but.. i did manage to get wifi sharing to work after wasting an hour of my life.
but this solution isn't ideal, i'm wasting bandwidth transfering movie/music files when i don't have to. its also slow.
this isn't an isoluted issue, rim fudged up and they haven't even bothered trying to fix the problem.
as to all those ppl who say their playbook is awesome. yeah me too. no issues, until now. it only takes one time to annoy the **bleep** out of you.
this problem isnt some random problem, its a systematic problem at RIM, and its the reason why no one if buying their phones and the company is going in the crapper.
i was actually looking forward to the Blackberry 10, and possibly even going back to blackberry from android, but this sole issue has made me lose confidence in this company.
Perhaps if you were nice and cut out all the insults someone knowledgeable might come in this thread and help you.
You're ranting about RIM in every single thread. Lost at Sea has been kind to assist, I don't see others attracted to your vile posts, so clean it up, and good luck with it all.
Otherwise, suffer at your own bad attitude.

Is Blackberry going to support syncing Installed Outlook 2013 + using Windows 8 +?

There are many threads and posts about the fact that Blackberry does not currently (April 2015) support syncing contacts and calendar items from Outllook 2013 (installed version at least). My experience with this is with Windows 8.1.
I can copy my .PST files to my laptop which run Windows 7 and Outlook 2010 and it syncs fine there.
I have the same current release of Desktop Software which installs Link for Windows 1.2.4. on both machines.
I would like some daylight on this issue. Does Blackberry intend to support this or not? I really like my Passport but IT IS MANDATORY THAT I BE ABLE TO SYNC MY OUTLOOK. I am a consultant and not on a corporate exchange service. Cleints send me invites to meetings etc. which populate my Desktop Outlook. I must be able to sync those and the contacts with my Blackberry Passport.
The Windows phones sync with Outlook just fine and in fact have an Outlook application installed. I am thinking about switching.

Well, I can't speak to your concerns about BB Management, nor about your desire for them to respond here. While they to from time to time post here, it's rare and should never be expected...the charter of this site is clear about what to expect.

You had asked specifically about PC-based synchronization, this might be of use:
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/deliverables/60798/tom1359418099212.jsp
I do not know if that matches your configuration or not, but that's the official information we have available.
You did not originally ask about OTA sync, which is why I did not address that...but that indeed does work...refer:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/How-To-OTA-Sync-BB10-and-non...
There are I am sure many other threads that might be of interest to you, so a few minutes searching might reveal information that you desire. You might even find someone else with your exact configuration, and has it working...I don't know, for I shifted to OTA sync exclusively (I use both Hotmail as well as GMail for contacts and calendar).
Good luck!

Camera On My Blackberry Goes Green When Taking A Picture

Okay So I try to take a picture on my phone, and you can see fine, the camera works and you see everything through it but when I take a picture it takes a long time to load and then it shows that it took the picture but when it is going to save my screen goes green.
Has this happened to anyone? Can someone help me please?

I am having the same problem. My camera worked fine since I had it, then suddenly the same green screen every time the picture saves. I have no memory problems with my phone and have no downloaded any new apps.
***Update***
Don't know if this was the problem or not, but I recently removed some unwanted programs from my phone. A free hangman game as well as some others (All free games downloaded from the bb app store). They were removed after I found out my phone camera wasn't working for other reasons. I just checked my camera again to show my wife the prob and now it works!

Is Blackberry going to die a slow and painful death?

I am an avid Blackberry user, with my Torch 9800 bridged to my 64gig Playbook, and I love all of the functionality and uses that they have.
The trouble is that I am sick of seeing all of these apps that are only made for iPhone,iPad, and Android devices, while Blackberry is left at the wayside.
It`s almost like the Blackberry line of products is on Life support with a DNR order and someone waiting to pull the plug.

I don't think so (you asked for opinion, right, not facts?).
So, can you name five apps on iPad and Android that you don't have.. that you must have? And 5,000 flatulating apps don't count.
I don't see it on life support at all. There's a great article here you might read:

When is Blackberry going to care about the Playbook???

I got my Playbook last week and I am already frustrated by the limitations. First, the apps available are few and the quality of those that are available is less than stellar - and they are all paid! I could almost over look the lackluster apps if the Playbook worked with websites. Since there aren't apps, I have tried unsuccessfully to access the content on the Comcast/Xfinity, Showtime, Kindle Cloud Reader and countless others only to see that hundreds of other devices are supported but not Blackberry Playbook.
Now, I get that not everything is work and be perfect but as I searched for solutions to basic problems (ie. simple Kindle app for Playbook), I kept seeing the same answer from Blackberry/RIM: it's coming "very soon" - but here's the thing, those "answers" were from late 2011 and throughout 2012. It is now 2013 and the promised "very soon" solutions are still not here! What does "very soon" mean to Blackberry because other technology is passing you by at lightning speed while you make excuses?
Blackberry doesn't seem interested in keeping their promises or their customers and they definitely don't seem interested in moving the Playbook forward since it feels like they have given up on it.

