Good question and its one that everyone who owns a mobile device should think about.

TO do a full backup just follow thes steps, if you have any issues please, just drop a reply here

To make a full backup of your BlackBerry on your computer, follow these steps:

Cradle your device. If you have a password enabled, you must enter it before your device will connect to the desktop.

Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager and double-click the Backup and Restore icon to bring up the Backup and Restore dialog box.


If you wish to back up everything on your handheld, click Backup... . The default filename format is Backup-(today's date).ipd, for example, Backup-(2007-10-06).ipd. If you create more than one full backup in a day, an incrementing number will be inserted after the date. Select the desired filename and location and then click Save.
