Blackberry Curve 8900 Duplicate Emails

In the last few days I was getting duplicate emails on my phone, not every email mind you, and there was no pattern, it just seemed like sometimes I would get an email twice. I have an account on Blackberry Enterprise Server from work. Well I used my past experience with Service Books to resolve my issue.

Go to Options > Advanced Options > Service Book

Highlight Desktop Sync, press the Blackberry Button then delete

Wait 2 minutes and press the Blackberry Button again, and select Undelete

You should no longer receive duplicate emails!

BlackBerry Calendar Sync Issues

Here is a quick fix that I use from time to time when my calendar stops syncing on my BlackBerry Curve 8830 to BES (BlackBerry Enterprise Server).

1.) Go to Options

2.) Advanced Options

3.) Service Book

4.) Desktop [CICAL]; now once you have this highlighted, hit the “BlackBerry Button” 7 (black or white dots) then click Delete, wait about 3 minutes, then, hit the BlackBerry button again, and select undelete. This should force a resync with you calendar service books. At least this way you won’t have to wipe your blackberry!

BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0

BES 5.0 has been out for a couple days now, bringing along with it centralized management over applications allowed and disallowed, high-availability(allowing it to fail over to a stand by server), remote file access, enhanced calendar functionality. and a few new features that you can check out here.

On another note Google is set to bolster its support of the blackberry phones. 

I have one last rumor to spread. Apparently BlackBerry phones(not sure which ones, im guessing the 8830 or 8900 and up) will be able to print natively utilizing BES. Once I hear more ill be sure to post.
