How to switch from Z10 to Q10

I have a Z10 and want to switch to Q10
i tried through the Blackberry Link, but once i connect the Q10 it doesn't transfer the backup, i even feel that the backup itself is not complete as it reaches to 38% and it suddenly finishes

Hello shadisamra,
Thank you for your question regarding the backup issue you are experiencing with BlackBerry Link.
Are you using the device switch process or backing and then attempting to do a direct restore. Does the freezing at 38% occur when backing up the BlackBerry Z10 smartphone?

HELP! Switching data from Z10 to Q10

Hi!
Need help, during switching from Z10 to Q10, BBLink writes "new device have older soft than old" .
Is there any chance to do it???
Btw in Czech there is not Q10 in carrier offer.

Hey Damirdz,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
If you do a switch device wizard the backup will overnight any data that is on the BlackBerry Q10. You can not merge the data during a switch device wizard.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

Is there any RIM rep. in here? Did they notice what's happening? I can't move data from Z10 to Q10

Is there any of RIM representative here???
I know this is a common issue, I see many members from forums, here, crackberry, and many others experiencing problems with BlackBerry Link.
1. I can't switch device from Z10 to Q10, 1st it says my Q10 has old software, I have updated to the latest, now it says please make sure my device is connected and retry, I press retry and always failed to detect (for restore data from Z10 backup to Q10) other than that, it can detect my Q10.
2. To restore data from backup you have to sign in to BlackBerry ID first and it makes your BBM contact transferred without the others, contact, SMS, calendar, notes, alarms, settings, etc. I'm thinking of moving back to Z10 and afterwards all my open chats in Z10 just disappear, I still have importants chat containing appointments, addresses, price negotiation, hotel reservations, argh this is frustrating because every time I wanted to restore to new device it will ask to sign in again, and how is it going to decide which is my valid PIN on the other side of my BBM's contact if I keep switching device like this back and forth..
Why can't it be like the old days of OS 4, 5, 6, 7 and 7.1?
Where we can make full or partial backups and restore it to any device and any OS?
Didn't you make a proper test and research before releasing OS10 and BlackBerry Link on the market? (This question goes to RIM's rep. where ever you are)
If you wanna make all of your customers run away because your and software have issues, you've made it
This is my last bad experience with BlackBerry prior to OS10
Laughable poor camera on 9900 I can't take photos of receipts and documents, and I have to charge 3 times a day (this is supposed to be a "mobile" phones? I always ended up with dead battery when I'm mobile, and I have to stuck on charger for hours waiting to charge)
And now this .... Come on RIM do something please we really like your device...
Devices I like the most are 9700 and 9780, except for desktop manager that is not backing up auto text. Great camera, great battery life.
Btw I have use the latest release of Link but still can't restore data.
Solved!

Because BB10 was not an evolution from BBOS...it is completely new, and sadly they did not take all of the prior design considerations and use them when they created BB10 and it's associated toolsets.

That functionality, while requested by many, has not been implemented. There is no way for anyone here to know if/when it will ever be so.
It seems like the rest of your post was mostly commentary or directed at audiences not in this public user-to-user community, so I'll just leave those alone.
Good luck!

Switching from Z10 back to Bold9900

Hi,could someone give me some advice please on how to switch from my Z10 back to my Bold9900.
thanks so much
Deebeez

You can't restore an OS 10 backup to the 9900, so first, tell us what data is on your Z10 that you wish to have on your 9900?
(personally, I couldn't go backwards, this Z10 is a great device, so much faster than my OS 7 devices ever were)

Sounds like a problem for forums/support from the DB provider, as this problem is normally solved through some form of HA provided by the DB (or some cluster software, but still not Java) with, normally, a shared (virtual) IP address.

How to switch from text message to iMessage for 1 contact

I have one friend with an iPhone who all of the sudden in my messaging has switched from iMessage to text messages with working WiFi on and stable, on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.2). This is not a cellular or wifi issues, I guarantee, I am iMessaging other people without problem. She is also iMessaging other people without problem.
I have tried all work arounds I've seen on the web including:
-turning iMessage on and off, turning the phone on and off
-deleting all conversation with her and then sending a new message
-labeling the contact as an "iPhone" on my iPad (doesn't seem to switch label to "iPhone" and "iPhone" is no longer available as a label on iPhone)
-sending an iMessage on my iPad to her and then trying to use same message stream on the iPhone
This is beyond ridiculous that there is no way to switch from text to iMessage, I know how to switch from iMessage to text when the "error" comes up that it can't be sent as in iMessage. Any ideas?

You didn't mention trying these two steps:
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
Back up and restore your device as new.
... which are listed as steps 4 and 5 near the middle of this article:

Help with switching from Z10 to 9900

I would be grateful for any help on how to make a smooth switch from the Z10 to the 9900. If there are any prior posts on this please direct me. I got the Z10 the day it came out in March but my company has refused to support the Z10 and I can't do without my work mail & calendar on my phone.

Good day
What are you trying to back up if you don't mind me asking? Just your contracts?
Because your emails and calendar info you can sync to your work email address but I haven't tried to downgrade since I got BB 10's
I could be wrong!

HT2589 How to switch from one store to a different one?

I can't update the apps. There is a message saying that I need to switch from Philipines Store to the US Store. This is the first time I have this message. I don't know how to change the stores. I have my account in US and I have always purchased from the US Store. I got the same message when I tried to download a new app. What should I do?

Does your address and payment information on iTunes use a US address?
iTunes Store > Sign In, and view your account.
As I say if your address and payment information are US addresses then this is very odd. In that case contact iTunes Store Support and have them fix this.

How to switch from Bonjour to iMessage

My iChat has changed from message to Bonjour. I don't use Bonjour and I don't know how to change it back to message. Please help. Steven

your response doesn't help the overall problem. For anyone with no data plan and only using wifi like mel_222 and myself, the iphone will not be able to send a message to these people who the phone has recognized as having ios5 unless the phone has a wifi connection because it is an imesssage. I am having the same problem, hopefully someone will know how to switch it. Hopefully this clarifies for anyone who might be able to answer. Luckily I will have a data plan kick in in a week, but I am sure some people who buy the phone outright will be faced with this issue.
