BBM on BB Classic eating up a lot of mobile data during one day and without reason

Hello, on August 1, BBM (10.9.5.22) on my Classic (software release 10.3.1.1779) suddenly consumed about 125 megabytes of data via mobile network within one day, without having used BBM for anything but a few text messages and with only one chat having been active. Maybe there were about two photos, but only in the default low resolution which are never above a few hundred kilobytes. Is anyone able to explain this behaviour? I'm a little bit frustrated as 125 megabytes are a lot if the free "high speed" volume per month is only several 100 megabytes, and BBM consumes a lot of it right of the beginning of a month And otherwise, e.g. for video calling, it asks if you really want to do that on a mobile network...  Thanks for any idea and best regards, Hans-Juergen

The frustration continues... now BBM consumes at least (!) 40 megabytes per day, by only using it for a fwe text messages. However, I found an interesting knowledge base article saying that "BBM" within the device monitor might be related to other tasks using an "EBMService". http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB36954 Here are the most recent mobile data usage graphs - totals first:  Then BBM details:  As a comparison, the previous month. On July 18th I started using BBM, and it seems it already started eating mobile data there right away:  Before I started using BBM, 500 megabytes per month were more than enough. Now it seems as if BBM alone will berak my current 1 GB limit far before the end of this month! By searching the forum, I found multiple similar issues, but none of them solved completely. Except for the parental control attempt, but as I want to use BBM, that is not appropriate for me. http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BBM-for-BlackBerry/BBM-high-data-wi-fi-usage/m-p/3110624 http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BBM-for-BlackBerry/Extreme-BBM-Data-usage-this-past-month/m-p/3104776 http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BBM-for-BlackBerry/BBM-Data-usage-extremely-high/m-p/3098544 http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BBM-for-BlackBerry/BBM-extreme-data-usage/m-p/3079395

  • HT5085 doesnt listening to music from the cloud eat up a lot of your data usage? like traveling on 3g

    When listening to music from the cloud, doesn't that eat up a lot of data usage since its constantly streaming or downloading music over the 3g/4g nework? I get it if your at home and on wi-fi, but if you're at the gym, uot in the car, etc.........

    Yes it does.  An hour of music streaming may use around 120 MB.  If you do that every day it could easily go past your cap. 
    However, streaming audio is not as bad as streaming video.

  • I have tried a lot to find an app or some way in email to attach multiple of pdf files in one email. I could not find anything that sends multiple pdf file in one email and still keeping the file in simple pdf format for the recipient.

    I am not aware of a way except for photos that allows you to select multiple files in an email. I even checked settings in the Adobe Reader app, and it does not show that ability.

  • Problems syncing and lots of "Other" data

    I have a 32gb iPod Touch 5th gen running iOS 7. I have 2 major issues, as stated in the title.
    The first is with syncing. As iTunes goes through the steps it gets stuck on "Waiting for items to copy" or "Waiting for changes to be applied;" whichever happens to be the last step. I've managed to get around this by stopping the automatic sync and clicking "Back Up Now" and "Sync" seperately. Frustraiting, but it worked. But lately I've been having to restore from a backup just to put a few new songs on it. And sometimes that doesn't even work.
    On top of that there's been a growing mass of "Other" data. It's pretty firm at sitting around 7.27 gigs. I've gotten it to completely dissapear once (save for a few megabytes), but then discovered that half of the music that should be on my iPod wasn't (I have just under 15 gigs of music on it), and when I got it back on, the other data was back exactly the same size as before. inversely, it's jumped to as much as almost 10 gigs, but after a similar problem and fix, it shrank to 4.26.
    I've heard the only way to get rid of either of these problems is to restore to factory settings, but I really don't want to do that since I have a lot of irriplacable data (game records, worlds in Minecraft, notes, etc.), but I'm afraid that may be my only option.
    I can assure you I have my data under control, I understand how to delete unwanted data to free up space, so going through settings and deleting unused apps and data wont help. All in all I have precisely 14.97gb of music, 920.4mb of photos, 1.66gb of apps, 44mb of doccuments & data, now there's 8.17gb of other data, and only 2.24gb free.
    Is there any way to fix this besides resetting? Any help is appreciated, I hope this makes sense, and thank you for reading.

    These 8GB is mostly corrupted data I suppose.
    Since you do sync and backup manually, when you look in iTunes now, goto preferences then the devices tab, you see two backups. is there one that has a date before this 8GB mess happened?
    If yes, it is easy: connect, do the "RESTORE iPOD", then after that "restore from backup" and choose the older backup. Done.
    If not, there is a problem, you cannot, as it is, restore from the backup, because that has all corrupted data in it.
    Tell me and we will find a another way to get back your data, maybe not all. wait with restoring the ipod.

  • I have an Ipod Classic, one day he appears without music, now that i want to sync with my itunes an error occur. I download all the new itunes version and ipod software but again error. How do I make it work?

