Do not want blackberry desktop manager to start when turning on computer

I installed Blackberry Desktop manager and I cannot force quit. I shut down my Mac and it comes back and cannot close it or force quit.

Does this help? i don't know macs well, but looked around:

Blackberry Desktop Manager wont start

I am SOOOO frustrated.
I have installed the BB Desktop Manager software (never installed or used it before) and it has downloaded fine but it just wont open!! No errors, just nothing. Am getting really frustrated.
Any ideas?

I am not sure I understand - are these instructions you have seen/been given?
What is the context for your post? I have an issue with DM 6.02 and Windows 7 which is that DM just won't start, the only workaround I have found is to downgrade to 5.0.1 which is not ideal but does seem to work. It worked fine on XP but when I switched to Windows 7 it installed fine but then would not start up.

Printer app starts when turning on computer.

Hi, this isn't a big deal, just an annoying one.
My printer software starts up when I turn on my computer. It didn't do that before. It just takes longer for my computer to start up.
This is happening on my PM G5. The printer is a photosmart C7180 AIO.
Thanks everyone!

Yes. It will open on demand, and close when the print job is done, assuming you do not bring it to the foreground. If you do bring it to the foreground, you can simply quit when the printing is complete.

How do I change settings so Blackberry desktop manager doesn't open when I start my computer??

I want the desktop manager to open when I ask it to, or else to open automatically when I connect my phone to the computer by USB. Currently, it opens when I start my computer. I would greatly appreciate any help with this.

Did you install the software from a CD or download it?
If from the CD, put it back in your drive. When the wizard appears choose the Modify option. Select the BlackBerry Desktop Manager from the 3 choices listed and hit Next. Your going to reselect the same options as you did when you first installed the software, but stop and the last step where you have the 2 checkboxes. You want to uncheck the top one that talks about starting the software when the computer starts
If you just downloaded the software go into Add/Remove Programs, select the BlackBerry Desktop Manager and hit the Change/Remove button. Then just follow the steps above.
Hope this helps

Blackberry Desktop Manager for Mac does not recognize any Calendars for syncing

ive installed the blackberry desktop manager for my Macbook and hooked my phone up through the USB port when I started the program and when I go to the calendar section it says "There are no calendars available on this computer for syncing. Please launch a new iCal and create a new calendar". How do I fix this? I have a lot of information on my iCal that I want transferred over to my phone, but it won't recognize the calendar in the program. Help

I'll try to help...first you did not provide any pertinent information for troubleshooting: Mac OS, device, device OS...
Now before you do anything go to iCal>File>Export and create an iCal archive (JIC). The rest is dependent on the OS (as each store iCal data differently)...It is possible that your calendar file is not where it should be. Try cleaning system and user cache. Restarting your mac and repair permissions.
On the device side, what do you have as the default CICAL? You could try forget device in the DM or trash the user>username>application support>BlackBerryDesktop folder and start over.
Now do you have more than one calendar? In the DM how are you setting the sync? Two Way, All Calendars...to what calendar are you adding on the device? Under Advanced Settings are you selecting All events and are you Replacing all calendar events on the Blackberry device? Remember that even if you have multiple calendars in iCal they will sync as one in the BlackBerry.

Blackberry Desktop Manager does not show Media Manager

First, let me say I am a NEW Blackberry user, my hubby and I both got new Blackberry Curves 8310 recently.
   When I installed the disc that came with the phone, the Blackberry Desktop Manager does not have the "Media Manager" as one of the choices, as was shown on all of the booklets and tutorials. I even re-installed the program, thinking maybe it didn't download completely the first time, but it still comes up showing only these 4:
         Synchronize, Backup & Restore, Application Loader, and Switch Device Wizard.......
All of the directions I've received show that I can easily add pictures and music simply by clicking on Media Manager, but it just isn't there.
Here is info about the installation disk that we received with our phones, supposedly the correct and latest versions . . ..
Blackberry Desktop Manager
version 4.3.0.17 (Nov.12 2007)
Device Communications      Blackberry Device mgr....4.3.0.7
                                         BBDevMgr   ................4.0.0.1
                                         RIM USB Driver.............4.0.0.2

                                     RIMProgram .....................1.0.0.35
Seriously, none of these really means a whole lot to me, I just want to click on something and have it work . . . I did try to "upgrade" to a newer version, and I got the message that the version I had was the newer one, so now what?
I have memory cards inserted in the phone(s).
I will appreciate any help with this, I'm really frustrated. I figured out how to move files manually, but I don't understand why it isn't showing up as illustrated in the instruction manuals and online tutorials.
Solved!

Lost my Blackberry and want to access data in Blackberry Desktop Manager

I lost my Blackberry. I have data backed up in Blackberry Desktop Manager but not in Outlook, Google Mail or any other application. Can I get the data out of Desktop Manager and into one of these other applications without having my old (or a new) Blackberry?