We own a fair number of PlayBooks (PB). They are great for business and for having high security on then net. There are games, media, and entertainment software for it, but this is not its strong point.
We use our PB devices for some scientific, business, and financial management. A lot of what we do is browser based. It is great for high secure email. It's built in email client by default checks for the user's email provider server's security cirtificate. It will warn the user if the cirtificate is not valid or expired.
The PB can bridge to the BB phone so, it works as if it was part of the phone. With the HDMI adabter we can connect it to a large screen display to give presentations. We found it has excellent quality for its media output.
When buying a PB, it is important to realize that you are getting a very strong business type reliable tablet that can provide a high level of security.

Help Needed Badly | BlackBerry INC000025111306 | BlackBerry PlayBook - Tablet button does not work, almost stuck, copper under screen, seventh repair

I was really Humilitated my RIM on this Ticket whcih i rasied.
1) I bought a new tablet in last november in 2 months i had a Charger issue
2) They said this charger issue we cannot replace with new tablet and gave me a refurbished Tablet to me .
3) Which also had same charging issue and they exchanged 2 more tablets and the last tablet which was given to me by RIM have a safety concern
- 1 Small mesh of wire is poping out from the Tablet
- Power Button is very hard and its not that easy to press,
So i raised the above ticket and was esclated internally with RMA as well and i got an update from the esclation agents that we will reply back in 2 Days i waited almost 3 weeks and called 2 times in this 3 weeks for an Update asking for a new tablet so that atleast once in all i can jeep a good 1 Tablet.
But they never bothered to call me and today i called them again and RIM gave me a call back mentioning we cannot give a new tablet we can again check this tablet repair it and give it back , If we cannot repir then give a replacement new/Old tablet,
I was wondering how can a tablet from RIM can go out without such safety concern ? How a mesh of wire can comeout of tablet so what safety norms RIM is follwoing for customer.
AM i not humilitated? since after taking all these struggle tto get a good tablet i have been considered as bad.
What RIM have to say for this, I am planing to take this to Legal department to follow how i can get a justice for this.

I would have deleted this but can't find a delete?
At any rate. got the Blackberry going again but it reset it and lost all the info, pictures and so forth.. oh well. at least it is still working.
Thanks.

Blackberry restarting problem

Hi, I am using Blackberry Z10 for last three months. I am finding a lot of bugs in various functionalities. Recently my phone got a strange problem like I was not able to open any application. If I tab on any icon, the screen just moves left to right like it is scrolling. So I tried to restart the device. It took approximately 20 minutes to restart, in fact it is still restarting as I write this. I am not sure whether there is any hardware problem in my device. Why is my device disappointing me always. When is Blackberry going to resolve my problems. It also hangs very often. I am finding lot of problems in the basic fuctionalities. I hope you can understand how much I am flustrated with my Blackberry Z10. Please give me a valid solution.

You can first try to reset the phone by holding the power button down for 10 seconds. This only resets the phone and no data loss will occur. Should that not help consider the options below.

Questions about Tour Updates? goes to Blank Screen and resets ???

I have a question about my Blackberry tour Updating...
I seem to notice my blackberry goes to a blank screen and a clock icon appears in the middle and goes around and around for about 10 minutes, what is this

I'm having the same problem, except it's been half an hour and the da*& thing won't start up. This is BAD.

Playbook stuck in update mode

Hello all.. need help badly!
Was in the process of adding blackberry desktop to a new computer (Windows 8); program went in fine but the Playbook was still connected and now it says that the playbook is not finished downloading its program and does not show that it can connect to PC?.
The PC says this "Setup hasn't been completed for the connected Blackberry Playbook Tablet. Disconnect your device and finish setting it up (or complete setup) then reconnect it to your computer."
It is stuck in the pick country mode but I can't pick a country because the keyboard does not work and there is no options on the drop down menu.
The Playbook has a Blue setup screen with "Agrreement" on the top. then a blank Country Box with blank drop down. Then it says "Unable to display the Blackberry ID Agreement. Please select your Country and language then try again"
It is definitely stuck in this screen.. tried restarting in different button configurations but it is stuck no matter what is done.. Does this need to go back to Blackberry or would some tech or do you have a miracle way to fix?
Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Jeff

