How to Create a Blackberry Browser Home Page

A BlackBerry has a help icon that can get you through setting up email and basic controls. However, a few tasks do not seem to be covered in the information the Setup Wizard gives you. One of these tasks is setting your BlackBerry's browser home page. The home page preset usually depends on your carrier. More often than not, that is not what you would like to use for your own personal home page. No matter what site you choose, altering your home page to something personal is a quick process.

Things You'll Need

• BlackBerry
• Wireless data plan

Instructions

1. Click on the browser on your Blackberry and let your home page open fully.

2. Use the menu button, select "Go To" and using either your bookmarks or the selection field, navigate to the website you wish to use for your new home page. Let that page open completely before continuing.

3. Select the menu button once again and select "Options." Then click on "Browser Configuration."

4. Scroll down to the bottom to "Home Page" and press on the "Use Current" button. You will see the address change to the current page you were viewing.

5. Press the menu button and select "Save Options" to confirm and save your selection. The next time you choose "Home" your new home page will appear.

Tips & Warnings

• You can opt to enter the address directly beside the "Home Page" listing, but careful to enter the full and complete address to avoid any errors.
