Hey Maggie20,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
There was an issue adding Hotmail email accounts.  This issue should now be resolved.  Are you still having trouble?
I look forward to your reply.
Cheers.

  • Email Setup - Please Help!

    I'm trying to complete the setup wizard on my Curve 8520 but when I go to Email Setup there doesn't seem to be an option for personal email addresses, only for work email accounts. Can anyone tell me how to find the non-work option? Thanks x

    Do you have a BlackBerry Data Plan enabled on your account with your carrier or mobile provider?
    You must, in order to get the RIM push email functions you are looking for, as well as addtional BlackBerry data services such as the internet browser, Facebook for BlackBerry, BlackBerry Messenger, and much more.
    So, call your carrier and inquire about having the BlackBerry Data Plan added to your account.
    Good luck.

  • New email setup procedure help

    Hi,
    I am a new user and I am presently awaiting my router today.
    I wanted to set up my email but I see that the username I requested when signing up does not appear in the email update sent to me. It shows a different username and password!
    Does this mean I cannot use the one I selected when I registered - -I am confused.
    Can someone clarify please?
    Thanks.
    Stuart.

  • Something's wrong with my Email setup

    i follow some demo video i've watch about the Email setup it helped but the problem is in the email setup it doesn't say ''i want to create or add an email adress'' but it only says ''i want to use a work email account with a blackberry enterprise server''... so what now? please someone ;/

    Dont worry about it then, Its on each blackberry but not everyone can use it, your employer would have an Enterprise server and you would have and admin and a bunch of other stuff. your employer would give you details...
    If all this sounds foreign to you. chances are you dont have access and thus.. no worries

  • Help please - Bricked Phone - Now no email setup or app installation possible!

    Hello,
    I'm new here and I've searched your posts looking for a solution to my problem but nothing seems to work.
    My phone (curve 8520) was bricked/nuked and I fixed it following these instructions http://crackberry.com/blackberry-101-lecture-12-how-reload-operating-system-nuked-blackberry.
    All went well except for the fact that I lost the email setup icon on my phone.
    I tried using this link http://www.mobileemail.vodafone.pt/ but they tell me I have to use my phone to do it. When I try it using my phone it won't let me and I receive a message telling me that I need to contact my network provider.
    After this I tried a security wipe. Nothing.
    Today I tried installing facebook and got this message "Download Failed 907 Invalid COD"
    After that I tried following these steps http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Bold/Done-a-Security-Wipe-and-now-can-t-set-up-my-... but I dont get any message after registering HRT (http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/viewdocument.do?externalId=KB00510&sliceId=2&cmd=displayKC&d...
    Does anyone know what's wrong with my phone? Can it be fixed?
    I need email on my phone for work...
    Thanks!

    Given that, you need to talk to your mobile service provider...it is their network that your BB must attach to, and for some reason it is not doing so. But, since it is their network, you need their formal support to resolve this.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Using my work email setup on my iPhone 5 I am  unable to send the email on my own hotmail account. Please help !!

    Using my work email setup on my iPhone 5 I am able to send emails to all my colleagues on same network but I am unable to send the email on my own hotmail account. Please help !!
    I have setup email using POP settings.

    Okay, so you are sending mail from a work account on the iPhone 5, however if you try to send it to your hotmail or gmail accounts from the same work account, they are not received on the hotmail or gmail account? Is that correct?
    YES - (The message is shown as delivered as its moved to sent folder)
    Then secondly, if you attempt to send mail to anyone from the hotmail or gmail accounts on the phone to anyone at all, they show sent but never arrive. Is that correct?
    NO - I dont have any hotmail/gmail account setup on my phone. Its a new work phone and I only have work email account setup on the phone. I was just trying to send a test email to my hotmail and gmail account but failed to receive those using my work email account on iphone 5.
    I have tried receiving email on my work account on iphone, sent from my hotmail account (using web) and received it.
    Incoming is all fine and I am able to receive emails from all sources but outgoing is only sucessful if I send it to anyone using my company's email account.
    Sorry if my question wasn't clear earlier. I really need to fix this..
    Best regards,

  • Bold 9700 not starting up after email setup update 6.11. Need help with a mac!!!

    I installed the official os 6 on my blackberry released by O2 over a month back. Yesterday, I was not able to configure any emails without downloaed the new version of the email setup 6.11. After the install, I was needed to reboot the phone. However, since then the phone is not switching on. That initial page comes with the Blackberry logo and that status bar (which shows completed) but never leaves that page!!
    Someone please please help!!!!

    I got mine to work by reinstalling OS 6 via the Blackberry Desktop software, but because I restored my backup as well as my old settings for email, my emails are still coming through provided I don't change my passwords as I can't get into settings without being asked to update as well. It means I won't be able to get my exchange emails as we always have to change/verify passwords periodically. The weirdest thing is that I no longer have maps and password keeper....

  • Easier way to view phone call logs? Also, help with email setup...

