Help with email setup.

I have gone through and read as many posts as I can about this and still can't find the answer or proper way to do it. I have a hand me down 8310 Curve. The person that gave it to me showed me how to go in and wipe handheld and I did do that. I have done the soft reset and gone into the personal email account setup. I get a message that this device has an account already that exists and to call the 800 number. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Melric, Greetings, and welcome to the BlackBerry.com Support Forums.
And when you called that 800 number....?
I am guessing that the previous owner has not removed the PIN of that BlackBerry from his previous account... tell him to call his carrier to do so.

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.

I need some basic help with Email setup

Hello, I ve just been connected to infinity and I m trying to setup a few email addresses but the BT yahoo system is confusing me.
I managed to create a new email (sub account) for my wife but I m struggling with finding a way to have a couple more for myself. Do I really need to make a sub account for each email?
The default email has my name and surname in it which is not something I generally use for that purpose, I would only use that one for close friends and family, I would like to setup another one for general use and one for when there is a likelyhood it ll get a lot of spam.
The way to add extra emails is usually very simple (with previous isps) , login to "manage my account" and choose username and password then enter the details in outlook express.
With BT I m having to deal with the Yahoo thingy, which does a lot of more than just emails but at this time I have interest in it at all.
1 - I would simply like to setup a few emails to use with outlook express, what is the best way to achieve that ?
2 - The yahoo email seems to be part of a network like facebook, as I don t intend to use that side of it I would prefer not to have my personal details associated with a profile that I do not need . It seems to be for public viewing by default.
Can I set up and use my emails without having an online profile for yahoo?
How do i keep my details offline (not publicly viewable in yahoo)?
thanks.

yes!
you get one prime email address. the one you agreed to and the one to set up your bt mail, it was in letter confirming bt set up. (order ref)
for more for yourself, or anybody else, its got to be sub. up to ten for INF2
I have set up 4 sub accounts with different names, etc. but use the same password for all 5 .
I then had them set up with outlook express, there is a bt prog to do this. look on site.
Then I use incredimail as my final mail client, this also has a prog to set up from outlook express.
so all my mail to and from me ends up in incredimail with my 4 sub accounts, using one as my prime.
my bt prime I do not use, as it is my full name.
so far so good, just a bit slow finding its way, like you my previous ISP (tesco) was less complicated, but slow copper wire.
good luck
Ronin22
In the end we will all be star dust.
Then start all over again.

Need help with Printer Setup conventions

I can't get my Brother printer to print from one computer--but it prints okay from the other computer on my network. I need to know the conventions for the Printer Setup Utility.
There's a checkbox by every printer on the list. What does it mean when the checkbox is grayed out?
Some printer names appear in bold. What does that mean?
Thanx.

Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your help in this and just want to understand what you're saying.
As I say, the printer is displayed in the print dialog box but the checkbox is grayed out. I'm assuming that when you say "...it can't find/see them now," you mean the print dialogue can't see them (the drivers). Your last sentence confuses me. You say, "Do you maybe have Printer Sharing enabled & they aren't actually directly connected? If so you have to reboot after turning it off." A little confusion about your antecedents here. What isn't actually connected? The printer? So I have to reboot after turning it off, "it" I suppose is the printer, is that right? I will try that. So turn printer off, reboot, turn printer on. Right?
I will describe my problem. l thought that if I understood why the checkbox was grayed out I might see what my problem was. If you want me to start another topic I can do that.
Problem: I have a network with 2 computers and the Brother
multifunction fax/printer. I'm using an Apple airport hub. The printer
and one computer (Mac tower) are connected to the airport base via
ethernet. The 2nd computer (Apple laptop) is on the wireless network.
Until recently i could print from both computers. Now I can't print from
the tower. But I can still print from the laptop.
When I try to print from the tower I get an error message that says, "Cannot print from current printer." I have rebooted, reinstalled printer drivers, checked cables, deleted printer from printer list and re-added printer all to no avail. But as I say, I can still print from the laptop which is using Airport. So the printer prints, the hub connects to the printer okay (ethernet) and I know the tower connects to the hub (I can ping the printer okay from the tower.)
I am conversing to Brother support via email and their first suggestions I have already tried. Perhaps there's some problem in the network, but I can't figure it out. Worse yet, now when I go to the Network preferences I get an error message which says, "Your network settings have been changed by another application." THIS ERROR MESSAGE WON'T GO AWAY! I can click 'okay' but it reappears. I have to force quit the System Preferences to get out. If you can help with any of these problems I surely appreciate it.

