Welcome to BlackBerry!
User Guide
Welcome to BlackBerry!
This is one of the many resources available to help you use your BlackBerry® device. You can look for answers in the Help application on the
Home screen of your device, or by pressing the Menu key and clicking Help in most applications.
Feature availability
The following items affect the availability of features on your BlackBerry® device. The features discussed are meant as examples, and are not
inclusive of every feature that might or might not be available on your device.
Device model
Features such as an internal GPS receiver, Wi-Fi® connection capability, and the camera and video camera are dependant on your device
Wireless service plan
A wireless service plan with phone or voice is required to use the phone application and to send and receive SMS text messages and MMS
messages.
A wireless service plan with data is required to use the browser service and instant messaging applications, and to send and receive email
messages and PIN messages.
For more information, contact your wireless service provider.
BlackBerry Internet Service and BlackBerry Enterprise Server
Once you have a data plan, you must set up your email address or third-party instant messaging account in order to send and receive
email messages, use third-party instant messaging applications, and use certain browser configurations.
If you are an individual user, when you set up your email address or instant messaging account, you are associating it with the BlackBerry®
Internet Service.
If you are a corporate user, your administrator sets up your email account by associating it with a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server. Your
administrator might set options that determine the features and settings that are available on your device.
Wireless service provider
Features such as MMS messages, location-based services, and some phone features are dependant on your wireless service provider's
offerings. For more information, contact your wireless service provider.
Wireless network
The wireless network that your device is connected to might affect the availability of some features. Depending on your wireless service
provider and available roaming options, different wireless networks are available. Some wireless networks do not support features such
as call blocking, call forwarding, or cell broadcasting. For more information, contact your wireless service provider.

Conference calls
About conference calls
You can create two types of conference calls with your BlackBerry® device. If your organization or a conferencing service has provided you with
a conference call bridge number, you can create conference call meetings in the calendar on your device or computer. Conference call meetings
allow participants who have a BlackBerry device to enter the conference call meeting with a one-touch Join Now option, if this feature is
supported on their device, so that they do not have to dial the conference call bridge number and access codes. If you do not have a conference
call bridge number, you can create a conference call by calling other contacts and joining the calls together.
Make a conference call
If your BlackBerry® device is connected to a CDMA network, you cannot join more than two contacts to a conference call.

Smart dialing
About smart dialing
With the smart-dialing feature, you can set a default country code and area code for phone numbers so that you do not have to dial a country
code and area code each time that you make a call, unless the country code or area code are different from the default codes that you set.
Some country codes are not supported by the smart-dialing feature.
In the smart-dialing options, you can also specify the main phone number for an organization that you call frequently so that you can quickly
call a contact in that organization by dialing only the extension for the contact. If you add contacts from that organization to your contact list,
when you add their phone numbers, you can type only the extensions instead of typing out the main phone number for the organization.

About SMS text messages
To send and receive SMS text messages, your wireless service provider must set up your wireless service plan for SMS text messaging. Depending

You can forward SMS text messages as PIN messages or email messages. If your BlackBerry® device is connected to a CDMA network, you can

If you have more than one phone number associated with your device, your device sends SMS text messages using the first phone number that
appears in the drop-down list beside the My Number field at the top of the screen in the phone application.
Depending on the typing input language that you are using to type your SMS text messages, your messages might display to your recipients

S/MIME-protected messages
S/MIME-protected message basics
About signing and encrypting messages
If your email account uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature, you can digitally sign or encrypt messages to add another
level of security to email messages and PIN messages that you send from your BlackBerry device. Digital signatures are designed to help
recipients verify the authenticity and integrity of messages that you send. When you digitally sign a message using your private key, recipients
use your public key to verify that the message is from you and that the message has not been changed.
Encryption is designed to keep messages confidential. When you encrypt a message, your device uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt the
message. Recipients use their private key to decrypt the message.
To send an encrypted PIN message, you must have a PIN and an email address for the contact in your contact list. Your device uses the email
address in your contact list to locate a PGP® key or certificate for the contact.
Sign or encrypt a message
You can sign or encrypt email messages and PIN messages.
1. When composing a message, change the Encoding field.
2. If necessary, change the Classification field.
Encrypt a message with a pass phrase
Your BlackBerry® device can encrypt email messages and PIN messages using a pass phrase shared between the sender and recipient.

