Put Multi-Media Items on External Memory

If you don’t have a MicroSD card installed in your Blackberry Pearl, you really should invest in one.  With picture, video and audio capabilities, you’re severely limiting the options you have for your Pearl.

Once you have your MicroSD card, make sure you move as much data over to it as possible.  Also make sure you configure your Pearl to store any new pictures, video or audio files to automatically go to your MicroSD card.  This is something your Pearl should guide you through automatically.

Now it’s time to move all of your previous media to your new MicroSD card. Here’s how:

1. Start on the main home screen (with all the icons)
2. Scroll to and click on “Media“
3. Press the Blackberry Button (with the 7 little dots)
4. Scroll to and click on “Explore“
5. Scroll to and click on “Device Memory“
6. Scroll to and click on “home”
7. Click on “user“
8. Scroll to and click on “music“
9. Select each item and press the “Blackberry Button“
10. Scroll to and click on “Move“
11. Click “Up” until you can see “Media Card“
12. Click on Media Card and select “Open“
13. Continue until you reach “Music“
14. Click on “Music” and select “Move“
15. Continue with the above steps until you’ve moved all your media over

This is all it takes to free up a large amount of space on your Blackberry Pearl. If you’re someone who has replaced your iPod with your Blackberry Pearl, you’re going to want to get as big a card as you can afford.
