Blackberry or other device
I have a friend who has a PalmOne Tungsten T5 and a cell phone (LG VX8300)
with Verizon. He was thinking of getting a Blackberry instead of 2 devices.
We live in Jackson Hole Wyoming (we don't have many options to carriers)
Is there another device that would be blackberry like that might serve his needs?
He only has a pop mail account, might use a calendar, will used address book extensively and phone.
I am doing some research for him and Blackberry right now seems to have lots of problems (according to this forum)
thanks! Laura
Hi, so all the listed blackberry chat fuction are only for people using blackberry right?
If want to chat with people with other device like computer, will have to download program like beejive or webmessager.
Pls correct me if I understand this wrong. Thanks!!

Hello Chrissie24,
Welcome to the forums.
Try not having your device plugged in while you are searching for the application and then when it asks for you to connect your device then connect it via USB.

Bluetooth sharing from other devices to blackberry
hi team, i kind of find it difficult transfering data through bluetooth from other devices to blackberry even though the two devices are paired. when doing the transfer from the blackberry to the other devices, it works but not the other way round, any solutions?
waiting.Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
See this KB:
KB05409 Transfer a file using Bluetooth technology between two BlackBerry smartphones
Substitute, in the KB, the appropriate instructions for your other device in place of the KB section for the sending device. Unless you are on BB OS 6, do not skip the "Receive Using BT" step on the receiving BB...nothing will transfer if you do.
Good luck and let us know!

How should i share file with other devices such as nokia,blackberry and etc using bluetooth
I want to share files between other deivce such as nokia but couldnt, could u help me tell how can i share files with other devices???
@AKRBTN: Thanks for the reply and info.
That is a solution, but it really isn't viable.
It is sad that apple refuses to support this.
A simple example: Sitting somewhere with no signal and you want to share a file (photo) with your colleague or friend, who happens to be right next to you.
Or even if there is signal and you don't want to be paying fees or data charges.
Or you may be in a rehearsal studio and need to share that very important file and have no time to go outside and get signal and try to send the file, which then everyone else has to go outside and catch the signal and pay fees.
Anyway, I see that this is a dead end with apple, so I guess I will be back to carrying 2 phones around again.
Peace,

Keep getting 'do I want to connect to BT unrestricted network' which I have never used before. I can get my ISP details input but get message 'incorrect password' even though it works with 3 other devices. My network provider, Virgin Media, sent an engineer but he couldn't solve the problem - said network was all ok so problem must be with my iMac (OSX 10.4.11). When I try to use internet I get BTWiFi is current wireless network - I've never used this! I've tried to change this and virgin media details are accepted, it's just the password stage that prevents me from connecting. I am not very knowledgeable with computers so I really need a step by step guide to solve this problem. PLEASE HELP!!!
Excuse me barging in on the thread, but I have a lot of experience with Telus, and roaming with my BlackBerry (currently a Z10). In short, you've been fed some outdated info by the Telus rep. Telus has become very Android-centric, and it seems like a good number of Telus CSR's are still reading from a Legacy BlackBerry trouble-shooting guide.
My Z10 is unlocked, and I periodically use an AT&T sim when traveling in the US. I have never had to change an email setting to get full email function -- including the SMTP settings. To put it simply, your device first connects to a network using credentials provided. At most hotels, for instance, your device will scan for and pick up a WiFi network. The hotel will tell you the WiFi network name and give you a password to use. You simply enter the password when prompted, then you may have to agree to certain conditions. That's it.
Your email settings are just that. Using whichever network to which you are connected, the user name and password give you access. The settings coincide with the email provider's server settings. These don't typically change with the location from which you are connecting.
I'd suggest you take a look at this very helpful email settings tool provided by BlackBerry, if you are having difficulty: http://helpblog.blackberry.com/2013/03/email-account-validation-tool/
It helps you determine the possible settings for connecting to your email provider. Different providers offer different connection options, sometimes more than one. Opinions vary, but my preference in descending order is: ActiveSync, IMAP, then POP if required. ActiveSync (aka EAS) and IMAP will offer 2-way sync.
Take a look at the tool and pop a message back here if you have any questions. Good luck. ~ecm -

