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.

  • Passport for blackBerry sync

  • BlackBerry sync with Mac and the company smartphones?

    This is probably a stupid question, but I'm trying to download the contacts / calendar of my tour 9360, which allows you to synchronize wireless to my desktop via exchange pc / company setup on my mac home via the new software but do not know what I need, if anything to alter or TEMP change on blackberry tour 9360.  Trying to finally get contacts and calendar on my computer at home without the use of third-party software. Only one-way synchronization not care. BB Tour 9360 for Mac.  Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    On the BlackBerry, in each of these applications, disable wireless synchronization (open calendar > options > select the profile calendar you want to sync).

    Do the same for the address book.

    Once completed, don't forget to reactivate them both.

    Good luck.

  • Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8330 sync with Mac

    I just bought my Blackberry Curve and it is not sync with Mac pocket... is there a solution for mac users?

    If you have one of the new fast devices, you may need to use a patch.  It is not a problem with your device: it is just that the connection software has been changed AFTER the last program of PocketMac has been published.  A new is put to the test, but for the moment, there is a patch to connect to your new devices.  There is a special way to install it on top of the regular program of PocketMac, so just follow these steps and you should be able to connect:

    Is there a solution for this. First of all, go to the download page: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/mac.jsp

    and start the download process. When you move to the download screen, select PocketMac V4.0.20b for BlackBerry. Then, on the next screen, you have two choices of program to download.

    You've probably already downloaded the first one under the heading "PocketMac V4.0.20b for BlackBerry." If you have deleted it, go ahead and download again.

    Since you have one of the newer devices (like the 8110, 8120, 8130, 8310 or 8330), you may also need to download the patch that allows to connect you to those as well. This patch is on the same page, the section, "PocketMac Driver update - DriverUpdate.dmg."

    TO INSTALL:
    1 IMPORTANT: Disconnect your BlackBerry from your Macintosh.
    2. If you have uninstalled PocketMac for BlackBerry, reinstall the main program now.
    3. when the Setup program has finished, you will be asked to reboot. DO NOT CLICK on the button to restart.
    4. install the driver update file please, this installer will finish very quickly.
    5. Finally, restart the Macintosh, now that the software driver and application updater installers are completed.

    Once restart is completed, please launch PocketMac for Blackberry, then plug-in your BlackBerry handheld. Click the sync button to start the synchronization session.

    If you can still can connect, here are a few steps you can perform to ensure that the new patch is installed correctly:

    1. Please disconnect your BlackBerry and account up to 60 seconds. This allows for the
    driver for completely free. (Probably, the pilot was not out there the last time you tried to install the patch, if it has not installed correctly.)

    2. Please open Finder and navigate to the following location: MacintoshHD/System/Library/Extensions /.

    3. in the "Extensions" folder, you will see a list of .kext files. Scroll down the long list and locate the two files that begin with «BlackBerry» files

    4. Please remove these two files from your Mac: 'BlackBerry.kext' and 'BlackBerryUSBDev.kext '. You will need your administrator password Apple user account to delete these files in the Extensions folder. After in this case, empty your trash, please.

    6 reinstall the driver. When you finish the program installation/driver package, please reboot your Macintosh.

    7. Finally, plug your BlackBerry handheld, then launch PocketMac for BlackBerry. PocketMac Sync Manager should now be able to find your BlackBerry.

  • Passport for blackBerry lock screen stuck

    my passport for blackberry is blocked on the lock screen and does not allow me to enter my password once it comes to enter the characters appearing on the screen keyboard. I tried to restart and reset the phone via the volume and power buttons, but he returned to the same scene. the device doesn't erase itself after more than 10 wrong attempts (since for some reason it does not pass number 6) nor possible to do the same thing with USB connection through link blackberry because I can not enter a password sort (link suggestion does not work due to either http://support.blackberry.com/kb/articleDetail?articleNumber=000035751). the phone was bought on amazon , but on the product support once the PIN code is entered the system responds that this is NOT AN AMAZON PURCHASE. So basically with a new phone (just 3 months) no support what so ever?

    I want to be sure, I understand. You are able to slide up and reveal the password input box. Is this correct? I had the problem (no passport) where dragging up does nothing. But slide up in your case works, to the point where you can not enter the password characters that require you to use the software keyboard. What is the situation?

