Sim phone book missing
Hope someone can help. I won the Blackberry Z10 phone (it's awesome!) and am learning to use it. I previously had the Tour 9630 (yeah...finally caught up) wanted to transfer my contacts. As per instruction to copy contacts from my SIM card to my old device's built in storage in my contact list on my old phone I should go to Contacts, then Menu > Sim Phone Book > Copy All To Contact. What's the problem? I don't see "Sim Phone Book" step when I hit the menu key! Where is it or if it is hidden, how do I retrieve it??? Help!!!
You should open your BlackBerry Address Book or Contacts.
Scoll down in the menu listing to SIM Phone Book. You should see it adjacent to "Filters".

Hello everyone! Does anyone out there know how to export all contacts (stored on device memory) onto your SIM card? I know how to import contacts FROM a SIM card but I can't find an easy way of saving all contacts to a SIM card other than saving them one by one. Thanks.

www.berryreview.comUnfortunately that is the only way at the moment - one at a time. Do you just want to have a backup of your contacts data? If so it would be easier to use the Backup and Restore feature of the Desktop Manager to backup your BlackBerry data to a file on your computer. This way it can be restored to that device or any other BlackBerry.

Pearl 8110 can't copy phone book in SIM to phone
For some reason I can not copy the contents of my SIM phone book to the "Contacts" phone book. I go through the steps listed and it looks like the contents are being coppied but when I go to the Contacts list it shows no contents. I do not know if I did something wrong or the firm ware has gone south. I have taken the battery out and then replaced it trying to restore it to factory setting but that did not seem to work. I am running V4.5.0.182
I hope someone can help.
Thanks,
John

Go to Solution.Hi John1942 and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
Its possible you may have a Filter set in your BlackBerry® smartphone's Address Book. From the Address Book, press the menu key and choose Filter. If there are any boxes checked, remove the check mark then check the Address Book again.
Thanks.

Contact numbers - sim nr's missing on phone
Hi. Kindly assist please. I am using a Blackberry Torch 9800, previously owned by my daughter. A lot of my contact nr's on my sim, does not appear on phone. I also need to know where and how do I get a bbm pin number.
Hello Kruie
In the contact list, press the Menu key> SIM Phone Book.
Press the Menu key> Copy All To Contacts.
Note: If you try to copy a SIM card contact with a phone number that matches the number of a contact that already appears in your contact list, your BlackBerry ® smartphone does not copy the SIM card contact.
The PIN number will send you the people you want to add to BBM
If you want to see what your PIN mypin write the word and show your PIN.
Regards.

i recently got my blackberry pearl and im having some problems with it
i go to my address book and its saying 'no addresses' so i put on in it and saved but when i go back to the address book it still says 'no addresses' so then i found out how to switch to sim card phone book and copy them to phonebook from there and it says it was doing it but then when i went back to phone book it still says 'no addresses'
how can i move my contacts from my sim to my adresses book without having to go in and find them in my sim card?
Solved!
Go to Solution.You can do them all at one time, by accessing your SIM card at Address Book > Menu > SIM Phone Book > Copy all .
Then after, back in the address book, make sure at Address Book > Menu > Filters, that NO filters are checked.

Then from where did you think you could recover your data? -
I have had several issues with my contacts on this phone. I cannot figure out how to send my contacts to the at&t phone book or to my sim card. The options/menu button in contacts is completely useless. It should give me the option on the sim card to transfer contacts form one list to another. I have already written on another forum about the contact list not letting me unsync one of my email contact lists and how I have 3 copies of all of my contacts because my email contacts are mixed in with my phone contacts.
BB really needs to fix this issue with the contact list because it is beyond frustrating. I even downloaded the new BB software today and it still hasn't been fixed.OK...so this post is strictly about wanting to send your contacts to the SIM. That capability is one at a time only. And there's a reason for that.
The BB Address Book is robust, allowing you to have one name with multiple phone numbers and addresses. The SIM phonebook, on the other hand, is much less capable...if, for instance, you have one contact with three phone numbers in your BB Address Book, the SIM phonebook would require three separate entries to contain the same data (with the obvious duplication of the name on three separate records).
So, I must ask...why on earth do you want to send your contacts to your SIM? There are much better methods for moving your contacts from the BB to somewhere else...

How to copy all contacts from Phone Book to SIM Ca...
Dear All,
How will I copy all my Phone Book contacts from the N72 Memory to SIM Card.
Thanks.
D.Mukherjee.Go to contacts > options > mark all > copy to SIM memory.
The phone will not copy all the data for contacts with multiple entries. It will only copy the 1st line.

Reading phone book from SIM card
Hi,
Is there any API or programming framework that supports importing the phonebook from the SIM card. I am using java wireless toolkit and nokia 9500. I need to import the phone book from the sim card.
Thanks in advance.I think maybe you can see JSR177.It has defined the APDU and STK way to access sim card.But I don't think it's good for your requirement.

