Help with syncing blackberry pearl to Mac

Hi there,
hopefully a simple question. I have Pearl 8100 and can't figure out what to chose on the drop down menu when looking for syncing software for Mac.  There is a blackberry 8120 option but that doesn't seem right.  Can anyone advise?
Thanks

Which Blackberry syncing solution are you using? PocketMac, Blackberry or MarkSpace?
Have you tried contacting the technical support of the company who's product you're using? (iSync doesn't support Blackberry devices natively, so it's not really an Apple issue.)

  • Help with Syncing/Backup Apps from Mac to iTouch

    I've been predominately buying apps through the iTouch, but last night I decided to buy from my mac and have it sync over the apps. I bought 2 apps and then had itunes sync all my apps. I got a message that I had apps on my itouch that were not in my library, so I said "yes" to transfer them over. Of course this took like 2+ hours (I went to bed and came back in the morning). The troubling thing is that none of the apps that I purchased got transferred over. I then tried to sync specific apps, hoping that the sync time would be reduced, which it was, but again, the apps didn't get transferred over and the apps that I unchecked from syncing were still there. I did a shut down/reboot of the iTouch hoping that would help, but the old apps were still there and the new ones weren't.
    Any suggestions on what I can do next?

  • I got it. Syncing Blackberry Storm using Mac with Missing Sync

    I just bought my Storm Sat and have been trying to sync for days. I have a IBOOK G4 running the latest TIGER OS. I read all you guys post and I think it all helped a lot. Im a new BB user so it took me awhile to figure the phone. Ok, so anyway to the good stuff. As mentioned I followed some of the other threads, installing Pocket Mac and the updated driver. Uninstalling and re-installing. Taking the battery out and all that. None of that worked for me either like some of you. Keep getting the error message. So, I broke down and bought Missing Sync. Still wouldn't work. So, tonight I uninstalled PocketMac and deleted all files associated with off my Mac. Then I brought Missing Sync up on my Mac. On your Storm go to Options then Memory. Click on Mass Storage Mode Support select On. Then when you see Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode I selected Prompt or you could do Yes. Save Changes. Then go to Missing Sync just set what your preferences are for sync and click Sync. Boom- you are good to go. 
    This is what I did. It sync my Itunes and IPhoto and everything else. So, now Im at piece. Hope this will help someone. To everyone else thanks for your ideas cause it did help me with my dilemma, so I guess I will keep the Storm. 

    i managed to get both music and pictures onto my storm from my macbook, and from my storm to my macbook.
    i had to go into options on the storm, then memory, then to "prompt" for auto enable mass storage mode when connected.
    then i disconnected and re-connected the usb with pocketmac open on my macbook and it started synching. at first it synched everything BUT my music and photos. then i noticed when i plugged the usb back into my storm once more, two seperate blackberry harddrives appeared on my desktop, Blackberry1 and Blackberry2. I went into Blackberry1, then to the folder "home", then to the folder "user", then to the folders "music" and "photos" and just clicked and dragged music from my itunes library and photo library into those folders. then I tested it to make sure it worked. sounds great on the storm! it has to be done into the folders on Blackberry1 though, i tried it with Blackberry2 and even though it has the same folder names, when i tried to play the music i had dragged and dropped said it was an incompatible format. it's not the format, it's just the wrong drive.
    hope this helps someone out, it worked for me! 

  • Help with Sync Calendar with Outlook all appointments do not sync..

    I am not a super tech but I do have some pretty good skills for a girl, if i do say so myself.... however I am So frustrated.. I need help.
    This is my very first public post.. So I hope I give all the info that will help, but if I missed something, please let me know.
    Here is some background info:
    I have a BB Bold
    I do NOT use it on an enterprise (network) 
    I sync my bb with my dell 
    Windows Vista (UGH!!!)  
    Microsoft outlook - Version 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001
    My calendar and my contacts are the most important reason I have a bb
    My contacts are FINE
    My calendar is a MESS
    I have 2 separate email addresses working though my bb.. For the purposes of his post I will refer to them as  
    [email protected]  and  
    [email protected]  
    When I make appointments in my work calendar, I do one of the 2 things to get all my appointments on the BB
    Schedule my gmail address as an attendee to the appointment or
    Forward the appointment to my gmail address from my work email
    When I make appointments directly from my BB I do it by selecting Menu>New = my gmail account defaults as the "send using"
    BB Info:
    When I am in the calendar and I select >Menu.Options> Calendars> I have 3 options
    [email protected] which has (518 entries)
    Device Default  which has (157 entries)
    [email protected] which has (429 entries)
    When I go to Menu>Options>Advanced Options>Default Services>(CICAL) is [email protected]  it shows that I have the options to select my Gmail OR my .mac address
    Here is the problem - this did not used to happen, and I quite honestly didnt realize that my backup was messed up so i have NO idea how long this is going on.
    When I sync with Outlook
    There are only 518 appointments that are synced
    I cannot get the other 157 (device default) + 429 (mac) to sync with my outlook
    Can anyone help me get them all on my gmail calendar? or into my outlook so that I can then sync back with the BB 
    I do not sync my bb with my mac
    Here is what I have tired:
    Screaming at the computer
    Screaming in spanish at the blackberry
    ignoring them both
    I have restrained myself from throwing both of them against the wall.
    but seriously
    I have set the BB desktop manager to do a one way sync > bb to outlook = NOTHING Only the gmail syncs
    I have changed the (CICAL)  to my mac address and performed a sync = NOTHING - only the gmail syncs
    I am at a loss and would appreciate any help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    We shall then forget about the MAC records.
    Outlook contains the 158 records from the Gmail associated calendar.
    The default calendar records need to be cleared and restored to the Gmail associated Calendar.
    The resulting Blackberry gmail associated calendar will then be synchronized with Outlook to add the former default records
    resulting in synchronized calendars on both Outlook and the Blackberry.
    Read this over, I suggest more than once. Method three is what we are going to do.
    Let me know tomorrow what questions you have with the procedure so we can make sure we are successful.
    KB16063 Unexpected results occur when synchronizing with a BlackBerry smartphone that has multiple CICAL service records.
    Let me know how it goes!
    Thanks,

