Where are stored / located the contacts list on the blackberry device

Dear support staff
from time to time they happen those APP ERROR 523, 205 and so on
With utilities like BBSAK or BBMCP, you still have access to the devices, but you can save/dump/delete .COD files and maybe input RIM command line interface commands (WOW!, thouhg)
So the point it is, .COD files looks like to do not contain the contacts.
Where are located the databases?
Is there any command line interface to dump them and save them in the case of APP ERRORs and white screens of death?
Thank you for your kind hints and replies
Cor

Hello,
Contacts are one of the databases stored in the protected AppMemory area, not accessible by any normal means. Rather, what one must do (IMHO) is practice good backup procedures...a recommended set for which is contained within the link in my auto-sig on this post.
Data recovery is not, and has never been, a reactive venture...protecting ones critical data is a matter of practicing good backup procedures on an ongoing basis.
Good luck!

  • When i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    when i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar.  WWhen I start keying in a name, it comes up with the address.  How do I engage the  contact list from the email?

    I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email.  When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced.  How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?

    With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
    In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
    That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
    Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another.

  • Help!!! My husband by accident synced his account under my account and has merged all of our contacts.  In the process of fixing the mixup has deleted contacts on both phones.  How do I restore the contact list from the original contact list.

    I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
    VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
    1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
    2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi.

  • Where is the contact list with the lion mail application

    After I installed Lion OS, the Mail application does not have a link to the address book, how can this be fixed?

    Is this what you are looking for?

  • Forwarding an email to access the contacts list in the "to" field?

    Is there anyway to pull from contacts in the "to" field when forwarding a message instead of typing in first few letters of a name?

    Finally find some solution! (complicated)
    First you have to move your contacts.cdb file from phone to PC (with filemanager it is in system/Data/contacts.cdb) or you can backup phone to memory card and open backup.arc with nbu explorer then export contacs.cdb to somethere on PC. Then you may try to export contacts by noki software (not freeware), or in my case it doesn't work- just open contacs.cdb with any text editor. Then there is a lot of manual work, you have to find telephone numbers,copy them and dial by your "broken" phone. Contact names will display while dialing, and save in dial history. You can write them and phone you just dialed. Hard work, bro, but this is contacts... Good luck.

  • Problem adding contacts to the contact list in PSE7

    I am running PSE 7 with Windows 7. I had a similar problem last February http://forums.adobe.com/thread/581476?tstart=0 trying to update the contact list. The only difference last year is a different PC and I was running XP.
    I am running into the same problem today. In summary I could enter contacts manually or import via Outlook but once I closed the contact list and reopened nothing was updated. I followed all the instructions in John Ellis’s response http://forums.adobe.com/message/2583020#2583020 but it is not working this time. I am not logged into photoshop.com. I saw a link where this fixed someone else who was having a similar problem.
    I have my preferences set to Microsoft Outlook. I am using Outlook 2003.
    Does anyone have an idea what I should try next.

    Yesterday I posted this thread. After I convinced my self that I was properly following the directions given by John Ellis I needed to start elsewhere to resolve the problem.
    What I did was found my contacts.xml file and moved it to my documents folder. I then went back to the organizer and attempted to load the additional contacts expecting the contacts folder to be empty. It was not. I loaded the new contacts using the vcard/desktop method per John’s thread. Now everything is updating and an updated contact folder is in the original location.
    Can anyone explain how the new contact folder acquired all the original contacts?

  • How to create business card in the contact list

    I would like to create a buisness card to share with other people. What the best way to do that in the contact list.

  • If someone is removed from the contact list...

    If someone is removed from the contact list, but the other person has them on block. Can they view the previous messages? Can they still send messages even after being removed?

    To stop future emails, click 'My Stuff' at top right, select 'Preferences' , then in the next page select the 'Email Notification Preferences' tab and click all the 'No' radio buttons. Then click 'Save'.
    If you already have notifications set on some threads you will still get emails from them. Click on your username at the top, then under 'Actions' in the right sidebar, select "'Manage email notifications.' This will show the threads you've set up notifications on in the past. Select those you want to stop and click the 'Remove Selected Notifications' button at bottom.

  • How can I be certain the contact list in my iPod touch updates my computer Outlook contact list when I sync and not go the other way? The options in iTunes are not specific enough.

    How can I be certain the contact list in my iPod touch updates my computer Outlook contact list when I sync and not go the other way? The options in iTunes are not specific enough. In other words, I want to replace the information in my computer Outlook contact list with the data from my iPod touch. 

    How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library?  In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music configuration panes in iTunes?

  • How do i delete someone from the gamecenter? they are listed as friend and i dont want them their-they are not in my contact list... please help

    some kid wanted to play me in a game (who i dont know) and i played them- and no longer talk to them- but they are in my friends list in game center-  they are not in my contact list..... how can i get them out of my gamecenter friends???

    The instruction should read "Settings > General > Usage > Music > All Music > Swipe right to left > Delete".
    But doing so may have the undesirable effect of screwing up artwork and/or playback stability (maybe this was fixed, but this method cause a lot of grief in iOS 6 and early in iOS 7).
    But try this -- connect the iPad to iTunes, and if you're not in manual sync mode then enable that and apply the change.  Then while connected to iTunes, navigate the contents of the iPad through iTunes and see if you can delete the albums that way.

  • Where are stored the data settings of Project Pro for Office 365?

    Hi,
    I'm using Project Pro for Office 365 connected to Project Online. Where are stored the settings we saved in

  • What are the authorities listed in the certificate manager and where did they come from?

    I am being blocked from some websites and cannnot figure out how. I am not a student nor am I trying to access sites from work. This is occurring at my home. While trying to fix things I stumbled upon the Authorities list in the Certificate Manager. What is this list for? And also, where did the items in the list come from?

    That are the build-in root certificates and intermediate certificates from servers that you have visited.
