Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
See this for reference:
http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/What_do_I_need_a_Data_Plan_for%3F
With hundreds of carriers in the world each with dozens of different data plans, it's impossible for us to answer what services you should or should not have. But, typically, Pay-Go plans don't include the services you are attempting to use. But, only your carrier can answer for sure. Contact them.
Good luck!

BlackBerry Messenger and Mac

My Father has a blackberry and he sent me a link to download the blackberry messenger so we can talk via my computer and his blackberry, but you can only download it with internet explorer, and I don't have that on my Mac, obviously, so does anyone know any other way to get that same program, or one that will work, on my computer?

Maybe I'm not understanding this correctly but from what I get Blackberry Messenger is a IM client for the phone itself and not a chat client for the computer. You however will need IE on Windows because it uses Active-X controls.
Your Father should be able to install it directly to the Blackberry (by choosing the correct client you want to use as a chat platform ie. Yahoo, Google Talk, AOL etc.).
At least that's what I understand it to be. It's for his phone. You shouldn't have to download anything unless you want to use a chat client you don't already have.
Correct me if I'm wrong though.

BlackBerry PlayBook and Internet Explorer?

I am a small business owner and Mac user. My business, however, uses a website that works only with Internet Explorer. In the past I have needed to have a small notebook PC in order to access the site and it is time to get a new computer.
I really would like to check out the new BlackBerry PlayBook and will definitely buy one tomorrow (or Tuesday?) IF it is possible to use IE on it! I really don't want to spend the money for a PC which would be used only for one purpose (I use my iMac for all other computer needs and my BlackBerry 9780 Bold for a phone. Microsoft stopped supporting Macs after version 5 or 6 of IE so that is the ONLY reason I have a PC.)
Oh please please PLEASE tell me that IE will be compatible with the new tablet!?
Anybody know? If not, might as well get an iPad -AND a new notebook PC -AND a new iMac, right?

Do you know why ? There are only two reasons:
either the website uses ActiveX scripts, and in that case you are out of luck
or the webmaster is simply lazy to convert the website to the W3 and ECMA standards, and in that case you can try and convince them. Once that is done, your website will work on any browser including Safari, Opera, MozillaFirefox and InternetExplorer.

Internet Explorer is currently available for Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Windows Mobile, excluding all other operating systems.

Were these services working before? Have you contacted your wireless provider to verify you have the correct BlackBerry® data plan enabled for your device?
Thanks

Why can't I open my BlackBerry Messenger?

I'm having this problem with my BlackBerry. I don't know why I can't open my BlackBerry Messenger. I've tried to plugged out the battery and put it back in but still, I can't open my BlackBerry Messenger. So I did it repeatedly but I can't still open my BlackBerry Messenger. I read all about it on the internet and all they suggested is to back-up the BlackBerry Messenger contacts and upgrade the BlackBerry Messenger. I'd like to do that but how can I back-up my BlackBerry Messenger contacts when I can't even open my BlackBerry Messenger? So I tried downloading the BlackBerry Desktop Software. I connect my phone to it and I clicked on "Back up now". And now it's saved in my documents. But my question is, now that (I think) I've backed up all of my data, can I delete my BlackBerry Messenger and install/upgrade it and still have all my contacts? PLEASE REPLY ASAP.

I can't open my bbm. Each time try to open it it says bbm has been blocked. I Delete it and redownload it and open it. But change at all. Please and losing my friends. Please help me.You need to resolve that part...reloading the app and trying nothing else does nothing to solve why it has been blocked at the servers. I recommend you try this...
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRTKB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless networkPlease wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app2) Delete and Resend Service BooksKB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphoneIf you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletionKB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet ServicePlease wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.3) RebootWith power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support...only they can look at their network to determine why it's not properly communicating with your device.
Good luck!

My BBM and internet is not working???

Hi , I just bought a Blackberry Curve 9300 of an indivigual yesterday..The phone is unlocked to all networks but for some reason i can not connect it to the internet. I have registered the phone with my network company (vodafone) but still it wont connect to the net. It connects to the internet fine via wifi.. & Apparently according because of this , this is why my bbm is also not working.
Help will be much appreciated

Hey itzjkb,
Welcome to the forums.
Are you still having the issues with BlackBerry Messenger and the Browser? The Browser issues could be service book related? You may have to contact your service provider to have them send you theses service book? When you try to use BlackBerry Messenger are you getting an error message? What happens when you try to use BlackBerry Messenger?

BlackBerry Messenger - Share Prompts

Hello All,
Sorry if this has been answered before (i have done quite extensive searching on it).
Awhile ago I installed the new BlackBerry Messenger and created a group. I am also using NotifyLink to import my calendar from work into my bb calendar. However, everytime a new even comes in bb messenger prompts me if i would like to share this item with the group.
Some times there are 20 or more items that come in.
My question is there anyway to turn this so called "feature" off?
Thank You

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!!
I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your wireless service provider for formal support.

Blackberry Messenger Pictures

Hi, i recently got the new curve 9320 and updated my blackberry messenger and after resetting my phone all my bbm contacts display pictures are blank and when shortly before they all had pictures, i have no idea how to get their pictures back and how to get y picture to appear. any solutions?

Sorry, no, it can't be.
There's a correlation between the amount of device memory on a device and amount of Group pictures saved. Your's is 40.
Newer devices like the Storm2 and 9700 will save 80.