    Setup the Pearl's media card for mass storage.
    Create folders for music and vid.
    Attach the sync cable.
    In the finder you should see the Pearl as a "no name" mounted disk.
    Drag n drop what you want into the folders.
    There is no BT syncing for this.
    You could try this:

    Have you run Software Update in System Preferences on your new Mac?
    If so and no change and there is no change after re-starting your Mac, try downloading the iTunes install and reinstall it over the existing - no need to delete the existing iTunes app first.

    Once having this issue solved, I am still a little confused as to whether I can sync my contacts from my Windows Live email PC program.  It says it connects with Microsoft outlook, but with Windows 7 and wanting to access hotmail, the only email program that is compatible these days is WindowsLive mail program..  do you have any ideas or solutions of what program I could use that would be compatible with blackberry and my hotmail, my calendar and contacts?
    Only those Organizer apps listed in the prior linked KB are compatible. To synchronize with your BB, you must use one of those.
    Good luck!

  • Can anyone help with clearing space on my Mac Mini, it says the hard drive is full and runs slowly.

    Please help, we got the Mac Mini from a family member so it may have his stuff on it but no longer required, we have only put a smal amount of data on it so don't believe we have over filled it. I backed up to a hard drive all photos etc as I thought it may be them filling it, now I cannot even scan a document to it. Is there any way to Defrag it as you can normally do to a windows system as well as either declutter it or restore the whole thing.
    Best Regards
    Smithy

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1. You don't own another Mac.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    2. You do own another Mac.
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.

  • Help with installing CS3 on new Mac

    Recently purchased new Macs for the department. Cannot install CS3! It asks for the CS2 license number which we have. Turns out it doesn't recognize it. Called customer support and everyone had the same answer, but no solution. I purchased the CS2 corporate license when we had about 6 Macs. Now, we're down to 3 so I purchased the CS3 as individual suites. They said there is no workaround with getting CS3 to recognize the CS2 license! We called 4 different times and talked to 4 different reps who gave us all the same broken-record response. Any help with be greatly appreciated!

    I believe that is essential what the customer service folks were telling my designer. However, both was installed before on the old Macs (CS2 corporate licensed and CS3 individual license) - that's the odd thing, is that it worked before on an older system. All we did was buy new hardware.
    I hope this isn't Adobe's way of making us upgrade to CS4 - lol!

  • Help with syncing my iCloud calendars

    I have never had a problem with syncing my calendars on iCloud with my laptop, desktop, iPhone and iPad. Recently I have had trouble with things I was putting on my iPhone were not syncing to my iPad. I read through a lot of the tips on here and have tried almost everything. I have removed the calendars and then set up my iCloud account again. I have refreshed numerous times. Nothing seems to work.
    Last night I took all of the iCloud accounts off all devices. I mades sure that when I accessed iCloud via the internet that all my calendars were correct. They were.
    This morning I added the iCloud acccount back to my iPhone and my iPad. All off the calendars from iCloud synced to these devices minus my personal calendar that is on iCloud. It is just one of the names that I have given my color coded calendar. Nothing is different with this calendar than with the other five color coded calendars that I have.
    Does anyone have an idea why this one will not sync? Or suggestions on what I might do or try.
    Thank you!

    I have the same problem, I tried the solution of Dr Cox but that didn't work as he said go to system preference then mail, contacts etc. but I don't have that.  Can someone help?

    I do have a sony 7. reciever str de-995 its an older one but its only for my cpu. At first i didnt even have THX installed because it didnt come with the driver package for some reason until i downloaded the daniel_k support drivers and installed it. But it doesnt help in anyway.
    I have checked every where regarding the first question and alot of people are having problems getting sound out of there rear channels and the sound being re-mapped to the surround right and the surround left as if there rear left and rear right.
    I read somewhere that the daniel_k support drivers would fix this but it didnt for me and many others.
    For the second question i assumed it would be becasue of the spidf pass through and that my onboard sound card was inferior to the xfi titaniums. But i wasnt sure and i was hopeing that someone would have a solution for that problem because i miss controlling the volume with my keyboard.

At some angles, it almost looks like a rainbow! 02 said to take it to a store but i was wondering if anyone knew any quick fixes?  Its still working fine by the way i just cant really see anything!

    Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
    A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
    Let us know what the screen is like after.
