About typing input methods  
You can type on your BlackBerry® device using the SureType® input method or the multi-tap input method.  
SureType technology combines a traditional phone-style key layout with a familiar computer-style letter layout that is designed to provide  
a quick and comfortable typing and dialing experience.  
SureType technology is designed to predict words as you type them. When you use SureType technology, you press the letter key for each  
letter in a word once until the word appears in a list that appears on the screen. For example, to type run, you would press the R key once,  
the U key once, and so on until run appears in the list.  
When you use multi-tap, you press a letter key once to type the first letter on the key and twice to type the second letter. For example, to  
type run, you would press the  
key twice, the  
key once, and the  
key twice.  
SureType technology is the default typing input method for most fields. Multi-tap is the default typing input method for phone number  
and password fields.  
Type text using SureType technology  
1. Press the letter key once for each letter in a word.  
2. Perform one of the following actions:  
• To select an item from the list that appears when you type and start typing a new word, highlight the item. Press the  
Enter key.  
• To select an item from the list that appears when you type and continue typing the same word, click the item.  
• To change a letter in a word that you are typing, highlight the letter. Click the alternate letter that appears on the screen.  
To change a letter in a word after you finish typing the word, click the word. Highlight the letter. Click the alternate letter that appears  
on the screen.  
Switch typing input methods  
1. In the device options, click Language.  
2. Perform one of the following actions:  
• To use the multi-tap input method, set the Input Language field to <Language> Multitap.  
• To use the SureType® input method, set the Input Language field to <Language>.  
3. Press the Menu key.

Camera and video camera troubleshooting  
I cannot save pictures or videos  
Your BlackBerry® device memory or media card might not have enough available memory to store pictures or videos.  
Try performing the following actions:  
• If you are trying to save a picture or video to your device memory, delete old data or messages from your device.  
• If you are trying to save a picture or video on your media card, delete old media files.  
• In the camera options, verify that the Picture Quality field is not set to Superfine. Superfine pictures use more memory than fine  
or normal pictures.  
• Increase the maximum amount of memory available for pictures.  
The flash dims or turns off  
If 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.

Email message filters  
About email message filters  
You can create email message filters to specify which email messages are forwarded to your BlackBerry® device and which remain in the  
email application on your computer.  
Email message filters are applied to email messages based on the order in which they appear in your list of email message filters. If you  
create multiple email message filters that could apply to the same email message, you must decide which one should be applied first by  
placing that filter higher in the list.

account, you can open and manage email messages for that email account, and you can send messages using the email address for the  
email account. For more information about associating your device with more than one email account, see the BlackBerry Internet  
Service Online Help.  
Depending on your theme, a separate message list might appear for SMS text messages and MMS messages.

About multiple message lists  
Depending on your email setup option, you might be able to associate your BlackBerry® device with more than one email account. For  
example, you might be able to associate your device with a work email account and one or more personal email accounts. If you associate  
your device with more than one email account, multiple message lists might appear on your device. In a message list for a specific email  
account, you can open and manage email messages for that email account, and you can send messages using the email address for the  
email account. For more information about associating your device with more than one email account, see the BlackBerry Internet  
Service Online Help.  
Depending on your theme, a separate message list might appear for SMS text messages and MMS messages.  
Use one message list or multiple message lists  
By default, your BlackBerry® device theme determines whether SMS text messages appear in the same message list as email messages.

Typing input methods  
About typing input methods  
You can type on your BlackBerry® device using the SureType® input method or the multi-tap input method.  
SureType technology combines a traditional phone-style key layout with a familiar computer-style letter layout that is designed to provide  
a quick and comfortable typing and dialing experience.  
SureType technology is designed to predict words as you type them. When you use SureType technology, you press the letter key for each  
letter in a word once until the word appears in a list that appears on the screen. For example, to type run, you would press the R key once,  
the U key once, and so on until run appears in the list.  
When you use multi-tap, you press a letter key once to type the first letter on the key and twice to type the second letter. For example, to  
type run, you would press the  
key twice, the  
key once, and the  
key twice.  
SureType technology is the default typing input method for most fields. Multi-tap is the default typing input method for phone number  
and password fields.  
Type text using SureType technology  
1. Press the letter key once for each letter in a word.  
2. Perform one of the following actions:  
• To select an item from the list that appears when you type and start typing a new word, highlight the item. Press the  
Enter key.  
• To select an item from the list that appears when you type and continue typing the same word, click the item.  
• To change a letter in a word that you are typing, highlight the letter. Click the alternate letter that appears on the screen.  
To change a letter in a word after you finish typing the word, click the word. Highlight the letter. Click the alternate letter that appears  
on the screen.  
Type text using multi-tap  
• To type the first letter on a key, press the letter key once.  
• To type the second letter on a key, press the letter key twice.  
Switch typing input methods