HOW TO VIEW PHONE BOOK ON PCSUITE?
My Nokia N70 fell to the ground and the screen is history. Phone works fine but i cant see a thing, just a constant shiny white glow
In the meanwhile i have another older model, nokia 3120 which i inserted the SIM. Many of my phonebook numbers are missing
I have been told this is because those missing numbers are on my N70 phone memory card and not the SIM, sounds logical.
Ok, next step. How can i transfer those phone memory numbers to my sim card if i cant see a thing on the screen? I cant! Next step: Transfer phone memory data to PC via PCSuite using backup. I do it, all seems fine, i go to content copier file and i have a large .nbu file. I want to see those missing phone numbers on my pc and i dont know how to...
My question is:
How do i see my phone book numbers on my pc?
There must be a way!
What other solutions are there?
Please help! this is a very urgent matter
ThanksIn phone browser, click Contacts & refresh (F5 or View>Refresh) If there is anything accessible it'll show up. A Updating dialog box pops up with dots flying to & from the phone & PC. Else it seems you'll need Nokia's dealer support or maybe try & buy Noki. The database file could be damaged or erased. It does not show up in the phone browser directly as a file.
Had a similar problem some years back lost 300+ contacts, re-building that was fun... since then I export a .csv file from Outlook and copy the .vcf files to my memory card every week. In addition have subscription to PLAXO which backs up Outlook to the web.
Hope this helps -
This Forum stuff is new to me, so not sure i'm doing this correctly. I have just bought a 3G i-phone. When i bluetooth it to my car (Audi A6) the phone works fine (handsfree etc) but i cannot access my phone book via the car system. Is this a car problem, phone problem, or a me problem? Help please!
As others have posted, it seems that the iPhone (both original and 3G models) only officially supports the Hands-Free Profile (HFP) and Headset Profile (HSP) hence the phonebook and other problems.
However, I also had a first generation iPhone and it worked perfectly with my 2007 A6 Allroad ... full access to phonebook, recent calls, missed calls ... the whole nine yards.
I have the same problem as you with the 'new and improved' iPhone 3G. I can pair from the phone to the car and get a very basic functionality (i.e. no phonebook or call register). If I recall correctly, you need to initiate the pairing the other way round ... i.e. starting from the car. When successful the phonebook is copied as part of the initial pairing. I can't get this part to work for me as the iphone is invisible to the Audi even though the iphone says it is 'discoverable'.
Applecare will just give you the standard line about not being able guarantee to support every phone out there.
If the 3G is working with other car makes (BMW and the like ...) then it might be an Audi problem. They seem to have created a workaround for the original iPhone's shortcomings so let's hope the can do it again for the 3G

Syncing phone book/contacts from iphone 3GS to Iphone4
Hey,
I just got the iphone 4 - put in the smaller sim card required and am now wondering how do I transfer my phone book from my previous 3GS to the new sim card/phone.
My old computer crashed, and am using my laptop on which I just installed Itunes.I believe the best way is to use iTunes to sync the contacts from your 3GS into a 3rd party program such as Outlook. Then, use iTunes to sync the contacts from Outlook to your new iPhone 4.

Hi,
Im badly need serious help about this.
I was usin n-gage (not QD) then after i backup my n-gage settings i saved the "Backup.arc" in my PC then i sold my n-gage to get 5300 now im using 5300,
The problem is i noticed 2 days ago i didnt save all my contact numbers to SIM Card but it is on n-gage phone memory gosh now all i have is just my "Backup.arc" maybe it contain my contact numbers in there.
So, How to Convert "Backup.arc" into 5300 Phone book? (I think there must be a way to do this)
please help me
Thank You.Use PC Suite to copy files from your PC to the phone, or use an USB memory card reader.
There's also "msvdrivee" (or "mvsdrivee"), but it is not supported and doesn't seem to be very safe, either. (It is supposed to let you change the default memory from phone memory to the memory card for messages.)
Of course, on an N-Gage it gets a bit problematic, if you need to swap memory cards to play games (an incoming message will not have a place where to go, if the wrong memory card is inserted).
If you want the risk, use your favourite Internet search engine to find the program. -
Transfer of Existing Phone Book
Usually when the sim card is transferred over to a new phone all the phone book info stays intact. I transferred my sim card from my existing AT&T account phone to my new IPhone but the names and numbers from my phone book do not show up. Can anyone explain why this is, I do not have that information on my computer.
AngelSo I take it I then will have to manually input all of those 100 plus names ans phone# again??? Wow...bummer!
Why not enter all your phone numbers / contacts into your computers address book / contacts and then sync it to your iphone. That way you have them saved on your computer for future needs and the syncing process will bring them all over to the phone.
Contacts
Since iPhone takes contact information from existing applications on your computer, Apple recommends using Address Book, Entourage, Outlook, Outlook Express, or Yahoo! Address Book to prepare your contacts for automatic synchronization with iPhone, and suggests you get phone numbers and e-mail addresses up to date. Notes that you can also enter contact information directly into iPhone, as well.
