Need help using WiFi on my BB 8900 while abroad! Please help

Hello everyone, 
I am an O2 UK costumer spending the holidays in France. Since I arrived 3 days ago, I've been using my house's WiFi network to access facebook, BBM, e-mails etc and it worked just fine.
Last night, I briefly put another SIM card (Orange - France) in my unlocked blackberry, and immediately realised that Internet wasn't working anymore. I thought it came from the new SIM so I put the O2 one back in, (the one that was working just fine). But it didn't come back.
I saw several messages similar to this one, but so far no solution has solved the problem.
I tried changing the browser configuration to Hotspot Browser, deleted my saved WiFi connection and put in back in, re-booted the device several times, turning all connections off then back on, but nothing does it. 
My phone seems to be connected to my network just fine, although the Wifi sign stays grey and not white (like it used to be when it was working).
The weirdest thing is: Although I can't use BBM, receive e-mails or browse the Internet, I can still access Facebook (but I don't receive notifications). 
If anyone has an idea on how to fix it, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks a billion and happy holidays!

I'm not sure there's a way to check then. You have to have the device connected to get into the Sync options to see which program is set to sync with the BlackBerry.
If you check out this link look in the "Organizer Support" section. You'll see all the programs that the Desktop Manager 4.7 can sync with

  • Help needed about using wifi

    Please can somebody tell me in words of one syllable exactly what I need to start using an ipad for surfing the internet?  I want to use it to access web pages while I'm out and about.  Do I need a contract with a phone carrier?  Does it need to be a mobile phone carrier?  Could I use my landline number if I have broadband access on that?
    I just can't work out whether I can use the ipad straight away without doing anything or whether I need to involve a mobile or landline/broadband supplier.
    Please help - I'm soo confused.

    a Local area network also called LAN network is what most people use in their house
    it's cables you connect 1 or more computers to get Internet and  access files from eachother
    wifi id 100% that!
    just without the cable
    you have wifi router with a password on
    you go into the settings on the ipad and choose the wifi router name on the list and type in the password
    and you're able to go online
    if you are not within reach of your wifi network you need to reply on public wifi networks if any are aviable where you are at the given time some would be free some would require you to pay them for service
    you only need to contact a phone carrier if you don't wish to use wifi because you have an ipad which along side wifi support 3g internet then you need to contact a carrier and get a micro sim and a contract
    if you already have an mobile phone which qualify as a smart phone you may be able to use that as a wifi hotspot to get on the internet using the phone but in some places this require you to pay extre to your phone contract

  • Trying to use Flash8...... [please help]

    Hi all,
    I am not able to use flash in my browser for some strange
    reason all of a sudden.
    When i goto the adobe site to download flash8 it says that it
    is installed but when i goto to a site that tries to display flash
    video i get a message saying that i need to install flash
    again?....
    PLEASE HELP....
    thx

    Why is that whenever Adobe tries to do something, it makes an
    otherwise easy task difficult? Cool Edit used to be a very easy
    tool for audio editing. Adobe buys it, calls it Adobe audition and
    takes a nice 4 track mixer and turns it into 128 tracks. Who needs
    that many tracks except Phil Spector, and he's busy.
    I can't get Adobe Flash to work on my computer. Who knows
    why. I've tried to install it dozens of times. But until Adobe gets
    it right, I can't even log onto a Toyota website, because I can't
    get past the first page.
    Great going, Adobe. What are you going to mess up
    next?

  • HT5538 I bought my iPad at the pawnshop and I need to sign out the old Apple ID can you please help me what else can I do

    I bought my I pad at the pawnshop and I need to sign out the previous Apple ID could you please help me with this

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

    Some keys don't work as expected
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Speech.
    Click the Text to Speech tab.
    If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
    Click the Universal Access pane in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab.
    Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
    In the Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Unable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
    If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
    If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
    Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
    Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
    If the keyboard is connected and detected by Mac OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
    Start from the Mac OS X Install Disc, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu and test the keys which were previously not working.  If the keys work while started from the Install disc, then the keyboard itself is working correctly.  Use Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue to isolate the software issue that may be causing the keys to not respond.

  • Dear All, I can't play flash videos from any web site through firefox because it freezes but when i run firefox as administrator then it works fine (But Google Chrome Plays all videos normally.) . I am using Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Please help

    Dear All,
    Firefox hangs when i try to play flash videos from any site but when i run firefox as administrator it works fine. (but Google Chrome, Opera & I.E9 Plays videos without running as administrator.) I am using Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Please help.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Normally, you just connect the monitor to the MacBook using a VGA adaptor that you can buy from an Apple Store.  Now try System Preferences > Displays > Detect Displays.  You should now be able to select a display mode for the monitor.  If it still doesn't work, then I'd check that everything is properly connected.  I've had problems with colours disappearing due to a faulty connection in the VGA adaptor.

  • I need help with XML Gallery Fade in out transition. somebody please help me :(

    I need help with XML Gallery Fade in out transition. somebody please help me
    I have my post dont want to duplicate it

    The problem doesn't lie with your feed, although it does contain an error - you have given a non-existent sub-category. You need to stick to the categories and sub-categories listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#categories
    Subscribing to your feed from the iTunes Store page work as such, but the episodes throw up an error message. The problem lies with your episode media files: you are trying to stream them. Pasting the URL into a browser produces a download (where it should play the file) of a small file which does not play and in fact is a text file containing (in the case of ep.2) this:
    [Reference]
    Ref1=http://stream.riverratdoc.com/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
    Ref2=http://70.33.177.247:80/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
    You must provide a direct link to the actual mp3 file. Streaming won't work. The test is that if you paste the URL of the media file (as given in the feed) into the address bar of a browser it should play the file.

    If you had important info on it, you should have made backups so you would not lose the data.
