Curve 8330 and I'm using a 16 gig micro sdhc card

believe it or not, I am using a 16 gig micro sdhc card in my sprint 8330 curve.  At the time of purchasing I had no idea that certain OS supported a max amount of gigs.  So of course imagine my surprise when the desktop software would not recognize the card -- luckily the sender of the card sent me a usb flash drive with a sdhc card adapter -- so I just put the micro sdhc card into the adapter and put the adapter into usb the flash drive and I just upload all of my music, etc. onto the card, then insert the card back into my bberry and voila, it works.  Everything shows up.  Mind you, it's a pain b/c if you want to add/remove things you can only do it this way vs. using the desktop software, but for the amount of space, I can deal with it.  I actually sold my itouch (16 gig) and now am just using my phone as a media player.  It's pretty cool!  Anyhow, just thought I would share.

thanks for the info

  • Sync Problems between Blackberry 8330 and Outlook 2007 using Desktop software v 4.7

    I have a Blackberry Curve 8330 and I have been experiencing some problems syncing it with my HP Notebook running Outlook 2007.  I am using the most current Desktop Software version 4.7.  I am using the BB Internet Service and all of my email accounts seem to be operating well.  When I attempt to sync I receive the following errors in this sequence
    Error 1:  Intellisync;  There are no applications configured for synchronization.  From the synchronize screen, go to Configure > Synchronization to configure the applications.
    At this point, I attempt to follow the above instructions and configure the applications I want to Sync.  When I complete the above step for all applications, or each one seperately, I receive the following error:
    Error 2:  Runtime Error;  Folder is no longer a part of the system data source or  the folder can not be found.
    As I stated above, I receive the error for all 4 applications (Address Book, Calendar, Memos and Tasks) whether they are configured seperately or all at once.  I have unistalled the desktop software v4.7 5 times and Outlook 3 times. I am truly at a loss and in dire need of my Calendar and Contacts on my phone.  If anyone has come across this in the past or has any ideas, Please feel free to comment or reply.  Any info will be greatly appreciated!!!

  • Blackberry Curve 8330 and Exchange Email??

    Just got a Blackberry Curve 8330 and was hoping I could use it to get my corporate email.  We are using Exchange SP2 behind an ISA 2006 firewall and OWA is using a self-signed certificate for SSL.  When I attempt to setup this email on my Curve it can not connect to the Exchange server.  I was told that the Blackberry could use OWA to connect, but I am guessing either the ISA server or the self-signed certificate for OWA is causing the problem.  I really love the phone and don't want to have to swap it for something else because of this issue. 

    Ok, well first things first, Does your company have a Blackberry Enterprise Server with their exchange??
    If they do, u need to have a Blackberry Enterprise plan on your service and you can connect straight to their BES/Exchange.
    If they don't have a BB server, you will need to create a pop3 email to link to your device, and have your company forward all your exchange email to your pop3 email.
    This is so large companys must 'pay' a few grand to host a Blackberry server and thus have the email all go through fine..
    If your company does not wish to do this, you must sneak around it the 'Blackberry Internet Solution' way...
    If your issue is resolved, put a checkmark in the green box that contains the resolution.

  • New Curve not recognizing an 8gig micro SDHC card

    Hi - I am totally new to the BB and to this forum. Here's my dilemma - I just bought and "installed" an 8gig micro SDHC card last night. The phone does not recorgnize it. First when I went to take video, it told me to install a formatted card. When I try to format, I get the message "Media Card Format Failed". I have tried many times, checked on how it looks in it's spot behind the battery, etc. Everything else seems OK. Any help??
    Thanks much.

    What I can deduce from my experience is that one should not buy a SDHC card if you've got a curve 9300 or 9330 phone. Even if the SP tell you the model is compatible with the technology, blackberry specs only mention that SD cards are accepted 
    http://worldwide.blackberry.com/blackberrycurve/3G/curve_specifications.jsp
    Hello,
    Sorry...but wrong. The only difference between SD and SDHC is the capacity of the card. SD goes up to 2GB (officially...some have labeled themselves SD but go to 4GB). SDHC goes from 4GB to 32GB. HC simply stands for "High Capacity." More information is available in the Wiki:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital
    So, while the BB specs may only say "SD", they must include SDHC since they further indicate the capacity of Media Cards that various OS levels support:

  • E65 and 4gb Micro SDHC card

    Hi out there
    I bought a 4gb Kingston Micro SDHC card for my new E65, but the phone don't regognize the card.
    Can the card be used with the phone, and if so - how.
    My phone has softwareversion 3.0633.69.00 from 06-02-08
    Thanks in advance

    The card cannot be used with the E65.
    The E65 only supports the micro SD standard so it's maximum is 2GB. 4GB cards are the newer SDHC standard and cannot be made to work on older hardware.

  • Curve 8330 and micro SDHC media card?

    Does the Curve 8330 support a micro SDHC media card or do I have to only use a micro SD card?
    Thanks!

