Contact troubleshooting

Custom address book field data is not appearing on my computer

If your BlackBerry® device is associated with a Microsoft® Outlook® 2000 email account and you add a picture for a contact in the email application on your computer, verify that the file name for the picture is ContactPicture.jpg.
