Desktop Manager and Content Protection

Hi,
We've enabled content protection across all our devices via an IT policy. We are noticing that now, when some users try to connect to their devices via the desktop manager, the manager hangs.
Is this just a coincidence or is there problems connecting to devices with content protection enabled?

I'm glad I found this thread.
I loaded the Desktop Manager and Roxio Media Manager 2 days ago. It completely crippled my laptop (running Vista, 4GB RAM etc), which previously ran very well.
I suspected it was Roxio when I watched it take 20 minutes to install.
Worringly, my laptop was crippled without the Desktop or Roxio software being used. The response rate was once every 5 minutes, and when eventually getting to the Task Manager and looking at the Processes and Applications (a 15 minute job!), there was nothing untoward.
Having uninstalled them and rebooted, the laptop is back to its former glory so quite what Roxio was doing in the background, I have no idea. I won't be touching it again.

    Am unable to do an initial sync between Desktop Manager and BB Curve 8320.  Am getting error The computer must be connected to the Internet in order to initially configure synchronization settings.

    Hi,
    First we need to do a clean install of the DM you have on, this will clean up the other installation as well,

    After you are down download DM 4.5 with NO MEDIA MANAGER from here:
    https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code​=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
    Just for trouble shooting purpose, turn off firewall and virus checkers,
    Bring DM, go through the setup wizards, connect your BB and do a BACKUP first
    Let me know how it goes!

  • Desktop manager and windows 8

    I have attempted to get desktop manager to work with windows 8 for months.  I have ensured that I have followed various instructions including enabling .net 3.5 without success.  I install the desktop manager and my computer recognises the playbook when I plug it into a usb, however, the blackberry software does not  connect to the playbook.  Have tried turning off avast antivirus without success.
    Can anyone helpl with an alternative, please?
    It works with my MAC computer but not with my windows laptop!
    alun.
    Thanks

    I have the exact same situation, and to make it worse I can't even get the desktop manager installed, let alone work.  I keep getting error message #1723.  It's hard to know whether it's a Windows problem or a Blackberry problem, although if it works on your Mac I guess it's a Windows problem.  I bought a new laptop and am having trouble with a lot of incompatibility problems with Windows 8.1.  I'll have to revert to my old Windows 7 laptop unless someone comes up with an answer.  Hopefully someone in the Community has one [fingers crossed]. 

  • Desktop manager and Desktop Software

    Is there a differnce bewteen desktop manager and desktop software?  I'm trying to find  a link to download desktop manager.  I was told by t-mobile tech support to run application loader and I need desktop manager in order to run that application.  The reason why i need to run the application is that my firewall setting is enable with the 'lock' icon and it's preventing me from running applications that need to connect to the internet.  I was told that running application loader would remove the lock icon so I can disable the firewall setting.
    Thank you,
    New BB user.  

    OK...so those instructions are...well...dated...they indeed are for the full Desktop Software. Basically they have advised you to update your BB OS to the latest version in the hopes that the lock on the firewall will be removed. They did discuss the backup, but I actually prefer to take a manual backup first, then let the automatic one go, but I still have that manual one just in case.
    I can't see what any of those jpg's are, so I'm not sure exactly what they are saying.
    Anyway, there are other possible causes, but it's not necessarily wrong to follow those steps...it's just that they may or may not work...and before you ask, it's impossible to tell you, at an internet distance, anything at 100%.
    If you prefer, here's a different method to update your OS:
    From a PC, you can install any OS package to a BB via this procedure:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
    Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. You can even use a different carriers OS package by simply inserting, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, of a file named VENDOR.XML. Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure. You will also first want a clean and complete list of all of your add-on apps, including the source of them and activation keys.
    If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

  • Desktop manager and Home and Work email

    Hi folks,
    I have Desktop Manager installed on both my home and work computers. At home, email is grayed out and I can do nothing as it says I do not have a connection to the server.
    At work, it is active, but only addresses my work email from the Exchange Server and not my personal email which is set up through Blackberry and works on my phone. But sometimes I like to change the signature, etc.
    Is there no way to get both on one or both instances of Desktop Manager to avaiod having to go to att.blackberry.com for personal email configuration?
    Thanks!
    ~Bob

    But your personal email is NOT on BES... those are two totally different animals.
    ON BIS the Desktop Manager has nothing to do with mail and messages.