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    A couple of places for you to visit: Blackberry 101    Tips & Tricks
    It will support a micro SDHC media card.  See these kb articles:   Media Card sizes supported by BB OS
    Go to options-about (3rd line down will read v4.x.x.xxx - this is your OS version)

  • Blackberry Curve 8330 and Desktop Manager v5.0

    I have a BB curve 8330 running the current device software, BB Desktop manager v5.0 and Outlook 2007 on Windows Vista and have just recently experienced problems syncing.  I continue to get an error message such as below...
    Faulting application DesktopMgr.exe, version 5.0.0.11, time stamp 0x4a4bd539, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e03821, exception code 0xc0000374, fault offset 0x000afaf8, process id 0x1dc, application start time 0x01ca41d751046e2b.
    I've tried everything I can think of from reinstalling DTM, previous versions of DTM...getting rid of the "intellisync" folder that others have discussed...scanning my PST and OST files for errors, reconfiguring the sync settings...all with the same result.  Everything is fine until it goes to read the calendar off of outlook and sync it...then it crashes saying the program has to close and windows will notify me if there is a solution....I've even tried running DTM with Vista's "Administrator" option and no dice...
    I'm thinking this is an issue either with DTM or with the latest Vista Update (Windows 7 can't come soon enough!)....anyone else have any other ideas as to what this could be??? 

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    While you have tried many things, I cannot tell if you have tried this...so apologies if it is redundant in any way.
    I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
    1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
    2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
    KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
    3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchornizing via USB):
    KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
    4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/dow​nload_sites.jsp
    5) Install DTM to your PC
    6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
    7) Start the organizer configuration over:
    KB17022 How to configure organizer applications for synchronization using BlackBerry Desktop Manager
    Hopefully that will get things going again.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Curve 8330 Shows full charge using USB Cable on Desktop, but isn't fully charged.

    I have an issue with my 8330 and Charging. I plug it into the computer using the supplied USB Cable to download/ upload media while it charges using my desktop. Last night it indicated it was fully charged, so after downloading some things onto it, I shut it down and disconnected it from the desktop.
    This morning I got to work and turned it on and the battery life indicator on the home screen showed it was 3/4 charged. The time on the clock was off also and I had to go in and update the time in the settings tab. When I returned to the home screen from updating the time, the battery indicator showed half full. This is the second incident where after charging the phone either on the USB Cable connection or the wall charger, I've turned it on the next morning only to have half a charge or a little more. Any information on this would be helpful. Thanks!
    Brian

    Try Restoring it (this will remove all data from the iPod), resync, use it until the battery is low, and then fully charge it. And make sure your Dell is set to provide full power to USB ports.

  • Blackberry Curve 8330 and newest PocketMac software

    I downloaded the newest PocketMac version 4.1.25 in hopes it would help with some of the problems that I have had with the syncing. I haven't installed it yet, because I can't find anywhere that it supports my Curve 8330. I don't want to make matters worse, but installing incorrect software. Does anyone know if it works with my phone?

  • BB Curve 8330 and Mac Mail on Browser/Internet

    Hi there,
    I wanted to access my MobileMe Mac mail using the BB browser.  I received an error message telling to me enable Java which I then did.  Still not able to access the website, www.me.com, keep getting error message.  I then went into the settings and checked them for both the WAP and Internet browser portions, all now have check marks beside the Enable java feature.
    Am I missing something?  Is it possible that the java doesn't want to run on this Curve?  Do I perhaps need to update the OS?  What is the most recent version available and does it have to be downloaded from your carrier (Bell Mobility in my case).
    Any advice or suggestions on how to correct this issue would be much appreciated.  Thank you in hopeful anticipation.

  • Blackberry Curve 8330 and Act! 6.0........

    Hello all, I was wondering if any of you had insight into whether Act! 6.0 is synching with the Curve. I previously had the Palm Treo 700P which is a piece of garbage and was lucky it worked at all. My company is upgrading to Blackberry and abandoning Palm, I see here on your product sheet that Act! 6.0 is supported but has anyone had any experience using this Blackberry with Act! as I always had alot of issues with synching Act! with any PDA and wanted to hear others experiences before settling on this model. I also read that Companionlink may be needed, however it doesn't bother me when nothing prevoiusly available would successfully synch my Palm with Act! without issues......
    Thanks for the help......
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I finally received my Curve and I just wanted to share my positive experience with you all. It's simple as pie to sync Act! 6.0 using only CompanionLink and Blackberry Desktop, skipping the more difficult sync with Outlook then Blackberry method. I had it all done in under 10 minutes and it was a pleasure. I personally took my Palm Treo 700 and smashed it into a million pieces on the street in front of my job to celebrate. CompanionLink has all the instructions on how to do this easily here:
    http://www.companionlink.com/support/setupguides_CL_BB.html
    So follow these instructions and join me in the fun of smashing all the bad Palm memories out of existance........

  • Curve 8330 and Slacker v.2.02

    I recently downloaded/ exchanged Slacker Personal Radio App V. 2.0 and my smartphone is rebooting when this application is operating. The old version was not a problem.  Other than that issue, my handheld is functioning very well. I usually listen to the streaming radio with my headset plugged in. Additionally, I can listen without incident to the media player as the mp3 files function with the use of the earbuds.
    Upon further investigation of my handheld and reading other postings, I was also wondering if having the Slacker App on my media card as opposed to the internal memory would be an issue?
    Can someone enlighten me?
