The BlackBerry Curve includes a built-in camera that lets you take pictures and record video. In addition to the phone's internal memory, the Curve also supports microSD cards that allow you to store more media on your device. BlackBerry Desktop Manager comes with BlackBerry phones and provides a way to transfer media to and from your BlackBerry. You can use the software to save the pictures from your phone to your computer.

Step 1

Download and install BlackBerry Desktop Manager if you do not have it already (see Resources). Connect your BlackBerry's USB sync cable from your Curve to your computer and open BlackBerry Desktop Manager.

Step 2

Select "Pictures" under "Media Sync" on the left pane of the main window and select "Device Pictures." Select the check box next to each picture you wish to transfer. If you wish to import all pictures from your phone, select "All Device Pictures" from the drop-down menu.

Step 3

Select "Import" to transfer your selected pictures from your BlackBerry Curve.