Help with email suppot on n96 needed please.

hi, im hoping some one can help me with my problem, i downloaded the email update for n96, it's the 1st time ive used it, (the one with the pink @ logo.) i go through the email setup and ad my main account with another one. it worked for a while until both accounts got an email from nokia mail saying that its not working and gave me a list of reason.
Dear Nokia Messaging customer,
Recently, our email service has been unable to connect to your email service provider, preventing email delivery to your phone.
This may occur due to one of the following reasons:
1. Through your service provider, you have changed the email password of your email address. If so, you must update your Nokia Messaging service account with your new password. Email messages will then be delivered to your phone.
2. The server for your email address is down. For more information, contact your service provider.
3. You might have inadvertently changed a setting in your Nokia Messaging service account. Log in to your Nokia Messaging account on the website http://netac2.vie.hosting.nokia.com/account to determine whether your information needs to be updated.
Sincerely,
The Nokia Messaging Team
now, i never changed any settings, or password information, and hotmail is saying theres is nothing wrong.
can some one please help me?!?! thank you.

please try and help some 1! This is really bugging me.

Problems with email setup on my E72

I have problems with my email setup, the phone will not notify me when a new email arrives. I have had the unit in the shop, tried to get help form my service provider, have sent it back for repairs and it still will not work properly. The repair centre told me that it does have the latest software on it and said it should work fine. It,s a brilliant phone but this so frustrating. I would appreciate some help to get this sorted. Thank you, fuzzy2

Check homescreen applications-> e-mail notification.

Problems with Email Setup

I purchased a Blackberry Curve 9330 a few days ago, and am having problems with the email setup. I previously had an older model of the Curve, so have used Blackberry for email before. I'm going to Messagex ---> Options ---> Email Account Management and I get the following message:
"A new BlackBerry device has been detected. You must move email account(s) to resume email delivery to your BlackBerry device. Email delivery to your old device has been stopped."
It then lists the three email accounts I had on my previous Blackberry, and I click on "Move". It prompts me to enter my passwords for each email address, I do, and it says "Your password has been successfully validated." It shows all three email addressess. I return to my home screen, and the email icons are not there. I go back to Email Account Management, and it prompts me to "move" my email accounts and enter passwords all over again. I've done this at least 20 times at this point.
HELP!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
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
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. 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. 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 contact your wireless service provider for formal support.
Good luck!

Problems with email setup - Can't access security check

Hi all, i've recently aquired a BB Curve 9300 and managed to setup everything but I still have an unsolved problem:
i set up a gmail email account from my provider mobile email setup page (http://mobileemail.vodafone.it) and asked to sync both contacts and calendars.
The email was correctly set up as i can read and send emails but syncronization doesn't work.
My provider's site says:
If you have not already done so, to start calendar and contact synchronization, complete the security activation on your BlackBerry® device:
1. On the Home screen, click the Setup icon and click Email Accounts or Email Settings.
2. After you open the application, the security activation starts. When security activation is complete, calendar and contact synchronization automatically begins.
If i try to do just that (open the menu, click on the set-up icon and then choose the "Email Accounts" icon) the device quickly shows a hourclass icon, hide it and then does nothing.
If i try to access "Email Account Management" from inside the mailbox options i get the following error message:
"unable to open email set-up application. contact your wireless service provider"
I tried contacting my wireless service provider both in-shop and on the phone and their theory is that the email setup application is too new and is not compatible with my version of the blackberry OS (which is 6.0 bundle 2949, the device says it's up to date).
I tried a battery pull but didn't help.
Any suggestion would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Marcello

Gotcha.
Are you able to access the email account from https://bis.eu.blackberry.com/html?brand=vodauk
If so, delete the email account from there then try adding it using the integrate link on the phone.