  • Desktop management and Remote access on OES 2 SP1?

    I am preparing a migration of several servers from NW 65. SP6 to OES 2 SP1 Linux. One of those servers has ZENworks 7 Desktop Management/Middle tier server installed.
    I am seeing statements in the documentation which make me wonder.... We use Desktop Management mostly for remote access, only now and then for inventory. I can live with the idea of doing a fresh install of ZENworks 7 desktop management following migration, and then importing the workstations anew.
    I am planning on upgrading to ZENworks 10 later in the year. However, under the circumstances I am wondering if the migration might be a good time to jump to ZENworks 10 Configuration Management? I understand that Console1 goes away(?) but I do not understand what is to take the place of Console1.
    Do any of you have experience with making that leap? What are the major considerations I should be looking at?

  • Synchronis​ation between Desktop Manager and Torch9800

    Hi Guys,
    When I perform a synch between my BlachBerry Desktop Manager software and my mobile device I lose data in the Microsoft Outlook note fields held on the desktop.
    It appears that some of my contact note fields on my Torch device are locked to restrict the amount of data held, so as I increase my notes in Outlook on my desktop and then synchronise at the end of the day, I lose data at the botton of the Outlook notes field.
    Fortunately, I always add the latest notes to the top of the notes field, so my most recent notes are saved but much of my history is deleted.
    I would appreciate somebody contacting me, if they have experienced a similar problem and found a fix.
    Is there a setting in the device which allows me to increase the Outlook field data space?
    Many thanks,
    Brian Williams.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    It sounds like you are running up against this limitation:
    KB13255 Notes field for the BlackBerry smartphone Address Book is truncated
    It is a limitation...there is nothing you can adjust on your BB to increase the size of that field.
    Good luck!

  • Blackberry Desktop Manager and Mac

    I have a new 8530 Curve and I am not able to sync my contacts through Desktop Manager. My calendar syncs fine but when I try to sync my contacts the program freezes up about 3/4 of the way through. Has anybody had this problem and how did you solve it?

    Here is what I did to save my contacts without the need for Desktop Manager on my BB Storm (since I had the same problem as you are running in to):
    Via Bluetooth, I paired my BB and my Mac Powerbook G4 (keeping both discoverable). Then I went in to MANAGE CONNECTIONS on my phone, then BLUETOOTH OPTIONS and I highlighted my computers name (do not click on it). Push the MENU button on your phone and in there I found TRANSFER CONTACTS. It sent a Bluetooth file of my phonebook contacts right on to my computer. After that, I transferred it in to my Mac address book, they all remain highlighted, and you can create a new group in your address book and drag them into there for future use. At least I was able to preserve and save my phones contact list without worry before updating software.
    Hope this helps! I am new to this forum, and love that you all have helped me greatly. I have been on a Mac since 3 months before Apple released it back in the 80's (I worked at Apple in NY). And I have been on BB's since they first arrived on the scene. Love to share any info I find, and than you for your info! Terij

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    No need to yell:
    http://kathrynvercillo.hubpages.com/hub/What-Peopl​e-Think-When-You-Type-in-All-Caps
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Solution Manager and Content Server / KW

    Hey guys,
    Im supposed to assess the advantages of using a content server instead of the database used by SolMan to store documents.
    Found some articles about connecting the content server but got confussed about the whole knowledge warehouse thing that seems somehow to be integrated in SolMan.
    Apparently that's a different Version of the KW, providing a change history but lacking some other features. Found e.g.  this document here: [Solution Manager and SAP KW Documents |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm40/helpdata/EN/a4/4f691faacf423db80f286787c5a527/content.htm]
    Can someone give me an overview about what's possible by using these two things togehter?
    It's been kind of hard to find some good infos and I'm relatively new to that topic (especially the KW thing), so I really hope you guys can help me.
    Cheers Joerg

    Hello LuongDK,
    Please refer to the FAQ section on http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager, Check the installations section:
    Which system should I use to install SAP Solution Manager?
    The system has to be dedicated to the SAP Solution Manager. No other components can be installed on top of SAP Solution Manager.
    SAP Solution Manager does not necessarily require separate hardware. It can be installed as a separate instance on an existing hardware.
    This means that the hardware can be shared if it is sufficient to support 2 systems. However a MCOD option is not recommended at all.
    Regards
    Amit
