How to Install Desktop Software 6 Silently

In previous versions of Blackberry Desktop Manger, there was a file in the installation directory called 'install.txt.'  In this file were parameters for the [INSTALL_OPTIONS] tag, which you could copy/paste into the setup.ini file in the install directory to customize your installation.
Desktop Software 6 does not have the 'install.ext' file, but it does have the setup.ini file.  I tried adding my old [INSTALL_OPTIONS] tags to the new setup.ini file but they don't work.  I ran the setup.exe file with the /? tag to see if I could get any insight on how to install silently.  All this gives me is the following:
Command line parameters:
/L language ID
/S Hide initialization dialog.  For silent mode use: /S /v /qn.
/V parameters to MsiExec.exe
/UA<url to InstMsiA.exe>
/UW<url to InstMsiW.exe>
/UM<url to msi package>
/US<url to lsScript.msi>
Do any of these command line parameters actually work?  Nope.
I am trying to perform silent installations of Desktop Manager, which is something I had no problem doing with previous versions, but now I can no longer perform silent installations.  Any help would be much appreciated.  Thank you.

Ended up solving my own problem.  
For those of you that want a completely silent unattended installation of desktop manager, just run the Blackberry Desktop Software.msi file with a /qn tag.  Simple enough.

    Hello leosherifi, there will be an option in your phone itself for updating the software(SWupdate). Or else connect your phone to PC using Nokia suite then use the update present in it. If the update is available then only you will be able to update.

  • How do install new software without a keyboard??

    I just got the mac mini without bluetooth.
    I am looking to add Belkin bluetooth but I do not have a keyboard - How do install new software without a keyboard??

    casimirtad-
    Tis a bummer. It is not a bad idea to have a cheap usb keyboard and mouse around for future troubleshooting purposes, but I am not sure that will get you past this.
    Have you tried plugging stuff in to see if it works? I don't have a happy feeling that it will but it couldn't hurt to try.

  • Installing desktop software fails

    When installing desktop software version 4.7 from disc or net, the install starts - asks you which language you would like, the comes up with the wizard was interrupted before software could be installed.....
    have tried various versions same result...
    can someone please help as i need to remove ticketmaster app which only works in america... not much good in uk
    Cheers

    I'm having the exact same problem going from treo 600 verizon to centro att and windows vista. the first install failed just like the above user, redid it and received no option to import data. Tried the suggested reinstall from the downloaded version and got the import option this time, but nothing shows up on the desktop, no old data, nothing.
    I notice in the data folders on my computer that the old file type are there, as well as the new types, with considerably smaller sizes, no doubt because there's no data in them. Looks like the new desktop is simply saving the old files, but did not actually convert them.
    I can't believe more people don't have this problem. I found one other similar post from a 650 user. someone suggested synching the old treo with the new desktop. i tried that too, but still no data appears (no error message either).
     Any help would be appreciated.

  • How to install the software without a data plan

    Hi,
    I just got the 8120 phone and did not buy the data plan. I tried to install the software and
    am stuck at the Integration Options page.
    I started with the Custom Setup -> and did not know what to remove because I do want the desktop and
    the ability to sync up my address book using the usb interface. That brings me to the Integration Options
    menu but I don't have any server to connect to or any Internet service to connect to. How do I move forward?
    Thanks,
    Sandhya

    I don;t have it in front of me at the moment but you can choose the typical or custom installation. You would choose the BlackBerry Internet Service I believe, then on the next screen you can choose your email client (if using Outlook , you would select Microsoft Exchange). After it's installed you can configure the synchronization options to sync when the device is connected to your computer.

  • Can't install Desktop Software properly with out Error 1406

    Hello All,
    I am running Win 7. Just can't seem to get the desktop software installed witout the Error 1406 coming up. I have tried doing a clean uninstall a few times but still can't get done.
    I have no trouble with getting it done in XP on my other compters!

    Go to Solution.

    Hi there!
    I agree...a full start over is in order. And, for your easier reference, here is the procedure that I give out.
    I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista/Win7, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
    1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
    2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
    KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
    Some have reported that there are more registry keys to remove than are discussed in that KB
    Others have reported the use of a registry cleansing tool to also be helpful
    3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
    https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code​=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
    Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchronizing via USB):
    KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
    4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/dow​nload_sites.jsp
    5) Install DTM to your PC
    6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
    Hopefully that will get things going again.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Can't install desktop software--​error message

    When I first tried to install the desktop software from the disk that came with my phone, something went wrong and the installation was incomplete.  I am unable to uninstall and start over, however, because when I open the Add or Remove Programs feature in the control panel, no blackberry software comes up as an option to remove.
    When I try to initiate the intallation process again (whether by disk or by download), I get the following error message in a box that says "InstallShield" at the upper left:
    An error occurred while downloading the file http://saturn.installshield.com/is/prerequisites/m​icrosoft.net framework 2.0 sp1.prq.  What would you like to do?
    I then have the option to retry or cancel.  If I hit retry, I get the same message.  If I hit cancel, I get the message:
    An error occurred while downloading the file http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/8/c/08c19​fa4-4c4f4ffb-9d6c-150906578c9e/NetFx20SP1_x86.exe.  What would you like to do?
    Again, I have to option to retry or cancel.  If I hit cancel, I get the message:
    The files for installation requirement Nicrosoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP1 could not be found.  The installation will now stop.  This is probably due to a failed, or canceled download.
    This time, I can click Yes or No.
    Any suggestions how I can get the desktop software installed onto my computer?
    Thanks!
    Annie

    Yes Microsoft removed it from their site, that's why I linked to the other site where you can download it from. 
    In the past if the clean uninstall steps for the Desktop Manager didn't work, than the windows utility always did the trick

  • Synchroniz​ing 8830 using previously installed Desktop Software

    I have 8830 and a Curve.  I have installed the Desktop Software that came with the Curve.  When I tried to install the software that came with 8830, I received an error message and I can't install it.  Neither am I able to sync 8830 with the current Desktop Software. 
    Since I need to use both the Curve and 8830, how do I go about synchronizing both devices using the same Desktop Software?
