i am unable to transfer my contacts from my ms outlook to my new blackberry 8900 curve. how do i go about doing this since i've lost my phone and am handicapped without my contacts

Hi there!
With the limited information in your post ("unable to transfer" is pretty sparse information), I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchornizing via USB):
KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
5) Install DTM to your PC
6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
7) Start the organizer configuration over:
KB17022 How to configure organizer applications for synchronization using BlackBerry Desktop Manager
Hopefully that will get things going again.
Good luck and let us know!

  • Transfer of contacts from Iphone to Outlook

    I have an Iphone 3GS and Outlook on my laptop. Outlook has collapsed and while we have recovered the emails all the contacts have disappeared. I have the contacts on my Iphone, as up to the time Outlook collapsed I was syncing on a regular basis. How do I safely transfer my contacts from the Iphone to Outlook? I only ask as I know that Outlook overwrites the appointments in the Iphone calendar and I would not want Outlook to overwrite my Iphone contacts with an empty contact file. Many thanks.

    Put at least one contact in Outlook. This entry can be fake, that doesn't matter, the important point is that Outlook not be empty. With your phone connected, iTunes running, right-click in the device pane & select "Reset Warnings". When you hit the sync button, you should get a merge or replace prompt regarding your contacts, select merge.

  • How can I transfer my Contacts from one partition to another

    Hi. I want to transfer my contacts from Mountain Lion  on one partition, to Mountain lion on another.  I have a lot of junk on the first one which I did not wish to transfer to the new one. Thanks. David.

    If you use an online syncing service for managing your contacts then you can simply clean up the contancts on one installation, and the changes should update on the second installation immediately. This will only work if you use iCloud, Gmail, or another service for storing your contacts.

  • How can I transfer my contact from old iphone 4 to new iphone 5S

    Hi, Please help me out to transfer my contact from my old iphone 4 to new iphone 5S, I could transfer photos only.

    Contacts should be in your supported computer contacts application.
    Did you sync with your computer befor? Check your computer's Address book/Contacts/Outlook or some other contacts application.
    * Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists. Back up your contacts to a supported personal information manager (PIM), iCloud, or another cloud-based service to avoid any potential contact data loss.

    i have more than one apple id i want to link these so i can transfer my contacts from old phone to new phone please help

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can't link your Apple IDs, all you need to do is use the same ID on all devices and your contacts etc will sync.

    I just got a new iphone and want to transfer my contacts from my old iphone, and photographs.  when I sync it has not transfered anything to the new phone.  thanks.

    In iTunes, did you click your  iPhone under "devices" then go through the tabs to set things up?  There's one setting that you need to check to sync contacts.  

  • How to transfer my contacts from samsung to iphone4

    I recently got an iphone 4 and would like to transfer my contacts from my samsung phone to my iphone. 
    Received the phone yesterday, spent half a day locked out beause of voice control which seems to come on when I go to bluetooth to try and hook up to a phone in my house.  Doesn't seem to stay off
    Can't find Siri also

    If you were acccessing a Gmail account on the Samsung syncing your Google contacts over the air, create the account with the Mail app on the iPhone turning Contacts on for over the air syncing.
    Voice Control should not come on when going to Settings > Bluetooth.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3597
    These are the bluetooth profiles the iPhone supports.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647
    Siri is supported with the iPhone 4S and later.

  • How do I transfer my contacts from my old Powerbook G4 to my new Macbook Pro?

    how do I transfer my contacts from my old Powerbook G4 to my new one Macbook Pro?
    new Macbook Pro is operating on OSX 10.8.2
    When I save it as an export then try to open it on the new computer it wants me to delete all my current contacts before it will import.
    What happened to MERGING?

    On the PowerBook G4, open Address Book and choose File > Back up Address Book...
    Save it to your Desktop or directly to the MBP if it is already connected. Otherwise copy the Address Book backup file to the MacBook Pro. Email is also an option.
    On the MacBook Pro, open (double-click) the Address Book Backup (abbu) file:
    Contacts will launch and display the following:
    Click Replace All which will do what it says.
    Using Migration Assistant to migrate from Tiger to Mountain Lion simply does not work. Tiger to Lion works, Tiger to Mountain Lion does not. Apple does not provide specific directions regarding the use of Migration Assistant from Tiger to ML, only Tiger to Lion.

    Welcome to the world of Macs. See this introduction to Macs. It might be that you need to sync your iPhone with you MBP. To do this you would connect your iPhone to your MBP which should start up iTunes so you can sync music, vids, and possibly contacts.

  • How do i transfer my contacts from a samsung galaxy to an iphone 4s

    Hi
    My wife has just got an iphone 4s and wants to transfer her contacts from her old Samsung Galaxy to her new 4s. Is there an easy way to do it?
    Regards
    Matt

    Recently, many Android users decide to change from the Android phone to an iPhone, and they want to transfer the useful data from the Android phone to iPhone. It is easy for the Android users to export the media files, such as music and movies from Android to computer, and then sync with their iPhone.
    But for the contacts or text messages, many Android users will feel confused. In fact, Android users can take advantage of Gmail (or other emails provide contacts sync function) to transfer contacts from Samsung Galaxy to iPhone 4s. The following tutorial will show you how to do it:
    Log in Gmail on your Android phone, and check the “Sync Contacts” option (If you are first time to use this method).
    Start Gmail on your computer, and then choose “Contacts” in the left sidebar.
    The Contacts will be synced to Gmail automatically. You will be able to see the contacts in the “Contacts” page.
    Create an Exchange account, and then log in it on your iPhone. You will see Contacts in the main interface. Check it and the contacts will be synced with your iPhone.

    Sorry, kcrail, this is a Community Forum.  All support is done here.  (BTW, posting your phone number in a Public Forum is somewhat akin to writing it on the wall of the bus station.  Never a good idea!)
    Since you are running Windows 2000, you most likely have a pretty old version of Windows Media Player.  Easiest thing for you to do would be to puchase a USB Card Reader that supports Micro SD cards, and simply drag and drop your music to the /AUDIO folder on the card.  Put the card back into your phone and you're done!
