Blackberry Desktop Software not allowing me to import my contacts to PC

I followed all of the instructions perfectly but cant seem to import my contacts from my Curve 8520 to my computer using the blackberry software. There is an information bar that says there are settings on my device that are preventing syncronisation of some items and below that a link in blue - Turn Off Wireless sync - I have tried to click this link and follow the instructions but, my Curve does not even have the wireless sync option... somebody please help me!!!!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
There could be two places on your BB that have wireless sync turned on, preventing the Desktop Sync from working. One is within the email configuration, and the other is within the options within the Contacts app.
However, if you indeed are using wireless sync for your contacts, then using a secondary desktop sync is actually unwise, isn't it? If you, for example, are syncing your contacts OTA against GMail, then you should be using the GMail interface to your contacts from your computer rather than trying to sync from the device to some computer PIM (e.g., Outlook).
Then again, not knowing your full situation, I'm only guessing...
Good luck!

    It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Indeed, the Desktop Software does not work with BB10 devices. Instead, you need the LINK software...available here:

  • Blackberry Desktop Software not accepting password

    I haven't knowingly changed my password for Blackberry Desktop Software, but it's not accepting it. I tried 9 times hoping to get the security question prompt but I didn't get it. I have only one more chance or it will wipe out my data. I don't have a data plan. I just use it as a phone, camera, etc.

    It should be the same password used to access your device. Make sure you're not mixing up numbers and letters. Many people make the mistake of thinking they're typing numbers on the device only to be typing letters and while you think you're pushing 1 2 3 4 on the device keyboard you're really pushing the letters w e r s.

  • Blackberry Desktop Software Not Accessible after Reinstall

    I was having trouble syncing my Outlook calendar, so I took some advice from this forum to unistall and reinstall the Blackberry Desktop software V4.2.2 for my Blackberry Curve.  I did so and took it through Application loader, but now that nifty desktop software icon is gone from my desktop and I can't find a way to connect to sync at all.  How do I access the software to sync if I can't find the software on my computer at all?

    If you check under Start | Programs, see if there's a BlackBerry folder listed. If so, look for Desktop Manager. If you find it you can right-click the icon and choose Send To | Desktop to recreate the shortcut that you had on your desktop before. You can also verify that it still is installed on your computer by going to Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs to see if the BlackBerry Desktop Software is listed.

  • Blackberry Desktop Software not recognize my device

    Hello, I speak from Brazil.
    After update my Blackberry Desktop Software, it no longer recognizes my device, a Torch 9800. My windows is the Seven. How to fix this problem? Gratefull

    Hi all.  I had the same problem and spent several hours on the phone with Blackberry Support.  Its a problem with the latest update.  Here is what fixed the problem:
    Finally got it working again! Re-downloaded the desktop software (but when you start it up, make sure to uncheck the automatic update option). While that was downloading, I was instructed to go to microsoft.com and search for and download .NET Framework 3.5. Once you click to download that, there will be an offer to download 2 other items. One of which will be Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile (Web Installer). Click to download that too. Once they are finished downloading, run both files. .Net Framework 4 Client Profile will take longer and will ask you if you want to repair or remove. Choose repair. The repair took several minutes, but once it was done, I clicked "Finish", opened the BB Desktop Software, UNCHECKED THE AUTO UPDATE OPTION, and plugged in my phone. Once windows finished installing the drivers, Low and behold! The Desktop software recognized that the phone was connected! I hope this helps you resolve your issue as well. When it again offered me an update I clicked to update later (meaning never!). Best of luck to you.

    Also, check that you are using only root USB ports...no hubs (sometimes the front-side ports are hubs...use a rear USB port). And make sure to try disabling USB power management in your system configuration (Device Manager).
    Also check on conflicting software...it has been reported that the software package NTI Shadow&Ninja can cause a conflict; removing them and reinstalling the BB desktop software allows it to install correctly.
    Apologies in advance if this is redundant -- there's no way to be sure if you've already seen and tried these. Also apologies if any are not presently available...RIM takes them up and down at will as they revise things.
    Hopefully something there is helpful!

  • BlackBerry Desktop Software displays the error "Caught _com_error exception. Description(): (null): Error(): -2147319779 (0x8002801D). ErrorMessage(): Library not registered.:Source(): (null)." when attempting to synchronize organizer data

    BlackBerry Desktop Software displays the error "Caught _com_error exception. Description(): (null): Error(): -2147319779 (0x8002801D). ErrorMessage(): Library not registered.ource(): (null)." when attempting to synchronize organizer data.Can someone help me with this?  

    Tried clean wipe and reinstall. Immediately after reinstall of DM, in setting up my 9900 "for the first time", I received the following error message...
    "Either there is no default email client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please open Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
    I opened Outlook 2013 and checked that it was the default mail client. It was already.
    After going in and clicking to confirm default email client, I was allowed to proceed to configure organizer sync settings. I configured memo only (one way from device). I then received the same error message that I was receiving (per my original post in the last message). I've previously tried configuring only one type of organizer sync and not one of them completed a successful sync, so it can't be a bad entry in the calendar or contacts. I also tried deleting CICAL entries for all of email addresses other than my primary one. No difference. Also, prior to setup and sync, I confirmed that my 9900 was not on wireless sync.
    I was hoping that this was an old issue and I could use one of the old work-arounds, so if anyone has any ideas for something else to try, please let me know.
    In the mean time, I  have to assume that it's something that's changed with Outlook 2013 (particularly given the new error message I reported above. I hope that someone at RIM is aware of these error messages and is working on a compatibility fix for Office 2013.
    Thanks in advance,