About message classifications
If your BlackBerry® device is associated with an email account that uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature and your
administrator turns on message classifications, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server applies a minimum set of security actions to each message
that you compose, forward, or reply to, based on the classification that you assign to the message. Your administrator specifies the message
classifications that you can use.
If you receive a message that uses message classifications, you can view the abbreviation for the classification in the subject line of the message
and the full description for the classification in the body of the message. You can also view the abbreviation and full description for the
classification for a sent message in the sent items folder.

PGP protected messages
PGP protected message basics
About signing and encrypting messages
If your email account uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature, you can digitally sign or encrypt messages to add another
level of security to email messages and PIN messages that you send from your BlackBerry device. Digital signatures are designed to help
recipients verify the authenticity and integrity of messages that you send. When you digitally sign a message using your private key, recipients
use your public key to verify that the message is from you and that the message has not been changed.
Encryption is designed to keep messages confidential. When you encrypt a message, your device uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt the
message. Recipients use their private key to decrypt the message.
To send an encrypted PIN message, you must have a PIN and an email address for the contact in your contact list. Your device uses the email
address in your contact list to locate a PGP® key or certificate for the contact.
Sign or encrypt a message
You can sign or encrypt email messages and PIN messages.
1. When composing a message, change the Encoding field.
2. If necessary, change the Classification field.

About message classifications
If your BlackBerry® device is associated with an email account that uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature and your
administrator turns on message classifications, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server applies a minimum set of security actions to each message
that you compose, forward, or reply to, based on the classification that you assign to the message. Your administrator specifies the message
classifications that you can use.
If you receive a message that uses message classifications, you can view the abbreviation for the classification in the subject line of the message
and the full description for the classification in the body of the message. You can also view the abbreviation and full description for the
classification for a sent message in the sent items folder.
Change the default message classification
To perform this task, your email account must use a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature and your administrator must turn
on message classifications.
Your BlackBerry device is designed to use the default message classification when you send a message to a contact that you have not sent a
message to or received a message from previously. If you have sent a message to or received a message from the contact previously, your device

About compression
Compression is designed to reduce the size of your BlackBerry® device data while maintaining the integrity of that data. When compression
is turned on, your device compresses all device data, including messages, contacts, calendar entries, tasks, and memos. You should keep
compression turned on.
If both compression and encryption are turned on, your device compresses device data before encrypting it.
About file encryption
File encryption is designed to protect files that you store in the BlackBerry® device memory and on a media card that can be inserted in your
device. You can encrypt the files in the device memory and on your media card using an encryption key that your device generates, your device
password, or both.
If you encrypt the files using an encryption key that your device generates, you can only access the files on your media card when the media
card is inserted in your device. If you encrypt the files using your device password, you can access the files on your media card in any device
that you insert your media card into, as long as you know the password for the device.
Turn on encryption
To encrypt data in the device memory, you must have set a password for your BlackBerry® device.
Depending on the amount of memory available for storing files in the device memory, you might not be able to encrypt files in the device
memory.
1. On the Home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon.

