TIP: Finding that person you met at the bus stop
If you just met someone at the bus stop, enter their first and last name (if you know it), but also
enter the words ‘‘bus stop’’ in the Nickname field. Then when you type the letters ‘‘bus’’ or
‘‘stop’’ you should instantly find everyone you met at the bus stop, even if you cannot
remember their name!
Why Can’t You See All of Your Names and Addresses (Filtered)?
If you are seeing no names, a few names, or if you
just added a new name and do not see it on the list,
it is very likely your contact list is filtered.
This means it is showing you only those names that
are assigned to a particular category.
The tip-off that your list is filtered is the black bar (or
other color) at the top with the category name.
In the image to the shown here, the category
applied for the filter is Business.

Contact list again on page

Locate Names and Addresses Easily
Once you get the hang of adding contact information into the Contacts app, you will
begin to see how useful it is to have all that information at your fingertips. The tricky
part can be actually locating all the information you have input into the BlackBerry.
