Can't get Curve and outlook to Sync

I purchased a used BB and want to sync it with my comuter, but I can't seem to get it to sync - something about not identifying the BB device name.  I'm thinking I should do a hard reset like with a Treo.  Is there such a thing? Any advice? Thank you.

you should have no problem syncing to outlook. Do you have the Desktop manager software? if not, you should download and install, that will give you the ability to choose what PIM application to use for syncing

  • Can't get entourage and ical to sync

    Hi,
    I've had a macbook for a while but got an iphone 3gs last week and I'm just trying to set it up. My addresses and contacts seem to be syncing to my iphone OK but not my entourage 2004 calendar. I have gone into entourage preferences and ticked all the synch boxes and when I open ical I have an entourage calendar but none of my appointments are on there (the only thing that is are public holidays and birthdays?).
    When I tried to sync entourage with ical he just hung so I thought this may be due to number of entourage calendar entries. So I went onto entourage and changed it so that anything over 12 months old is deleted but now I have checked and I still have all my calendar entries on entourage from 2005 so that hasn't worked. How can I delete the old calendar entries?
    So as I understand it in order for my calendar to be synced on my iphone it has to go through ical (even though I don't use that on my Macbook). As I can't get entourage to sync my calendar with ical I can't get my calendar onto my iphone at present which is a real pain.
    Would I be better looking at mobileme or something similar or do I just need to setup entourage and ical differently?
    As you can see I really need some help! All advice very gratefully received.
    Cheers

    BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING - BACK UP ALL YOUR DATA IN ENTOURAGE.
    You can delete everything in iCal by deleting the calendar (Entourage or Personal or temp or whatever Calendar is there). You can delete everything in Address book either by highlighting all the contacts and hitting delete or by deleting the Address Book folder in Address Book.
    The key in getting them to sync properly with Entourage is deleting all the preferences in your Library folder under <your user>. Delete anything with Microsoft Entourage in it. I also deleted iCal preferences and Address Book Preferences.
    I also found it necessary to go to the Office folder and delete the sync services folder.
    Also go to Entourage sync services and turn OFF syncing with iCal and Address Book. Exit Entourage.
    Go to your application folder, isync - reset sync history (button at bottom of screen).
    Then bring up Entourage, sync services, and reactivate syncing with iCal and Address Book.
    Everything should work. I have been struggling with this the last week or two. I've had innumerable exchanges with MS who have said anything with syncing is not their problem it's an apple application. Through these discussion boards I pieced together all of the elements above. But be sure to back up anything you want to keep before you do any of this.
    It should work. It did for me (at least last night and all day today). Good luck.

  • TS4002 iCloud for email is not on my Mac. How can I get email and iCal to sync with iphone and ipad.

    iCloud for email is not on my Mac. It should be under Internet and wireless in System Preferences but it is not. Basically I am trying to get iCloud running successfully on my Mac for email and Calendar so that it will sync with my iPad and iPhone. I was an MobilMe customer and I've been having trouble with this conversion to iCloud. Thanks.

    I too was a mobileme user and have just migrated to iCloud on mackbook pro w/OS 10.7.4. Transition caused my sent mailboxes to rearrange themselves so that I have no comprehensive 'sent' mailbox as I did previously and the view on both incoming and outgoing mailboxes keeps rearranging itself no matter how many times I set preferences. One result is that search function no longer works.  Is anyone else having problems like this?  All was fine for a week after transition but after having an evening when my password was repeatedly rejected I had to log in and out of iCloud (as directed by tech support) and w/in an hour or so the mailbox problem began.

  • Can't get brushes and swatches to sync, only settings/workspaces.  (Win7 and Win8.1, latest photoshop)

    I have Photoshop CC 2014 installed and updated on a Win7 machine and a Win8.1 machine.  When I go to edit>preferences>sync settings, everything is checked, but it seems that only my workspace settings get uploaded.  It never seems to transfer my swatches or brushes.  They are stored in the default location and show up in the brush and swatch menus.

    Do they play in iTunes?

  • I can't get MacFreelance and GoFreelance to Sync

    I have a MacBook Pro running 10.7.4 and an iPhone running 5.1.1
    I have version 3.13 of MacFreelance on my Mac and 1.02 of GoFreelance on my iPhone.
    According to support Article 102 from the summitsoft web site I should be able to pair both devices via WiFi and Sync the databases between both. However, following the instructions outlined has not ended with the desired results. Does anybody have an answer to this? Perhaps I should consider other software to accomplish the tasks I wish? If sof so, what to use?