IPad interfering with other devices wifi
Is there any fix to this problem?
I have a 64gb wifi only iPad.
When it's wifi is turned on, my 3DS and blackberry cannot connect to the wifi network.
When I turn my iPads wifi off, they can.
Various other devices seem unaffected (iPhone, iPod, MacBook, pc, ps3, wii.)
Just the blackberry and 3DSWith no details on what networking equipment you have (make, model, and version) or how your network is configured it is difficult to comment on what is causing this problem.

My World - Other devices - unavailable for this device message
All -
My carrier recently replaced my device (9930) due to a hardware problem. I was able to reinstall all my applications via My World with the exception of one. This application is called "Popup" by Vixso. This application is listed under other devices and it says that its unavailable for this device. My replacement device is also a 9930. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
I already tried holding down the ALT key and then pressing, in sequence R, then S, then T. This did not help.
Thanks in advance!
LiveLongThe on-device catalog is designed to filter out anything that is not available specifically to you (based on device model, OS, country availability, etc.). But, you can look at the full catalog via PC/browser, as long as you don't log into your BB ID/AW account on the PC. Both versions can be found there:
The full version:
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/59942/?lang=en
The free/promo version:
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/83050/?lang=en
From what I can see, neither is available in the USA.

How do I sync Game Center games progress with my other devices?

My daughers ipod can not connect to wifi. ALl other devices in our house do, so I am not sure if this one ahs been dropped too mnay times. All settings are fine, as I manage all the other devices, so I know it is an issue with this ipod.
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

In Icloud on my imac I can't see my "numbers" icon which i need to select "tick" to transfer data to my other devices via icloud. any ideas why it's not showing up?
You have to do it app wise, which means that the icon won't show up in settings, but you will be able to move files from your local drive to iCloud via the Numbers app (move... > choose the iCloud option).
It requires that you set up the same iCloud account on all your devices and that you have the latest version of Numbers on all your devices as well. -
Hi Apple Team, my iphone can't share bluetooth files with my macbook pro. But other devices can share bluetooth files with my mac book pro. Please, kindly open up bluetooth to accept all connections from all devices. Now it difficult for me to share bluetooth files from my mac bookpro to my iphone, unless i attached it through email.
We need it to be acceptable to all devices.
Thank you!You can tell Apple directly at the link below.

I have an iMac 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5 with 16 GB memory and 1.12 TB storage running Yosemite 10.10.1 & Outlook 2011 for Mac. For a while, sent emails went to a sent folder on the iMac so I have a collection of sent emails there. I have attempted to move those sent emails from the iMac to my email server (IMAP), but without success. Is there a way to move them to a sent box on my server so I can see them on other devices? Many thanks for any help you can provide.
Go to: Apple > System Preferences > Universal Access and in the Seeing tab make sure that the Display Enhance contrast: is set to Normal.
Alternatly, try holding the ⌃⌥⌘ (control command alt) keys and then pressing the , (comma) key a few times. -
May be this question has been asked thousand times. how do I use my mid 2011 iMac ( with thunderbolt) as external monitor for laptop/Xbox or other device with hdmi as output. if apple hasn't removed that feature and has just moved that functinoality to thunderbolt then how can I use it. currently there is no laptop available with thunderbolt output. no 3rd party converter available. whats the use of having feature on latest functionality if we cant use it. I wish they would have made one port has mini-dvi and other thunderbolt for backward compatibility untill some vendor comes up with converter.
It Says :
Mac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011) and iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) and later computers support Target Display Mode via Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable (2 m) when the source is another Thunderbolt-equipped computer.
Name one computer model/vendor which has thunderbolt as output for display + audio. this is so stupid to move to new technology without availbility of its compatible devices.
