BlackBerry Messanger contact not adding

I have BlackBerry Messanger 4.5.0 on my Blackberry pearl 8130.  I have not been using BBM very long but up until now I have had no problems.  for adding contacts in BBM i have been adding people my self but when other people started adding me (they were putting in my PIN into their BBM) i have started to have problems.
I have had at least 2 people request to add me as a contact and I have accepted their request but then they don't appear on my contact list.  when i open the request message it reads " From: (the person's PIN)   (the person's name) would like to add you to his or her Blackberry Messanger Contact List" and the options are to Accept, Decline, Remove or Cancel.  I pressed Accept and it confirms it but then that person doesn't appear on my contact list in BBM.  why is this? do i have to add them myself as well for them to appear on my contact list?
thanks

    Do you know how your contacts are loaded to your device, are they all locally saved, or are they synced via an email account such as yahoom, gmail or outlook,.com?

  • Outlook contact not added Email do not show all information i Lync 2013 Client

    I have seen if no Email address is added into contact personen I only get emty Card of user i Lync 2013.
    When I add Email adr. into contact person and wait a littel then user get all information right i Lync 2013 user Card.
    IS this right or should it also showing user and all information from Outlook contact Card into lync 2013 client Card?

    Lync aggregates contact data from Microsoft Exchange GAL, Outlook and Microsoft Lync Server.
    So you can see information from outlook in Lync user card.

  • Blackberry Messenger Contacts Not Working

    Hi I recently bought my blackberry curve 8520 from Phones4u on Orange and put in my old Orange simcard from my old phone. I have updated bbm but whenever I add someone it is constantly pending and whoever I sent it to does not get a request, also no one can send me a request. Is this something to do with needing a blackberry data plan because I don't know if I have one or how to get one if I don't! This is not a one-off because my friend recently bought the EXACT same phone from Phones4u on Orange and they are having the exact same problem, however they kept the new simcard in. Please help!

    Welcome to the forums.
    Do you have  BlackBerry data plan on your line?  You must have a BlackBerry data plan and not any other type of data plan to use BBM.

  • Why do my recently added contacts not show up in contacts list, but show up as contacts in a global search of my iphone?

    I have an iPhone 3gs
    I suspect that its not just newly created contacts that don't show up in my contacts list, but contacts I added through text message or missed calls. Again, they show up as contacts when I search my iphone for their name. I have never backed up my contacts from any of my mail accounts (people said they were having problem with exchange, and I recently deleted my exchange account). I am not using MobileMe.
    When I sync with iTunes, and select Sync Address Book Contacts, I have "All Contacts" selected. The option to select "Selected Groups" is grayed out.
    When I look at my groups in my Contacts list App, I am viewing under "All Contacts". There are no other group options.
    This is a very annoying problem has anyone officially had it solved??

    You can, but it's a bit involved and requires using an app.  Probably not worth it for only 5 contacts.  If you're interested in how you would do this, you would do the following:
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer you will need the “Pro” version.)  Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from the other accounts) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section) and set this to iCloud.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars…tap each of the other accounts you are syncing contacts with and turn off contacts syncing with these accounts (otherwise you will see duplicate contacts on your device).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the other accounts back to your device, and to iCloud.

  • My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

    My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

    Norton is probably the issue. It can really screw things up, that is one reason I never use it. See if you can temporarily disable it and then try the sync and see if that works.
    On a Mac, there is a way to run a program that repairs permissions for the user, not a Windows thing.

  • 1 January 1970 appears in my contacts as duplications even though I have not added this myself, is this a virus? What should I do?

    1 January 1970 appears in my contacts as a duplication even though I have not added them myself, is this a virus? What should I do?

    In my contacts, several contacts that I actually know have been duplicated using only the first name in this duplication. Also in the duplication, the birthday and  anniversary are listed as 1 January 1970. I have not made these duplications...they have just appeared. Does this mean I have a virus? And if I do what should I do? 

  • Adding Blackberry Messenger Contacts

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to add Blackberry Messenger contacts to my new Blackberry 8330.  When I select "add a contact" - it brings me to my address book - I then highlight the person I want - and I select "send to messenger contacts" - and then a "select a contact" window pops up and says "empty"  It won't let me add anyone - does not ask for the contacts e-mail address or anything.  What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks for any help you can provide

  • Synching contact with Gmail adding contacts not in Gmail address book

    I am using Gmail as default email. When I synch my iPhone 3G to update the contacts, I am getting addresses that are not on my calendar list in Gmail. These phantom emails appearing are addresses that I sent email to but typed in their addresses manually. They are not coming from Gmail's contact list directly.
    Is there a way to stop this strange behavior and only synch the info in my Gmail contacts list?
    Thanks in advance.

    When new contacts are added, they are added to whatever account is set to the default. 
    To add a contact to another group:
    Select Contacts
    Select Groups.
    Turn off contacts for all but the account desired to add the contact to.
    Select Done.
    Add the new contact.
    Select Groups.
    Turn on all contact groups.
    Annoying, but it works.

  • Blackberry Z10 Contact names not showing on incoming calls

    My blackberry Z10 is not showing the contact names when I receive an incoming call. My country code also correctly selected. Contacts are not duplicated also. But contacts without the leading 0 is showing

    Hi mhusni,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community.
    When using the country code included in the phone number field of contacts, you may not be able to see contact names on incoming calls even though the country code is correct.
    This KB article may provide more information. "Caller ID does not show associated contact when country code is included in phone number" http://blackberry.com/btsc/KB33685

  • I reported to Austin Police Department about my unlocked iphone was stolen last week. I'm ****** off that Serial number of my stolen iphone is on another Apple ID.   IMEI still is not added into blacklist.  How can I contact to Apple Inc??

    I don't understand why Austin Police are not doing to detain theft when I showed an location with valid address according Find my iPhone on icloud.com.  They said that it might be wrong location but few blocks were correct location. I stopped at Apple Retail Store to get another unlocked iphone. I explained an employee whether they would add both IMEI and serial number into blacklist to make useless for anyone. They said they have nothing to doing. 
    I'm shocked today that IMEI number is still not added into blacklist. Serialnumber of my stolen iphone is already on another Apple ID, after restoring it.
    They let me down because unlocked iphone is EXPENSIVE, it costs $800 in Canada.
    How can I deal with Apple Inc to add both serial number and IMEI into blacklist UNTIL i get my stolen iphone back

    What blacklist? There is no universal blacklist in the US. They're working on it, but it does not exist as of this writing.
    Apple can't do anything about it. They are not a law enforcement agency.

  • How do i accept a request from pin blackberry messanger

    i had a request for the blackberry messenger service which a friend sent but nothing has come on the program to accept he enter my pin number in the add a contact and i not recieved anything also i done same to his pin and its showing as pending
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    First make sure that you can send back and forth PIN to PIN messages to each other.
    When they add you as a contact you'll get a message that someone wants to add you as a contact and that you need to approve it.
    To add a contact to the BlackBerry Messenger Contacts list, complete the following:
    On the BlackBerry smartphone, open BlackBerry Messenger.
    Display the menu and click Add a Contact. The Select Address screen appears.Add a contact from your address book by clicking the contact name. Or, add a new contact by selecting Use Once, entering the contact email address and clicking the trackwheel. The contact email address is added.
    Display the menu and select Request Email<user_name>. The Add a Message screen appears.
    Click OK. The Add a Message is sent to the contact. You may customize this invitation before sending it. The contact is added to your contact list once the invitation is accepted.
