Synchronising Calender on my Bold 9900 with PC running Windows 8

I cannot synchronise my calender either by wifi or manually. My emails work fine and synchronise. I am using Windows Live Mail. When i try to synch manually I get a message headed "The organiser applications on your computer are not supported" with a further message saying refer to www.blackberry.com/desktops/docs/ for a list of supported applications. This page no longer exists. My PC is an HP Pavilion 23 which came with Microsoft programmes, so i can't really understand what's going wrong. Any suggestions please?
Solved!

As to being supported soon I have no idea.
As to being able to sync your calendar to your phone, you would either need to purchase a copy of Outlook and use the Hotmail connector available or move your calendar to another service such as Google which supports synchronisation over the air.

Connect BB Bold 9900 with HS 700

I bought the HS 700 to phone while driving. It works fantastic, but from one day to the other it stopped working.
Now I have no idea how to fix the problem.
I tried to restart the phone - nothing.
I charged the HS 700 - nothing.
I have tried to connect the Phone and the headset as often as possible - nothing.
Does anyone her have an idea, what to do?

Hi LeslielG,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community.
Can you please verify that the appointments being deleted during synchronization are still on your BlackBerry® Bold™ 9900 smartphone? If they have been removed due to the Keep Appointments setting, the synchronization will try to remove them from Microsoft® Outlook® as well. This KB article provides more information on this. "Calendar items occurring in the past are being deleted from the calendar application on the computer" http://bbry.lv/KKQSel
Hope this helps.

Share Deskjet 3650 on XP with Laptop running Windows 7

Hi
Simple question - maybe not so simple an answer. I have an XP PC with a USB connected Deskjet 3650. I want to share this device with a Laptop running Windows 7 64 bit. My attempts so far have failed - although I can see the printer when I search to add it but Windows 7 says there is no driver available to install. I did install the printer on Windows 7 with USB connection hoping it would use that driver - but no liuck. What am I doing wrong and is there a fix? Thanks

Hello Bigbadger,
I saw your post about trying to install the Deskjet 3650 Color Inkjet Printer on your Windows 7 system. I have researched this for you and unfortunately, there are no drivers available for this printer and Windows 7.
Here are the drivers available for the Deskjet 3650:

Are their still overheating issues with bootcamp running windows 7?

I am wanting to do a little gaming on my mac, but saw plenty of forums pre 2010 about Macs overheating when running windows 7 and even XP. I have a Mid 2012 macbook pro with Intel HD 4000 and a 2.5 Ghz I5 processor, I was wondering if there has been any updates to macs or bootcamp that quells the overheating, and would my mac still be susceptible to this problem?

No changes because the problem is there is no fan control software for Windows that works with the Mac hardware.

Network setup with PC running Windows 7

I have a media server running Windows 7, and a Mac Pro with 10.5.8. What I would like to do is to have all my media files on the PC (running 24 hours a day) and nothing on my mac (media). I would like my Mac to "point" to the PC and access all files over my network with programs like Itunes, movies etc.
Please help me with he best way to setup this network and if there are any limitations. I have tried a SMB share but I have limited networking experience and this isn't working as planned.

Hey. Did you ever get this fixed? Because if not, I have a solution that worked for me. I had the exact problem you've described -- 64 bit version of Windows 7 (mine is Ultimate), "Always available offline" option not appearing
on right click...etc.
Just out of curiosity, did you happen to use Windows Easy Transfer to move files from an old computer to move to Windows 7? Because I have a suspicion that the problem lies somewhere in there.
In any case, here's what I did, step by step.
1. Disable Offline Files (Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Sync Center),
click "manage offline files" then click disable.
2. Restart the computer
3. Delete the CSC folder (C:/Windows/CSC). NOTE: You may have to change the permissions on the CSC folder in order to do this, and once that is done, you need to delete all the folders within the CSC folder first (starting with the farthest
in, and working your way out), because the system will not allow you to delete a folder that still has anything inside it. Once you have all the files within the CSC folder deleted, delete the CSC folder itself.
4. Enable offline files.
5. Restart the computer. The CSC folder -- with its default settings, etc., will now be rebuilt, and when right-clicking a network folder, the "Always available offline" option should appear.
I was experiencing this with a Windows 7 Pro X64 computer connecting to a 2003 server and this resolution worked for me, thank you. For reference, this was a fresh Factory Win7 Install so there was previously no offline files set up. When browsing
to Manage offline files I was unable to view or delete files as those options were greyed out. Once i completed the above tasks they were then not greyed out and visible. Also good to note that other computers (WinXP, Vista, and 7) were
able to successfully sync offline files with the same server before this issue occurred so it was diffidently a problem with that computer specifically.
Cheers

Can not setup email account on Bold 9900 with office 365 POP PORT 995

Hellow Please your support. I can not add an office 365 POP account wih SSL 995 portpop3: outlook.office365.com SSL port 995smtp: smtp.office365.comSSL port 587On a computer the setup go throught with no problem. If there a way to set the port when add an email account ?

