So I have found someone to take over my contract for my 8130 so I can Upgrade to a 8330. Only one issue. I will give the pearl to its new owner before I get my new Curve. If i backup the pearl just before handing it over, can i preform a restore on the curve to retrieve all my contacts?
I believe the backup / restore is unique to each device and that devices PIN, so I don't believe this will work, but I could be wrong on that one. If you use a PIM like Outlook, you could just load the contacts into the 8330 through DM once you get it. You can also try using Desktop Manager > Switch Device wizard which may be viable option.Good luck!
Patrick, you can back up and restore to any BB device. It doesn't matter what the PIN is. A back up only creates a copy of the personal information such as contacts, tasks, calendar, profile settings. This has nothing to do with the PIN, therefore it doesn't matter what device you restore do.
