I have a new Blackberry, I'm trying to get it all setup correctly.
I have transfered all my contacts from Outlook into the balckberry complete with phone numbers and email address.
When I make phone calls, the display shows the name of the person I am calling.
If someone texts me, the name of the person texting me appears in the message center.
But, if someone calls me, the phone always displays 'unknown number'. What is wrong??? I was hoping it would display the name of the person calling
Do I need 'caller ID' turning on by the network provider?
(I should note that the blackberry was working fine with just email for a week, but when O2 enabled the mobile phone service, they accidentally disabled the data content of my service (so at the moment the balckberry cannot send or receive emails), they are in the process of turning this back on. Is this part of the caller ID problem??)
I also notice the outlook places a space between +44 and the start of the phone number, ie, +44 16....... Why? (it doesn't seem to make any difference when making a call).
Boring anal questions I know, but it's driving me mad trying to get the thing working 😬
