I've searched around and can't find an answer to this...
For the new OS 4.5, you can "hide" certain pictures/folders through the Properties option. So, I hid one folder just to test it and it is certainly hidden now and I can't figure out how to "unhide" it.
In the folder list, press menu, select show hidden, then go to that folder,
press menu and then properties. Take the check out of
the hidden box at the bottom and you're done.
I found it. Good grief! That's a horrible procedure to get that but I guess if your trying to really hide a picture that will do the trick.
way to go, saying you found the answer but not sharing it, i was so frustrated!
luckily i figured it out - so any of you that also have this problem here's where you go:
go to media (enter)
HIGHLIGHT to pictures
options button (BB button)
explore!!!!!!!
then go to media card/blackberry/pictures (or wherever your hidden folder is located)
options button (BB button) "show hidden"
to unhide
highlight the folder
options button (BB button)
select properties
uncheck the HIDDEN box

On my curve I had some pictures that i wanted to hide, so i went to media, then pictures, then my pictures, and i made a folder right above /media card and device memory. i then went to properties and made it hidden. since then, i have not been able to be able to find that folder. i have tried all the tips that everyone has written but those are for folders that are in the media card and it wont work. does anyone know how to uncover these files?
I have a tour from Sprint and I can not unhide the picture folder when I go to the folder property it will show a check mark under hidden however it doesn't allow me to take of the check mark. Can some one help me??
I'm having the same problem on my curve 8900...when I go into the media section and explore under the media card it only shows 4 of the 8 folders. When I select the show hidden it brings up the other 4 folders, but how do I make them visible??
I can go to properties and it shows the check mark under hidden however I can't remove it??
Ok after messing around with it for awhile on the PC I figured it out.....if you go to search and type in the folder that is missing it will pull it up, then right click properties and un check the hidden box!
I have the Blackberry bold 9700 and I hid a picture to show my friend but now i cant unhide it and everyone says to go to options explore but there is NO EXPLORE BUTTON!!!!!! help please?
Yeah, I have the 8530 curve and have tried all these things also. The explore is not an option for me, so it appears the picture folder is hidden for good! Dang it!