    Have you contacted the people who make these two apps for assistance? They would be the best people to advise on the usage of their own apps.

  • After reinstallation of Outlook 2010 on my Laptop, Contacts and Calendar did not appeared while they are exist in my iphone 5 by using icloud. What I should do to get Contacts and Calendars in sync with iphone 5? Thank you.

    Thank you.

    So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
    As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

  • I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get new computer.  My library is still there and the playlists show and I can even add to my playlists. But as soon as it goes to sync it says it can't find all the songs that used to be there.

    I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get a new computer.  They all appear in my library and show in my playlists.  I can even download new songs from the itunes store to those playlists but when it syncs only the new songs go on the ipod.  It says it can't find any of my "old" songs and puts an exclamation mark beside them.  I am clueless when it comes to these things.  Advice please!  We have three ipods on this account trying to figure it out.

    You can only sync to one computer.
    You would have to transfer purchases, but the apple ID would need to be the same.
    Or find a 3rd party app to transfer content.

  • I have just bought four songs from iTunes store using my iMac. I can play the music on my iMac and throughout my Apple TV. However after several restarts and double checks I can't get the four tunes to sync with either my iPhone or my iPad.

    I have just bought four songs from iTunes store using my iMac. I can play the music on my iMac and throughout my Apple TV. However after several restarts and double checks I can't get the four tunes to sync with either my iPhone or my iPad. All the software is up to date.

    do you use the same Apple ID on your iMac, your iPhone and iPad? This is a requirement.

    You can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. To switch:

  • Can't get iCal and Address Book to sync properly

    I recently upgraded to Office 2008. Since then, I can't get iCal and Address book to sync properly with Entourage 2008 (I did set all three sync criteria in Entourage preferences). None of Entourage's events go into iCal (iCal is blank) and the Address Book has 10 times as many names as Entourage. Everything in Entourage 2008 is correct and everything in iCal and Address Book is essentially wrong.
    Is there some way for me to erase everything in Address Book and iCal and start the sync between them and Entourage from scratch? Ultimately, I am trying to get Entourage to sync with my new Blackberry, which it does through iCal and Address Book using Missing Sync. I can't make this happen until information is flowing properly from Entourage to iCal and Address Book.
    Thank you!

  • I can not get iPhone and iPad calendar to sync.  Help

    Help. I can not get iPad and iPhone calendar to sync

    Please also check, if the appointments you already have entered on one device are stored in a iCloud calendar or only local or in another account. Therefor just open the calendar app, then open an existing appointment, click on "Calendar" and then check, if it is really an iCloud calendar where the appointment is stored.

  • Getting email and calender to sync to iMac like it does with iPad and iPhone

    Ok here is the problem we currently have a bigpond email account (Australia) and also use calendar associated with that email address and this has been working fine for well over 14 months. Earlier this year we got a iphone 5 and also set up the email and calendar on that device so that the 2 devices synched and they do no problems. The 2 devices are logged into iCloud.
    Note both devices required the setting up of email using the Hotmail option to take advantage of the new infrastructure Bigpond have with Microsoft Live.
    About a month ago we replaced our old PC with a new iMac. When setting up the iMac we have set up the bigpond email and also logged that iMac into icloud using the same ID as the other two devices. When setting up the email it was noticably different in that the hotmail option to set up the account didnt exist but anyway I got the email account set up regardless and emails are working. Calender entries on the other hand are not. I dont seem to be able to get the calendar entries that synch across iPad and iPhone to sync with the iMac.
    We cannot also get folders within email to sych across the devices either. I believe that this has something to do with POP vs IMAP ????.
    I really would like to get email and calendar to sync across all 3 devices using the bigpond email address.
    I spoke with Apple without much luck as they seemed to believe that bigpond email is using POP and thus cant synch folders across devices and couldnt help me with the calendar not synching across the devices.
    Can anyone help me ? Point me in the direction of useful links ?

    Re Outlook for Mac - can anyone confirm that this will acheive my aims to have emails and associated folders within email to synch across all devices and that calender will also sycn across all devices using iCloud ?

  • How can I get my Exchange contacts to sync over to iCloud?

    How can I get my Exchange contacts to sync over to iCloud?
    If I delete my Exchange account, my contacts get removed as well.
    My Exchange account is my default.
    I've also installed the iCloud app on my Windows machine running W8 and Outlook 2013 where my Exchange account runs on.

    You would have to export your contacts from Exchange and import them into iCloud somehow. I have to admit I don't know of an easy way to do this but maybe one of the other volunteers here will know how to do it.
