Where is my picture that I just took?
If your BlackBerry device uses BlackBerry Balance technology, attachments saved from work email messages are only
accessible in the work space. Any pictures taken using your device camera, whether you opened the Camera app from
your work or personal space, are stored in your personal space. All of your media card files are also stored in your personal
space.
For example, since BBM is a personal app, to create a profile picture, you can use a picture taken with your camera, but
you can't use a picture that you downloaded from an email message sent to your work account.
What happens to my device data if I leave my organization?
Your administrator can delete all of your BlackBerry device data, including your personal content. This feature helps to
secure your device if your device was lost or stolen.
If your administrator turns on BlackBerry Balance technology, your administrator can delete your work data from your
device and leave your personal data and applications intact. Some of your personal data might be deleted from your device
if it overlaps with your work data (for example, a personal contact who works in your organization).
If you prefer to keep your personal data intact and only remove work data from your device, contact your administrator.
Work space and BlackBerry Balance
About BlackBerry Balance
BlackBerry Balance technology helps address corporate security concerns without limiting personal use of your BlackBerry
device. If your administrator turns on BlackBerry Balance, the device data, apps, and network access are separated so
that you have a work space and a personal space. The separate spaces help you avoid activities such as accidentally
copying work data into a personal app, or displaying confidential work data during a
BBM Video chat.
By default, your device uses the personal space. You can it use for activities such as taking pictures, downloading videos,
playing games online, saving files to a media card, and posting on a social network.
In your work space, you can access your work email, contacts, and calendar, create work documents, and browse to
corporate intranet sites. Your work space can include a separate version of BlackBerry World that contains the applications
you are allowed to download and use at work. If your work space is protected with a password, you must unlock your work
space to reveal the details about your work data.
You can quickly switch between spaces from the home screen. You can access both personal data and work data from
certain places, such as Search.
