I recently got my 8830 replaced because some keys were not working on the keyboard.
Before I turned in my old phone I did an ipd backup.
After restoring the ipd into my new 8830 I noticed that most of the contacts in my GROUPS in my Address Book were missing.
When I looked at the "Device Databases" on Desktop Manager I noticed that there were 2 Address books.
1. Address Book
2. Address Book - All
I also noticed that they both had identical amount of contacts in them
but "Address Book - All" had more Bytes than "Address Book"
Address Book - 1.26M
Address Book - All - 1.33M
If Clear the "Address Book" database from the "Device Databases" using Desktop Manager and leave "Address Book - All"
no contacts show in my Address book Application on the BlackBerry itself.
When I add/delete records on my BlackBerry and then ipd back up with Desktop Manager the amount of contacts remains the same on both Address books but "Address Book - All" always has more Bytes than "Address Book"
I suspect that "Address Book - All" has all the GROUP member contacts intact but the phone does not read/diplay this database in the Address Book application.
I would like to know the following:
1. How do I switch between the two Address books on my BlackBerry?
2. How can I access "Address Book - All" on my BlackBerry?
3. Is there a way to rename "Address Book - All" to "Address Book"
Thanks In advanced!