Help With My Setup...

I Hope I'm in the right forum, If not let me know where this post should go.
Thanks for helping me out. I have some questions regarding my setup and acquiring new gear. Currently, I have a the following setup:
IMac - newer model
Logic Pro 9
Numark tt-usb turntable
Stanton DJ mixer
Pair of Yamaha HS80 monitors
MPD 24
I would like to add a keyboard controller (I'm thinking of the new Korg Microsampler). Basically, I'm willing to get the microsampler as long as it can Fully function like a controller, which can control logic synths & plug-ins(axiom, mpk, etc.) and as well as it's own features. Furthermore, I would like to to be able to record from my turntable to logic and into the microsampler. I understand I would need an interface. Would I still need the mixer? Would the M-Audio Firewire Solo work with my setup?
Would a control surface take place of an Interface?
I am possibly interested in getting a control surface that works good within logic. I was looking at the Euphonix MC Control, it seems to work great with logic. Is there an cheaper alternative? Also, I would like it to be user friendly, I am new to this.
Essentially, I want everything to work simple & smoothly. I like to make sample based music from records. Can you give me a rundown of the necessary items I'm going to need...cables, interface, etc.
Sorry, if I'm rambling just want to be clear.
I appreciate your time....

I use a Alesis multimix FW and a presonus inspire.
I would guess that you should always get dry sound from any output with firewire plugged in or not. My inspire uses a software control panel to route signal and the Multimix is all hardware. I have no clue how to route signal with the firebox but it has to be one or the other. Presonus is pretty good with updates and bug fixes did you check for new drivers?

Can anyone help with email in my old G4 17" ??

My G4 17", bought December 2004, is considered an antique by Apple, and no longer supported. (I now mostly use my early 2011 MacBookPro.)
But the big screen on by G4 is very useful for Sibelius 4, the music program I mostly use (Sibelius 7 in the MacBookPro - but much too fussy for me.)
Sibelius 4 in the G4 continues to work flawlessly.
But my email account recently sort of died. It's POP account (whatever that means). I can no longer receive messages, BUT I can still create and
send new messages, and of course forward any saved message to myself in the MacBookPro.
ALSO: if I have to shut down the G4, it usually reopens with a horizontally divided display, and it usually takes many restarts before it will open
will a full screen display (seems to reopen correctly more often if left in a cool place overnight.)
Can anyone help with one or both these issues? I want to keep the G4 going as long as I can. BTW, I don't use it for browsing anyone, Safari installed,
because it is now so slow. The MacBookPro handles all that for me.
Thanks very much, James Johnson in Plattsburgh NY (where it is still cold and wintry, o f--k)

To RCCHARLES: THANKS !!!! I did the safe boot start, following the link you provided, then waited, and waited, and waited, and ---
Well that is interesting. Amoung other things safe boot does:
-- check and fixes up your file system. The files system allows you to keep files on your harddrive.
-- Does all video rendering in software.
You could have a one time glitch or harddrive is slowly failing. If you never replaced the harddrive, it is time for a new one.
You may want to consider getting a new harddrive. The easiest way is to get an external drive. No disassembly of the machine is required.
You need an external Firewire drive to boot a PowerPC Mac computer [ a few G5's will boot from USB ].
I recommend you do a google search on any external harddrive you are looking at.
I bought a low cost external drive enclosure. When I started having trouble with it, I did a google search and found a lot of complaints about the drive enclosure. I ended up buying a new drive enclosure. On my second go around, I decided to buy a drive enclosure with a good history of working with Macs. The chip set seems to be the key ingredient. The Oxford line of chips seems to be good. I got the Oxford 911.
I'd give OWC a call. 1-815-338-8685.
FireWire 800 + USB 3, + eSATA
save a little money interface:
FireWire 400 + USB 2.0
This web page lists both external harddrive types. You may need to scroll to the right to see both.
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/firewire/1394/USB/EliteAL/eSATA_FW800_FW400_USB
     (2) FireWire 800/400 Ports (Up to 100MB/s / 50MB/s)
     (1) USB 3.0 Port (Up to 500MB/s / 60MB/s)
     (1) eSATA Port (Up to 300MB/s)
Has a combo firewire 800/400 port. Not sure what this is. Looks like you will need 400 cable.

