Hey Tosin29188,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
Are you able to locate this folder when accessing the media card from a PC or Mac? Also are the pictures files renamed to a different extension? (For example: Picture.rem)
Are you able to open the media files up on a computer?
I look forward to your reply.
Cheers.

Lost all contacts & messages after updating to Bel...

Can anyone help please?? Nokia Ovi Suite said it was backing up before installing - in fact I couldn't load the new software without it. I can see the obscure backup file on my laptop. Have lost all my contacts and messages on my phone. Does anyone know how I can restore the backup file? Tried to synch thru Suite but it had same information as my phone - not the backup details, which seems completely pointless! Help please - thanks!

Have you ever synchronized your phone's contacts, messages, calendar, photos, etc. with Nokia Suite before upgrading to Belle?
If you did, then you can have them back by synchronizing again. If you didn't then I'm sorry to tell you you've lost that info, but even in this scenario you have one last chance; that is by restoring the info previously backed up from your phone with Nokia Suite. Do not restore your apps, just restore contacts, calendar and messages if they are available.
Hope it helps.
Cheers!!!

URGENT, I WILL THROW IT IN THE BIN! I cant see the messages on my blackberry curve 8520?

when i recive a message the light doesnt flash and it doesnt make a sound and it doesnt vibrate. It does this even when i have it on load. What do i do to fix it?
When i goto the messages app, i cant even see the messages, it only comes up with ones i already have read and not the new ones. What do i do with this?
do i need to change something on settings or what?
i have tried: sms>options>general options>sms and email inboxes>separate. This worked once but after that it didnt make a difference, i still couldnt see any of the neww sms or emails.
what did i do about the red light not flashing when i have a message and it not making a sound even though it is on loud and not silent? it doesnt even vibrate.

Hi Stevels,
I just posted it awhile ago but nobody seems to care to help.
We are a community of ordinary BB users so it relies on someone logging in and having the knowledge or intent to help. Sadly, most people post a problem and do not return. Yet it is a massive resource for learning about BB's.
Oh, and I was at the dentist when you posted.

Remove all information completely from a Blackberry Curve 8520?

my relative upgraded her phone and gave the phone to me. I'm getting rid of all information. But the email address is still on the phone.
Is there a way to reset the entire phone so everything is gone?
Also what does the 4 side buttons do?
Thanks.

You may also want to check with the person you got the device from to make sure they have removed the PIN number from their BlackBerry Internet Service account. If they did not then you may still end up with the email address on the device and you may not be able to add your own email addresses.

Lost all contact info. All my Aps are there but all the data/progress is missing. When I plug my iphone into the usb fto synch up with my itunes on the computer a message comes up and says "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup file". This is very frustrating

I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two. Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

Ihone 4s lost all contacts. I tried to restore from backup but the error message now says there is not enough room. I have deleted all the apps without making any more room on iphone. Why did contact disappear and how do I get them back?

In the simplest sense, archiving a file means making a copy that you never change and never discard. You already know how to do that.
iPhoto has built-in archival features, in the sense that it saves all versions of an image that you've modified. As long as you have adequate backups, you don't necessarily have any reason to archive an iPhoto library. If you want to delete images from the working library but still have access to them in case you change your mind, then you do need to archive those images. I don't have a specific suggestion as to how you should do that. You might post a question in the iPhoto forum.

I upgraded from 4S to Iphone 5 but i lost all my messages how can i get them back on the new device ?i did back up using the icloud ?

i upgraded from 4S to Iphone 5 but i lost all my messages how can i get them back on the new device ?i did back up using the icloud ?

If you made a backup using icloud, then restore your 5 to that backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859

I-phone 2.0 update - lost all contacts

This a.m. did the 2.0 update and lost all contacts. Calender good, photos good, notes good, mail good. Did not have on PC but part of download said "backing up information" WHERE?
Did 2nd I-phone right after, before checking the first one, and that download went 100% not loosing anything!
Contacts where different on each phone.

A very similar problem happened to me. Had some issues during the update which I think may have initially caused the problem. Anyway, that was a couple weeks ago. Just today I was trying to figure out a way to restore it again and I got it. Before the 2.0 software is updated the iPhone automatically backups everthing. To restore your contacts, calendar, photos, text messages, and settings following these steps:
1. Open iTunes on the same computer you performed the update on.
2. Connect your iPhone.
3. Right-click on your phone ("Your name's iPhone") under "Devices" in the left column.
4. Left-click on "Restore from Backup..."
5. Select your phone from the drop-down menu.
6. Click Restore.
As I said, this should restore your contacts, calendar, photos, text messages, and settings to the way they were before you updated it. It does NOT revert your phone to pre-2.0 software. The new 2.0 firmware will remain in place!
Hope this works for you!
Let me know if you're successful!!

Lost all contacts etc after downloading the new software please help

i downloaded the new softward today and have now lost all contacts pictures messages etc iphone was backed up but when i started the download the iphone went into restore mode. im completely at a loss. need all data back especially pictures

Did you fail to import your pics before updating?
You can try restoring from backup
You should be syncing contacts with your computer regularly. Have you failed to do this?

Lost all contacts and dial pad on iphone 3gs after update

Hi, please can someone help, ive lost all contacts and the abillity to add , also my dial pad wont work, all after update , i cant even re ad contacts through my messages.

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service. For some reason, are you not using the device as designed?
As for other issues... basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?

Lost all contacts when manually adding new ones

Lost all contacts when manually entering new ones, how do I get them back? This is 2nd time this happened

Same thing happened to me this evening. I had 1700 contacts and was editing several contacts adding birthday and anniversay dates. After entering dates successfully into the second contact, I did a search for a third contact and got "no results". That's when I noticed that I had no contacts - not a single one. Tried turning iPad 2 off and then back on - but no joy - zero contacts. Not even an error message or beep or system reset - contacts just disappeared. I suspect they are still on the device, but the Contact app link to the contact database file on solid state hard disk becomes corrupted.
APPLE - This is a HUGE bug that needs to be fixed IMMEDIATELY!
I have iPad 2 - 64gb - 3G/Verizon with 30 GB free. ios 4.3.3
I hadiTunes set to sync my Contacts with Google Mail
Additional info
- Resyncing with iTunes restored 1752 contacts
- I had recently used (24 hours earlier) "Dup Remover" app which worked beautifully, I which I have used successfully on my iPhone. To be clear - running Dup Remover did NOT cause this problem, but I mention as this loss of contacts may occur as a result of a unique set of actions on iPad 2.

What does "I caught my phone 4" mean?
All contacts, calendars, photos etc should be on your computer as the iphone is designed to be synced to your computer.
Just sync them to your new iphone.
iPhone: Transferring information from your current iPhone to a new iPhone

Please define "unlocked iphone 4". It is not clear what, exactly, you did or how it would have affected anything.
