How to Fix a Slow or Freezing Blackberry (eHow)


Instructions
things you'll need:
  • Activated Blackberry
  • Possibly a Memory Card (micro SD)
1.       
    • 1
First, let's take a look at how many Applications you have running right now. If you have a newer blackberry, you can see all your running applications by holding down the Blackberry/Menu button for 2-3 seconds.
If you have an older blackberry, enter into the Full Menu and then hit Menu again, scroll down to and select "Switch Applications".
    • 2
Do you have more than 5-7 things running right now? The only "Apps" that are always running are: Phone, Browser, Blackberry Messenger (BBM), Home, and Messages.
If you have any more Apps open besides those that you are not currently using, proceed to close them by entering into each App and hitting Menu>Close, or by "backing out" (see Tips below).

Now Let's check to see how much immediate Application Memory you have available. Go into Options, and select Memory.

If you have less than 20 MBs of Application memory, you can free some up a couple of different ways. First it is important to note that some of this memory simply gets tied up during day to day use, and will "free itself" back up when you reset the device with a battery pull.

However, I'm sure you probably have some Apps installed on your device that you never use. Let's go take a look and see what you don't need.
Options>Advanced Options>Applications
Blackberry OS 5.0 :

    • 6
Proceed to delete any App you don't need or never use by highlighting the name of the App, hitting Menu, and selecting Delete.
    • 7
If you plan to delete multiple Apps, select Restart Later when prompted. When you have Deleted your last App, you can then tell the phone to Restart. If you are not prompted to restart when you are done, do it yourself simply by pulling the battery.
    • 8 Lastly, Please take a loot at the Tips and Warnings.

7 Things You Should Know before you BUY THAT CAR!!!

Most people do not enjoy buying a car. A survey conducted by CNN revealed that 75% of people would rather visit a dentist than face visiting a car dealership. It's not that people don't want a car - it's just that there are so many pitfalls to negotiate and not everyone can be sure of the right steps to take. Here are a few points to keep in mind to make the process easier. 

1. Ask questions, lots of questions. Try to ask sensible questions that will enable you to base your decisions on solid ground. But don't be afraid to just ask and only stop when all your concerns have been properly addressed. 

2. Do not let emotion drive you. Pretty cars with all the bells and whistles can blind you to the truth. More often than not you will end up paying more than you need to if you buy with emotion. Be impartial and see the car for what it is and not what you may have fallen in love with. 

3. Know exactly what you want before you put a single foot inside the dealership door. An open mind can be easily manipulated, and usually not in your favor. Use brochures, etc, beforehand to determine exactly what you want within your budget, and don't be swayed by smooth talk. 

4. Talk to the dealer about the price and not the payments. Dealers who keep referring to the "easy" payments could be avoiding the issue of overall price, and you need to know why. Do your homework and you will know exactly what price fits into a payment plan to fit your budget. But if you focus on payment, you may end up paying more than you bargained for. 

5. Know when the time has come to make a decision. That decision could be to walk away, or it could be to close the deal. You should constantly monitor how you feel about the offer being made to you. If it all feels right, then stay with it and see it through. But if you get even just a tiny twinge of something not quite right, be prepared to walk away. 


6. Don't spend beyond your budget. What's the point of having a car and not having the money to fuel and maintain it.


7. When you get it, don't forget to track it. A lot of Carnappers around town. Cheers!


Segun Adekoye & Jack Hill
Buying a car is not always easy. It's not something most of us do very often and we all want to make the best use of our money. But with sensible and careful planning, and an awareness of the five points above, you can buy the exact right car for you at the exact right price for you. 

CAR INSURANCE QUOTE

Shopping around for a car insurance estimate is not something most people look forward to. It is one of the least exciting chores that is required in order to have a car on the road, but it is worth seeking out the most competitive car insurance estimate available. Although getting a car insurance estimate from a number of companies isn’t a desirable task; many people spend far more than they absolutely have to each year on their auto insurance because they simply haven’t taken the time to compare rates and policies with other auto insurance companies. It would be hard to find someone who would walk into an appliance store and decide to spend $200.00 more on a washer that offers the same exact quality and features as the one next to it that costs far less. It doesn’t make too much sense to do the same thing with car insurance. 

Why Should You Have a Business Plan?

Are you planning to start a new business? Or are you considering 
expanding your current business and require a bank loan or 
investment from outsiders? 

If you are going to look for an investment of capital it is quite 
likely that you will be required to have a business plan. If you 
are starting a business, despite the work involved, a business 
plan can prepare you for the obstacles ahead and help ensure your 
success. 

A business plan is something that many small businesses fail to 
create, however, many business owners are adamant that having a 
written business plan is one of the keys to their present 
success. Creating a business plan forces you to contemplate 
possible obstacles to your business and prepares you to find 
solutions that will help you to overcome them. 

To find investors or get a bank loan, they will want to see that 
you have the experience or resources to run the business. They 
will want to see your projected income as well as your suggested 
repayment plan already laid out. Taking the time to do this is 
not only important for them, but it gives you a measuring tool to 
verify if your business is growing properly. You can gage your 
success on how close to the plan your business has actually 
performed. Perhaps you'll do worse, or perhaps you'll do better, 
either way it helps you determine how well your business is 
getting on. 

If you have never seen a business plan before you may be 
concerned that is is too difficult a proposition for you to 
manage on your own. 

While there are services available where you can hire someone to 
write a business plan for you, depending on your needs it may be 
wise to familiarize yourself with a business plan's layout. This 
will not only help you to provide the necessary information, but 
may encourage you to try your own hand at it. 

There's a free tool at www.bdc.ca which will assist you in 
creating a business plan. Some of the topics you will be required 
to explain are your Market, Customer, Competition, Marketing 
Plan, Research & Development along with financial forecasts. You 
may consider hiring someone to help you with your financial 
sheets after completing the written part of the Business Plan. 

Your Business Plan will become your guide and silent business 
partner - indicating where you need to improve and helping you 
stay one step ahead of your competition. Make it a priority to 
have this crucial road map for your business
