How Do I Get AOL on My Blackberry 8330?

The BlackBerry 8330 is built for making mobile connections, including email and instant messaging. AOL email is one of the most popular email services on the Internet. It makes itself available for the BlackBerry user through the email setup wizard. This allows BlackBerry users who have AOL email to access their inbox and compose new emails directly from the BlackBerry 8330 handset.

Instructions

1. Press the red end call/power button on your BlackBerry 8330 until the screen lights up. Press the menu key to go to the applications list. Scroll down the list of applications and click “Email Setup.”

2. Click “I want to create or add an email address” in the Email Setup menu. Click “Next” to continue.

3. Read over the terms and conditions page and click “I accept.” Enter your AOL email address and password. Click “Next.” Wait while the BlackBerry 8330 downloads the correct settings. Click “OK” to close the screen once you receive the confirmation that the email address has been added.

Tips & Warnings

• AOL email is different from AIM. If you would also like to access AIM (AOL Instant Messenger), download the application from the Blackberry website. (See Resource)
