BlackBerry Sync BB Curve with Lotus Organizer 6.1 smartphones?

How I got to where I am:

I tried to help my girlfriend to set up his new curve (8330 - Verizon) for synchronizing with Lotus Organizer 6.1.  (The system is a desktop computer Compaq running Windows XP Home).  The provided version of the Desktop (4.3) software does not support Organizer 6.x - at least it does not organizing as an option when trying to configure the synchronization PIM.  (RIM/blackberry are pretty stupid to drop compatibility with older software - how hard is it to continue to be able to read and write a single file format more?)  "And although the Organizer 6.1 is old, it is still sold by IBM because people like it even better than any other alternative).

Reading some forum posts and other material on this site is look like 4.2 version of the desktop software working with the organiser, so I uninstalled 4.3 and installed 4.2.

(Sign of bugginess 4.3: the wizard 'Remove Programs' hung during the uninstallation of version 4.3 - he has said it was uninstalling Roxio media software.)  What this has to do with the Destop Manager?  In any case, I had to put an end to the program and wenth through the registry by had then to remove references to the Blackberry Destop Manager.  After all this, 4.2 could install).

But now it seems that the 4.2 version of the Blackberry Device Manager cannot recognize the Curve 8330 - he reports no Blackberry device is connected, even if it is plugged into the USB port.

Issues related to the:

1. is there actually a way to get the Desktop Manager 4.3 working with Lotus Organizer 6.1?  (If it offers Organizer 6.0 that will work too).

2. otherwise, version 4.2 actually work with the Organizer 6.1?  If so, can I run version 4.2 of the Desktop Manager with version 4.3 of the Device Manager?  Where can I download just the Device Manager 4.3 without the Desktop Manager?

I know after jumping through hoops a lot I was finally able to get my Blackberry Desktop talk to the Organizer 6.1 right now, but it was MUCH more difficult than it should be.  (And I think that was with older versions of the software BB).

Thank you.

You were on the right track, however, it will not correctly work with versions of BB Desktop Manager that do not include the built in Organizer conduit.

I used the version 4.1.1 with a Curve 8320.

Basically, when you have reached the point where the curve is not known is where the rub. Older versions do not have the driver USB of the curve under the package. I installed 4.3 who had the right drivers for the 8320. Once installed, I copied this installation usbrim.* files in a folder on the desktop.

Uninstalled 4.3 and loaded Desktop Manager 4.1.1. Once installed, I copied the drivers usbrim.* in the desktop folder to their original location. Open the device upward and found Office Manager.

You were close. I haven't tried with 4.2, but know that it works with 4.1.

  • Bug in Smartphones blackBerry desktop Manager 4.2 synchronizing with lotus Organizer 6.1 after add my computer to my domain name...

    Hello!

    Since a few days, we began the transfer of all of the computers on your new DC - AD 2008 R2.

    Today, we make a single user who use the Desktop Manager to synchronize a calendar blackberry to a calendar of lotus Organizer. After the migration of the computer. The user can now log on to the domain and all the great work.

    But when we try to sync the BB its does not work.

    We repair the installation of the office 4.2 on the session of field Manager and redetect the BB from usb to the pc.

    Windows xp sp3 when the user's connection in local mode, the BB and the synchronization works between organizing 6.1 and Office Manager. When I log into the domain of the user account.

    Desktop Manager 4.2 after repair, opens correctly and the BB SPINDLE is a detection on USB port

    I could go into the config sync configuration section the link between the organizer and BB.

    In the section to display the list of available applications to synchronize.

    If I choose the option to ascii file, I have a button to select the ascii file on the local drive or local network.

    But when I select the type of file in lotus organizer, the button Choose the .or6 is not available...

    This browse button is not in the local user account.

    I guess that's a Group Policy object or other things like that that block this option...

    I copy the folder "black berry" and "Research and motion" of the data folder of the application on my local user to my my domain user application data folder.

    After I have restart the Desktop Manager 4.2 on my domain on the computer user account.

    When the application start and open, his attempt to sync with BB, synchronization will find some files for the transfer, but the accident during the transfer.

    When I go on the synchronization configuration option to choose my .or6 file, now I find out the name of my file and lotus Organizer connector have a yellow arrow that one as my or6 file is create.

    But the Browse button is still not at the bottom of the configuration window.

    So I couldn't go for a new selection of my file.

    Normally this window gives the link information and the name of the file

    ex: c:\agenda\bob.or6

    Now, I find out only bob.or6 on my sync window...

    When I check in the synchronization log link

    I discovered the full link of my or6 files, and I discover that I have connect on it, try to read some information on the calendar. and a log file end with an error code. Sorry I don't remember the code and I forgot to take the code in the note...

    I'll post the code tomorrow morning.

    I think maybe it's rules, which are applicable by the DC on the computer which block access to the file in writing or another

    things like that. We add the domain of the user as a member of the administrator group, because the configuration of Desktop Manager 4.2 require it to start the Setup program and install the software...

    Someone has an idea of the problem?

    emarck

    I found the solution!

