Thanks for reaching out! 
This is a hoax message, especially since that isn't even our CFO so I would recommend deleting the message.

  • Accidentally Moved Blackberry Messenger Into Wrong Folder - How Do I Move Back?

    Hi Guys, I accidentally moved Blackberry Messenger into the SMS and MMS Folder instead of just moving the icon around.
    Please advise how I move it out of this folder and back to the Home Screen?
    Thanks,
    PETER

    Scroll to the icon > press the Menu key > Move to Folder > and choose which one you would like it put in, Home Screen, if that is where you want it.

  • Blackberry messenger 5.0.0.33 - options to send pics or file or voice note is not available

    I updated the blackberry messenger from the pre-loaded version 4.7.1 to the latest version of 5.0.0.33.  I was able to send pictures, voice note, and file during a chat session by clicking the trackball to bring up the menu and click "send voice note" or "send picture".  This option is no longer there in the 5.0.0.33 even though the user manual indicate this function is there.
    Anyone has the same problem?  Where can I download the previous version (4.7.1 for tour) and how to re-install the previous version of the blackberry messenger?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    You have not updated to the current BBM version...you are on an old version. The current version is 5.0.0.57...
    Good luck!

    hello,
    please read the following article from the public knowledge base:
    KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after buying a previously owned BlackBerry smartphone
    The previous owner of the device has linked his device to his carrier. In the article, in step 2 of the "seller" part he is supposed to have released the PIN of the device, so that you can link that PIN to your own carrier.
    You need to contact the previous owner and ask them to do step 2.
    The search box on top-right of this page is your true friend, and the public Knowledge Base too:

  • Where Can I Find The "Set Alert" Feature in Blackberry Messenger 5.0

    Hello,
    I just upgraded my Blackberry Messenger from version 4.5 to 5.0.0.57 on my Curve 8310.  However, in BB Messenger 5.0, I cannot figure out how to turn on the "set alert" feature that is available in BB Messenger 4.5  The "set alert" features allows you to know when an instant message has been read by the person you sent it to.  This is an invaluable feature for me (and I believe for many other), hence I cannot believe BlackBerry removed this feature in BB Messenger 5.0.
    Any help regarding this topic is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.
    Nawaab

    Hello,
    Honestly, I've never seen a setting for that. But, even with no such setting, I see the receipts just fine in all 1:1 conversations. Group conversations, however, don't show receipts -- and I don't recall any prior version showing such for groups.
    Good luck!

    OK, that is almost the latest version... .65 is later.
    You can upgrade your AppWorld from using your BlackBerry browser to go to www.blackberry.com/appworld
    After you upgrade, Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
    IF then you don't see or can't find the AppWorld icon, please post back here.

    Use your BlackBerry browser to go to http://blackberry.com/blackberrymessenger and download/install the Messenger application again.
    After installation and possibly another reboot, check your Instant Messaging Folder, or Downloads folder for the application.

    Hello,
    The Email Account Validation Tool may be useful to your situation:
    KB33444 How to use the Email Account Validation Tool (EAVT)
    Note please that this is intended solely for OTA synchronization between your BB and your server...what happens between your server and your MAC is completely a separate matter. On the other hand, if you truly meant to ask about USB sync via LINK, then that's yet another separate matter.

  • Unable to open Blackberry Messenger Conversati​ons

    I can't open my Blackberry Messenger Conversations! When a friend sends me a message, I can the message in my mailbox, but am unable to open it... when I try to open it I'm relocated to the messenger conversation that I last sent my friend, but unable to see/open their response. 
    Also, I'm unable to add any contacts to my BBerry Messenger... when I try to add a contact, I'm taken to my address book. When I try to select a contact to add I do not have the option to "Request by Email" or "Request by PIN." 
    Help! This is so frustrating!
    Thanks so much!!!!!! 

    Hi
    I am getting the same problems as well, although my BBM was working fine up to a week ago when my Blackberry dumped all my messages due to storage overcapacity.  I have resolved this since by deleting unwanted files such as photos.
    Did you get any solutions to this problem as it is annoying as I can only read the last sentence of the conversation?
    Thanks

  • Blackberry Messenger Status Trouble.

    I have the blackberry curve 8520 and my blackberry messenger is the 5.0.0.57 however I can't update my status. I have heard the rumour about having 100 or more contacts but I don't have anywhere near that because I have in total 6 contacts. I have tried restarting my phone but it just continues to show the same thing.
    In Detail:
    When I say I can't update my status, I can't update anything on that page at all.
    Thank you,
    Makedah

    How long has this been occuring?
    I ask, because for the past week or so many users have reported some BBM server issues with delayed messages, etc. Perhaps your issue is tied to that.

  • Help !! Using Blackberry Messenger cross-bord​er

    Help - I am a UK use of a T-Mobile 8310 GPS and am trying to connect via messenger with a friens who is on a Rogers Telecom BB in Canada.  I can add her as a contact, she can send me BB Messenger messages with pics but cannot receive my replies and I cannot initialise conversations.
    Any ideas??
    I have spoken to my carier and they can't help - she has spoken to Rogers - Ditto !!
    There must be a simple solution
    Thanks

    I would recommend doing this...
    1.  Both of you delete the other from your BlackBerry Messenger as a contact.
    2. Remove any open conversation between the two of you either device
    3. Both of you do a full reboot: With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
    4. Confirm that neither of you is listed in the other's BBM contact list and that no open conversation remains.
    5. One of you add the other back as a contact in BlackBerryMessenger... let the other receive and accept the request.
