Customizing contacts
About custom ring tones
You can assign a custom ring tone to a contact without changing other notifications.
Custom ring tone options appear with your contacts and your notification profiles. When you assign a custom ring tone to a contact, a new
profile exception appears with your notification profiles as "Calls From ". Notification profile exceptions are shared between your
contacts and your notification profiles and changes that you make in one application are made in the other application.
Your BlackBerry® device bases the volume for custom ring tones on the volume that you set in the active notification profile.
Assign ring tones and alerts to a contact
You can receive different ring tones and alerts for incoming messages and calls from specific contacts or groups of contacts. When you receive
a call or message from the contact, your device uses the assigned ring tone or alert, even if you switch your sound profile to Silent or Vibrate
Only. If you do not want to be notified with the assigned ring tone or alert, you can set your sound profile to All Alerts Off.

Troubleshooting: Contacts Custom contact list field data is not appearing on my computer
You can only synchronize the data in a custom contact list field with a text field in the email application on your computer. For example, you
cannot add a contact's birthday to a custom contact list field on your  BlackBerry® device and synchronize it with the email application on your
computer, because the birthday field is a date field in the email application on your computer.
Caller ID pictures are not appearing on my device
If your BlackBerry® device is associated with a Microsoft® Outlook® 2000 email account and you add a picture for a contact in the email
application on your computer, verify that the file name for the picture is ContactPicture.jpg.
My contact pictures keep changing
The contact pictures in applications (for example, in the contacts application), might change if you set more than one application on your
BlackBerry® device to replace contact pictures. Depending on how often or how many of your contact pictures are being replaced by other
applications, you might experience increased data charges.
To stop contact pictures from changing, you must change the options in each application that is replacing your contact pictures.User GuidePersonal organizer157