Transferring and downloading media files
About transferring and synchronizing media files
You can connect your BlackBerry® device to your computer to transfer and synchronize files between your device and computer, or you can
use Bluetooth® technology to send media files to or receive media files from a Bluetooth enabled device.
If you want to manage and preserve the information associated with your media files when you transfer or synchronize files between your
device and your computer, use the media manager tool of the BlackBerry® Desktop Manager. For more information about using the media
manager tool, see the help in the Roxio® Media Manager. For more information about using BlackBerry® Media Sync, see the help in BlackBerry
Media Sync.
If you want to transfer files quickly between your media card and computer, use mass storage mode or MTP. Use mass storage mode to transfer
all file types and MTP to transfer media files. Depending on your BlackBerry device model or your wireless service provider, mass storage mode
or MTP might not be supported.
If you transfer files to your media card using mass storage mode, MTP, or Bluetooth technology, your device does not encrypt the files. If you
transfer encrypted files from your media card using mass storage mode, MTP, or Bluetooth technology, you cannot decrypt the files on your
computer or on a Bluetooth enabled device. You can use the Roxio Media Manager to preserve encryption in media files that you transfer
between your computer and your device.

The flash dims or turns off
If the camera has a flash, and the battery power level drops below 20 percent, the flash dims to conserve battery power. In cold temperatures,
when the battery power level drops below 20 percent, the flash might turn off.
Some pictures that I take are blurry
In low lighting conditions, the camera might compensate for the lack of exposure by using a slower shutter speed. If you move the camera
before the shutter clicks, the picture might be blurry. If the camera is using a slower shutter speed, an exclamation point indicator appears at
the bottom of the screen.
Depending on your BlackBerry® device model, you might be able to decrease the blurriness in pictures that is caused by slight movements of
the camera by turning on image stabilization in the camera options.
Some features are not available on my device
The availability of certain features on your BlackBerry® device might be affected based on various items such as your device model and wireless

About Gears
Gears™ is an extension to the browser application that is designed to provide a richer browsing experience. When you visit a Gears enabled
web site and enter information, Gears can store that information on your BlackBerry® device or media card for use during later visits to the
web site.
Gears can also help web sites provide customized content to you if you choose to share your location with that web site. Your device does not
need to have an internal GPS receiver or be paired with a Bluetooth® enabled GPS receiver to share your location.
The first time you visit a web site that uses Gears, you are prompted to set the permissions for that web site. You can turn off the prompt so
that your permissions for the web site are saved. You can change or delete the permissions for Gears-enabled web sites.

Browser push
About browser push
Browser push is designed to push information from a web application to your BlackBerry® device as the information becomes available. For
example, you can receive updates for weather reports, stock quotes, or breaking news. When your device receives an update, a new browser
push message might appear in the messages application or an icon on the Home screen might change to indicate that new information is
available. The web application might also push updated information to your browser cache without notifying you. If information is pushed to
your browser cache, the information is available on your device even when your device is not connected to the wireless network. Web applications
that use browser push automatically push updates to your device, unless you turn off browser push.
Your device supports different types of browser push messages. Service loading messages and service indication messages include updated
information. Other browser push messages include messages that appear in your browser cache.

About custom ring tones
You can assign a custom ring tone to a contact without changing other notifications.
Custom ring tone options appear with your contacts and your notification profiles. When you assign a custom ring tone to a contact, a new
profile exception appears with your notification profiles as "Calls From <contact>". Notification profile exceptions are shared between your

Your BlackBerry® device bases the volume for custom ring tones on the volume that you set in the active notification profile.
Assign ring tones and alerts to a contact
You can receive different ring tones and alerts for incoming messages and calls from specific contacts or groups of contacts. When you receive
a call or message from the contact, your device uses the assigned ring tone or alert, even if you switch your sound profile to Silent or Vibrate

Troubleshooting: Contacts
Custom contact list field data is not appearing on my computer
You can only synchronize the data in a custom contact list field with a text field in the email application on your computer. For example, you
cannot add a contact's birthday to a custom contact list field on your BlackBerry® device and synchronize it with the email application on your
computer, because the birthday field is a date field in the email application on your computer.
Caller ID pictures are not appearing on my device
If your BlackBerry® device is associated with a Microsoft® Outlook® 2000 email account and you add a picture for a contact in the email
application on your computer, verify that the file name for the picture is ContactPicture.jpg.
My contact pictures keep changing
The contact pictures in applications (for example, in the contacts application), might change if you set more than one application on your
BlackBerry® device to replace contact pictures. Depending on how often or how many of your contact pictures are being replaced by other
applications, you might experience increased data charges.
To stop contact pictures from changing, you must change the options in each application that is replacing your contact pictures.

