Synching Blackberry bridge and native email/calendar/contacts

Is there any way to synchronise between the bridge and the native email/contacts/calendar on the playbook? I prefer the playbook's email etc but don't always have the playbook with me, so I end up putting new contacts etc on my bb phone. What I would like to do is synchronise the new contacts etc onto the playbooks native apps when the two devices are connected by bluetooth.

I just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS6 and now my calendar, contacts, etc. are gone. Is there any way to get this info back?

I just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS6 and now my calendar, contacts, notes, etc. are gone. Is there any way to get that information back? I thought those things were automatically backed up in the first step of the update process.

The only restore I can find is from 2010.

Bluetooth, Blackberry bridge and Playbook not linking to Q10

Please.....
After checking settings and browsing the Internet for possible problems or fixes, I'm having frustrating problems in linking my phone and playbook when they worked fine before a few wks back, does anyone know if this has been a recent problem or if this has been resolved, it does seem a waste of my 64gb playbook if I can no longer use Blackberry bridge (link from Q10 still doesn't do what it is meant to do as it did with me 9800) or bluetooth link up? Please i'm going spare here trying to fix or search for updates that always say 'unavailable for this device', starting to regret getting my new Q10 that i've had for 3mths where bridge doesn't work, bluetooth doesn't get connected properly and useful apps are not available for new Q10 device, my playbook worked wonders with my 9800!

Your Playbook will never work with the Q10 like it did with with your 9800. That's just the way it is.
I would try disconnecting both devices, unpair them, and then reboot both devices and reconnect using the Bridge app. Once they do connect about all you can do access the Internet on the Playbook using your Q10.

Blackberry bridge and curve 9220

I am trying to set up the blackberry bridge on my curve 9220. However, when I click on the download, I get the message that;
"Sorry, your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Blackberry Bridge"
ANy suggestions? Is it something my company may have disabled? The blackberry is a firm issued one. Or is it my network service provider?
Thanks

Shutting down or restarting my Pre causes software to change and limit email/text/contact functionality.

Hi all,
I just got back from a two week vacation, which happened to be just about a week after 1.4. First off, before my vacation, I noticed a couple of weird things happening:
Universal search wasn't working, except for applications and phone numbers. So if I slid open my phone and started typing, I'd get no contact results and no option to search the web/wikipedia/etc. Searching for something like "contact" would bring up a result for the contacts app though
Clicking on the messaging app would register on the screen like I had clicked on it and it was about to open up, but it would never actually follow through. It didn't lock the phone up, it just registered that you had clicked on it and never did anything about it. This meant no messages of any sort, including text messages .
Certain folks phone numbers had disappeared. Not everyone, but a few scattered throughout. Their contact information remained, just sans phone number.
When opening the email application, am greeted with simply a white page, and the +app button in the lower left. Going to accounts, my two emails accounts aren't accounted for at all( gmail and a work imap ). Unable to re-add either account.
So I figure something's gone wonky in the 1.4 update and that before I go off traveling for two weeks, I'll just hard reset it to make sure everything works. I do that, everything seems to work fine, grab my spare battery and I'm off. Unfortunately, no luck. I'm in Washington DC and all the same problems are popping up. Especially bad not being able to get text messages. Fortunately, internet and the phone application work. I took it in to a repair store, and they told me I was going to need to replace my phone, but they wouldn't be able to get one to me until after I had already went off to NYC.
So I get to NY, my phone still isn't working - though all of the above problems aren't totally consistent. Sometimes it seems like everything is working. Sometimes all of the problems are happening at the same time. I run the diagnostic tests and get a result of 100- bad memory. So I finally get a new phone from Sprint in Brooklyn, and get everything set back up. Hurray for the cloud and palm profile here - saved me oodles of time and was pretty close to seamless. Except for the random deleted phone numbers. Anyway, everything seems to be working fine, no issues. My battery ends up running low on me later that night, so I shut it down and put in my backup battery.
Bam! Back to the same issues. Now mind you, this is on a new phone from Sprint( I watched him switch it over, so I'm certain they didn't just tell me I was getting a new one ). The only things that are the same are my batteries, the back( it's a touchstone backpiece ) and my profile. The issues seem to occur with both of my batteries, and the sprint guy seemed to think they were in ok shape. I can't imagine it's the backplate, though I haven't tried with a different one yet. So I'm left thinking it's my profile.
Now the odd part - very consistently after a reset my phone works beautifully. The first time I shut it down or restart it the issues pop up and don't go away. I've tried canceling all of my applications from loading, deleting all installed applications( installed via the app store only ), etc with no success. It's kinda driving me nuts now. It doesn't seem to be hardware based, the sprint store guys haven't been very helpful past replacing the phone the first time, and I'm not sure where to go next.
TL;DR: I'm having phone issues that appear to be related to my palm profile and am unsure as to how to go about solving them.
Thanks,
Ryan

Thanks for the help.
I've done as you've suggested and so far it seems to be working. It's been about 30 hours now, I've drained the battery all they way down once, and when I get home this evening I'll try shutting down and switching to my backup battery just to double check that that works. Otherwise, it certainly seems as if it's a profile issue.
So, if that is the case, is it going to be possible to get my contact information that was stored on my old profile? I don't really use the calendar too much, so that's not a huge issue, but I would also like to get my paid apps back too if possible, or some sort of credit so I can buy them again.
Thanks again for the help,
Ryan
Edit: I just swapped out batteries and as expected, everything still works so does look like the profile.