About typing input languages  
You can set a typing input language to use when you type. The typing input language can be different from the display language. When  
you set a typing input language, AutoText and other typing options change to the selected language. For example, you might use your  
BlackBerry® device in French, but type messages in English.  
When you set the typing input language, you also set whether your device uses the multi-tap or the SureType® input method.  
If the typing input language is different from the display language, a rectangle with the abbreviated form of the current typing input  
language appears in the list that appears when typing.

should be reflected on your device.  
If wireless data synchronization or wireless email reconciliation is not available on your device or you have turned them off, you can use  
the synchronization tool of the BlackBerry® Desktop Manager to synchronize your organizer data and email messages. For more  
information, see the BlackBerry Desktop Software Online Help.  
Prerequisites: Wireless email reconciliation  
• If your BlackBerry® device is associated with the BlackBerry® Internet Service, verify that your wireless service provider supports

• If you use the BlackBerry® Internet Service, you must use the synchronization tool of the BlackBerry® Desktop Manager to  
synchronize calendar data. For more information, see the BlackBerry Desktop Software Online Help.  
Custom address book field data is not appearing on my computer  
You can only synchronize the data in a custom address book field with a text field in the email application on your computer. For example,  
you cannot add a contact's birthday to a custom address book 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 more information, see the documentation for the operating system on your computer.

GPS technology  
About GPS technology  
Depending on your wireless service provider, you might be able to use location-based applications and location-based services on your  
BlackBerry® device to get your GPS location. Location-based applications can use your GPS location to provide you with other location-  
based information. For example, a location-based application could use your GPS location to provide you with driving directions.  
IfyourdeviceisconnectedtoaCDMAnetworkandyoumakeanemergencycalloryourdeviceisinemergencycallbackmode, anemergency  
operator might be able to use GPS technology to estimate your location.  
Note: In an emergency, always provide the emergency operator with as much information as possible. Emergency operators might not  
be able to estimate your location using only GPS technology.  
If your device does not have an internal GPS receiver or your wireless service provider does not support location-based services and you  
want to use GPS technology, you can pair your BlackBerry device with a Bluetooth® enabled GPS receiver. For more information, contact

Custom address book field data is not appearing on my computer  
You can only synchronize the data in a custom address book field with a text field in the email application on your computer. For example,  
you cannot add a contact's birthday to a custom address book 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.

Notification profiles  
Notification basics  
About notification profiles  
Notification profiles define how your BlackBerry® device notifies you of calendar and task reminders, and incoming messages, calls, and  
browser content. Your device has six preloaded profiles: Loud, Vibrate, Quiet, Normal, Phone Only, and Off.  
You can change preloaded notification profiles or create new ones. In your notification profiles, you can set different notification options  
for different items, set ring tones, or set the volume for notification. If you set notification volume to Escalating, the notification volume  
gradually increases.

About custom notification  
You can create notification profile exceptions to receive different notification for incoming messages and calls from specific contacts. For  
example, you can create a notification profile exception that uses the Loud profile for incoming messages and calls from a specific contact,  
regardless of your active notification profile.  
Your BlackBerry® device applies notification profile exceptions in the order in which they appear in the notification profile exception list.  
If you create multiple notification profile exceptions that include the same contact, place the notification profile exception that you want  
your device to apply first in the list.  
Your device has one preloaded notification profile exception for important calls. You can add contacts to this notification profile exception,  
or you can delete it.  
Set custom notification for calls or messages from a specific contact  
1. In the profile list, click Advanced.  
2. Press the Menu key.

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 contacts and your notification profiles and changes that you make in one application are made in the other application.  
Your BlackBerry® device bases the volume for custom ring tones on the volume that you set in the active notification profile.  
Assign a ring tone to a contact  
1. In the address book, highlight a contact.  
2. Press the Menu key.  
3. Click Edit.  
4. Click the trackball.  
5. Click Add Custom Phone Tune.

Notification profile troubleshooting  
My device is vibrating more times than expected  
For calls, the number of times that the BlackBerry® device vibrates is not determined by the number of vibrations that you set in your  
notification profile. The device vibrates until the caller or the wireless network ends the connection.  
I am not receiving notification for incoming calls or messages  
Try performing the following actions:  
• In the profile list, verify that the Off profile is not selected.

• In a notification profile exception, verify that the Custom Phone Tune field is not set to Mute.  
I cannot set some fields when creating a Calls From notification profile exception  
If you assign a custom ring tone to a contact in the address book, a Calls From profile exception appears in the profile list. Because these  
exceptions are for calls only, you can only set the Custom Phone Tune field.

the country code and area code, for your contact.  
• If you are not receiving calls, verify that call forwarding is turned off.  
• If you have more than one phone number associated with your device, you can receive calls to the active phone number only.  
I cannot make calls using a voice command  
Try performing the following actions:  
• Verify that your BlackBerry® device is connected to the wireless network.  
• If you are using a Bluetooth® enabled device, such as a handsfree car kit or wireless headset, verify that the Bluetooth enabled  
device supports this feature and that you have paired the Bluetooth enabled device with your BlackBerry device.
