Something is messed up on your BB. 1. If in doubt, always try a "battery pull" to reset your BB. (remove battery, wait, replace, wait) 2. Can also try this: Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (press Menu Key) > Register Now. 3. Can also try logging in to your carrier's BIS for your email account and request that Service Books be re-sent. Please let me know if any of those work (or not). Kelly Danny,

So I either get stuck at 1 website, or cannot share/forward information. What to do? Hmmmmm? Installing Opera has not fixed my predicament. Hello Kelly,

I do not see where a webpage can be sent by email in Opera Mini and the BB browser has no “Go To” or “Bookmarks”?

So I either get stuck at 1 website, or cannot share/forward information.
What to do? Hmmmmm? Installing Opera has not fixed my predicament.

If I get time, I'll install it and investigate. I can't find online where Opera Mini has the feature you're looking for. Are you sure it even has that feature? Are you using the latest version (4.2, I think)? Kelly Danny,

However, I have'nt figured out how to forward a web page by email with Opera???

Still, there was a time when Opera Mini "worked" on my BlackBerry Pearl but wasn't "approved" due to lack of testing. A few features were flakey. Since your problems are, in fact, web-related, you might want to consider uninstalling Opera Mini for a few days, reset your phone, and see if anything changes. I would doubt it, but you have to try something, anything, when you have no other options. Whatever you do, if you learn anything, please let me know. Kelly Danny,

No programs at all? The phone is great otherwise, however this is frustrating. Thanks for any input!

The kind of problems you describe make it sound like something in the OS is getting corrupted. If you tell me which apps you've loaded, maybe I can see something that could be a problem. Kelly Danny,

When this happens, the "Bookmarks" also disappear??? Holding the Alt key + Back key does not work. This happens CONSTANTLY throughout the day and is very much a pain, right when you're in the middle of something. This is the 3rd Blackberry Curve 8330 Verizon that does this??? My 1st one never did have this problem, however I believe it had the older software. Any other fixes, Verizon tech support is clueless. Only thing that works is yanking the battery, however something is obviously wrong here. Once and a while fine, but a half dozen times pulling the battery? Also, anyone know why when you click on some desktop icons you get the "uncaught exception" error message??? And, how do you forward/email a webpage using Opera Mini? The option is not on the menu anywhere unlike the BB menu. Thanks!!! Danny Also having a problem with “Go To” disappearing from the menu? When this happens, the “Bookmarks” also disappear???
