I’m off to see a concert in Liverpool this July. The gig’s at the Liverpool Empire which is just next to Lime Street train station - ideal I thought. Train there and return home after the concert. Alas it was not to be. Read more
The simple answer

My BB Storm had a sulk earlier and kept getting the reset error 200 message. I ended up having to wipe and reinstall which didn’t make me happy as it was set up just how I liked it. As a plus it seemed to update the firmware.
Anyway, try as I might the darned calendar wouldn’t sync with Outlook. All looked OK in the settings and I just couldn’t figure it out. So off I went to the Crackberry forums in search of a clue if not an actual solution. The first forum I came to seemed to have various solutions that looked pretty involved - until I came to the last entry (it isn’t the last now!). In short, it was a very, very simple solution to my problem and all is OK now.
Quick Fix Solution: Go to Options->Advanced->Default Services and ensure that your calendar is set to the email that is tied to your outlook. If you are like me, I have multiple emails to my BB so once I changed it to the right email, it instantly worked with DM. Hope this helps others as it was very frustrating for me living without the calendar.
The forum link is here…just in case

No BB App World for me

“Upgrade your service to a plan that includes browsing and discover a world of possibilities at Blackberry App World. Contact your service provider for more details”
That’s the message I’m getting when I try to open the new Blackberry App Store. My Storm is on an unlimited email and internet package.
Vodafone are looking into this problem - it’s not just me but many Storm users - but there’s no solution yet as far as I know.
I’m not particularly bothered yet but it would be nice to at least have a look around.
