Blackberry sync with BB Manager / GW 8.01

I am syncing my calendar with my GroupWise calendar through the Desktop manager software and the usb connection. I totally wiped my curve back to factory defaults and every time I sync my calendar the reminder time is always at 500 minutes or longer.
any ideas?
using GW 8.01 / BB OS 4.5x / BB Manager 5.01
thanks

This seems to be a problem that my users are experiencing as well. Here are three excerpts from Blackberry forum support thread describing the problem in detail and Blackberry's general attitude toward it. Some users on that thread also report this problem with GW7. A fix would be appreciated.
Sync With Groupwise 8 CalanderOptions
Mark as New
03-31-2009 11:50 AM
I recently updated from Groupwise 7 to Groupwise 8. I'm now having a problem when I sync my calander. The reminder time is being transfered from Groupwise as a time. It then gets entered in my device calander as minutes. So, if I have an apointment at 7:00 and set the reminder to 5 min before in Groupwise, and sync the device, the reminder time is set to 655 minutes before the event on the device. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi there,
I did some research and it appears GroupWise client 8 is not a supported version with BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.7. I have attached a link below which should direct you to the release notes.
BlackBerry Technical Solution Center...
Please let me know if there are any problems with the link.
(Ed: Link does not work, reported as such in thread, no follow-up from Tech.)

Hello, We have the same issue at my office: Blackberry Bold 9700 and Blackberry Tour 9630 (current Blackberry updates) Blackberry Desktop Manager 5.0.1.28 (Nov 11, 09) GroupWise 8 SP1 Same issues as original post, " I'm now having a problem when I sync my calander. The reminder time is being transfered from Groupwise as a time. It then gets entered in my device calander as minutes. So, if I have an apointment at 7:00 and set the reminder to 5 min before in Groupwise, and sync the device, the reminder time is set to 655 minutes before the event on the device" Time zone is PST and both workstation and device has the correct time zone/time. Not sure if this is a Blackberry issue with the way "remainder time" is converted or if it is a GroupWise issue. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
Original poster reinstalled GW7 to solve problem.

  • First sync with desktop manager for mac: only 300 contacts synced instead of the 1100

    I have a Curve 8310. version 4
     I have a brand new mac with NO CONTACTS or calendar.
     I have preciously very successfully synced with my windows computer for 2 years.
    I have just tried for the first time to sync with desktop manager,.only 315 contacts synced of the 1100.
    The apple  people recommend using Mark/Space" missing Sync" but I am reluctant to do this as the reviews are mixed.
    Help?

    Hi there.
    Have been using my BB Pearl 8100 on and off since Oct 08.
    I have successfully synced with a Vaio (XP Pro) using BBDM (up to version 4.6) as well as iMac OS 10.5.8 using PocketMac for BB v4.1 and now BBDM for Mac. Have synced with iCal, Mail, Contacts (albeit 647)
    PocketMac can be a little temperamental, but not that much of a prob as when i downloaded it was free (shareware) and the only alternative was Missing Sync.

  • Will a Palm Centro or Blackberry sync with iCal?

    Will a Palm Centro or Blackberry sync with iCal?

    Greetings,
    Yes on both but you would need software to do the sync for you.
    If you are running Mac OS X 10.6.x, Palm is no longer updating their sync software (http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/na/centro/centro/unlocked/solutions/article/332 19_en.html).  You would need a sync solution like: http://www.markspace.com/
    Blackberry has their own sync software which you can get from them.
    Cheers!

  • Outlook 2003 won't sync with Desktop Manager 5.0

    I've just purchased a Blackberry 8900 and have installed Desktop Manager 5.0 on my PC.  I can't get my BB to sync with Outlook 2003.  When I try to configure the Synchronization settings, I select the Device application and click on Calendar.  It then asks which applicaton I want to sync with and I select Microsoft Outlook.  Next I'm selecting two way sync (although I've tried both of the one ways syncs as well and I receive the same message).  I then click on transfer only future items.  Then I get a Runtime Error:  Option's value is unacceptable.  Please check option properties.  I've tried uninstalling Desktop Manager and reinstalling it---both from the CD that was provided and also from the BB website.  Any ideas on what I can do to get the sync to work?

  • BB 8330 Curve will not sync with Desktop Manager (Media Portion)

    The BB Desktop Manager software will not let me use the Media portion of the software.  I have enabled the media card option on my BB and I have also enabled "Mass Storage" on my phone.  Why can't I get my BB to sync with the software?

    Hi ripkin1981,
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    What version of BlackBerry Desktop Manager are you using? What happens when you try to sync media? Do you receive an error message?

  • Can a Blackberry sync with Eudora 7?

