I have Microsoft Exchange with subfolders set up in my inbox. I've recently purchased a new BB, and have already set it up for folder re-direction and turned off "hide read messages." Though all new messages that are filtered into subfolders show up on my BB, none of the SUBFOLDERED messages pre-dating this device show up. The strange part is, all old e-mails from my "inbox" appear on my new BB, this problem only applies to items that rest in the inbox's subfolders.

What is the problem here and how do I fix it? We're using BES 4.1. ]]> BlackBerry Discussion Stockmoose16 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=368876 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=368859&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:59:39 GMT Is charging your blackberry via electrical outlet more effective than charging it via USB to computer?

One thing that is bugging me though is I clicked the seperate email / sms options but now there are 3 folders on my home screen! 3!!! the three are "sms/txt" "messages" "email" the email folder is my online email acct through gmail but it's annoying because my emails go to the "messages" folder including the actual gmail folder and I rather just have two! Any suggestions? Also when I get facebook notifications they go to the "messages" folder which I like but I rather it go to the email folder so I could just reply from there, does that have to do with the facebook application? ]]> BlackBerry Discussion radlink14 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=368853 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=368765&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:31:44 GMT I have two models 8900 and 8520, the two have the same problem, someone has had the same problem please can help me I have two models 8900 and 8520, the two have the same problem, someone has had the same problem please can help me ]]> BlackBerry Discussion edu920 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=368765 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=368750&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:17:41 GMT Can you download any 5.0 os on a blackberry as long as you delete the vendor file.

I just have one thing that is annoying me. I have a lot of voice recordings and random short sound clips that are in the .mp3 file format.

I like to keep my music collection on my phone very organised as I use it as my main mp3 player. I use the "shuffle all" function to play my songs. However, my mp3 voice recording files and sound clips are being automatically detected and put into the music player and get played in the shuffle.

I just wanted to know if there is a way to stop them being automatically being added to the music player?

Like is there a setting that I can set to make the music player ignore a folder?


I know adding mp3 files to the "Ringtones" folder stops them being added, but then that adds loads of mp3's to my ringtones list that I dont want. Also, setting the files to be "hidden" in their file properties stops them being automatically added, but then as soon as you play the file on the blackberry from the File Browser, the file gets added to the library :mad:

"Um what's Blackberry hand?"

It's when your holding your BB in your hand the majority of the day and your hand is sore from it.
