Troubleshooting: Contacts Contact list field data isn't appearing on my computer You can only synchronise the data in a custom contact list field with a text field in the email application on your computer. For
example, you can't add a contact's birthday to a custom contact list field on your BlackBerry® smartphone and synchronise it
with the email application on your computer, because the birthday field is a date field in the email application on your
computer.

application on your BlackBerry® smartphone to replace contact pictures. Depending on how often or how many of your contact pictures are being replaced by other applications, you might experience increased data charges.

Synchronising tasks and memos About synchronisation and reconciliation The wireless data synchronisation feature is designed to synchronise organiser data (contacts, calendar entries, tasks andmemos) between your BlackBerry® smartphone and the email application on your computer over the wireless network.
The wireless email reconciliation feature is designed to reconcile email between your smartphone and the email application on your computer over the wireless network. When you file or delete email messages on your smartphone, these email messagesshould be filed or deleted in the email application on your computer. Likewise, any changes that you make to email messagesin the email application on your computer should be reflected on your smartphone.
In rare cases, if your smartphone doesn't recognise fields in a contact, calendar entry or email account, some data or email
can't be synchronised or reconciled.
If wireless data synchronisation isn't available on your smartphone or if you turned off this feature, you can use the
BlackBerry® Desktop Software to synchronise your organiser data. For more information, see the Help in the BlackBerry Desktop Software.
Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a back-up file on your computer, especially before you

smartphone is lost, stolen or corrupted by an unforeseen issue.
