Synchroniz​ing Torch 9800 contact list with my Playbook

I am trying to avoid retyping all my contacts on my Torch 9800 into the Contact on my Playbook.  Is there a way to port them from my phone to the Playbook and then sychronize them so when one changes, it automatically changes the other?

Hey pratiktnm,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
Are you setup on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server?  With the Desktop service book appearing it seems you were on one.  If you are still on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server, I would suggest creating a full backup with BlackBerry Desktop Software: www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB33505
Then proceed with a security wipe by going to Options>Security>Security Wipe and then contact your network service provider to generate a new Enterprise Activation password.  Then proceed with the enterprise activation by going to Options>Advanced Options>Enterprise Activation.
Once the activation is completed, test out the wireless synchronization of the contacts.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

  • Can I share my contacts list with family members?

    can I share my contacts list with family members in the same way as sharing tunes and photos? If so how do I go about setting this up?

    Perhaps you should read these Apple documents about what is stored by iCloud.  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview:
    Your iCloud account includes 5 GB of free storage for iCloud Mail, Documents in the Cloud, and your iOS device backups. Your purchased music, apps, books, and TV shows, as well as your photo stream, don’t count against the 5 GB of free storage ........
    Here’s what iCloud backs up:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and booksPurchased music isn’t backed up in all countries. Purchased movies and TV shows are backed up only in the U.S. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore. Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. A movie’s product details page in the iTunes Store shows if the movie is unavailable.

    How do I sync Windows 7  contact list with iphone?

    If both computers are running Lion the easiest way would be to sign up for a free iCloud account and let Apple do it for you via the cloud.

  • How can I share contact list with another MAC

    How can I share my contact list with another MAC?

    Hi,
    There does seem to be a presumption in the other reply that your girlfriend is living with you.
    A File transfer via Bonjour would then work.
    Also the File Sharing in System Preferences > Sharing would cause her computer to show up on your Finder's side bar as a Share.
    With iChat if you both have AIM Login names you could still do File Transfers.
    (It is slightly more complicated if you have Jabber ID logged in alothough not impossible).

  • How to move iPhone contact list with custom ringtones to OS X server Contacts?

    I have recently setup a new Mac Pro, Mid 2012, running Mavericks OS X Server.  I was previously syncing through iTunes on Snow Leopard, 10.6...
    Due to the changes in Mavericks WRT iTunes address book syncing, I want to setup Contacts in Server, as I do not want to use iCloud. I tried using the Address Book sync on my MacBook Pro, but that doesn't appear to save any custom ringtone data. I setup Contacts in Server & I moved the current address book to Mavericks, but dragging the contacts into the Server list in Contacts generates warnings, "Some contacts could not be copied to the server"  and then sometimes starts duplicating the groups and contacts. The system log has some errors that seem related (system & user munged):
    Jan  1 22:44:46 system.sub.domain Contacts[3203]: Error reading store metadata: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=260 "The file \u201cAddressBook-v22.abcddb\u201d couldn\u2019t be opened because there is no such file."

    So the question is:
    How to does one move or import iPhone contact list with custom ringtones to OS X server Contacts? ... and will Contacts save/preserve the ringtone settings?
    Thanks

    lsof is the standard tool for listing open files, although I'm not quite sure it'll do what you want.
    It will list every open file used by every process on the machine, including many you don't expect. I don't know how it will present files opened by network users - whether they'll appear as owned by the file sharing process or not at all. Definitely one to try.

  • How can I sync my yahoo mail contact list with my ipad2?

    How can I sync my yahoo contact list with  my iPad 2?

    Found the answer from another discussion here and it did work in about 2 minutes:
    in settings, click mail, contacts , calendars
    you need to add two accounts:
    one for mail as a Yahoo account
    another per the instructions below
    Yahoo syncs contacts by adding a CardDAV account:
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    Tap Add Account
    Tap Other and then tap Add CardDAV Account
    For the Server you need to enter carddav.address.yahoo.com
    Now type in the Yahoo! ID (full email address) and password you use to sign in to your Yahoo! Contacts
    why not all in one? who knows!
    Ps. You might have to do several tries with and without the .xxx extesion to the account name
    Yahoo has multiples with att and all othr isp's

    How do I combine my iphone contact list with my laptop pc contact list? And how does it handle duplicates that have different information?
    How do I merge my iphone calendar appointments/alerts with my laptop pc calendar appointments/alerts?  And how does it handle duplicates?
    I do not need anything to change on my email that is working fine on both.

        gspielman,
    Help has arrived to assist you with getting those contacts on both your devices. The Verizon cloud service is definitely a great tool to use and you can also use Apple iCloud as well. When you sign into the Verizon cloud on your iPad does it give an option or message to restore?

