Back up your device data

Using a computer and BlackBerry Link, you can back up and restore most of the data on your BlackBerry device. You can

back up your settings, phone history, fonts, saved searches, messages, organizer data, browser bookmarks, and media

files.
You should regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you update any software.

Maintaining a current backup file on your computer might allow you to recover device data if your device is lost, stolen, or

corrupted by an unforeseen issue.
Note: If your device is activated on an Enterprise Mobility Management solution from BlackBerry, contact your

administrator to verify if you are able to back up and restore your device data.
