Backup Assistant how to schedule on BB

How do we get BU Assistant to ask to set a schedule for backing up?
On my older LG phone, I had a choice of backing up morning, afternoon, night. I don't see a choice either on the BB or online at the BU assistant web site. It only asks if I want to restore when I click the icon. 
Online there is a sync button but I don't know if that does a bu from the cell or only from online to the cell if I do editing online. I clicked the sync button (on my computer) and it's been "syncing" for 15 minutes....
My husband has over 400 contacts (business and personal) and needs a reliable backup assist so knowing the details of when is important.
Otherwise - if I do a backup on the Blackberry software, how do I read it? Or is it only proprietary and does a restore from the software?
So many questions when you do a new type of phone....

I still did not have that menu but my spouse did. So I uninstalled and reinstalled after a new download and it's working. So it was a bad installation the first time.
I am grateful for a forum like this to help and be helped. Thanks...

  • Lg cosmos 2 Backup Assistant - How do I DELETE!?

    Every morning I wake up and I must unlock my phone to the cancel the frozen Backup Assistant. I have deleted the App, but it comes back every time you restart the APPs section. How do you complete remove it? This is really ridiculous. It even charges you for the transfer. Why would someone want to . Is  this a ploy by Verizon to get extra money daily out of people like me who are not signed up for a data plan. 
    So it is supposedly "FREE" but charges you! This is really lame and not legal to not let customers remove an app that is "FREE" yet charges you for usage.. 
    It a "FREE" app alright, free to download, but not free to use. I am ok with this since there is a disclaimer at the bottom of the page, but at least have an easy to loacte area of how to remove the app or disable it! These kind of tactics are why people do not trust companies. 
    Please do not give me the same old lame customer service answer redirecting me to some other form telling me how to reschedule or the other stuff. If you can't help me do not reply like you did to the other exact same question sand give a bo bo answer VZW  "Pros". 

        Hi, verizonuser3000-
    I'm sorry for the concerns you have experiencing on the Cosmos 2! To remove the application, you want to navigate to Browse and Download, then just highlight Backup Assistant (without pressing OK to open), then you'll see Options appear in the lower right corner. Select Options, then 'Cancel Subscription' to confirm and remove. After removal, you can then redownload it and start as a new user with your new mobile telephone number. I hope that helps!
    Thank you,

  • Backup assistant- how to save notes?

    I can backup my contacts, but how do i find online so i can save to my computer all the notes i had input throughout the past years I've had this phone?

    You posted this in the Basic phones, so there likely isn't an easy way to do this.  You might look into BitPim, a third party software that allows you to see system files on the phone via the USB connection, and you can download (copy) them to your computer.  It doesn't work with all phones, but it does work well for some of the older, basic phones.
    What phone do you have?

  • Backup Assistant for 2nd line?

    The Backup Assistant page in My Services (on the Verizon Wireless website) only shows my primary number's address book for the Backup Assistant - how can I get this to look at my secondary line?  I just downloaded the app to this 2nd phone, and would like to use it.  Thanks.

    You need to log out of MyVerizon entirely, and then register for a 2nd account using the second number. Each line needs to have it's own log in to access Backup manager.
    If you enter the second number and it says it's already registered, then you need to clear your cookies and totally log out before trying to log in again.

  • How do I turn off the notification in Backup Assistant Plus Media?

    If you turn on "schedule backup", there is nowhere to select the time of the backup. Setting the time of "Recurring Sync" in Backup Assistant + Contacts has no affect on the time of the backup in Backup Assistant Plus Media. Invariably it runs it a 3 am and then sounds the default notification sound. I can't find any way to stop it except to set the default notification sound to "silent". There are some notifications that I want to hear, so this is not a good solution. Does anyone know how to turn off the notification sound?

        timsak,
    Great question! We don't want these notfications keeping anybody up late at night and I personally know how what feels; we'll get to the bottom of it. You can access your Backup assistant plus profile on our website and ajust settings there http://vz.to/1mOFxfz and from your phone, adjust the Sound Settings and Backup Assistant Plus Settings by launching your System Settings. If problems persist, please reset the application from your phone http://vz.to/18HfhrM .

