also I thought i woud try and relink my blackbeery to Audi bluetoothand basically clearing everything in the car address book and resink it like i did day one using the Audi pin # etc- does anyone know how i would do that??
any help would be appeciated...

 

As a Palm employee and Bluetooth EngineerI can tell you that both the Treo and the Blackberry have issues withall Audi bluetooth kits. Best recommendation is to contact RIM, Blackberry creator, or your service provider and ask for help.

 

Blackberry's are notorious for having poor communication with bluetooth devices (I've owned several for years). My TomTom GPS has bluetooth and it gave me the same problem as you, only I managed to get only four contacts onto it, and it wont let me do anything at all. Blame RIM for being a hardline about stuff like that, and they never do anything to correct this obvious flaw.

 

It sounds like you guys have the answer to what I am trying to find out... which might also help you!

My problem is the exact opposite... I have so many dam contacts in my blackberry as it sync's with my BES and transfers all my contacts from my outlook automatically... Nearly all the contacts are people I wouldn't call from the car and I was looking to see if there was a way to limit the number of people displayed on the car's system.

I know with other bluetooth devices there is a way to display contacts from one "group" or category... ie. I only want it displaying people in my friends group not my business contacts group... I have not been able to figure out how to do this though.

Do you think for some reason your car is only recognizing contacts in a certain group?? Do you have your address book arranged that way??

Hopefully we can work to solve both our problems!!
