Your BlackBerry PIN isn't a password; it's your BlackBerry smart phone
identifier. You can find the PIN by choosing Options➪Status on your
BlackBerry.
5. Decide whether to include user data and third-party applications and
then click Next.
If you want all the data, leave the screen untouched; this backs up every-
thing. Third-party applications are all the programs you installed — the
ones that didn't come with the device originally.
Some older BlackBerry applications cater to keyboard, trackwheel, and
trackballs, and might not work on the Storm. At first, include user data
only, not third-party applications.
A status screen appears, showing the progress of the backup operation.
When the backup is finished, the next screen prompts you to connect
your new BlackBerry Storm.
6. Connect your BlackBerry Storm to your PC with the USB cable.
The next screen, shown in Figure 16-3, lets you verify that your Storm
is connected properly, with your Storm's PIN preselected in the drop-
down list. It also asks for the password. Because data is already backed
up from the old BlackBerry, it doesn't matter whether you keep the old
device connected in succeeding steps.

7. Enter the password of your Storm and then click OK.
A screen similar to Figure 16-4 tells you what will be restored to the new
device. Nothing has been done to your new BlackBerry Storm yet, and
this is your last chance to cancel the process.
8. Click Finish.
A progress screen displays the loading process.
9. When the Success screen appears, click the Close button.