Conference call meetings
About conference calls
You can create two types of conference calls with your BlackBerry® device. If your organization or a conferencing service has provided you with
a conference call bridge number, you can create conference call meetings in the calendar on your device or computer. Conference call meetings
allow participants who have a BlackBerry device to enter the conference call meeting with a one-touch Join Now option, if this feature is
supported on their device, so that they do not have to dial the conference call bridge number and access codes. If you do not have a conference
call bridge number, you can create a conference call by calling other contacts and joining the calls together.
Create a conference call meeting from your device
To perform this task, you must be the meeting organizer. If you are not the meeting organizer, you can create a conference call meeting on
behalf of another person from your computer.
1. In a meeting, select the Conference call check box.
2. Type the information for the conference call.
3. Press the Menu key.

on categories.
Category names are not case sensitive. More than one category can apply to a contact, task, or memo. If you use IBM® Lotus Notes®, you can
apply more than one category to a task on your BlackBerry® device, but only one category synchronizes with the task in Lotus Notes.
Categories are shared between the contact list, the task list, and the memo list and changes that you make in one application are made in all

About ring tones, sounds, and alerts
Sound profiles define how your BlackBerry® device alerts you of phone calls, messages, reminders, and browser content.
Your device has a Normal sound profile and six other preloaded sound profiles: Loud, Medium, Vibrate Only, Silent, Phone Calls Only, and All
Alerts Off.
By default, some of the settings in the preloaded sound profiles are based on the settings in the Normal sound profile. For example, when you
change the ring tone in the Normal sound profile, the ring tone in the Loud, Medium, and Phone Calls Only sound profiles is automatically
updated. If you do not want specific settings for a preloaded sound profile to update automatically when you change the corresponding setting
in the Normal profile, you can manually change the settings in that preloaded sound profile.
You can create custom sound profiles. When you assign a custom ring tone to a contact, the ring tone is always active and does not change
when you switch sound profiles unless you switch to the All Alerts Off sound profile. Call and message notifications for your contacts might be
audible even if you switch your sound profile to Silent or Vibrate Only.
You can change, rename, and delete most preloaded sound profiles. You cannot delete the Vibrate Only sound profile and you cannot change,
rename or delete the All Alerts Off sound profiles. You can change the Normal sound profile, but you cannot rename or delete it because some
of the settings in the other preloaded sound profiles are based on the settings in the Normal sound profile.

About synchronization
The wireless data synchronization feature is designed to synchronize organizer data (contacts, calendar entries, tasks, and memos) between
your BlackBerry® device and the email application on your computer, over the wireless network.
The wireless email reconciliation feature is designed to reconcile email messages between your device and the email application on your
computer over the wireless network. When you file or delete email messages on your device, these email messages should be filed or deleted
in your email application. Likewise, any changes that you make to email messages in the email application on your computer should be reflected
on your device.
In rare cases, if your device does not recognize fields in a contact, calendar entry, or email account, some data or email messages cannot be
synchronized or reconciled.
If wireless data synchronization or wireless email reconciliation is not available on your device or you have turned off these features, you can
use the synchronization tool of the BlackBerry® Desktop Manager to synchronize your organizer data and email messages. For more information,
see the Help in the BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you update any software.
Maintaining an up-to-date backup file on your computer might allow you to recover device data if your device is lost, stolen, or corrupted by
an unforeseen issue.

