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.

S/MIME-protected messages

S/MIME-protected message basics

About signing and encrypting messages

You can digitally sign or encrypt messages to add another level of security to email messages and PIN messages that you send from your

BlackBerry® device. Digital signatures are designed to help recipients verify the authenticity and integrity of messages that you send. When

you digitally sign a message using your private key, recipients use your public key to verify that the message is from you and that the message

has not been changed.

Encryption is designed to keep messages confidential. When you encrypt a message, your device uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt the

message. Recipients use their private key to decrypt the message.

To send an encrypted PIN message, you must have a PIN and an email address for the contact in your contact list. Your device uses the email

address in your contact list to locate a PGP® key or certificate for the contact.

Sign or encrypt a message

You can sign or encrypt email messages and PIN messages.

1. When composing a message, change the Encoding field.

2. If necessary, change the Classification field.

Encrypt a message with a pass phrase

Your BlackBerry® device can encrypt email messages and PIN messages using a pass phrase shared between the sender and recipient.

1. In an unsent message, set the Encoding field to Encrypt or Sign and Encrypt.

2. Press the Menu key.

3. Click Options.

4. Set the Use Password-Based Encryption field to Yes.

5. In the Allowed Content Ciphers section, select the check box beside one or more allowed content ciphers.

About message classifications

If your BlackBerry® device is associated with an email account that uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature and your

administrator turns on message classifications, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server applies a minimum set of security actions to each message

that you compose, forward, or reply to, based on the classification that you assign to the message. Your administrator specifies the message

classifications that you can use.

If you receive a message that uses message classifications, you can view the abbreviation for the classification in the subject line of the message

and the full description for the classification in the body of the message. You can also view the abbreviation and full description for the

classification for a sent message in the sent items folder.

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.

To decrease blurriness in pictures that might be caused by slight movements of the camera, you can turn on image stabilization in the camera

About browser push

Browser push is designed to push information from a web application to your BlackBerry® device as the information becomes available. For

example, you can use browser push to receive updates for weather reports, stock quotes, or breaking news. When your device receives an update,

a new browser push message might appear in the messages application or an icon on the Home screen might change to indicate that new

information is available. The web application might also push updated information to your browser cache without notifying you. If information

is pushed to your browser cache, the information is available on your device even when your device is not connected to the wireless network.

Your device supports different types of browser push messages. Service loading messages and service indication messages include updated

information. Other browser push messages include messages that appear in your browser cache.

Conference call meetings

About conference calls

You can create two types of conference calls with your BlackBerry® device. If your organization or a conferencing service has provided you with

a conference call bridge number, you can create conference call meetings in the calendar on your device or computer. Conference call meetings

allow participants who have a BlackBerry device to enter the conference call meeting with a one-touch Join Now option, if this feature is

supported on their device, so that they do not have to dial the conference call bridge number and access codes. If you do not have a conference

call bridge number, you can create a conference call by calling other contacts and joining the calls together.

Create a conference call meeting from your device

To perform this task, you must be the meeting organizer. If you are not the meeting organizer, you can create a conference call meeting on

behalf of another person from your computer.

1. In a meeting, select the Conference call check box.

2. Type the information for the conference call.

3. Press the Menu key.

Create a conference call meeting from your computer

To perform this task, you must be the meeting organizer or be creating the meeting on behalf of the meeting organizer. For information about

creating meetings on behalf of another person, see the documentation for the email application on your computer.

You can create a conference call meeting from your computer that your BlackBerry® device recognizes. When the conference call meeting

starts, participants who have a BlackBerry device can enter the conference call meeting with the Join Now option, if their device supports this

feature.

1. In the meeting notes, or in the meeting location field, type CCP: and the participant conference call bridge number. Do not include spaces.

2. Type a lowercase x. Do not include spaces before or after the x.

3. Type the participant access code. Type a space after the participant access code.

4. Type CCM: and the moderator conference call bridge number. Do not include spaces.

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.

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.

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 notification profile list, verify that the Off notification profile is not selected.

In a notification profile exception, verify that the Custom Ring Tone field is not set to Mute.

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

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.

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.

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.