Syncing with Outlook, faulty and unsuccessful

I have read through some of the posts, and apologize if I missed one with the same problem I am having. I was disappointed getting my Z10 initially when I wasn't able to sync with my outlook Calendar and Contacts. However, that was quickly changed and is available on Link now. However, I have a number of issues with it. At the risk of putting too much detail, I have tried different settings for the sync, using the device as the main or the computer as the main source. I have the latest version of Link, and have removed and reinstalled that software. I also bought a new laptop a couple weeks ago, and attempted on this machine, only to have the same problems. so here is a list of the issues I continue to have.
Calendar:
The most recent attempt, some of the data off my outlook calendar made it to my z10 but none of the information on my z10 went to the outlook calendar.
Contacts.
Creates duplicates of some contacts on both z10 and computer
removed email addresses.. to do this, it created a duplicate address in my z10 than kept only that duplicate with incomplete information in the outlook contact file
Crossed information between two contacts with similar names.
In some of the contacts again on both z10 and computer, created a duplicate of information inside the contact itself, without creating a duplicate contact. ( ie, if contact had two phone numbers and 2 email addresses, it now has duplicates showing 4 phone numbers and 4 emails,... other information also duplicated inside the contact)
Before I got the z10 I was able to flawlessly sync between my phone my playbook and my outlook file on my laptop. My current issues don't even address the lack of sync between the playbook and outlook now.
are these issues others have seen or experienced. Is it operator error or is there a bug somewhere.
Thanks in advance for any and all help

I have the same problem with Q10 I just purchased this last week. Blackberry Link is the worst application I have used. Is Blackberry going to do anything about it? They should if they want to increase their sales, if the product is not working it puts a bad light on Blackberry. Please Blackberry do something, I want to see your success!!! THe current Blackberry LINK still has alot of bugs that MUST be fixed.....
1. Performance very very slow hours to process
2. incorrect or duplicated entries 3. unable to update both device and outlook, no choices
4. unable to sync task and memos.

Hi i keep downloading the same song twice on different things, these collections and regular albums are confusing...i lost all my media and trying to get it back and now 2 of the same song is up...why cant support be a little helpful?

is Apple going bankrupt again, they seem to not wanna be bothered, is there a way to EMAIL, im not into calling and it says my calls have expired....why cant Apple be a little helpful, im a little upset with them and wanna throw my ipod touch across the room - i dont want 2 of the same songs anymore, i dont wanna be charged twice these bands are making it very difficult to remember the last album i had this stuff on....i dont know my music anymore it keeps changing

Perhaps, if you stop ranting - and stop typing in capitals (which is regarded as shouting), then you may get somewhere. But since I'm so nice...
A good place to start for help is here, in these discussions and then proceed by explaining the probelm clearly.
Let's start by crossing out anything that isn't relevant:
is Apple going bankrupt again, they seem to not wanna be bothered, is there a way to EMAIL, im not into calling and it says my calls have expired....why cant Apple be a little helpful, im a little upset with them and wanna throw my ipod touch across the room - i dont want 2 of the same songs anymore, i dont wanna be charged twice these bands are making it very difficult to remember the last album i had this stuff on....i dont know my music anymore it keeps changing
So, are we to assume that a band you like, produce albums with songs on them that you already have, on other albums?
If so, that's down to the band, not Apple. The only answer to that is that you should check for yourself whether you already have a particular song and if you do, don't buy it again. However, you should also consider that buying the full album (with a song you don't want) may be cheaper than buying the individual songs that you do want.

How to use iPhone 4S in Europe as an iPod... without Airplane Mode?

So this is actually for a friend who has an iPhone 4S and is going to Amsterdam this summer. She wants to bring her iPhone to use it for reading preloaded eBooks and listen to her music. Now she is TERRIFIED of incurring international data charges. She wants a foolproof method to disable it's service without using Airplane Mode. She is afraid she will be out drinking one night and accidentally turn Airplane Mode off or restart her phone and it's turned off as it powers up and as her apps update she goes bankrupt. She also still wants to be able to use WiFi when she is out there.
Now I was thinking she could replace her activated SIM card with an unactivated one from AT&T (her carrier). I am just concerned about a couple things.
First since the iPhone is activated will it freak out on her when she inserts this unactivated SIM card.
Second will she have to restore it before inserting the SIM card?
Third will she be able to connect it to iTunes to add music or perform a restore if something should happen to it out there?
Or if the SIM card trick is a no-go, what other ways are there to foolproof deactivate her phone?
Any help or ideas you could give me to pass along to her would be great. She was actually on her way to buy a new ipod and an ereader when she told me and I stopped her in her tracks. I had a European buddy come HERE and buy an unactivated iPhone and wanted to use it as an iPod and we did this SIM card trick but I don't know if it translates to Activated to Unactivated.

Just take out the sim card. If the iPhone is unlocked, she won't have to worry about charges.