    This morning, I do the test install desktop manager 4.2 and my blackberry curve on a pc freshly up toward my area.  This pc has never seen a prior blackberry...

    For people who are interesting to do the same, I put here the step by step guide:

    1. If a blackberry is always on the client pc uninstall all software

    Uninstalling lotus Organizer 6.1

    uninstall the Desktop Manager 4.2

    and accept to clean all the files of configuration during the process.

    Remove the blackberry device in Device Manager

    2. update the pc on the domain if is not always do.

    3. connect with the domain on the pc user, and not with the local section!

    4. once the session is entirely built, out of them and log in the local session the user (if it is admin on the pc), or a local administrator user...

    Go to the management console to add to the computer administrator group, the domain user that use the blackberry.

    Disconnect you and relog on domain user session.

    5. now, we are ready to start the lotus Organizer 6.1

    6. start the Desktop Manager 4.2 Setup program may restart or not at the end.

    7. When Desktop Manager 4.2 Setup is complete, start the software

    After some time. Windows might be on the screen.

    8. connect the BB on the usb port of the pc, let windows detect the new hardware.

    On small Yvon, when windows detects a new hardware BB, you need to push the drivers for usb BB by the device

    Manager let windows to accept the installation of the BB,

    Best practice I find to do that, is to extract the drivers ubs since the original cd of blackberry.

    Because, if you put the cd of BB on the pc, he wants to start the Desktop Manager installation program include on the cd.

    This version is younger and does not work with 6.1 lotus Organizer, so the BB will be perfectly detect in windows, but when you try to change to version 4.2, you must uninstall the new and valuable pilots at the same time...

    You can find the drivers in the cab file on the BB installation cd.

    I'm Audrey curve and "BOLD" use the same drivers...

    9. the Organizer is now ready, DM 4.2 is running and your BB is detect and loans in the windows taskbar...

    Go to the DM 4.2 and detect your BB device, when it is detect and connect ready,.

    Go to the option synchronize, select your .or6 file and associate it. Browse Famouse could be

    present on the bottom of the windows when you select the format of lotus organizer file.

    When the configuration is complete, don't forget to check the box for automatic synchronization when users plug in the BB to the

    computer...

    10 test communication between BB and PC

    Normally is Dm4.2 is open and the or6 file is available on a local drive or a card reader, the communication could be a success!

    I hope this might help other people )

  • Hotsync configuration to work with XTNDConnect PC connection with Lotus Organizer 6.1

    I work for the synchronization of the configuration between my Tungsten E2 and Lotus 6.1 using a Palm Desktop 4.1.4 Hotsync Manager 4.0.4 with 3rd party XTNDConnect PC.  This is done in an operating system from Vista Home Premium 32 bit.  I have the synchronization between Palm Desktop & TungstenE2.  However none of the organizing files are picked up.  At the same time, the log synchronization on the Tungsten E2 shows a successful synchronization.  I think that the problem is in the right configuration of Hot Sync Manager. Someone could talk me through it.

    Thank you

    Howard

    Problem solved.  I have chnaged to parameters in the hot Sync Manager for all channels to 'sync' organizer and all channels funds to 'No Action'.  As for the source of the name used from the end of the name of the file Organizer "Howard Harrison.or.6".

    As a result, a full synchronization from the desktop and the Tungsten E2.  Palm OS versions that work with Lotus Organizer 6.1 are Palm One Desktop 4.1.4 containing Hot Sync Manager 4.0.4. XTNDConnect PC as the 3rd party software is excellent.

  • Smartphones blackBerry sync with Lotus Organizer to Outlook migration

    For years I was syncing my BB, including the storm with my Lotus Organizer PIM, uses an earlier version of Desktop software. Recently, my time schedule of synchronization, so I finally had to bite the bullet and convert all my data of Outlook Organizer, I did, I think that properly. Then I did a sync with the latest Desktop and Outlook software. What's happened is that he created many entries of duplicate calendar and contacts of those on the BB. What I would do is to remove all my data, contacts, calendars, to do, etc, but not the applications that I have on the device, then re - sync and hopefully get that one set of data on the BB, is there a way to remove this information without deleting all the other modules that I have on the device? Thank you.

    Yes! This only deletes your device calendar data.

    1. Connect your BlackBerry to your PC via the USB port.
    2. Open the Desktop Manager.
    3. Click on backup and perform a full backup of your device before you proceed to the next step.
    4. Once that is complete, go back to backup/restore > advanced. You will see a left and right window, your right pane is your device data.
    5. Scroll the window for calendar data, so that the line is highlighted, and then click CLEAR below.

    Now, you can resynchronize your Outlook data on the device.

  • Problem syncing of Smartphones from blackBerry with Lotus Notes 8 (Windows - no synchronization farm)

    Hello world

    I have a problem with the replication of a Blackberry Storm (9500) with Lotus Notes 8.0.2. The desktop software that I am running is version 4.7.0.25 on Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3.

    After setting up the synchronization of calendar and address book, when you synchronize manually, start the pop-up windows, where one would expect to see the progress bar of the just closed synchronization after a splitsecond.