    I'm thinking of getting a Blackberry Curve.  Would the Desktop manager app be able to sync up the Curve with my Eudora email app?
    TIA. 

    "Sync"?  An iPad syncs with iTunes, not with an iPhone.
    You can set up an iPad Air using a backup from your iPhone which has an older iOS.  Perhaps that is what you are asking.

    Hi,
    re-check if the 7.4 system is correctly registered in the solman SLD system.
    Re-check LMDB definition for your 7.4 as JAVA system. you have to manually created the Product system. Ensure all the Component and definitions are correct.
    Also do a verrification run within the LMDB. This will confirm whether all the information is correctly defined.
    Please note - SLD -> LMDB -> SMSY.
    So, if the first 2 don't have the correct information, you wont have much joy with smsy.

  • Vista OP--Curve 8330---no sync with desktop manager---please help

    I have tried the following versions of desktop manager, 4.3 from disk and download, 4.5, and 4.7.  Each new version was tried after clean reinstall.  Vista OP.  I click the sync configure.  I get the select a devise application window.  I click on any one of the choices, and get the following choices:
    <None>
    ASCII importer/exporter
    yahoo
    THERE IS NO OPTION FOR VISTA
    I have read many suggestions on this message community which basically say try a different version.  THAT DOESN'T WORK. Is there anything else anyone has tried that works with Windows Vista?

    Desktop Manager does not recognize any bluetooth drivers (stacks) other than the basic Windows Bluetooth Stack.  If you have another bluetooth stack in use, you'll need to remove it and let Windows install the basic bluetooth stack.  The downside of this is that you loose some of the advanced features that your current bluetooth stack gives...extra speed, etc.  However, that's the only way to make bluetooth work with Desktop manager.

  • Deleting past calendar events on sync with desktop manager for mac? How to proceed

    I am new to Blackberry desktop manager for mac.  It is all set up and first sync is done without a problem.  Now when I try to sync, I get a message that over 600 of my past calendar items will be deleted if I continue with sync.  I need to keep previous calendar items, is there a way to solve this problem and not delete past events?  I am sorry for asking this question, I am just new and very unsure of what I am doing.  I had used missing sync before, but when my blackberry had to be replaced, new blackberry wouldn't work so I wanted to try desktop manager.  HELP!  Thanks!

    I am having the same problem. checked space, had to delete 2 apps. was set to forever, just changed to from 30 days in past to 18 months in future hoping it would make a difference on sync. Still trying to delete 1256 events.

  • Blackberry sync with office for mac 2011

    I just received this reply from Mac Topia forum:   "For Office 2011 we’re using Apple’s standard sync protocol, Sync Services, to enable synchronization with a variety of devices and applications, and third-party vendors provide plug-ins to enable Sync Services for devices like the Blackberry"
    Is there a plug in as they suggest above?

    You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type:  ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

  • Blackberry sync with pocketmac

    pocketmac does not work with the intel macs. They claim there is a mistake in Apple's programing in regards to the USB. Everything else I have on USB works fine on the intel imac. Does anyone know of a problem with the USB, or is this just a universal issue that pocketmac is trying to fully blame on Apple?

    Melanie,
    On March 23rd, then this thread was created, there was no universal version of Pocketmac available.
    Now there is.
    Also, no Blackberry will sync via Bluetooth on the Mac. This isn't a limitiation of Pocketmac, or Apple. It's a limitation of the Blackberry itself. RIM has disabled the bluetooth serial profiles which would be necessary for any data transfer via Bluetooth.
    Bluetooth sync currently only works with Blackberry devices on Windows, with a very specific software setup.

  • Caller ID Photo Low Res Sync with Desktop Manager for Mac 1.01

    Hi,
    All high res ID photo's set in a contact in Address book only sync low res to the BB. Once you then to a 2-way sync the ID photo in Address book also becomes low res. 
    When will this bug be fixed and anyone having same issue?
    Thanks
    Andre

    Having problems getting Blackberry Desktop for Mac installed. Had Missing Sync, but was causing duplicates. Trying to move to BDM.  Followed the directions, but MS did not uninstall completely.  Ran it several times.  
    Found also it was running DisplayLinkDriver.kext from the trash pile (on emptying trash, it would not erase, as it was being used).  Use external monitor with mac. Will try uninstalling BDM (again) emptying trash, and restarting with no external monitor.  Does seem like there is a bug here.

  • Device time moves back 1 hour every time I sync with Desktop Manager

    Every time that I sync my device using Desktop Manager the time of day on the device moves back one hour. Both my PC and my BB device are set to Central US time, so I can think of no reason why this occurs.
    Ideas?

    If you can't resolve the DST on your computer you can also change the sync settings to not update your clock.
