Any ideas?

Having a compose shortcut will take to address book to choose a contact so that you can send emails. It will not direct you for making calls or sending SMS text.

Left convenience key problem

No matter how many times I reset it the left convenience key only brings up the phone book. I want the default voice calling. I've tried setting it to several things to see if it was a problem with just the voice calling but no the phone book is all that key will bring up. The other side works fine. I reset it when I first got my 8110 for the alarm feature but recently decided to change back to default. It won't go back to alarm either. TIA

Left Convenience Key issue

Hi any assitance appreciated
In Options>Screen/keyboard, Ii set up the L (or R) Convenience key as "Compose"
This should allow a one key press to initiate an SMS
However when I push it and it spawns the response from the BB Storm, it brings up the contact list ok but when I chose a contact - all it does is ask if I want to CALL the contact. It doesnt switch to the text insertion mode so that I can actuially compse a text. In the menu then it asks if I wasnt o call sms or mms the contact.
Any ideas whassup? Or how els one can get a 1 key method of getting to the SMS prog?
TIA

Hello lillibitt67
To rule out any Software issue I prefer you should Reload your Device Software and see if that helps otherwise you need to contact your Service provider for repair.So please try it first.

Getting IM+Talk to work - convenience key

Good day,
I have loaded IM+Talk and in order for me to transmit voice, it requests that the "left convenience key" be pressed. There is no left convenience key to press.
Skype connects, and I can hear the other party, but cannot transmit voice.
If I go to options to assign an action to the convenience key (situated on the right), it seems that the convenience key only opens applications such as camera (default action).
Question is - how do I then transmit voice using IM+Talk?
Appreciate your feedback.
Jean

CmdfnF5 (or just Cmd+F5 if your keyboard is set to use the F keys as F keys instead of vol controls etc.)
Can also be set from System Preferences > Universal Access

Convenience keys opening the phone screen.

I have a Curve 8530. The convenience keys are going to the phone screen. The right is entering the letters Hi and the left is entering Yi.
I've checked the options and its set on camera and voice dial defaults.
I've tried enabling memory cleaning. I am at a loss. Please help.
Thanks

Try restoring as new, i.e. without your backup.

Need of a "convenience key"-like feature for the audio jack

This should be a very simple OS patch for the RIM programmers. When the 3.5mm audio output is connected, it would be extremely handy to have something like a "convenience key" feature. To be more precise:
-in Option, Screen/Keyboard, please make a section like "when in audio output, opens:" so one can choose an app, like an MP3 player or anything else
- and another option "when in audio output, connects:" so one can ENABLE bluetooth (and not Set Up bluetooth which is useless) automatically. The bberry will automatically pair with a preset device, like the bluetooth system of a car.
I hope this will be available in future OS or in a quick patch, and I'm sure many other will appreciate such features.

Sure.
I don't think anyone (at least I didn't) state it was inappropriate.
But at least you do see it is useless. And, I didn't say that either.

Hi just an update to the problem of the convenience key not working or working now and again. I had to do a couple of reboots this morning to update some apps and I noticed the key was not working after the reboot so I attached the charging cable to the phone and plugged into the wall socket thinking that will fix it again, but no it didnt. !!! I then remembered the first time I had this sorted I had plugged the charger in and switched the power on and then attached the phone, so I tried this method again and the key is working fine again!!!!. So what ever is happening when you do it in this sequence seems to reset the key. How did you get on with your phone with the Blackberry info?

Convenience Key Customization

I need the right side convenience key to go to: Now Playing.
The closest option now is media.
Can you program that into the next OS or provide a link to a 3rd party provider that has this feature?
I use my BB 8300 series for listening to pod cast. Also it would be nice if the media player had a fast forward feature for listening to the commercials in double speed.

Go to Options > Screen/Keyboard > Convenience Key and see if you can.

Multi Monitor - Windows Key + Left/Right not working?

Hi everyone,
Just checking whether it's just me or other people having this issue (I can't find a similar thread for the Windows 10 Technical Preview).
Windows Key + Left/Right does not seem to snap to another monitor. On my setup it continually cycles on the monitor it's already on (Left/Mid/Right), but does not jump across to the next monitor when it hits the end.
Is this an intended change in the Technical Preview? Is anyone else having the same behaviour? If not, any suggestions on troubleshooting it?
Thanks!

Apparently this is an intended part of the new virtual desktop system. It also affects the Shift-Win-Up maximizing the window, and Shift-Win-Down minimizing it... they now function with a double-tap of the Up or Down. But unfortunately Shift-Win-Left
or Right will just move around on whichever single screen the application is now on, regardless of how many monitors you actually have.
Just to clarify, do you mean the feature to snap/cycle to other monitors was intentionally removed? Or due to other changes to snap it's had this adverse affect?
The ability to Windows Key + move to other monitors is highly useful, and often much quicker than dragging/dropping to move to another monitor. I hope this is just an oversight and will be reverted!
Thanks to others for your feedback and info too, glad to know I'm not the only one encountering this issue.

How do i create *if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)* allow two buttons

I got this code
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && Math.abs(this["speed"+who])>0.3) {
_root["car"+who]._rotation -= _root.rotationStep2*(this["speed"+who]/_root.maxSpeed);
How do i allow it to have SPACE key and LEFT you probably knew it wouldn't work but i tried this
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT.SPACE) No luck though. Not that it was meant too ???
Can you proide me the correct key to allow space key and left key pressed together.
Space bar is my booster.

If you want both conditions to be detected simultaneously, you need to test separately for each simultaneously...
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && Key.isDown(Key.SPACE))

Convenience Key Is Not Working!!!

Hi, BB fans I just got a BB Torch 9860 phone. However the convenience key is not working. No matter to what option I set it to, it doesn't work. The default Camera also doesn't work. I have enabled the keytones on my phone. I hear the keytone whenever I press the convenience key. But nothing happens. My phone's running BB OS 7.1 bundle 2061. So.... any prosss can help of this?

I understand. Since you just did an exchange, I recommend taking it to the store.
It sounds like you're setting up the key right, but the button just doesn't work. It doesn't sound like you have additional apps install that could prevent the key from working.
Here is the doc but I think you've got that covered.