Error when updating Playbook OS version via Blackberry Desktop Manager

Greeting,
I have a batch of old playbooks which having the stack charging issue, but I found that I can update the OS to the newest version (2.1.0.1917) via Blackberry Desktop Manager, then the charging algorithm will be changed to the updated one and go over this dead battery issue. I was able to do so successfully in the past week smoothly on several devices.
But since this Monday, the Desktop Manager is saying "An updated Blackberry Desktop Software component must be installed before you can continue" when downloading the Desktop software and will appear "There was an error updating your software, an error has occurred while downloading the Blackberry Desktop Software.Please try again." and preventing the process. Seems there are some change on the server side starting this week which has caused this problem, but there's no error code to locate the exact issue.
I tried on 2 different computers as well as completed uninstalling and re-installing the Desktop manager, also tried to disable the automatic update as been advised in some threads. So no clue how to deal with it for now. It will be highly appreciate if some one can share some idea.
I've attached the step by step screenshots for reference, where you can find here:

Sorry I can not help you with your problem but perhaps you can help me.
Can you advise where I can find info on "disable the automatic update"?
just ignore the update if you dont want it on the playbook
for reloading the OS
First I would like you to do a Back Up of your PlayBook using your computer and BlackBerry Desktop Software.
This can be downloaded for free from http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/
After the Back Up is complete I need you to unplug your PlayBook and then push and hold down the Power Button until the unit Force Powers Off.
Now, while Desktop Software is still open on your computer and the PlayBook Powered Off, Connect the PlayBook to your computer.
You should see and error screen from Desktop Software pop up that has the options to Retry, Update, or Cancel.
QUICKLY choose the Update option.
This will erase all the information off of your PlayBook and Re-Write the Software back onto it. Once it's complete your PlayBook will need to go back through the setup wizard, and you can then perform a restore using Desktop Software to return your information. The only thing that won't come back after the restore are the apps that you downloaded from App World but they can be easily Re-Installed using the My World feature in App World.
Click here to Backup the data on your BlackBerry Device! It's important, and FREE!

BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac won't remember my sync preferences

Each time I close BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac I and reopen it, I have to set all of my preferences for syncing my Calendar and Contacts again. The software remembers my selections as long as I don't quit the application, but once I quit it and reopen it they are gone.
I have tried deleting the plist files, uninstalling and reinstalling the software, but nothing fixes this issue.
This is happening on both of my MacBook Pros and with both of my BlackBerry devices.
Both MacBook Pros are running 10.6.1 and I have a BlackBerry Tour running 4.7.1.40 and a BlackBerry Curve 8330m running 4.5.0.138.

despite posts to the contrary there is a big compatibility problem with Apple LION and Blackberry Desktop manager.
BB are pretending that the problemdoes not exist, but just look over all the boards here and elsewhere.
Come on BLACKBERRY - sort it out
YOUR SHARE PRICE AND SALES DATA ARE TELLING YOU THAT CUSTOMERS ARE VOTING WITH THEIR FEET. I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE BB AS I USE THEM FOR MY BUSINESS.

Blackberry Desktop Manager for 8320 - OS 4.5.0.124

hey guys...please help me..i'm trying to download blackberry desktop manager for my 8320 for os 4.5.0.124 but just confuse which version to download..?? I forgot what i had the last time. thanks!!
MHOESAIN

Hi there!
The device and DTM versions are independent...you can run an OS version that is older than your DTM version. For me, I'd probably not want to run an older DTM version than my OS version, but I've not read that such is a problem, it's just my personal theory.
What you definitely should do is check which version of DTM you need by virtue of how you sync -- if you tether and sync to a PIM, choose a DTM version that supports your PIM -- see this matrix:
KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
Me, I'd select the latest DTM version that supports my PIM. If you don't tether-sync, then the PIM compatibility is irrelevant...so choose DTM 5.0.
Next, be sure and DL and install (to your PC) your carriers device OS package atop of DTM so that, when you tether, DTM knows what it needs to know about your BB on your carrier and can present you with appropriate things. You can get your carriers OS DL package via this portal:

Hope that helps! Let us know!

Cannot completely uninstall BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.6

Whenever I try to uninstall the BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.6,
I get window that is looking for the BlackBerry Desktop Messenger.msi file in c:\Temp\<something>
I downloaded the latest 4.6 from the BlackBerry website, unzipped it and then point to the msi in there.
I get a message that says this is not the correct msi file for this application.
The latest version is B027 and I might have installed an earlier version.
Any thoughts on how to get this completely uninstalled.
Reason is I cannot install 4.6 or 4.7 because it first wants to complete the uninstall.
Further I cannot download the Webex client as it also is looking for this uninstall to complete.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
It sounds like you've got some real PC-level problems there...with all that you've done, I honestly don't know what to advise you at this internet-distance. I do know that, in the past, others have gotten into the same situation you are in and have would up totally reloading their PC OS from scratch in order to clean things up. I hope you don't have to go to that extent. But, several of your statements cause me to have questions...

You can or cannot do the uninstall from the Control Panel? I cannot tell from what you've said. The clean uninstall is documented in the prior-linked KB.

Yup...you've created quite a problem there...you might try re-installing the software, in repair mode (if such is offered), and then perhaps you'll be able to uninstall.
prabhakarvkp wrote:

Again, is it or is it not showing in add/remove programs? I cannot tell from what you've said...

Outlook 2010 Technical Preview and Blackberry Desktop Manager

Hi There, This is my first post in this forum, requesting you to kindly help as I am really stuck. Coming back to the issue, I have recently installed the MS Office 2010 Technical Preview and am very much enjoying the same. However, I failed to make my Blackberry Desktop Manager 5 work with it, so am unable to sync my BB now Please help. Regards,

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Because you're using software that is not yet official, its in your own hands. I'm pretty sure that the Desktop Manager software is not yet compatible with Office 2010 as it's not yet an official release. Unfortunately this is the catch with using beta software or technical previews. Software developers must rewrite their software to ensure it is compatible with that software and because there can often be changes between the beta or technical preview and the final version, many software developers prefer to wait until the official version is out before releasing their own fully compatible program.
At this point, you have two options as I see it:
Downgrade from the Office 2010 Technical Preview to a compatible version of Microsoft Office.
Don't sync with Microsoft Outlook until a compatibleupgrade of Desktop Manager is released.
