Delete all contacts at once on Black

Solved

Hello,
I just bought a 8820 and I made the mistake of synchronizing too quickly with my Outlook: I now have over 2000 contacts.
How can I delete them all in one operation, is it possible?
Thank you to everyone who knows.

    Blackberry menu key
    then
    Options / Security Options / General Settings/Services
    Blackberry menu key
    then select: wipe handheld data
    your blackberry will ask you to type "blackberry" and then confirm by pressing ok, in one minute all data (contacts, messages..) from the device will be erased.
    good luck

    Well, the topic goes back two years, but still. Incredible, the guy asks how to erase JUST THE CONTACTS. And everyone responds to wipe 100% of everything on his Blackberry, incredibly stupid and backward.

    Connect your Blackberry to your PC with the USB cable. Open Blackberry Desktop Software (here I'm talking about version 6.0 bundle 1965), but it's similar for older versions. Click on the device at the top left, then click on Delete Data..., selected data, and click on Address Book - All, then click Delete at the bottom.

    Do not do (for any potential readers in 2012 and beyond) what is explained above, the idiots will have you format your Blackberry with their nonsense.

      You need to install the application: BlackBerry Desktop Manager via the CD provided with your BlackBerry purchase. Then you can make modifications on your BlackBerry, add or delete. There will be synchronization between the application and your BlackBerry. The same principle as with an iPod or iPhone, and iTunes.

      Also, if it is only a few contacts, you can do it manually on the BlackBerry directly with the delete key (del). You position yourself on a contact (it must be highlighted in blue), do not enter the contact, and press the del key.

      Honestly, thank you, I had the same thought as you: they weren't answering the question.

    You need to go to tools, then security settings. Once in security settings, press the key between the pearl and the hang-up button. In the menu that appears, press "clear terminal content."

        Options / Security Options / General Settings

        In services, at the very bottom, click on the ball (or on the button between the ball and the hang up button)

        There is an option to clear all terminal content...

    On MAC OS
    connect the Blackberry as if we want to synchronize contacts, calendars, etc.
    In the Blackberry menu (at the top of the screen), look for "wipe device data" and go for it...
    This should be equivalent in Windows.

    Good evening sir, I installed IncrediMail 2, the new version, a few days ago, and my issue is the following: in my contact list, some have changed servers, so I note the new address, but I cannot delete the old one, or an old contact. Can you please help me resolve this little problem via email? Thank you very much, best regards! MD.

    To delete a range of call logs, highlight a call log. Hold down the Shift key. Drag your finger up or down on the touchpad. Release the Shift key.