  • Wireless Synchroniz​ation in Desktop contact list properties is by default showing "Not Available"​, Not able to change also

    In my Blackberry 8520 - Curve model, Wireless Synchronization in Desktop contact list properties (Go to Contacts, select options, select Desktop) is by default showing "Not Available" and not allowing to change also. My other colleagues are having the options.
    My basic issue is that Outlook contact details are not getting syncronized with Blackberry. I believe this is the root cause for the same. Please guide to resolve the issue.

  • I can't seem to merge a redundant contact list with a current one. If I delete the redundant contact list I will lose all of my contacts that I have (still) been inadvertently adding using this as my default contact list.

    When I was working with my old job I had a contact list on my phone that was associated with my job's personal email address. Now that I have a new mac and am now a new full time student I would like to use my new uni email address as my default contact list. I have now made this change but have only just realised that I have been adding contacts for a period of months using this now redundant list.
    When I sync my computer with my phone (which is working great using iTunes), I am unable to get all of my recent contacts.
    I have three groups:
    "All contacts" - I understand this is all of my contacts on my phone
    "All from My Mac" - This is my new list and constitutes around 80% of my contacts
    "Contacts" - This is the old list from my previous employer and contains (I think) 100% of my contacts. Well all of my useful ones anyway - maybe 99%. I would like to delete this group as I don't use the email address anymore and don't work for them!
    The end result that I am looking for, is a complete list of ALL of my contacts synced with my computer in Outlook, and to be able to delete my old work contact list!
    Please help (you bunch of legends).
    Dave

    Launch iTunes on your computer.
    From the menu bar click iTunes > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Reset warnings and Reset cache
    Click OK.

  • How to add company name to show up in contact list with person's name on Droid

    I just switched from the Blackberry Storm to the Motorola Droid.  Is there a way to have the company name show up in the contact list under the person's name.  I need that for work.  It syncs up with a program called Act by Sage and my storm used to show both.

    You can edit your contacts, and list the company name under the organization section. However, it will not show up when they call you. You will only be able to see it in your contact list. Hope this helps!

  • Empty results while importing outlook contact list with PHP

    Hello. Could you help me with such problem:
    I'm always receiving an empty result while importing contact list from my outlook mail account.
    I've had successfully created live app (https://account.live.com/developers/applications). I'm using REST api (https://apis.live.net/v5.0/me/contacts?&access_token=" . $access_token) and successfully received "access_token". But in the end
    I receive empty result in such form:
    { ["data"]=> array(0) { } ["paging"]=> array(0) { } } (certainly, I have few contacts in my outlook contact list)

    Desktop Manager is not contact manager. Restore it from Backup to a HH and then sync it with contacts in Outlook at home for example. Extract contacts to PST file. Import those to new company outlook contacts and they will sync over the air with handheld.

  • Refreshing CRM's Account and Contact list with new data

    Hi Folks, I am very new to CRM and was tasked with a new job of refreshing our CRM's account and contact listing.
    We get a new list in Excel every now or so from a commercial vendor that compiles list of companies and key contacts and sends it out to subscribers.
    I cleaned out this Excel data so there is a:
    1) Contact List
    2) Account List
    3) Contact + Account
    that can be directly mapped to fields in CRM.
    What I need to do is, make sure none of our existing data is deleted. If there is a matching account (eg. company A) then only the phone no, address, website will be updated. If there is a matching contact again do the same.
    If there is no matching account in CRM, then create new account and all corresponding contacts.
    Anyone done something similar, can you please suggest the optimal way to go around this? Thank.

    Hi
    When you do an import in On demand , you can select the appropriate choice in the Step 1 of your import wizard.
    you can select to import the account with the on demand predefined fields where in you can import via account and location.
    In case when duplicate is found you can opt for a overwrite of existing records and when no duplicate is found then you can ask for a new record creation.
    the same way you can do for contacts.
    By this method you can be sure that records are not lost and new records are created if there is no existing record.\
    hope this helps.

  • Contacts issues - send contacts to at&t phone book or sim card? and un able to unsync email contact list with phone contact list

    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...
    Let us know!
