About audio conference profiles
Audio conference profiles allow you to save your conference call information, such as a conference call bridge number, moderator access code, or participant access code. When you create a meeting invitation for a conference call, you can add an audio conference profile so that when you join a conference call, the information in the audio conference profile is used to join the call instead of you dialing the conference information.
You can save up to ten different audio conference profiles to your BlackBerry smartphone. If you make changes to an audio conference profile in a meeting invitation, the changes are saved only in that meeting invitation and not in the audio conference profile. If you change an audio conference profile on your smartphone, you must
Add, change, or delete an audio conference profile
Conference call bridge numbers must be in a standard format to be supported on your BlackBerry smartphone. The supported formats are the North American Numbering Plan and the National Telephone Numbering Plan for United Kingdom. For more information about the North American Numbering Plan, visit www.nanpa.com/. For more information on the National Telephone Numbering Plan for United Kingdom, visit www.ofcom.org.uk.
Note: BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing can't connect to a conference call if the conference call bridge number is an extension.

Add a special character, a pause, or a wait to an audio conference profile
If your conferencing system requires you to enter special characters, such as a number sign (#) or an asterisk (*), you can add that information to an audio conference profile. You can also add a pause or a wait to separate additional numbers (for example, an extension or a PIN) from a primary number (for example, a conference call bridge number or access code). If you add a wait or a pause, your BlackBerry smartphone pauses before automatically dialing the additional numbers.
