Email question for a personal curve

Hi all,
i will be receiving my 8330 curve from Verizon Wireless in a few days.
My question is this -- i am using this for my personal email.  no enterprise/work stuff.  Do I still have to keep my computer on at home in order to receive the emails on the blackberry?
Thanks!
Ross

Welcome to the forums.
No, your PC does not need to be on.  If you install Desktop Manager on your PC, do NOT select the 'Desktop Redirector' option (or the Enterprise option).  The Redirector option causes more problems than I have counted.
You should create a BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) account following these steps:  http://blackberryfaq.net/index.php/How_to_add_/_delete_email_addresses
Then you're email will get delivered to your BB anywhere you have coverage.
If you find a post here helpful, please consider giving the poster some Kudos

  • How do I choose a specific email address for a person in a group?

    I want to create a group in my address book. Several of the people in the group have 3 or more email addresses. How do I specify which email for a person is used when I send an email to the group?

    Create the group. Drag in the folks you want to include in the group. Right click on the group and choose "Edit Distribution List" and a window will pop up showing which addresses are selected in bold, and those that are not selected in plain text. Just click on the emails you want to use and it switches the selected address.

  • FIOS Install Question For Disabled Person

    I am scheduled to have FIOS TV/Internet installed tomorrow. I have a question:
    The box that will be installed that is normally attached to an exterior wall...Can that box be installed in my garage, and can the box be placed in a low position that will allow me access from my wheelchair?
    Currently I have TWC cable/DSL and the exterior box is attached to a wall outside my garage close to the electric meter. I would like the FIOS box inside so I can access user servicable areas.
    Thanks,

    If you are referring to the ONT, there are really no user serviceable areas that I know of. There is no reason to have to access it, so that is why it is often placed outside. However, you can ask the installer your question since they will be installing it. They need to be able to run a coax cable into the house from the ONT, to a splitter, and then disperse coax cables to the router and whatever STB/DVRs you have ordered. 
    Their are a few user serviceable areas.  But they are rarely of interest.  Essentially the monitor lights and the area where user connections to phone lines and coax are connected.
    The battery area, sometimes in an enclosure with the ONT but often seperate, needs to be where it can be easily accesed so make sure that is mounted where a disabled person can access it.

  • Email question for E72 owners

    Before buying I'd really appreciate knowing if there is a way to access your email on the E72 without using the Nokia Messaging service. Using the Nokia Messaging program is fine, but can you just define a direct link to your IMAP, POP and MfE accounts, with no restriction on number of messages or days stored, and save the messages to your memory card? Thanks.

    Great, thanks for the info. I have an E71 and a N97, and I've tried Nokia Messaging; html is great and all, but I need to keep several hundred messages on my phone going back for a few months, and I also can't take the chance that the Nokia servers are down or there is a delay at all in receiving something, so I always wind up back with the standard text client. I only need push email on my MfE account, which is pushed anyway, so if the E72 can act like a standard client I can forgo getting a Blackberry. I heard mixed accounts of how this works on the E75, so I was worried the E72 might adopt some problems. Thanks again.

  • Email Settings - For SIM Free Curve 8900

    Hi There,
    I really hope someone out there can help me with my concerns.
    I was bought a New Curve 8900 from Amazon as a SIM Free Device.
    I used my existing BT Sim Card. Went through the initial set up all seemed fine. But upon looking more deeply I cannot receive or access any Email via my Curve.
    I have no ability to add an additional email setting on my device. All I have to choose from is Blackberry Enterprise Server. I have looked at other postings. I know other people have had problems but not to my knowledge in the UK specifically with BT as their service provider. Upon various calls and emails they cannot help as they only support their own BT To Go Phone.
    Can any one help me. I am really struggling to get anywhere with my issue.
    Cheers.

    1. You need to have BT set you up with a BLACKBERRY PLAN
    2. Then you can go to the BT BIS site and add your email address

  • Email question for Lumia 928

    Hello,
    After responding to an email, my phone saves the sent email address.  So, even if I am only going to send 1 email to that address, it is permanently stored on my phone.  Is there are way to remove those email addresses from my phone and make sure that they (and other unwanted) email address do not auto save?  BTW, they do not show up in my "people" app.
    Thanks in advance.

    No, history of mail addressee is a rollover and it will be removed once the queue is full. Except for carrying out a complete phone reset you can't erase this unfortunately.

  • Email question for my Iphone

  • Challenge! A LabVIEW email GUI for elderly person

    My elderly neighbour has recently been set up with a tiny laptop (running win7 starter) and a hotmail account to keep in touch with her relatives. She is in her late 80's and has never used a computer before. She can drive a tractor and shoot moles but never manages to navigate through hotmail to her inbox. (the tiny inbox text is lost in a sea of adverts and junk).
    The obvious solution is a LabVIEW front end! Something that looks like this http://pawpawmail.com/learn/ but uses a free email server.
    I have very little time to produce something, so has anyone driven a web-based email server using LabVIEW before? Can anyone start the ball rolling with some code here? All her relatives live hundreds of miles away, so any help would make a wonderful change to her life. 
    Many Thanks

    Nobody ever said LabVIEW couldn't do this. It could certainly be done, but it's not very practical, as other solutions are better in this case. One must learn when to use a hammer instead of a screwdriver to drive that nail in.

