BlackBerry ID
BlackBerry ID
About BlackBerry ID
A BlackBerry ID gives you convenient access to multiple BlackBerry products and services. After you create a BlackBerry
ID, you can use your email address and password to log in to any BlackBerry product that supports BlackBerry ID. With
BlackBerry ID, you can manage apps that you downloaded from the BlackBerry App World storefront and keep apps you
downloaded when you switch smartphones.
If you previously created a BlackBerry ID, you must use it when you set up your new tablet or smartphone (instead of
creating a new BlackBerry ID). You can log in to both a tablet and a smartphone using the same BlackBerry ID.
What's the difference between a
BlackBerry ID username and a screen
name?
Your BlackBerry ID username is the email address that you use when you log into products or services that use BlackBerry
ID. The BlackBerry ID screen name is the name that appears when you submit app reviews in the BlackBerry App World
storefront.

About Messages
The unified inbox on your BlackBerry device gathers all the messages that you receive from your different accounts into
one convenient location. Receive and respond to email, text messages, or BBM chats all in the same place. Read your
Twitter or Facebook messages, or send messages to your LinkedIn connections. It's all possible with the unified inbox.
Here are the types of messages that you can send and receive in the unified inbox:
•
•
•
•
Email: You can add practically any existing email account to your device--both work and web-based email.
Text messages (SMS/MMS): If text messaging is a part of your wireless service plan, you can find all of your text
messages in the unified inbox.
Social networking: Add a Facebook account to your device to receive notifications for messages, wall posts, likes, and
comments and to send Facebook messages. Add a Twitter account to keep on top of your @mentions and to send
direct messages. Add a LinkedIn account to stay in touch with important business connections.
BBM and instant messaging: After you add an instant messaging account to your device, you can access your chats
through the unified inbox.

Viewing and searching your messages
Messages are at the core of your BlackBerry experience. Because of that, your messages are always available to you, no
matter what you're doing on the device. From the Home screen, all you have to do is swipe to the left, and your inbox slides
into view.

By default, all of your messages appear in your inbox. If you just want to see messages from a particular account (for
example, your Google Mail account) or by a type (for example, your text messages), filter them.

About contacts
When you add contacts to your BlackBerry device, connecting with them is easy. The Contacts app is integrated with your
Messages app, your Calendar app, and other apps, so you can quickly add contacts to relevant messages and events or
share your photos and videos.
If you've added an email account or social networking account to your device, contacts from those accounts can appear in
your contact list. It's simple to find the people that you want to connect with because your device automatically merges
contacts who share first and last name, email addresses, or mobile phone numbers.
Adding contacts
Add an email or social networking account
1.
On the home screen, swipe down from the top frame.
2.
Tap the Settings icon > Accounts.

If you have accounts associated with your BlackBerry ID, tap Select Accounts. Select the accounts that you want
to add.

If you haven't added an account yet, tap the type of account that you want to add.

If you've already added an account, tap Add New Account. Tap the type of account that you want to add.

Contact views
When you tap a contact, your BlackBerry device shows you lots of info about the contact. Some info is pulled from social
accounts like Twitter or LinkedIn, and some is information that you have added. There are three tabs, or views, that you can
tap through:
Details
This view shows you an overview of contacts' details: how to contact them, where they work, their
birthday, and so on. You can tap on phone numbers or email addresses to start connecting with
contacts.
Updates
This view shows you your contacts' most recent updates from social networking apps like Twitter
and Facebook. If you have the contacts' work information, the Updates view also shows you
news about their place of work. You can tap on an update to see it in a social networking app or
the browser.
History
This view shows you past interactions with your contacts. Tap on any of the history events to go
directly to that event on your device. You can also filter the types of activity that you see in this
view.

a message to all of your Facebook contacts.

My contacts weren't merged automatically
Your BlackBerry device automatically merges contacts when it's clear that those contacts are the same person (for
example, they share the same first and last name, mobile phone number, BlackBerry ID, and so on). If you still see
duplicate entries in your contact list, you can merge those contacts into one entry.
1. Tap a contact.
2. Tap the Link icon > Add Link.
3. Tap the contact that you want to merge.
My contacts' pictures change sometimes
If you're using a social networking app to pull in pictures of a contact, then your pictures change when the contact changes

About the Calendar
The Calendar on your BlackBerry device takes the calendar info from the email and social networking accounts that you've

If you find you've reached the limit on the number of tabs that you have open, try closing other applications that are

Collecting and organizing tasks, notes, and
more with FocalPoint
The FocalPoint app is a productivity tool for collecting, managing, categorizing, and sharing the information that matters to
you. You've got a lot of things that you need to remember; sort these things as entries in notebooks, categorize the entries
with tags, and add due dates to entries so that you don't forget to complete a task.
For example, if you're planning a trip to Paris, you can collect all trip-related email, text messages, contacts, and websites
into a notebook called "My Trip to Paris". Open the notebook to see all of the info for the trip in one place, and assign due
dates to any entry in the notebook.
FocalPoint is also in sync with the accounts that you add to your BlackBerry device. If you've added a work email account
to your device, either through ActiveSync or through BlackBerry Mobile Fusion, your tasks and notes or memos from your
work account are kept in sync with FocalPoint in the Tasks and Notes notebooks. Even your flagged email messages are
sent to the Unfiled notebook.
If you have an Evernote account that you've added to your device, you can access your Evernote notebooks in FocalPoint
and sync your FocalPoint notebooks to Evernote.