BlackBerry 8800 and adding Email Account

Hello Guys, Can somebody give me a hand here? I’ve just purchased a BlackBerry 8800 phone and inserted a Orange Pay as you Go Sim Card in. During the setup process on email I only have 2 options – I WANT TO USE A WORK EMAIL ACCOUNT and I WANT TO SKIP EMAIL SETUP. Can any explain how our introduce the option to add an email account Many thanks

Hi There and welcome to the forum
Instead of setting your BIS up via the phone, you can go to your carrier's BIS site via your PC to do so. You can find your carrier's site from this page: http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/Where_can_I_log_into_my_BIS_account%3F
One of the reason you do not have the BIS setup option from your phone may due to your carrier didn't provision BIS for your account on the RIM relay, contact them and do confirm.

Can I sync my personal pop and exchange server calendar/contacts ??

The "genius" at Apple Store says no, but others have said yes. I am using Outlook for my personal email/contacts/calendar and an exchange server outlook for my business email/contacts/calendar. I would like to be able to sync both outlook profiles. I can get email from both pop and iMap accounts, but it seems that I can only sync one calendar and contacts. When I activated active sync, it synced my exchange server info, but I have no way to sync my Outlook Pop account. Active sync was about to overwrite the other info. Any thoughts?

With your iPhone connected with iTunes, check under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences.
3.0 included the ability to sync contacts and calendars direct with the supported application(s) on your computer along with syncing contacts and calendars over the air - at least with a MobileMe account. I'm not sure if the same is available when syncing contacts and calendars OTA with an Exchange account, but it should be.

Cannot get in to email, calendar,contacts settings. Email keeps checking for mail. Any suggestions?

Mail, contacts, calendar settings will not open. My email keeps searching for mail. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press the On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, to restart press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).

Lost my Outlook for Mac 2011 and all emails, calendar, etc. after moving and trashing some files

I followed some suggestions for improving speed and ran the EtreCheck and removed some items. I didn't touch anything Microsoft or Outlook related. My mac got hung-up last night when I was trying to put it to sleep so I had to force quit some programs, one of which was Outlook, and then I shut down the mac rather than sleep mode. This morning I no longer had any of my emails, or my calendar, or excel files, etc. I couldn't get any new emails because it said the server did not recognize or acknowledge my user accounts or passwords. I went to the ISP's website and all my accounts/passwords were correct and active as I was still getting them through my iphone and ipad. Can anyone help me? I can provide the latest EtreCheck and system log showing the warnings, failures, errors, etc. if that helps!

My iPhone and iPad syncs calendar, contacts, mail. But these are not synced with my MacBook pro. I'm using latest leopard. Why?

To solve the above question, do I need to upgrade to lion?

Do recent versions of BDM sync emails as well as Calendar, Contacts etc?

Working with an 8800 and a PC with XP Pro SP2 and BDM 4.5 (just downloaded).
Single user... no Exchange Server, no BES.
Just BlackBerry, Outlook and BDM on PC.
Ealrier verisons of BDM would sync with Outlook - but only the non-email portions. i.e. if you received 50 emails on your BB, and deleted 30 of them. You could sync your device with Outlook and update Calendar and Contacts etc. but you would have to go and weed through the emails again and delete the 30 from Outlook.
At this link for BDM http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
is the sentence: "Synchronize your email and organizer information (calendar, contacts, memos and tasks) between your BlackBerry smartphone and your PC"
Does this mean that BDM now handles reconciling emails as well?

I read that to mean email (information) and organizer INFORMATION, not email content.
Just my opinion!

Transfer email, calendar etc from Outlook PC to Outlook Mac

Hi all,
I've had a look around for this but can't seem to find a solid answer and I'm concerned that something will be missed.
I need to transfer all email, calendar, contacts etc from Outlook 2007 on Windows to Outlook 2011 on a Mac. Could anyone point me in the right direction please?
Many thanks

My iphone contacts got synced with my daughter's ipod contacts and she deleted my contacts and now they are gone from my iphone. How do I recover my contacts?

First, your daughter needs her own iCloud account, otherwise her ipod will sync will all your data (email, calendars, contacts...). If you have a backup or a copy on your computer, you could turn off iCloud syncing on your iphone, then restore from your contacts via iTunes. After you get a new account for daughter, you can then turn on iCloud.