  • In iCal, how can I send multiple email invitations for a single event to one invitee who has multiple email addresses?

    In the "Invitees" field of an event in iCal 4.0.4, I can list my wife from her Address Book card, and choose either her work or personal email address; but I cannot add her *again* and choose the *other* email address, so that she receives it both at work and on her iPhone.
    I read about one (very awkward) workaround, where you create in Address Book a new email field for the person, in which all of the person's emails, separated by commas, are entered in one field. I have not tried it, yet, because it seems as if this addressing feat is fairly obvious and should be a really easy thing to do in iCal.

    Not sure about this problem. But if you don't get an answer soon, go here which is the Mail forum for Leopard (which you listed in your sig).

  • E7-00 activating email notifications for one speci...

    My personal email has been setup through the built-in email client, and my corporate email through Notes Traveler. I'm running S^3 Anna, with Traveler 8.5.3.
    What I want to do is to just receive notifications for new emails on my personal email account, and deactivate the notifications from emails arriving to Traveler. This is something that worked in the past with my old E71-2, where I could select which email account could notify me, and it worked perfectly for me due to the deluge of work related emails.
    On the E71 device I had the Nokia email app for my personal email instead of using the built-in email client. This app appears that is no longer available to download, so I had to use the built-in email client that comes with the E7-00.
    I've looked everywhere on the phone, and appears that there is only two choices:
    a) Disable email notifications for all email accounts
    b) Enable notifications for all accounts.
    If anyone has any idea how to selectively configure email notifications in a E7 the way it was able to do in my E71, I would greatly appreciate it.

    e7 does NOT have email notifications. You just have to place the pers acc widget on the homescreen. E7 does NOT have options to configure def acc either. Push works on LT & MFE but NM push does NOT either. Anna makes all these things worse. Good luck.

  • Can't create a personal email account on my Blackberry Curve 8520.

    I cannot create an personal email account on my Blackberry Curve 8520. I’ve already followed some of the instructions from this forum and on the main website of Blackberry but still can’t create an email account for my phone.
    These are the steps I’m doing when I’m trying to create and email.
    From the home screen, go to Setup.
    Click Setup Wizard.
    Click Email Setup.
    But when I’m in the email setup, the only option I have is the “I want to use a work email account with a Blackberry Enterprise Server.
    I don’t have the option of “I want to create or add an email address”.
    Now, how can I create a personal email account on my phone?
    I hope somebody can help me in my problem.

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
     To use the proprietary RIM Push email capability, you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), you will then have Personal Email added to the email setup wizard.
    Good luck!

  • I have a new email address and my old email keeps coming up on icloud when trying to update apps and i don't know the password or security questions for the old email. I can sign in with my apple id which is tied to another email but not itunes how to fix

    I have an apple id and it has my current email attached to it. however when i go to update apps it's asking for the password for an old email. I no longer have the old email and can't use it. when I go to icloud on my ipad it asks for the password for old email. it doesn't allow me to change the old email to current. when i go to reset it i can't remember the password or security questions for the old email so it doesn't let me go any further. How do I fix this? Do i need to call apple support?

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • Someone is using my personal email address for their apple ID and I'm sick of it! I can't sign up for my own itunes account or anything using MY OWN email address. My email address is my property, not theirs.

    Someone is using my personal email address for their apple ID and I'm sick of it! I can't sign up for my own itunes account or anything using MY OWN email address. My email address is my property, not theirs.
    I'm using their account and will continue to reset their password and settings until they either get the message or Apple do something about it and disable or migrate their account so that I can use MY OWN email address for my own purposes.
    I don't want to be informed about Apple products and services for someone else on my email account.
    I want to be able to use it MYSELF for iTunes
    All I am asking you to do is migrate their apple ID to their alternate email account settings and free up my email address so that:
    A. I can use it and B. I stop getting messages about their account history.
    Either that or just cancel their account as they have no right to use my personal details.
    Yes I could set up a new email address but WHY THE **** should I? I've been using this email account for years for personal stuff, it's not mu fault if someone can sign it up as an AppleID without me being able to confirm their sign up process!
    Your move Apple, make it count.

    Hi Sister Kate,
    If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -

  • Campaign execution not send emails for contact persons

    Hi All!
    I'm facing a problem with Campaigns (communication medium - E-mail): Those are the steps i'm following:
    1.Start the campaign, and on the "campaign: Schedule job" screen, i choose  "immediately". If i look at the campaign details after scheduled the job, the status is now "job started".
    2. To check wich mails were sent, I also had a look at the business partner account that belongs to the target group used. On the "Interaction History" block, there is a line: "Outgoing Email" - on the details of this outgoing email I can see the "To" (Receivers). And here, I have emails from the business Partner contact persons and from the business partner itself (the email that is on the header level of the business partner account, on the "main address and communication data" area). So far so good. That's exactly what i need but,
    3. If i go to the tcode, i only have a send request for the business partner itself and none for his contact persons (although those emails are on the "To" line for the interaction history).
    I'm working on the Webclient UI, of the CRM 7.0
    Does someone knows why the emails are not being sent also for the contact persons?
    Thanks in advance.
