Where is google sync in the BB Curve 8520?

Can't get my calendar to Sync. Just got the Curve 8520 last night and it actually seems to have a lot LESS flexibility and options than the 8350. Still getting used to it, but wondering if I made a mistake?
How do I sync my calendar on this new phone?
Thanks!

you need to install Google mobile app for it.

Interested in the Blackberry Curve 8520.

Hello, I'm interested in getting the Curve 8520, and I was looking for some opinions and some questions to be answered on the device... As I understand the device already is an EDGE enabled, and (being my very first smartphone) I was wondering if I have to pay(or have my account credited) when using EDGE to check my emails or basic web surfing, and also, with EDGE I can access my emails anywhere? also, personal opinions would be nice
Any help is greatly appreciated, many thanks.

Viewing BBC clips on the BB Curve 8520

I do know there's an app for YouTube although I dont yet have it. Hardly likely to catch up on East Enders though.
I think the problem is that suppliers don't know what can and can't be done with any device and of course as consumers we either assume a device will do something or don't ask. Of course if we are told you can do something that turns out to be wrong, thats a different issue. Trading Standards etc.
Assuming you are stuck with your device then try and put your disappointment aside and enjoy the features that it does have.
I was disappointed to find out it doesn't have satnav but then I thought "i didn't get it for satnav and my Garmin would be loads better anyway".
Mine was a free upgrade from a Sony which should have been crushed at birth. Its my 1st smart phone. The features I like best are the wifi connection meaning most of the time its not costing me and being able to link my multiple email accounts to it. The fact I get maybe 30 emails each day with video links I can't access is only a slight inconvenience.

Setting up email on the blackberry curve 8520.

Hi, I am trying to help my friend set up her email on her new phone. The settings is not giving her an option to choose which email to use. It is only giving out the Blackberry network and she wants to use her own. Do you have to have a data package in order to use personal email?

Hi, yes you need a Blackberry Data Plan to use push email on the blackberry - get her to give her carrier a call and see what options they offer.

IPhone 4 Google Sync Push Email not Working?

Hi all,
I don't seem to be getting push e-mail on the iPhone. Overnight I sent a couple e-mails to my iPhone, but the phone did not pick up the messages until I manually launched the mail client.
Shouldn't the phone have received a e-mail notification regardless?
I'm using Google Sync with the Exchange Server settings.
I'm on WiFi at home - does Push require 3G to work correctly?
Message was edited by: coolspot

I recently got an iPad and had the exact same problem! - except I'm using Gmail.
I take it you are attempting to set it up through hotmail as you cannot see the Exchange server settings then?
Well, seen as I couldn't get my gmail account to push emails, I set my gmail up with Exchange and have found that the option to enter the server is found later on, did you try entering the required fields in Exchange and proceeding to the next page of the setup?
Settings > Mail, contacts, calendars > Add account > Exchange > enter your email address, password, and description > Then when you press next the server option should pop up where you can enter col-m.homtail.com, leave the domain blank, and re-write your email address in the username.
I am using iPad 4 version 6.0.1 also and this worked for my Gmail.
Hope you get it fixed!

Wipe Contacts & Calendar via Google Sync

Hi,
I have just set up Google Sync on my 8900 curve, and it seems to be syncing 2 calendars & the contacts really well.
One thing that has occured to me was that if I lost my phone I could wipe the contacts & calendar on the phone by removing them from the google app account (standard) after making sure the backup of the google account is current of course. Leave it a while for the details to synced and then reinstall the backup under a different password.
However a quick search of the web & this forum sees no mention of this so am I missing something...?

do I understand your need correctly ?
in case of theft, you want to protect the content of your Contacts application.
I have an easier solution : use a device password on your device. The thief will then never be able to access any data on your device except the media card (and event for the media card, you can protect it too). This very simple security measure is one of the reasons for the success of the BlackBerry dynasty.

