How to uninstall the BlackBerry desktop manager

Hello everyone,
Roxio Media manager keeps on installing itself.  I read on this forum that I have uninstall the BB desktop manager, and install it again to solve the issues.  WINDOWS CAN NOT DELETE IT. When I delete the BlackBerry desktop manager, it just tries to install itself again. In the mean time Roxio Media manager keeps on trying to install itself.  DOES RIM HAS UNSTALLATION PROGRAM FOR THE BB DESKTOP MANAGER?  I would appreciate any help.

  • Is it possible to see my phone numbers and addresses that I backed up in the blackberry desktop manager

    I know it may be a silly question -- but I finally was able to download the blackberry desktop manager and then back up all the data from my blackberry to my computer via the desktop manager.  For my peace of mind, I would like to see some of this data (addresses and phone numbers) just to insure that I did the back up correctly.  Is this possible?
    Solved!

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    The file that contains the backup data is designed as proprietery to the Backup/Restore process. It is not designed to be read independently. There are some third party readers, can't recall the names (Amber-something-or-other?), but if you search for an application that can read an IPD file, you might find what you are looking for.
    Good luck!

  • How well does the Blackberry desktop software work on a Mac

    I have friend who syncs his BB 8830 a lot on his current PC. He his considering a switch to a Mac and wanted to know how well the BB desktop software works on a Mac. How would you answer that question?
    Will the BB desktop software sync calendars and contacts best with the Mac Mail and Address Book or does it work better with MS Office 2011?
    Thank you for looking.

    this is misleading (a lie) as bb desktop software does not work with Apple LION

  • Error message KB19454 in the BlackBerry Desktop Manager Knowledge Base.

    Please somebody help me!! I have been trying for the past 3 hours to sync my address book with my mac. All I want to do is save my contact information so I can then sync them with my new apple iPhone 4 as I am getting rid of this annoying blackberry curve!!
    My calendar sync worked without problem but I am going crazy with this error message.
    Please someone help me!!!

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    For your first issue, I cannot tell if you've yet worked through the referenced KB...if not, you can find it here.
    For your second issue, I'm unsure...but perhaps this will help:
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Best!

  • 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.

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

  • 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)

    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.

  • Installing Blackberry Desktop Manager Software

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install the Blackberry Desktop Manager 4.0 Sp1 software
    onto a few PC's.
    Once I've customised the setup.ini file and run "setup.exe /s" from the
    local drive (or network drive), the program setup installs the software
    correctly.
    However, when creating a Zen App object and inserting the following in
    the "Run Options" tab, all I get is the MSIEXEC options screen (same as
    running msiexec.exe /?)
    Path to File:
    C:\Setup\Blackberry_Desktop_4-0_Sp1\Blackberry_DM_4.0Sp1.exe /s
    Working Directory: C:\Setup\Blackberry_Desktop_4-0_Sp1\
    Any idea why the setup works when executing from Windows Explorer, but
    fails when executing from Zen App objects?
    Thanks for the input...

    Hi Anders,
    Thanks for the reply.
    Yes, I definitely selected the option "A Simple Application (No
    ..AOT/.AXT.MSI file)"
    It's worth mentioning that the setup.exe file calls an MSI file called
    "BlackBerry Desktop Software.msi".
    That appears to be done via the setup.ini file. See below.

Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.

  • 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:

    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.
