BlackBerry User Guide

To Perform an OTA for Contacts

1. Turn on the BlackBerry.

2. Click the e-mail icon.

3. Click again to open the e-mail menu.

4. On the menu, scroll down to OTA Load. (This stands for "Over The Air" Load.) Click it.

5. Your screen will show Load Type:. You will want to do an OTA load for Contacts.

6. On the menu that appears, click Select.

7. If you are loading Contacts, you will see a screen that says "All contacts will be

removed from the device. Continue?" If you click Yes, you will erase the Contacts list

from the BlackBerry, and replace it with the current contents of your address book. If

you click No, you will cancel the operation. Make your choice.

Browsing Web Pages

Although it is possible to start the browser and enter the URL of any web page, the user should

remember that a BlackBerry is accessing the web via Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), and not all

web sites are capable of providing a WAP view of their data.

If the user wishes to view information on the web, the best results will be obtained by using Nextel

Online's links to WAP enabled sites. The following example explains how to get to CNN's WAP page.

1. Turn on the BlackBerry. Leave it on for a minute before starting the next step. This is to assure a

contact with a local cell tower.

2. On the Home page, open the Nextel Online application. It is identified by an icon showing the

letters "NOL".

1. Use the track wheel to highlight the NOL icon.

2. Click the icon. (Press the track wheel button.)

3. A menu will appear. Use the track wheel to select News. Click it. Click Go on the next menu.

4. A menu of News sites appears. CNN.com is the first choice. Click it. Click Go on the next menu.

5. CNN's WAP site opens on the screen. Use the track wheel to navigate and select news items.

Experimentally, we navigated to the regular CNN site, and found it to be unfriendly to a WAP device.

Users will be much happier with the results by restricting their browsing to sites featured on the Nextel

Online menus, or sites they know to be WAP enabled.

If your BlackBerry is lost or stolen, it should be reported as such, like any other state equipment. In

addition, you should contact DIT Client Service Center (517-241-9700 or 1-800-968-2644) as soon as