    1.  On my 8220 it's not very efficient to view past call logs and or missed calls.  I have to go into my Messages folder, click the menu button, scroll down to 'view folder' and then scroll down to my 'Phone Call Logs'.  Is there a way to create a folder dedicated to viewing call logs and my missed calls on my home screen without going through all that timely navigating?  Is there a special download for this application?  I've seen this folder on the BB 101 tutorial webpage.
    I'm with Rogers Wireless if that helps.
    2.  When I select the Email Setup it only gives me the the option to "I want to use a work email account with a BlackBey Enterprise Server" and no option for the "I want to create or add an email address" which I see on the BB 101 tutorial webpage.  Well, I'd like to create or add an email address.  How can I get that option on my phone?
    Oh and one more thing, is the 8220 able to run the BB maps application?
    Any help is much appreciated!

    1) While in your messages folder, try pressing ALT + P to bring up the phone logs without all the navigating. (I know that works on other BB models, I don't know on the 8220).
    2) Do you have a BB Data Plan on your carrier account? Once it is , you will get the personal email setup icon.

  • E72 email setup problems. Please help

    I am trying for some time now to set up my email account on my new Nokia E72 without any succes. I hit the email setup button, chose the right acces point provided by the mobile company and after I enter the email and password the mesage "maximum number connections in use. Close an active connection first" appears. Here I only have two options OK or CANCEL. Hitting CANCEL it just gets out of what I was doing. Hitting OK it only gives me the acces point which I am using without any other option so I have to close it. Could anyone help me with this problem please?

    Then you better check if other apps like Facebook, Worldmate, etc.. use connections.
    ‡Thank you for hitting the Blue/Green Star button‡

  • There is no option to add an email account in the email setup settings please for your help!!

    Hi everybody,
    i just became fan of blackberry. i am trying to set up the email i already have in my yahoo account.
    I am following the guide and i go to setup email settings. However, there is just the option of  "I want to use a work email account with a blackberry enterprise server".
    is there any other way to set up my yahoo account in my device?
    thanks a lot for your help!!
    Regards
    Dimitris

    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 should then have Personal Email added to the email setup wizard.
    Good luck!

  • Help!! please email setup requesting enterprise activation after factory reset

    after i did a factory reset i notice my email set up is requesting enterprise activation email and password i don't have either so now my email setup can't work unless i do it and my native browser won't connect and blackberry protect won't work. i registered the blackberry thru hosting and i got your blackberry is registered but i can't get the other apps to work since i need the enterprise activation.

    i got the phone from ebay so i don't know if it's on BES and as far as a blackberry data plan i have verizon prepaid and i activated the phone thru them with no problem and i signed up for BIS with no issues but i don't remember the password to get the service books sent to my phone. the phone just stop working a couple of days ago i have had it since october with no issues until now. the first thing i notice was i stopped getting email and it said my service was blocked so i did a battery pull that didn't work. then i did a security swipe and now i can't access the email setup or the browser and it says that i don't have a data plan needed to use it which i don't get since i have had no problems since october. i was told on by someone that maybe i was over my data but i just looked and saw i wasn't and it rolled back since i paid on the 24. this is like the 3rd incident since switching from post paid to prepaid it is making me want to switch carriers

  • Username for email setup

    Hey, 
    I've had my torch for a little over a year now and when I first set up my emails, everything worked perfectly fine with it, but now it won't let me recieve emails to my phone at all from my gmail account. My first problem was that I needed a password as I thought I knew my username, so I went on blackberry's website and changed my password. My problem now is that it still won't allow to use my setup and says the combination is wrong, which means my username is wrong. On the blackberry website it says my username is my email address and when i try to change it to a normal username, it says that it has to be an email address. But on my blackberry torch when i try to put in my email address as my username in my email setup it tells me that 'the username is invalid. A user name must be at least 4 characters' and I found out that it's the @ sign which makes it invalid. 
    How can I find what my username is, or change it so that I can restart my email or at least check that it works, because i cannot send emails either as it says that the account is in invalid mode. 
    Also, my wifi hasn't picked up any wifis at all, even though it used to. Is there anywhere I can turn it on or anywhere where I could possibly have something turned off without knowing it? It's very frustrating when it doesn't find any networks, when I'm standing right next to a perfectly working router. 
    Thanks, 
    Penny 

    You can always try going to your carrier's self-serve BIS site to set up email addresses on your phone (your carrier will help you with it along the way) or you can type www.blackberry.com/integrate from your phone's browser.
    I hope that helps you.

  • Email setup username

    When trying to login to the existing users email setup, my username is either not recognised or is invalid. If I used the screen name of my BB ID then the password does not match whilst when I used my full registered email address, it won't recognise the @ symbol and says the my username is invalid.
    I've been stuck with this problem for a month now and Orange says there's nothing they can do about it.
    Any ideas?

    Ask Orange to delete your BIS account, and re-add it to your account.
    Then you can setup fresh and set a new username/password.

  • Email Setup Torch 9800 Username Password

    Hi, I'm using a BB Torch 9800, basically I changed my email password recently and now need to change the settings on my BB.  However when I tried to go to settings to change my email account settings, its asking for login?  It not my email account or BB ID login as I tried to register to that and that didn't work.  Then I think its the BB account (which is different from BB ID... so confusing...) So I tried register that but doesn't seem to allow me to do so.... Any suggestions would be appreciate it!  Alternatively, should I wipe all the info and start again? Many thanks!Maria
