Showing BB Desktop on Computer

I'm a new BB user and am having a problem showing my addresses and calendar on the computer.  I'm used to the Palm Treo and am lost without the use of my computer for appt's, etc.  I've installed the discs but cannot get anything to open up.  Help, please.  Thanks in advance.  (This is an 8703e)

The Desktop Manager application that comes with the BlackBerry is not like the Palm Desktop, where you enter information directly in to the application. The Desktop Manager has a synchronize module that allows you to synch information with an organizer like Microsoft Outlook. So you would need to manage your information in the organizer (like Outlook) and then use the Desktop Manager Synchronization module to synchronize data between the BlackBerry and the organizer.

  • "Folders" tab only showing Desktop & My Computer

    The "Folders" tab does not work properly. For some reason when an image is opened over a network server environment, only "Desktop" & "My Computer" show. The directory never shows up, however the contents show in the "Content" tab.
    In some cases the user can drag a folder containing content onto the Bridge CS4 icon and it will work, but as soon as the app is closed the problem persists.This is causing a ridiculous amount of extra navigation and workflow alteration to do a repetitive process that happens hundreds of times a day during our slow periods and thousands during peak times.
    The user must iterate from page to page within a given directory to preview documents and images, and enhance or make changes required. A directory that contains 100 folders can take 100 navigation cycles to drop from "Windows Explorer" or "Finder" on the Mac. We need the directory to register in Bridge so the user can propagate from folder to folder once one picture is opened in Bridge.
    When working on the local computer drives or through "mapped" drives on the network, the problem seems less pervasive, though still there.
    Anyone help with this glitch?
    Thanks

    yes, I dony know what else to do?
    thanks

  • Now External Firewire doesn't show on desktop...even on another computer.

    This is a continuation of the problem of the disappearing internal hard drives topic but it's taken on a whole new dimension. I have restored two of the three internal volumes affected and they show up. So I thought maybe now I can use the command-, option on the finder to make the third volume appear. Under "show these items on desktop" I checked the box next to "hard disks" off and then back on. I didn't touch the box next to "external drives" but the EXTERNAL firewire drive disappeared from the desktop. Two of the three internal volumes still showed on desktop. The external firewire shows in Disk Utility but nowhere else. I disconnected the firewire drive and connected it to a laptop. It doesn't show on the desktop there either, but it does show in disk utility. Obviously my computer must be doing something to the drives to make them not appear no matter where they're connected. I'm desperate now.

    Did you try mounting it in Disk Utility?

  • I purchased tones on my ipad, but they don't show up on my computer or iphone

    Being that Apple doesn't allow my ringtones from my 5 to transfer to my new 6, I had to purchase new tones, from itunes. Well, I purchased the tones from my ipad, but now they won't show up on my computer, or my iphone 6. I set all of the machines up to sync wireless, and to share as well, but have had no luck. I am almost inclined to return this **** phone; can anyone please help?  Thanks

    I connected the ipad to the computer, but it is not the computer assigned to the phone (we have two different desktops). The older computer is where the ipad gets synced, and the new computer is where the iphone gets synced.
    Is there a way to get the tones transferred to the new computer?

  • IPod doesn't show up in My Computer/iTunes

    I tried the Driver thing with updating even deleting and reinstalling still it doesn't show up in My Computer or iTunes.
    I did show up like a week ago but then it said it needed a restore or something but now if I plug it in I hear the sound a device is plugin but nothing happens if I open iTunes I don't see the iPod.
    I also tried resetting didn't work either
    The iPod itself still works listening to music on it everyday but I want it to work in iTunes because I want to put new music on it.
    Please someone help me

    Have you tried these pages:
    *[iPod Missing in My Computer or iTunes for Windows|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369]*
    *[Ipod not recognized properly|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538]*
    If you can't see the ipod in disk management or the device manager, before you connect the ipod, open itunes, select edit/preferences, leave this window open and click on show desktop. This will make itunes busy. Then connect the ipod, and try the above help pages.

  • IPhone no longer showing up in (My) Computer and photos no longer synching

    I recently switched from a desktop to a laptop, both of which run Vista Ultimate. The desktop synched fine but the laptop will not sync pictures. I noticed that the desktop shows the iPhone in Computer as a camera but the laptop does not.
    I have:
    1. Uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled iTunes in numerous ways
    2. Manually deleted all references to Apple, Apple Computer, Quicktime and iTunes from the registry and all folders off of the hard drive
    3. I have done a soft and hard reset of the iPhone
    4. I have restored the iPhone to factory from within iTunes
    I know it has something to do with it not showing up in Computer. And if I delete the iTunes driver from Device Manager and tell it to delete the driver from the hard drive, the PC then detects the iPhone as a camera and it shows up in Computer but it no longer shows up in iTunes and I cannot manually copy any files to it
    Any suggestions would be apprectiated!!

    I fixed it!
    You have to go into your Pictures folder and delete the iPhone Photo Cache folder....then it will recreate it and successfully sync!!
    It still does not show up in My Computer but I think if I reconnect my iPOD and enable Disk-Access, that that may resolve that small problem as well

  • Mac os ext hdd icon no show in desktop

  • My Left Command key shows the desktop and can't be used for other functions

    My Left Command key shows the desktop when pressed in.
    So if I try and copy (command + C) I end up staring at the desktop....This only happens with the left key. When checking System Preferences, none of the settings in keyboard preferences seems to be relevant. I have reset the keyboard setting to default, but it makes no difference. Also this only happens with my user, when changing user on same laptop I get the normal behaviour for the Left command key
    I am using a Macbook Pro i7 (2011) Yosemite and am upto date with all software

    Try a restart.
    Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • When I plug my Blackberry curve in it doesnt show up in "my computer"

    I want to put music onto my curve from my itunes, so i looked up online how to do that. The first step it said was that it will ask me if i want to "turn on mass storage mode?" but it didnt ask me that. Ive plugged in my blackberry before and set up the desktop manager. I know the computer detects it because it chimes whenever i plug in the blackberry, but when i go to my computer it does show up? How do i get it to show up in my computer, or even better how do i put on music without it showing up in my comp? thanks in advance

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    You can also try going to Settings>General>Reset>Ease all content and Settings. However, you may not be able to restore via iTunes. You might only be able to only restore from iCloud backup if you have a hardware problem,

    iTunes never displays the iPod in the left pane?
    iTunes is shipped with a "helper application" called the "iPod Service" that runs and is used by iTunes to communicate with the iPod device. This service may be disabled.
    If your system is Microsoft Windows XP and you are logged in as an Administrator:
    1. Quit iTunes and, if your iPod is currently connected to your computer, safely remove it using the system tray application to manage removable devices.
    2. Right click on "My Computer"
    3. Select "Manage"
    4. In the "Computer Management" window, left pane (tree view), follow this path:
    +Computer Management (local) > Services and Applications > Services+.
    5. In the right pane, scroll down to "iPod Service" and double click it.
    6. If the service is listed as "Disabled" and "Stopped," change to "Manual" and "Start" it. ("Manual" will cause it to start when iTunes starts and "Start" starts the service right now.)
    7. Close "Computer Management"
    8. Restart iTunes and wait for it to completely come up.
    9. Reconnect your iPod.