    My ipod classic, have these problem:
    One day I find out that all the music was completely gone, I always charged the ipod on Ihome.
    So, I connect the ipod to my computer to sync the music, but mi computer recognize the ipod as a memory device. so delete itunes from my computer, following some support guides that i found in the mac support web. Again, it didnt work. The itunes doesnt detect it.
    then I try to sync on a macbook, then it told it was corrupted i should restore th ipod, i try it but this could not be done... cause an error occur.
    How I can restore my ipod...

    Does both your Windows and Macbook iTunes have the same library of songs?
    if it  does then, much easier to proceed, else try to load the Macbook with the same library as Windows.
    Note that only one of the Macbook USB port is good for iPod Classic, the other is too slow and may cause timeout, and I would suggest disconnect all other USB devices, while you Restore or Sync the iPod Classic.
    Connect the iPod to the Mac, (if iTunes launch, please close it back.)
    Use Disk Utility -> select the iPod Device->First Aid->Repair (use option FAT32)
    After the Repair complete, eject the iPod.
    Connect back to the Mac
    When iTunes launch, Restore the iPod when Prompted, (use FAT32)
    Sync your library.
    Good Luck!

  • I got an ipod classic for Christmas and it stopped playing correctly in Feb. I went to the apple store in belfast which is 45min for them to tell me that there was no one there to help on that day and to make an appointment, but a, reluctant to go back!

    my ipod classic keeps keeping my songs, and know not only is my ipod play up but itunes is too, very poor service from apple when i have been a customer for so long, i have had 4 ipods, 2 iphones and an ipad, in this day and age you would think they would provide you with a better quality of products and services! I went down to my closest apple store and the floor assistant informed me that there was no one there to help me with me problem, what a waste of time, money and fuel, now i have had the problem nealry 5 months and am relutant to go back to be turned away again, i dont even know if i am covered to get it fixed? Is there a more simple way i can sent my ipod away to get fix? but then again thats more money wasted on postage!can someone please advise the best thing to do?
    Also i think that apple need to re-think there search engine as i found it ery difficult to find were i can even book in with someone for techinical support??
    HELP BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!!!!!1

    Make an appointment at the genius bar.
    If you went without an appointment, then it would make sense that you could be turned away.

  • How do I scale a lot of images using CSS in HTML5 and CSS3

    I have a CSS image gallery that displays a larger photo with descriptive text below it, when a thumbnail image is hovered on.
    Each photo has code like that following:
    <a class="thumbnail" >
    <img src="thumbs1/paradethumbs/DSC_0073.jpg" alt="thumbnail picture" />
    <span><img src="pics1/paradepics/DSC_0073.jpg" alt=" " /><br /> 19 - a black faced sheep.</span>
    </a>
    The first source is a thumbnail,  image stored at a size of 72 by 48.
    The second source is an image stored at 600 x 400.
    When the thunbnail is hovered on, the larger photo is displayed at its full size using css.
    There are 20 or so thumbnails in this gallery, and different numbers in other galleries that use the same code.
    The example above is number 19 from 20.
    This works fine on tablets and larger displays.
    When I wish to show it on an Iphone or similar, with a display that is 480 or less wide, I need to scale the larger photo down to 300 wide.
    As the Iphone will have a lower quality of image than a larger display, it will not matter too much if the 600x400 photo is scaled down, and having tried it by giving it an ID with CSS like
    #imagescale{ width:300px; } it looks acceptable. However, as IDs are supposed to be unique, then thats a no go area for the remaining photos.
    My problem is how do I select the second image source shown in bold above, and scale it and the span text by 50%.
    The text is not too important as it can be changed to fit - the image is the main problem.
    I need someting like "if the display is less than 600 and the image is in the pics directory, display it at 300 wide".
    The browser will hopefully  take care of the height.
    Any suggestiosn would be appreciated.

    Thanks Nancy. The general idea and the link to the article helped a lot.
    However, the css using using a percentage had unpredictable results when selecting repeated images.
    The first one scales to 50% and then the next scales to 50% of the last one (25%)  and so on ad infinitum, unless you click on another object that is not an image.
    Using a pixel size like 280px rather than a percentage did the trick, but it also involved changing lots of other items before I could get everything to fit.
    Now I have a better knowledge of media queries and how to set them up.
    Best of all, all my image galleries work fine just using css and html. Never thought that would happen.
    Take five stars!
    And the same to David Powers for his great article.

    I am rebuilding my iTunes library, but still have all the old content on my iPod Classic.  I have just download some songs from the iStore and want to add them to the iPod, BUT when I try to sync it asks if I want to delete all content from the iPod and add only the material that I have just downloaded from the Store.  I do not want to lose my old content, because it is very extensive.

    You are trying to sync to other than the one iTunes library you can sync to. You can copy music from multiple library/computer if you use the manual method of syncing. That method is described here
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
    If you want to make this computer/iTunes library your syncing computer/library you have to restore the iPod on this computer/library. Restoring erases the iPod.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
