Some characters in calendar entries do not appear correctly after synchronization

If you schedule appointments or meetings on your BlackBerry® device that contain special characters or accents, your computer might not support these characters.

Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you update any software. Maintaining an up-to-date backup file on your computer might allow you to recover device data if your device is lost, stolen, or corrupted by an unforeseen issue.

I cannot enter a conference call with the Join Now option

The Join Now option might not appear in the meeting notification if the meeting organizer is not using a BlackBerry® device that supports the Join Now feature or if the meeting organizer did not enter the conference call information correctly.

Try performing the following actions:

•If the Join Now option does not appear, to enter the conference call, in the meeting or meeting invitation, click the conference call bridge number and access code provided in either the Location field or the Notes section.

•If the Join Now option appears and your device is connected to a CDMA network, try increasing the default time that your device waits before dialing an extension. From the Home screen, press the Send key. Press the Menu key. Click Options. Click Smart Dialing. In the To access extensions in all other corporations section, change the Wait For field to the highest value. Try entering the conference call with the Join Now option again.
