crappy bug and find another way to get this Message Display and Actions..
hope it will helps other with this bug in the OS

Please help! How do you MMS with the Red BB Curve 8330m (4.5.0.131 software/firmware) on Sprint ?

Greetings!!!
I'm a newbie to BlackBerry devices but a long time user of cell phones and I have just one question which I hope isn't a difficult one to answer. I don't know if I'm missing something here, but how do you send an picture or photo via MMS? All I see in my message options is SMS text.
I just got the new Red BB Curve 8330m with the 4.5.0.131 software/firmware from Sprint.
I did a search here but didn't find an answer.
TIA for any help here!

No problem, if it wasn't for questions there wouldn't be forum, Right?
So you checked the firewall, and you can receive, that means you have the application,
Have you ever done a battery pull or sent service books since receiving the device?

CS4 Text around a bottom curve but text straight up and down?

I have to change the names on bottles that were shot and so I am trying to type the names. 1st I tried Photoshop and could not get the 3D to work and could not get the arc or the warp to work correctly.
So I went over to Illustrator. I finally got it figured out how to get the text on the bottom of the curve and reading corectly... BUT... the text on the R side of the curve, curves into the curve instead of each letter staying straight up and down horizontally. Help please? Nothing like being short on time and having to figure out how to get the text on a curve with the letters staying straight up and down instead of curving into the curve. Thank you!!!

OK. I did that but now I am trying to copy paste into my Photoshop file but when it comes out of Illustrator... It brings an odd white box that is really messing me up!!! Why won't it let me just copy the text? Why is Illustrator making an extra white box that is blocking my image? Thanks. See the 2 below. 1 is the bottle before I have gotten the name over and the other, is the bottle when I am trying to paste just the text in place. For some reason, Illustrator is adding a white box that is messing me up? 1 is how it should look. 2 is Illustrator is making an extra white box that is covering up most of my bottle.

Blackberry Curve HELP with 2 things.....sending pics via text and calls/SERVICE PROVIDER IS SPRINT

Can it be done? I am having a hard time figuring that out. Can I send a picture I take using text feature? Not having to send via email or using bluetooth? You know how other phones, you just choose a picture and choose to send the picture and then you choose the contact to send to.... How do I do that with the curve? I need to send pictures and sending via email doesnt work when I need the picture to go through right away. Help!
Also, I have been having this huge problem... I get a phone call or make a phone call and the phone goes back to my screen saver and not the phone call screen where it shows how long you are on the phone, the screen where it shows you are on a phone call. It has been that sometimes the phone doesnt hang up and since the call stays on the screen saver screen I dont realize it and people on the phone are listening to my conversations. Or i accidently hit a button without realizing it and it calls someone but I dont know this because the phone doesnt show me its making a phone call and I hear voices.... not in my head, coming from the phone. Or i make a phone call and think the call didnt go through and start going through phone book and other options on my phone without realizing the person I called is already on the phone. I hope I made sense.

Curve 8530 SMS Text Problems

My Curve 8530 will receive and send SMS texts ok for a while. Then, for no reason, I cannot click on an sms and open it. It will not show the previous texts. I cannot open the txt to make a reply. I took this to Verizon, he checked it and said there was definitely a problem, of course didn't have another phone, so ordered me one. A few days later I got a new (or probably refurbished) 8530. It's doing the same thing. So this is either a defect in the phone line or in the software for SMS text messages. I am very disappointed with Blackberry. I have had several of their phones, try to keep up with the newest technology even though it always costs me hundredes of dollars for the phones. I think this will be my last. If I cannot get this problem resoloved, I am switching to AT&T.

I got two of these phones and they both are doing it. I do a significant amount of work related texting on my main line 8530... I have to pull the battery anywhere from 5 to 10 times per day. I have contacted Verizon and I'm sending these 8530s back and replacing them with what I had before; the MUCH better, more professional and stable 8330.
I used my 8330 non-stop for 3 years. Never once had a problem with the trackball (Verizon told me the 8530 fixed the trackball problem---???)... Additionally, in the 3 years of using my 8330 non-stop, I may have had to pull the battery twice, from a lock up. Both times it was when I was actively using Internet, teathered to my laptop and an incoming call came. When I'd answer it, the call would work and when I'd hang up, the phone would crash...
The 8330 sold me on the Blackberry OS... The 8530 acts more like a Windows OS, IMHO.
A very dissatisfying experience.

Text Message display on Curve 9360

Hi...just got a new Curve 9360. The default text message display shows all messages i.e. if I've sent a text most recently that is what I see at the top. What I want it to do is show the SMS Inbox (which I can navigate to via the folder options, but I can't find a way to set it as a default). Can't work out how to do it either on the device or when connected to the PC. Any suggestions...?...R

Do you mean that currently ALL of your email messages and SMS text messages are mixed in one folder when you view, and you want to see a folder on your homescreen of ONLY your SMS text messages? And your email messages in another folder?
If so, on your device, open that Messages folder > press the Menu key > Options > Inbox Management and check the box on "Text Messages", and save. That will put an SMS Text message folder on your screen.