    Even if I put the journal setting within the highest synchronization propertiesto possible value, no log is written at all.

    The Windows event logs do not show only one entry for that matter.

    When trying to auto-sync after connecting the usb with the computer devicethrough blackberry cell phone, the device is recognized, but still there is no synchronization.

    Everyone knows a similar problem before?

    Any hint is appreciated.

    Thank you much in advance.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones new update S/W for 8900 blocks Desktop manager with Lotus Notes Calendar

    I am using Notes 8.0.2 and using the Desktop Manager to synchronize contacts and calendar.

    After the upgrade of your handheld S/W, released last week, the Desktop Manager synchronization crashes when it tries to read the lotus notes calendar. For this, the address book with no problems, but when it starts to read the calendar notes, it crashes.

    I have used other sync software that accesses the calendar notes just to check my notes calendar was not inaccessible for any reason whatsoever and that worked well.

    If it's a version management issues with Notes 8.0.2 is there a way I can go back to the previous version of the portable software that works well so far? Otherwise, any suggestions to solve this problem?

    I'm done deleted my calendar on the device by following the instructions on this thread http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=8900&thread.id=403

    After that, my two-way synchronization now works with Lotus Notes Calendar.

  • Passport for blackBerry sync with Mac

    Does sync Passport seamlessly with iCal, iPhoto, Contacts etc. on Mac and iPads, or mixture of Blackberry bypass Apple completely applications

    Thinking of upgrading my iPhone 4 s. logical step is the iPhone 6 due to how Apple integrates devices, but the Passport looks like a phone.

    I've upgraded from an iPhone 5 and are very happy with the passport and how it works with my Mac.

    TL; Dr

    Synchronization of a passport with Mac works fine for everything else photos. ICloud same sync works fine. Photos also works, but not as easy as it is with the iPhone and a mac. The BlackBerry has a lot of productivity as a bonus feature.

    The timing looks like this for me:

    -Music, timings of passport via BlackBerry link, works very well. No need to convert songs to iTunes, link them he finds himself. Easy.

    -E - books, I transfer books and other files via BlackBerry mixture. He has a very good file manager and records for books are already there. Easy.

    -Files, see above. File management is easier than the iPhone and iTunes. More control. Easy.

    -Calendar, email and contacts, the passport of BlackBerry has a calendar way better than the iPhone. The e-mail client is also much better. All synchronization via iCloud flawless.

    -Photos, the link is supposed to sync t with iPhoto, but I did not it works. And besides I use Aperture. I I want the synchronization of the picture, I have to manually transfer the photos via the file manager. Hard, but not a big deal for me.

    And the Passport is a really good device communications and productivity. Physical keyboard, I missed it so much! A large touch screen that works well for playback of all. And little things, as a special note app taken easily accessible during phone calls and with the notes related to the call, super nice.

  • BlackBerry Smartphone Sync Outlook calendars with several "layers".

    Hello

    I have several 'layer' in my calendar in Outlook as Holiday, private, office, etc... When I sync the calendar with my H/H, however not appear only the default calendar being sync. Is it possible to synchronize the other layers as well?  Thanks a bunch...

    Hello

    The object is to get all records associated with a calendar, which can be synchronized with Outlook.

    The default calendar is the calendar of the device, items synced to it will not correctly synchronize on the desktop.

    (1) delete your addresses of e-mail of the device.

    (2) use the link below to clear the Calendar database.

    (3) recreate the e-mail address you want to associate with your main calendar.

    4) go to default services and make sure that your email address for the main calendar is specified

    in the CICAL and CMIME entries. Save it.

    (5) in the Office Manager, specify a one-way synchronization of Outlook to the device for the calendar only.

    (6) once successful, check the calendar of primary e-mail and make sure that all records are there.

    (7) run synchronization for each category separately until you have all the correct data on the BB.

    (8) recreate the second email address.

    (9) send service directories.

    (10) the BB has now all the calendar entries in the calendar main correct email, with no record in another.

    (11) on the PC, delete the intellisync folder and reconfigure the installer for normal 2 way sync.

  • Problem of Smartphones blackBerry sync with Outlook 2007.

    I was sync my "BOLD" with none of the problems of all founded. When I tried it sync today, the program stops saying that there is a mistake as soon as he tries to synchronize the calendar.

    Someone had this problem today?

    I have a BlackBerry Bold, Outlook 2007 and BB Desktop Manager 5.0

    I think they meant you could try to wipe the device. Just note that by doing this, ALL data on your device will be wiped. Do you want to go into the Options | Security options | General settings. In this screen, you click on the menu button and select wipe Handheld.

    My suggestion would be to try just to clear the Calendar database. To do this, you open the Desktop Manager and go to the backup and restore icon. Then click on the Advanced button. On the right side you will see all the databases on your BlackBerry. Then you can simply select the Calendar database and press the Clear button. This will keep everything in tact and erase all your device calendar entries.

    After that's done you can try to synchronize again.