Custom contact list field data is not appearing on my computer
You can only synchronize the data in a custom contact list field with a text field in the email application on your computer. For example, you
cannot add a contact's birthday to a custom contact list field on your BlackBerry® device and synchronize it with the email application on your
computer, because the birthday field is a date field in the email application on your computer.
Some characters in calendar entries do not appear correctly after synchronization
If you schedule appointments or meetings on your BlackBerry® device that contain special characters or accents, your computer might not
support these characters.
On your computer, verify that you are using the correct default code page and that the correct font support is installed on your computer. For

Bluetooth technology basics
About Bluetooth technology
Bluetooth® technology is designed to enable you to establish a wireless connection between your BlackBerry® device and a Bluetooth enabled
device, such as a handsfree car kit or wireless stereo headset.
Before you can connect your BlackBerry device to a Bluetooth enabled device, you must first turn on Bluetooth technology on both devices and
then pair the devices. Pairing establishes a relationship between the devices and usually needs to be done only once.
After you have paired the devices, you can then connect the devices when the Bluetooth enabled device is within range of your BlackBerry
device (a typical range is approximately 10 meters). For best results, keep your BlackBerry device within direct line of sight of the Bluetooth
enabled device. For example, if your BlackBerry device is on the right side of your body, wear a Bluetooth enabled headset in your right ear.
When you turn on Bluetooth technology or when you connect your BlackBerry device to another Bluetooth enabled device, Bluetooth status
indicators appear at the top of the Home screen. For more information about Bluetooth indicators, see the printed documentation that came
with your BlackBerry device.
Turn on Bluetooth technology
1. On the Home screen, click the Manage Connections icon.
2. Select the Bluetooth check box.
To turn off Bluetooth® technology, clear the Bluetooth check box.
Pair with a Bluetooth enabled device
You must pair your BlackBerry® device with a Bluetooth® enabled device before you can connect to it. For more information about preparing
the Bluetooth enabled device for pairing, see the documentation that came with the Bluetooth enabled device.
1. On the Home screen, click the Manage Connections icon.
2. Click Set Up Bluetooth.
3. Click Search.
4. Click a Bluetooth enabled device.
5. If necessary, perform one of the following actions:
•
If the Bluetooth enabled device does not have a keyboard (for example, a headset), on your BlackBerry device, type the pairing passkey
that is provided in the documentation that came with the Bluetooth enabled device. The passkey is most often a numeric or alpha-
numeric code.
•
If the Bluetooth enabled device has a keyboard (for example, a laptop), type a pairing passkey of your own choosing on both devices.

BlackBerry® device. For more information about wireless coverage areas, contact your wireless service provider.
The indicator that displays five ascending bars provides information about the strength of the wireless signal. Three or more bars indicates a
strong signal. A reduced signal display might indicate increased power output from your device as it attempts to connect to a weak signal.
If the wireless coverage indicators display anything other than 1XEV, 1X, 3G , EDGE, GPRS, NXTL, MIKE, or NTWK, you might be in an area
of reduced wireless coverage where features such as email messaging and internet browsing are not available (you might only be able to make
a phone call or send and receive SMS text messages). If the SOS wireless coverage indicator appears, you can only call emergency numbers.
If the X indicator appears, you are in an area of no wireless coverage.
If your device includes Wi-Fi® support, a dimmed Wi-Fi logo with a network name displayed at the top of the screen indicates that your device
is connected to a Wi-Fi network but does not have access to BlackBerry services such as email messaging and internet browsing over the Wi-
Fi connection.

Encryption
About encrypting data in the device memory
When encryption for the device memory is turned on, your BlackBerry® device uses a private key to encrypt data as it is stored on your device,
including data that your device receives when it is locked. Your device decrypts data as you access it.

