How do I TRANSFER / BACKUP text messages from my 9800 to my PC?

I'm new to BLACKBERY, and I have a 9800 TORCH on which I have several TEXT message conversations that I want to transfer / backup to my PC. I've got he BLACKBERRY Desktop sw installed, but I cannot locate the text messages. Please advise. Jon

You can use blackberry protect.  it backups text messages online.  The link for it is in my signature.
You can also check app world for an app that can forward the sms to an email address.  Here is an example of a free one but check around:

You can also keep the messages forever on the blackberry by setting the option.

    You can't. What you could do is import your SMS's from your Nokia to your computer, save them as a PDF, then import the PDF to your iPhone. That way you'd have them for reference on your phone, but there is no way to import them to the iPhone message app.

  • Transfer only text messages from backup

    I have a Q5 and I did a software update on my phone few hours ago. Everything worked well except that my text messages are all gone.
    I have taken backup but how do I only restore text messages from backup. Please help

    Kacper,
    Using itunes you are able to restore from a previuosly backedup IOS. However, it's not possible to 'cherry pick' what it is you will be restoring from the backup. The backup is stored in a compressed file which requires extraction prior to using it.

    good luck.

  • HT4859 how do I restore deleted text messages from an iCloud backup?

    I mistakenly deleted an important text conversation - swiping and deleting the wrong conversation.   My iphone is backed up to icloud, but not on my conputer.  Are there steps I can take to restore the deleted text messages from the icloud backup?  If so what are they and where will I find the restored messages after the process?   Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Hi again - thank you very much for the feedback.  It is actually a conversation over 3 days that is quite important so if I can recover it, I would like to.  
    As for the actual process, the most recent back up was prior to my deletion.   Three last questions (I hope...):
    1) How will I know what I need to redownload from itunes?
    2) Is this link the best in terms of the literal steps to take to do the restore: 
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    3) Is there anything I should do to the phone before I begin the restore process?
    Again, thank you for your time - very much appreciate the expert advice.

  • How to transfer contacts & text messages from 6230...

    I have recently bought a 5230 Navi and also transferred from Virgin to 3 because the phone I bought, via eBay, although brand new and never used was locked to 3 and apparently the 5230 is difficult to get unlocked other than through 3.
    Can anyone give me a step by step procedure for the easiest and quickest way to transfer my contacts and text message from my old phone to my new phone.
    I tried to do a backup with Nokia Phone Suite but it didn't seem to write my contacts or messages to it's file.
    Thanks

    Just try it.. Even if the old phone does not have it; when you start 'Phone Switch' it will prompt you that the old phone does not have it but do you want to send the application to the old phone? ...and  when you select 'yes' the application is sent thru' sms... and you may be able to install it on the old phone and perform the switch... ( your old phone should atleast be compatible for this though...)
