Purpose of the blackBerry Desktop Smartphones software

I have loaded the BB 8300 desktop software but have not inititated (if that's what it's called) my phone with it yet. My phone seems to work ok now with some minor disorders as categories are badly named. What is the purpose of the BB Desktop software? -MT

Desktop Manager has multiple uses...

-Backups

-Restorations

-Switch from one device to another

-Loading operating systems

-loading applications third and themes

-sycing with desktop PIM such as Outlook

.. and more.

  • As part of the Blackberry Desktop Manager software blackBerry Smartphones calendar

    Hi all

    It would be a good idea to have the BB calendar as part of the Blackberry Desktop Manager software, then head of could be made on the PC and then synchronize with a BB or vice versa all.

    I don't have a company server, simply old MS Outlook on my PC.

    Kind regards

    Leslie.

    Hello

    As what I suppose be a business strategy, RIM specifically does not provide a PIM/Organizer with their software. Rather, they provide guidance to PIMs different so that the user has the choice as to which PIM they prefer. See the matrix for which PIMs are supported by different versions of the RIM DTM software:

    BES is not required to synchronize a calendar with a BB. Indeed, you can synchronize with the tools available today, two-way calendar, contacts, email, etc. etc. etc.

  • Use only the blackBerry PDA Smartphones

    How can I synchronize a blackberry that I use as a PDA only?  I have Lotus Notes at work.  And I thought I'd be able to synchronize the blackberry with this via the USB connection.  Is this possible?  I was a user pilot Palm and I want the same functionality I had previously.  Only, I have a blackberry because my office only allows BB 8800 or better.  I don't have a wireless plan.

    There is the Blackberry Desktop Manager software to make the synchronization between the device and Lotus Notes.

    You can download it here: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/

    Download, install, connect your device via USB cable to your desktop computer and run Blackberry Desktop Manager.

    In addition, make sure you use only the root USB ports... without hubs (sometimes the front-end ports are hubs... use a rear USB port). And don't forget to try to disable the USB power management in the configuration of your system (Device Manager).

    Check also on the incompatible software... it was reported that NTI Shadow Ninja & software can cause a conflict; Remove and reinstall the desktop software BB allows to install correctly.

    My apologies in advance if this is redundant - there is no way to be sure that if you have already seen and tried these. Also apologies if all are not currently available... RIM takes their monte and descends at will as they revise things.

    I hope that something it is useful!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones is it possible to see my phone numbers and addresses I saved in the blackberry Desktop Manager

    I know it's maybe a silly question - but I was finally able to download the blackberry Desktop Manager and then back up all the data from my blackberry to my computer via Desktop Manager.  For my own peace of mind, I would like to see some of these data (addresses and phone numbers) just to make sure I did the back up properly.  Is this possible?

    Well, your confidence level in the backup process is your own to define. Maybe if you start the restore process, but do not actually run it, DTM might give you indications of what it contains. I agree that I saw the posts of others who say that the backup was useless... but I have no way of judging if their characteristics are identical to yours.

  • Smartphones from blackBerry Desktop Manager software - random number generator

    Hello

    I have a blackberry that I configured to synchronize with an outlook account. The other day when it is plugged, I received a message that pops up saying something about a "random number generator '. When I searched the problem of people said to uninstall/reinstall the Desktop Manager software with the latest version. So I downloaded the latest version of the software, and when I ran everything has been disabled. When I uninstall/reinstall the version that we used before the same thing, everything has been disabled. This could be the cause of this problem? I guess it must be a hardware problem.

    Thank you for your time.

    Is it necessary to have separate BB sd card to get an accessible drive in 'My computer' and so we can copy files programmatically.

    What is the price of media card (say 1 GB).

    on your device, you have internal memory (aka the device memory) and you have a microSD (aka memory support).
    memory support can be seen by your PC using USB mass storage (which you can do on the first Blackberry).
    the device memory can not be seen like that. The Roxio Media Manager can do that, as well as a module of the Desktop Manager 4.7 (does not work on 4.6 and earlier).

    a Sandisk 4 GB media card costs cheaper 4USD on Amazon.

    Yes it is possible. You can search for resources on the top of this page, in the "DEVELOPERS" link If you have any questions about this you can post them on the set of 'Java development' on this forum.

  • Padlock icon of lack of Smartphones blackBerry desktop after software upgrade

    Hello

    I have the Blackberry curve 8520.  I've just updated the version of the software from V4.2 to V5.2.

    Now, I have no icon on the desktop to lock the keyboard.  Even when I use * and the Enter key, do not command.

    I tried to solve this problem all day.  Thanks in advance

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    The locking function has changed. Now, you must use the lock button on the top of your BB to lock the keyboard. If you assign a password lock to your BB, you will have an additional homescreen icon to activate that. That's how it works now and there is no method to reverse (save, if course, to fall back to your older operating system worked differently).

    Good luck!