    Hi,
      In Application(SAP) level you can't able to take Backup.
    You can take backup from OS level.
    GO SAVE command and schedule the backup...R3<SID>DATA and R3<SID>JRN...libraries you can take daily..
    Monthly once you cane take Entire System Backup with offline.
    If you want online backup you came go to BRMS..But it is licence product with IBM.
    Thanks

  • How can I restore contacts from Backup Assistant

    My contact list has been corrupted. I have been using Backup Assistant for some time and want to restore my contacts from a previous backup.
    Verizon seems to have changed BA since the last time I used it and the only function seems to be to take my corrupted contact list from my phone and store it.  Any suggestions on recovering my non-corrupted contact list?

    Here is a reply from a VW CS regarding the same question a few months back:
    Click this link Backup Assistant (sign in) to check if contacts are available. You may sync directly from the site, by simply clicking sync on the right hand side (above contacts).
    You may also try to sync by adding your G-mail account to the your device then go to Settings > Accounts & Sync > Ensure Sync is on for G-mail account. You may also select Auto-sync.

  • Backup Assistant Plus simply doesn't work, how do I disable it?

    I have a shiny new Samsung Galaxy S III and when I set up my contacts, I added them as "Phone" entries with the expectation that the Backup Assistant Plus app would allow me to back them up. Except that it doesn't and, from what I've seen online, it is a miserable piece of junk that simply doesn't work for many people.
    Soooo....
    I sent all my contacts as a big V-card to my Gmail account, sorted things out in Gmail, unjoined them all on the phone, and deleted the Phone entries. Now I only have Gmail contact entries and they synch with no issues.
    My only question now is, how do I disable/stop Backup Assistant Plus so that it doesn't constantly give me notifications about how incapable it is? I've tried clearing it's data and forcing it to stop. But it comes back from the dead, like a demonic zombie! It appears the only thing the app can do is resurrect it itself for the sole purpose of notifying me that it will fail to do anything useful.
    Any and all help with this issue is greatly appreciated.

    Your instructions above DO NOT WORK, under Manage Applications I get "Uninstall updates" - I cannot uninstall it. It is a "system application" and I am locked out of that control.  GRRRR.  Clear data does not do anything for performance.

    The reason the steps to uninstall the app didn't work is because the DROID 3 is running Gingerbread (Android 2.3).  The instructions above were for the Samsung Galaxy S III running either ICS (Android 4.0) or Jelly Bean (Android 4.1).
    You can however "Clear the Data" for the app and from that point never use the app.  The phone will learn to not load it into the RAM in case you ever use it.

  • How do i get old contacts off of backup assistant plus

    my phone was reset so how do i get my old contacts from backup assistant plus.  i did not have the cloud set up.

    Are you sure the contacts are in the Backup Assistant Plus? It is my understanding that the Backup Assistant has been incorporated into the VZW Cloud.
    Could the contacts be saved in your Gmail account instead?

  • How do I restore phone contacts from Backup Assistant backups?

    Something caused my contacts to revert to an older version.  I not able to find how to restore them from an earlier Backup Assistant backup.

        I'm super sorry to hear about your contacts, dave658! I'm commited to doing all I can to ensure that you're able to restore your contacts. The best option would be to view your contacts online at vzw.com and follow the instructions below:
    1. Sign in to My Verizon.
    2. Locate the I Want To... section.
    3. Click More Actions.
    4. In the MESSAGING column, select Manage My Contacts. The Backup Assistant Plus: Contacts page displays.
    5. Click Sync to Phone. A confirmation message displays.
    6. Click OK.
    Let me know if this helps. Have a great day! ^CM

  • I had to perform a master reset on my HTC one, before doing so the phone was backed up using the backup assistant app. Now there is no restore button I can find to get my contacts back. How do I restore my contacts?

    I had to perform a Master Reset on my HTC One while trying to work through an issue. This was done with a Verizon rep on the phone and we performed a backup using backup assistant. Now I am not able to restore my contacts because I do not have a "restore" soft button when I open the backup assistant app. How do I restore my contacts?

    Have you updated the dreaded Backup Assistant program?  I think you need to do this first before you can restore.
