Address book Weirdness
 
My daughter just gave her BB Storm to my son and went with the Droid. I had not removed the Storm's PIN from her address book entry. I did remover her from my BBM contact list, and added the PIN to my son's address book entry. I then added him (and the Storm) to my BBM contact list.

Now, when I get a text message from my daughter, HIS photo is displayed instead of hers.

Has anyone seen this? Anyone know how to resolve it? I am away from home for the next few days and do not have my PC with the address book backup/Outlook databases available until I return home...

do not have display pictures, their caller ID pictures from the contacts application appear in BlackBerry Messenger instead.

2. On the contact list screen, in a contact category, highlight a contact.
3. Press the Menu key.
4. Click Link to BlackBerry Contact.
5. Perform one of the following actions:
