How do i change my primary email on my phone?

somehow i changed my default email-calendar etc to my home email instead of my work email.  How do I change it back?

 

also I just updated my bb software yesterday and now I do not have the option to delete my work email on the server or just my phone. I still have this on my home email which is not necessary.

 

thanks

Welcome to the forums!

 

Go to Options>Device>Advanced System Settings>Default Services.  This is where you change the defaults for e-mail and calendar.

Mr. jdougherty... you're treading on thin ice here marking all the SECOND and SLOWER posts as the solution. :smileywink:

Just kidding of course, but give me a break.

Re: How do i change my primary email on my phone?

When I get to 'Default Services',  my old email is highlighted in all fields (Calendar, Contact List, & Messaging).  How do I delete this email & add a new one?

Torch 9800 Cannot change default service (for contacts) when it only shows one option

[ Edited ]

Torch 9800 :

I downloaded an update (6.0  2921???) and it changed my default server for my contacts. Calendars etc show me all email addresses  under default and I can choose any address but contacts only shows one and will not let me change it or type a new one.  No enterprise server is involved but it shows it trying to activate and I cannot get rid of that either.

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

NB Calendar says CICAL, Messaging says CMIME, Contact says SYNC.  Does this mean anything??
