Considering the purchase of a Curve 8520

Hello,
I'm considering to purchase a BB Curve 8520 but I just wanted to clear up some questions before I do...
Does the BB Curve 8520 download emails automatically?
Does it make a sound (Low or High) when an email is received? (If downloaded automatically)
I've just switched my tariff with O2 to a Blackberry Text & Web package so I'm hoping that is all I need...
(Sorry if I've posted in the wrong forum!)
Thanks in advance!

Yes and yes.
Welcome and good luck with your 8520!

    I am considering the purchase of an iMac or Macbook and want to know whether I can import my iTunes library of  +400 albums from my Windows PC over my Home Network?  300 of these albums have been imported from CD's, so would not want to have to do that again.

    Just copy the entire /Musci/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
    The libraries will be identical (date added, ratings, artwork, etc.).
    You can do this easily over the network.

  • NONE of the buttons on my curve 8520 are working. HELP!

    So, today I pulled out my phone and the screen was black. I took out the battery, put it back in and the LED just kept blinking. I pulled the battery out again and left it for a bit. It turned on, when it turned on my phone was locked. I couldn't press any buttons. No matter what it was, the four buttons on the top row, the trackpad or any of the keys weren't working. My phone still turns on normally but none of the buttons work. 
    I have a Curve 8520.
    Thanks.

    Im having the same problem,Not sure what to do..Good luck

  • The fatal bug of curve 8520

    Hi 
    Engineers of RIM ,
    I think I find a fatal bug with curve 8520 and os 5.0 . Everyone konw bb can synchronize date and time  with base stations , it is very usefull , but lots of stations don't support time synchronizing in china , the problem is that my bb can't make any  telephone call when it  can't synchronize time with base stations ,because it display "sos"...
    I set   >option>date&time>set time ------->manual , but it can't fix my bb .
    So I wonder if I could stop the time syc process manually , maybe that will solve this problem ,can you tell me the name of this process ？
    By the way ,  There is not only me in this trouble but also  my some friends .

  • Considering the purchase a Dell Ultrasharp

    Displays HD resolution.  As a third monitor will I move my canvas to this monitor.  Or their away to get the HD image to display?

    Thanks.

    The XDCAM displays as a slightly shrunken rectangle with incorrect image resolution on the Samsung..
    The HDTV has worked properly in Apple ProRes 1080i60
    I would like to see the XDCAM properly at 1080i60 and feed the signal the way i do with my current Decklink HDMI out.
    I would prefer it no just work like a 3rd monitor and have to drage the canvas to it.  I had been thinking that some how the UlraSharp would work.

  • Purchase advice? Considering the Epson Stylus Photo R3000 Inkjet Printer

    Please advise - we're considering the purchase of the Epson Stylus Photo R3000 Inkjet Printer.
    Replacing an Epson Stylus Photo R1900 after years of frustration due to no support for printing from Illustrator on a Mac. Many others have posted in frustration as well - a common work-around is to save as PDF, then print from PDF. Our work-around involves PrintFab but we would like to remove that element from the equation.
    We have a sizable investment in Epson paper so staying within the Epson family is necessary.
    Also must be able to print at 13x19 inches (Super B) which limits our choices.
    Given all of the above, can anyone advise for or against the R3000?
    Thanks in advance!
    -Chris

    This Apple document says the driver is available for auto-download and install when you add the printer in Print & Scan:
    OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download
    OS X has a new paradigm for getting print drivers.
    Manufacturers give the current driver(s) to Apple to put on its servers.
    OS X keeps an "index" of where to find drivers (whether on the server or already installed on your Mac), and when you Add the printer in Print & Scan prefs, or on demand in the print dialog, OS X finds and uses the driver.
    No need to download and install anything yourself.
    If your Mac says it can't find the driver, you can force CUPS (OS X's print system) to re-build the index of drivers (both online and already installed drivers) by Resetting Printing System:
    OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
    If you're still not getting it working, you can download and install all the epson drivers from:
    Epson Printer Drivers v2.18 for OS X
    (you may still need to Reset Printing in order to have the drivers found.)

  • I can't browse using my blackberry browser (wifi connection w/ BB curve 8520)

    good day!
    i purchased a blackberry curve 8520 (w/contract) from one of the telecommunication companies in my country - philippines. everything started all good until one day i can no longer open/use my pre-installed blackberry browser.
    everytime i click on the bb browser logo, the screen just does nothing... nothing loads up on my phone.
    then i tried opening the bb browser throgh the task manager panel a message appears stating: "your device does not currently have any browser configuration service book entries. please contact yor service provider to enable the browser on your device" 
    i have tried rebooting the phone several times, both soft and hard.
    can you give me any solution for my problem? TIA.
    P.S. i have unlocked my phone so i can use it on other carriers. but the problem started a month before i did so. my two friends also have the same phone (bought the same day as mine) and they are not experiencing the same problem.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Here are updated instructions, including notations of the required response from each step. If the response arrives correctly, you move onto the next step. If the response does not arrive correctly, you drop out of the process and contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
    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 HRT
    KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
    Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
    2) Delete and Resend Service Books (pre-BB10 devices only)
    KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
    If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
    KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    Please 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) Reboot
    Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. 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.
    BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. IF this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
    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 try deleting and re-adding your configurations for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
    Good luck!

  • Can't update Curve 8520 to OS 5

    I have downloaded the OS 5 for Curve 8520 onto my computer and every time I go to update my phone when it is connected to the computer, it comes up with a message telling me that there is no new updates available, and the same happens when I try the wireless update from my blackberry handset.  I read somewhere that you need a data plan to update and I have a data plan.  I have tried this countless times and the same thing happens every time I try and update.  Could anybody please tell me how to solve this problem because it is starting to get on my nerves.  Thanks

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    I recommend you abandon the two methods you are attempting to conduct the update (OTA and via Desktop Manager). Rather, use this procedure:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-​Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste​...
    While written for "reload", it is good for upgrade, downgrade, or reload...it all depends on the BB OS package you download and install to your PC.
    Good luck!

  • Curve 8520 unlock - unlocking code "ME-Code" required

    Hi,
    I have an old but working Curve 8520.
    It was used as prepaid mobile in Germany. Now after 2years time, I can unlock the mobile officially by sending the IMEI Number and getting a 16 diget code back.
    After entering the "new" SIM card Curve 8520 is now asking for a ME-CODE !!
    I tlaked to the store people but nobody seems to able to help.
    The unlock code i recieved seems not to be the ME-CODE to unlock my BB
    Any feedback is more than welcome
    Cheers from Germany
    Best
    Marco

    Sorry, in 1o years of using a BlackBerry, unlocking my own devices and helping others, I have never heard of a "ME-Code".
    I would suggest you contact your mobile provider and inquire.
    Or, try another SIM card.

  • Re: BB curve-8520 :Unable to see the option "add existing e-mail account" in the e-mail set up wizard

    Hi there!
    This is Md. Ashikur Rahman purchased a BB curve , model-8520 from India. Now I am in bangladesh & my service provider is Grameenphone. In the e-mail setup wizard I can see only one option which requires BB enterprise password to complete the set up. I think the other option- 'Add existing e-mail account' is locked.
    My service provider is unable to unlock. How can I use that option so I can complete my e-mail set up & comunicate over internet?
    Thanks.
    Ashikur

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Your service provider is exactly that...the provider of all of your services. If they cannot delivery PUSH email to you (or, for that matter, any other BIS-level services), then there's nothing anyone else can do.
    Good luck!