BB Curve 8520 sync w/ Lotus Notes 6.5

I am helping out a co-worker.
He is using the BB Curve 8520 and would like to be able to sync his calendar. We don't have the BB Enterprise server (yet). We use Lotus Notes 6.5 as our email client.
When we connect the phone via the USB, go into DM it sees the phone. I can sync the contacts w/out issue. However, anytime I try to sync the calendar it shuts down DM and gives the general "Blackberry Desktop Software has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." But all the times I try, there is never a solution.
When speaking with this user, he mentioned that there were a couple of others that were experiencing the same thing.
When the DM was orig installed on the computer it would sync for approx 1 week, but then stopped working. If DM is uninstalled, and reinstalled, it will work for approx 1 week again. This is not a suitable option to uninstall & reinstall every week.
The users have various versions of MS Windows (XP Pro upto 7 Pro), and all have the latest version of DM from the BB site.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Has anyone else had this happen? Or are we the only ones?

Disable Google Sync in 10.9

Hi
I was running with the google synchronization enabled on th "On My Mac" Account of Contacts.
Now I have upgrade OS X to 10.9 and found that OS X now supports Google Account completely with Contacts Sync also.
So I enabled that Account, but - anyway - on th "On My Mac" Account in Contacts the used to be a check mark to enable contacts sync.
Now this check mark is no loger there - how do i get arround to disabling google sync on the "On My Mac" account?
Please advice
Best regards
Poul

I don't use Google, but my understanding is that you can sync google contacts and other services between devices. If this is the case, you would be better off using only google services of your choice and deselecting them from iCloud.

Spanning sync versus google sync for iphone

I am currently using spanning sync. It works great, except you have to connect it by cable to your pc to sync. In 2009 cable connections are a pain in the neck (IMO). I dont like the idea of wiping out all my contacts to switch to google sync. I also hear it only can sync 5 calendars. Is there experience out there with google's version, is it working great ? Are there delays opening the calender or contacts or making changes b/c it syncs with google ? Is the 5 calendar limit true? Would love to not pay for spanning sync if google is working well. Thanks.

I'm using Google Sync, used NuevaSync before that. Synching both calendars (three) and contacts.
Read everything before making a decision. Activating the mobile, turning on synching, choosing default notifications. I did, have no gripes, didn't lose any data.
I also use MobileMe. Google Sync shows the contacts in the My Contacts list on my account; I use Calaborator to sync my contacts into my Address Book - all of my Google Contacts show up in my Address Book on my Mac and Contacts in my iPhone, so I have access to all of them. I can also use the Address Book app to edit my Google Contacts.
Syncing from/to the iPhone is almost instantaneous. Faster than MobileMe's synching, and MM and Google's services are finally getting it.
Spanning Sync? I wouldn't bother.

Considering the purchase of a Curve 8520

Hello,
I'm considering to purchase a BB Curve 8520 but I just wanted to clear up some questions before I do...
Does the BB Curve 8520 download emails automatically?
Does it make a sound (Low or High) when an email is received? (If downloaded automatically)
I've just switched my tariff with O2 to a Blackberry Text & Web package so I'm hoping that is all I need...
(Sorry if I've posted in the wrong forum!)
Thanks in advance!

Yes and yes.
Welcome and good luck with your 8520!

I can't receive SMS ! BB Curve 8520

Hi, my English isn't that good but I'll try my best to describe my problem.
I have the Blackberry curve 8520 and version 4.6. Is installed.
Whenever I have installed themes I wasn't able to read SMS anymore. Actually the red light gets on (which shows all notifications) and a SMS symbol can be seen on the display, but when I look for the SMS it doesn't appear.
The only way I can read new SMS are that I write a SMS on my own to be able to read the SMS I just got before! Besides I have to click twice on it until it really opens the SMS.
I've even uninstalled these Themes, but nothing changed.
I wonder why my phone behaves like that because the themes where compatible...
I think this is not normal and I hope u can tell me, how to fix it. Thank you for your help

Hi Reyhane_Cherry_Mint
Have you tried switching to one of the default BlackBerry themes to see if the behavior continues?
Thanks

Help required with upgrading to OS5 on curve 8520

Hello everyone,
I'm using an unlocked version of the bb curve 8520 and want to upgrade my bb device os to v5.0. (current version- 4.6.1)
I tried using the application loader on the bb website (NA & India both) but it just tells me that my OS is updated and that i will be notified if there are any updates available. I would be really grateful if someone could help me update my os.
Solved!

Hello,
Your warranty is not endangered. You are free to use any carriers OS package on your BB. Your carrier may, however, refuse to provide you with support (including Warranty evaluation/service) until you fall back to their supported device OS level. But your warranty per se is not endangered.
Good luck!