User Guide
You can set encryption to include or exclude your contacts. If you turn on encryption for contacts and you receive a call when your device is
locked, the caller name does not appear on the screen.
If you use a smart card certificate for authentication, depending on the smart card, you might also be able to use one of your smart card
certificates to provide two-factor encryption. In order to access the encrypted content, you must provide your device password and also connect
your device to your smart card reader.
When you lock your device, an open lock indicator appears at the top of the screen to indicate that your device is in the process of securing
your data, which includes deleting a copy of the private key from the temporary device memory. A lock indicator appears at the top of the
screen when your device has deleted the key.
About file encryption
File encryption is designed to protect files that you store in the BlackBerry® device memory and on a media card that can be inserted in your
device. You can encrypt the files in the device memory and on your media card using an encryption key that your device generates, your device
password, or both.
If you encrypt the files using an encryption key that your device generates, you can only access the files on your media card when the media
card is inserted in your device. If you encrypt the files using your device password, you can access the files on your media card in any device
that you insert your media card into, as long as you know the password for the device.
Turn on encryption
To encrypt data in the device memory, you must have set a password for your BlackBerry® device.
Depending on the amount of memory available for storing files in the device memory, you might not be able to encrypt files in the device
memory.

Smart cards
About using a smart card with your device
Smart cards store certificates and private keys. You can use a smart card reader to import certificates from a smart card to the key store on
your BlackBerry® device, but you cannot import private keys. As a result, private key operations such as signing and decryption use the smart
card, and public key operations such as verification and encryption use the public certificates on your device.
If you use a smart card certificate to authenticate with your device, after you connect your smart card reader to your device, your device requests
authentication from the smart card each time that you unlock your device.
You can install multiple smart card drivers on your device, including drivers for microSD smart cards, but you can only authenticate to one smart
card at a time. If you are authenticating using a microSD smart card and you want to transfer media files between your microSD smart card
and your computer in mass storage mode, you must temporarily turn off two-factor authentication or select a different authentication option.
If the S/MIME Support Package for BlackBerry® devices is installed on your device, you can use smart card certificates to send S/MIME-
protected messages.
About two-factor authentication
Two-factor authentication is designed to provide additional security for your BlackBerry® device. Two-factor authentication requires an item
that you have (for example, a smart card) and an item that you know (for example, a pass phrase). You can also use the connection to your
smart card reader to authenticate, without requiring a smart card to be present.
Youcanuseasmartcardfortwo-factorauthenticationwhenyouunlockyourdevice, oryoucanuseasoftwaretokenfortwo-factorauthentication
when you use your device with RSA® software as a hardware token. If you have a Wi-Fi® enabled BlackBerry device, you can also use a software
token for two-factor authentication when you log in to a VPN or connect to a Wi-Fi network.
Depending on your BlackBerry device model and the two-factor authentication settings that you choose, you might need to type your pass
phrase when you perform one of the following actions:
•
•
•
•
unlock your BlackBerry device
change a general security option on your BlackBerry device
change a smart card option
use your BlackBerry device with RSA software

About smart password entry
If you use advanced authentication and your BlackBerry® device password or smart card password is numeric, you might be able to use smart
password entry in some password fields. When smart password entry is turned on, your device is designed to remember the format of a password
that you type in a password field. When you type the password again, your device applies a smart password filter to the password field. If the
password is numeric, a 123 indicator appears beside the password field and you do not have to press the Alt key to type numbers. If the password
is alphanumeric, an ABC indicator appears beside the password field.
To use smart password entry, advanced authentication must be turned on and the correct smart card driver and smart card reader must be
installed on your device.
Turn off smart password entry
To perform this task, you must be using a smart card and a password to unlock your BlackBerry® device.
You can turn off smart password entry to reduce the chance that someone might guess your device password or smart card password based
on the smart password filter that your device applies to password fields.

About the Word Mole game
The object of the Word Mole® game is to form words using the letters in the garden. If you form a word using letters that are directly above,
below, or beside each other in the garden, you receive new letters which you can use to form new words. Otherwise, holes appear in the garden,
making it harder to form new words. You can replace a hole with a new letter by forming a word that uses a letter that is beside the hole.
In a single-player game, you complete a level by submitting enough words to reach the required point goal before the time expires. In a practice
game, you have unlimited time to play a game. In a multiplayer game, you compete against other players to win awards for achievements such
as submitting the longest word, or receiving the least number of holes.

PCRE is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.
This is JavaScriptCore's variant of the PCRE library. While this library started out as a copy of PCRE, many of the features of PCRE have been
removed.
