got a question about the bb bold 9700. is there any way for the phone NOT to display email contacts when i type in a name? it's terribly irritating when i get multiple entries when i type in a name, but one is actually an email contact (from when i synchronised with outlook) while the other is the phone contact (from my previous phone)....

but if that has already been done, is there a way to just delete all email contacts? i can't seem to find much information regarding this... perhaps i'm looking for the wrong words or something...

this is gonna sound stupid but i really can't find the option. i have the bb desktop manager installed, and the only options i see are:

Media
Device Switch Wizard
IP Modem
Application Loader
Email Settings
Backup and Restore
Synchronize

I've tried going through it all and I can't find anything that helps me delete all email contacts, unless you meant going through each and every entry and then deleting it one by one. If that's the case, i can do it from my phone, but that's gonna take a LONG time...

Please let me know if i'm understanding you wrongly... thanks!

so i thought of synching my contacts with my outlook (from bb -> outlook) and then delete whatever i don't want and then sync back the other way...
then i saw a new problem.....

i synched my contact list / address book previously with yahoo mail, so when i synched with outlook, only the new entries that i saved via my phone was synched with outlook. all other entries don't move...

i noticed this, the entries that moved, when i view the contact details show this at the top: synchronise using desktop
the ones that failed to sync properly had this at the top of the contact details: synchronise using myemail@yahoo.com

how do i get the sync to NOT use yahoo anymore and instead sync to outlook?

i've finallly found the solution to my problem after scouring the net high and low....

the screenshot of the problem i was having is given in the URL above, while the solution i found here:

For those who are lazy to go to the URL, the solution is pretty simple:

go to your contact>options and from your Contact List (email) select it and turn wireless sync off. Repeat to all.

does anyone know where to get nice ring tones / message tones for free?

i'm already doing that actually.. just wanted to know where other people get really catchy sounds / clips for their message tones and ringtones.. then at least got variety to choose from mah... =)