    As far as being stick to 6 incorrect entries, it's probably safety device that requires the user to enter the blackberry before the device allows the user to try again the password.

  • Passport for blackBerry that I don't get paste any word or text on google translator

    Hi all!

    First of all, I would like to say that I am happy with my new passport of BlackBerry, it is extraordinary and elegant, but its os 10 should be updated from time to time despite of Android OS. Everyone here should at least know the news...

    Well, I'll see... as I wrote on the subject, I don't get paste any word or text on google translator. Just copy-taste function is malfunctioning in some sites in my opinion.

    Please could someone help me?

    Thank you in advance.

    Kind regards

    I'm not sure.  I'll give you my suggestion, followed by the justification.

    First of all, try to restart the device and then try to paste again.  If this solves the problem, read more.

    You should be able to touch the screen inside a text field and then release and the device then displays a small icon which users click to paste.  One of the reasons for which the icon does not appear is because there is nothing to paste.  First make sure that you cut something first and if you think you have done, double check.  Also, try to paste into an email to project or a note in do not forget to check that you can paste it into a different text entry field.

    Paste the icon may not appear because the site does not allow to stick inside the field.  This can be found in the case of a password entry field sometimes.  But I wasn't expecting for a case as in your example.

    So, if you have restarted and also makes sure stick work in other applications, try the following.  1 type something in the text field.  For example, type xxx.  2. touch and hold on until xxxxxx xxxxxx is highlighted and the small window with the dough as one of the actions is displayed.  3. tap paste.  This will replace xxxxx with the content you are pasting.

    Some password fields, you cannot paste.  For example, if you copy a password or code officer password or another source and try to paste into one of these areas, the icon stick will not appear.   However, something striking in the field and select and paste above are a way around.  Your situation is not exactly the same, but perhaps the proposed trick work.

    If you paste wrong in any field, and restarting the device does not solve the problem, then we expect more deep.

  • [request] bbui js for a passport for blackberry

    I downloaded the Simulator, too. But it always shows error message "cannot locate the PNP bios.

  • BlackBerry sync with Google Calendar Blackberry smartphones

    HI, I managed to sync my main calendar for my Blackberry, but it doesn't seem to synchronize my other google calendars.

    I have 3 Calenders, one for me, one for CHILDREN that I share with my husband (and I also need this calendar on my blackberry to remember the events of those of children) and the calendar of my husband.

    At present, it is only to sync my main calendar. Does anyone know a way around it, so that it can synchronize all 3?

    Thank you!!

    While urhamilton gives good advice, as a new user I would offer that it could simply be that you didn't Sync to use all three.   I had the same problem and didn't you open Google Sync, go to Menu (the button left of the click wheel) and go to Options. There you can select the calendars to sync with.  I also have three and it works fine.

  • Problems of Smartphones blackBerry sync with outlook, following a back up and restore

    It gave me a new BlackBerry "BOLD" device to replace a defective. I did a sync with my outlook, contacts etc. calendar so all the information was up-to-date and then backed up all my data from the original handset. I then successfully restored all of this data to the new remote control.

    Since I was not able to properly synchronize my phone with outlook. the blackberry desktop manager no longer link the contacts in outlook with the correct contacts on the handset. It so happens with messages with "resolutions of conflict" where he compares with Emma Smith on the BlackBerry smartphone, contact for example John Smith on outlook - have nothing to do with eachother. Both Outlook and the handset have the same information, but they are more link successfully.

    I wondered if it has something to do with how contacts are identified by the Office Manager and if restore information from the new remote control has changed that on the device?

    As I have more than 600 contacts, I am very concerned about doing the wrong thing and lose vital information and so far nobody's confidence was able to tell me what to do.

    Please can someone help me solve this problem?

    Thank you

    If you have the data synchronized in Outlook as a backup, you will be ok. You can also use the backup and restore utility to perform another backup of the databases on the device.

    If you delete this folder, you will lose any information on the BlackBerry or Outlook. Start with the Desktop Manager closed before deleting this file. After that you remove it, connect the BlackBerry to your computer, then open the Desktop Manager.

    From the Desktop Manager 4.3, I think, the icon you would go in to reconfigure the settins would sync | Synchronize

  • 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.
