    							Store SIM card contacts on your wireless service provider's contact 
    backup server
    Depending on your wireless service provider and your wireless service plan, you might be able to store your contacts on  your wireless service provider's contact backup server. For more information, contact your wireless service provider.
    Replace or merge contacts on your wireless service provider's contact 
    backup server
    To perform this task, you will need to sign up for your wireless service provider's contact backup service and you must have 
    backed up your SIM card phone book to your wireless service provider's contact backup server. When you insert a new SIM 
    card in your 
    BlackBerry smartphone, you can choose to replace or merge that SIM card's phone book with the contacts 
    that you have backed up on your wireless service provider's contact backup server.
    1.Insert a new SIM card into your smartphone or switch your SIM card.
    2.On the home screen, click the Contacts icon.
    3.When prompted to sign up for contact backup service, select Yes.
    •To replace your SIM card phone book with the contacts you backed up to your wireless service provider's contact  backup server, click 
    Delete.
    •To merge your SIM card phone book with the contacts you backed up to your wireless service provider's contact backup server, click 
    Do Not Delete.

    Troubleshooting: Contacts
    Contact list field data isn't appearing on my computer
    You can only synchronize 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 
    synchronize it with the email application on your computer, because the birthday field is a date field in the email 
    application on your computer.

    							My contact pictures keep changing
    The contact pictures in applications (for example, in the contacts application), might change if you set more than one 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.
    To stop contact pictures from changing, you must change the options in each application that is replacing your contact 
    pictures.

    About synchronization and reconciliation
    The wireless data synchronization and wireless email reconciliation features are designed to synchronize organizer data 
    (contacts, calendar entries, tasks, and memos) and reconcile email between your 
    BlackBerry smartphone and the email 
    application on your computer over the wireless network.
    In rare cases, if your smartphone doesn't recognize fields in a contact, calendar entry, or email account, some data or 
    email can't be synchronized or reconciled.
    If wireless data synchronization isn't available on your smartphone or if you turned off this feature, you can use the 
    BlackBerry Desktop Software to synchronize your organizer data. For more information, see the Help in the BlackBerry 
    Desktop Software
    .
    Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you  update any software. Maintaining a current backup file on your computer might allow you to recover smartphone data if  your smartphone is lost, stolen, or corrupted by an unforeseen issue.