Need some help with guitar setup...

jeez, never thought i'd be asking a question like this after playing for like 20 years, but i need some help with a guitar setup for mac. i'm gonna list out a lot of crap here that prolly doesn't affect anything at all, but here goes.
Imac 17inch G4 - latest updated OS X... 10.4, or 5, or whatever. garageband 3.0
digitech gnx-3
alesis sr-16
sure mic's
yamaha e203 keyboard
here's the setup:
yamaha is on its own on a usb uno midi interface, sure's connected to gnx's xlr port, alesis connected to gnx's jam-a-long input, '87 kramer vanguard connected to gnx's guitar input. currently running headphones out on gnx to line in on mac.
here's the problem:
everything works beautifully, but my guitar sounds like crap. if i plug headphones into the gnx, it sounds beautiful. that makes me think its some kind of level issue between the gnx's output, and the mac's input, but nothing seems to fix it.
by sounding like crap, i mean way too much bass. sound is muddy, blurry, not crisp... aka crap. i've tried altering both output and input on mac and gnx, and i cant get a combination that works. the gnx has a s/pdif out, can the mac accept that as input? might that help? short of running the gnx to my marshal half stack and mic'ing that, anyone have any suggestions, or use a similar setup?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

anyone? ... any suggestions? I think it might be an issue with the gnx pre-amping the signal as it goes out, and then the mac amping it on the way in, giving me a buttload more signal than i need, but since i cant find a happy level, i'm not really sure. i really dont want to resort to mic'ing my marshall... even with the volume almost off, my jcm900 is WAY too loud for apartment use. its not like i really NEED the guitar to sound perfect, i only use garageband to sketch out ideas for songs between myself and bandmates, but its really annoying to not have my customary crisp distortion. my bass player keeps telling me to use the built in amps, but, not to dis a practically free program, but the built in amps blow, at least after 10 years of marshall tube amplification they do. if anyone has any suggestions that might be helpfull on how i might resolve this, i would be your best friend for life and go to all your birthday parties

Help with email filters for an "alias email address"... Please!!

Hello All...
This is my first post to the BB Community! I've always been able to find the help I needed without needing to post!!!
But now I have a problem that I could not find the answer to, and I am hoping that someone will be able to guide me.
Here's the situation:
I have an email address for my business ([email protected]) set up on my Tour. It is a standard POP account.
I do work for a client, who has given me an alias email address ([email protected]) that forwards to the above address.
I want to continue to have th emails come to my Outlook account on my PC (or I can check it through webmail if needed), but I do not want these emails to come through my Blackberry.
I am thinking that I need to set up a filter of some sort to keep these specific emails from clogging up my Blackberry.
I tried setting up a filter which I called Client.
In the filter from line, I added [email protected])
And in the Action settings, I checked the button for "Do not forward message to the device"
I then sent an email to [email protected] I would think that it would not get through, but I got the email anyway.
I figure that I must be doing something wrong. Of course, there is always the remote possibility that what I am trying to do is NOT possible!
Can anyone help me?
Thank you,
Bonni

Greetings, and welcome to the BlackBerry.com Community Support Forums.
OK, I understand your overall need.
IF your "[email protected]" address forward automatically to "[email protected]", then you have to understand a filter set in the BlackBerry BIS email setup does NOT see the email as coming from the @client.com address. So it will not filter it.
What I suggest is this... forget about the filters and such. Go create yourself some new gmail account for the "[email protected]" to forward to. It will be much simpler. Much much.