Microsoft told you that? Very strange. Did you even try the wizard? Oops...Oh shoot...you are on an old legacy BB device with BIS. Sorry, forgot about that. EAS does not work with BIS, but if they face OWA to the internet for this email, it can integrate with that. I'm pretty sure that Office365 faces OWA.
I don't remember about configuring POP...I gave it up years ago. Only use IMAP and EAS now, no need for ancient POP. But here are some references:Article ID: KB31310 BlackBerry Internet Service and Microsoft Office 365 servicesArticle ID: KB04478 Integrate POP accounts with the BlackBerry Internet ServiceArticle ID: KB03133 How to integrate a Microsoft Outlook Web Access email address on BlackBerry smartphoneArticle ID: KB04804 Error message appears when attempting to integrate a Microsoft Outlook Web Access 2010 accountArticle ID: KB18567 BlackBerry Internet Service cannot connect to a Microsoft Outlook Web Access account which is using Microsoft Exchange 2007, 2010, or 2013Article ID: KB02858 Unable to integrate a Microsoft Outlook Web Access email address with a BlackBerry Internet Service accountArticle ID: KB23361 Microsoft Outlook Web Access authentication methods supported by BlackBerry Internet ServiceGood luck and let us know!

Tungsten E will not hotsync with PC running Windows 7

I hotsync with Palm Desktop 4.1.4. Hotsync worked well in Vista Home Premium 32. After the change to Windows 7, Palm Desktop would not open. It opens now. It appears that the hotsync is normal, but no data is transfered from my PDA to the PC. I've changed the settings in Custom several times. I've checked Outlook. The data is not being diverted there. Any ideas would be much appreciated

Audio problem with T61 running windows 7

hello,
After installing windows 7 Enterprise on my T61, I have no sound.
Driver seems to be installed correctly (Device manager), speakers taskbar icon looks & functioning OK, but i can't hear nothing.
I've installed the suggested Vista driver from Lenovo web site, but the problem remains...
I must mention that there was no problem while using Windows 7 RC, the problem started after installing a clean copy of Win 7 pro.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Eyal.

I've installed win7 over a dozen times on T61 models and never had a problem. Perhaps if you can provide more information, did you reformat your drive before install, or install overtop an existing windows version? If it helps, all my installations are on a freshly formatted partition. Windows installs working drivers on everything except the ricoh card reader, for that you just need to manually install the vista drivers from device manager and it will work. I then run system update and it installs newer drivers for some of the hardware, but like I said, never had an audio problem.

External Apple hard drives usable with macbookpro running Windows?

My kids want to play windows games using our macbookpro. Only one game fits on the installed hard drive. Will I get into compatibility problems if I attach an Apple harddrive to the computer and install more games on it for use on the computer?
Or would we need to reinstall bootcamp and go through the initial partitioning process but using the external hard drive this time around?

There is no such thing as an Apple hard drive. Hard drives are platform independent.
If you format the drive as FAT, then you should have no problem accessing it from Boot Camp, but you should post your question in the Boot Camp discussions just to be sure:

Why I'm giving up my Q10 to go back to the Bold 9900

Hi,
I wanted to take this opportunity to detail my experiences and frustrations with the Q10 and why I have decided to return to the Bold 9900. I'd like to stress that these opinions are my own. I recognize that the industry has a whole has embraced the touch screen concept. But I believe this change isn't right for everyone as I hope to demonstrate below.
I am a very stanch supporter of the traditional Blackberry. I work in IT for a nearly 2,000 user organization. We have 36 IT people on staff and I am the only one still using a Blackberry. I choose to remain with my Bold 9900 for the sole reason that it is the most efficient device I have ever used. Every operation I'd ever want to perform with the device is only 2 or three physical clicks away and perhaps just as importantly, thanks to having physical buttons, those actions are performed in exactly the same way every time. It becomes muscle memory and can be performed regardless of the current state of the device. When the Q10 was announced, you'd be hard pressed to find someone more excited then me. I very much wanted this phone to succeed.
I have now been using the Q10 for a few days now and have encountered a number of what I personally consider show stopper functionality issues. These are issues that I believe are not simply related to my lack of familiarity with touch screens but an issue innate to the touchscreen concept itself. Some issues could be resolved through software updates while others simply cannot.
I have detailed a few of the more pressing frustrations I have below.
- First and foremost, I use an application on the 9900 called "ShortcutMe" by Fonware. This application allows you to write custom macros and assign them to any key on the keyboard. This provides a massively increased efficiency. From any application I'm in, I can press the same 3 physical buttons to have the phone launch anything I want (End Key to get to the main menu, space bar to activate shortcut me, the letter that matches up to the macro). For example, I have macros to quickly launch the flashlight as well as more complex macros to automatically toggle between enabling and disabling Caller ID. I decided to swtich devices when I discovered that Shortcutme now exists for OS10. Immediately after purchasing it however I received an email from Fonware stating that Blackberry currently doesn't allow access to any of the API's required for the macro functionality to work. They apologized. Because of these closed APIs, I can no longer map all of the functions I use the phone to physical keys which completely negates one of the biggest benefits there are to having an always present physical keyboard
- In messages, if you want to select "mark prior read" you can't because due to the nature of a touch screen, there is no concept of highlighting an object. A compromise exists where you click and hold on the date and then select "mark as read" from a popup menu that appears. However, this only appears to work for the start of each day. If you want to select all messages before a message in the middle of the day, you cannot. Additionally, the compromise forces you to select messages one at a time by tapping on them. I often receive bursts of automated alert messages that could be 30 or more messages in a row. With a track pad, I was able to quickly select just those messages mark them as read. I see no way of completing the same task as quickly with a touch screen
- A purely touchscreen interface demands restraint on behalf of the developers when building UI elements to provide a consistent experience. For example when you hold the phone in your hand, your thumb naturally rests on the keyboard and is within reach of all the keys, and where the trackpad and physical keys were. It would also be within reach of the bottom right of the screen where the back button often -- but not always -- is. For example, if you scroll through your messages and select one to read, the back button is at the bottom of the screen in easy reach. However, if you now try to reply to a message, the cancel button (which performs the same operation as back) is now at the physical top of the screen which requires you to completely shift how you're holding the phone to reach.
- Like all touchscreens, if your finger is slightly touching some other portion of the screen and you try to select an option, the phone doesn't respond until shift the phone in your hand so that you're so that you're only touching the button you intended. This results in unintended actions that simply cannot occur with a non-touch screen device.
- You can no longer access internal memory as a USB mass storage device. I wanted to copy a traditional telephone ring tone to the phone (because one is no longer included) but could not simply copy the file to the device through Windows Explorer. I had to insert my microSD card before this was possible.
- Blackberry is not allowing apps to run in the background which means my two must have apps (Shortcutme and Bebuzz) don't work as intended. In the case of Bebuzz, you're forced to leave an active frame opened with it to function.
- The applications shortcuts functionality no longer exists. For example, I can no longer press L to get to the calendar or hold K to lock the device. Instead it searches the device. On OS7, I could get to the same functionality by first pressing s. However, it was much more common that I wanted to jump between applications so why this is not a toggleable option is beyond me. (Admittedly, I do know why. OS10 is a completely different code base which means all of the subtle optimizations made to the legacy code base no longer exist and they are starting from scratch.)
- Memopad was replaced by Remember. Memopad was by design a simple application that served only one purpose -- quickly make notes about something quickly. Memopad was instant. Blackberry Remember admittedly has many more features but those features come at a cost of efficiency and usability. If these features were desired, they could have been made available in a separate app. There is a reason that notepad exists on Windows despite almost all systems also shipping with Word or similar. Also, when you do finally use the Remember application to enter text, you only get a tiny portion of the middle of the screen to actually see your entry. On the Bold 9900, you can see 12 lines of text. In remember, that is reduced to just 5.
- It is possible to use every function of the Bold 9900 with one hand thanks to the trackpad. This is far more difficult with the Q10. For example, try selecting and copying text that exists at the top of the screen on the Q10 with one hand.
- Playing solitaire and other card games on the Bold 9900 is simple enough to do and can be done with one hand and with little physical motion. Trying to play Solitaire on the Q10 is more cumbersome as it requires two hands in order to comfortably reach both sides of the screen. You also end up blocking the card you are trying to select with your finger. This may seem like a more esoteric example but its representative of the kinds of issues you have when trying to use a touch only interface
I could go on but I think it's clear where my frustrations lie. Blackberry has decided to abandon their most distinguishing competitive edge (the keyboard) and instead embrace the touch screen concept just like everyone else. And that is a shame.
If anyone shares any of these frustrations, please reply to this message and share your experiences. I'm curious if I am as unique in my opinions as it sometimes feels like.
Thanks
- Robert Vance

Hi Robert,
I have a similar background and thought process as yourself. I have been a die hard Blackberry guy. I have had
(2) 8250's (with the side roller)
(2) 8330 Curve
8900 Torch
(3) Playbook's
My kids (2) 9360 Curve
9900 Bold
Tried the Z10 and now the Q10.
I am normally very patient with technology. My rule is that I do not use the device until I have read the ENTIRE manual before I use it for the first time.
After using the Z10 for 2 weeks and the Q10 for a week, I will be going to a Samsung Galaxy S4. I am incredbily frustrated and not even sure that the S4 is the right solution.
Nothing can beat the track pad for efficency. My 9900 is simply bogging under the pressure of my use (over 5000 contacts and hundreds of pages of notes). I even deleted everything I can off the 9900 to make it last as long as I could.
The Q10 simply lacks the refinement we were promised. At it's core, it is not effecient and I cannot see how they will make it better. Calendar additions used to be 2 clicks, now it is 5 and I have to wait for things to load. On top of that, my bridge does not work properly (no contacts, no email, no calendar, no notes).....what is the point?
Here is what I cannot do well or at all
Select specific text
back out of certain areas without closing the app and going back in
Easily tell what email address I am sending from (I have 5 address for various reasons)
Shorcuts (that might just be me not doing enough research)
Easy notes (although I did find an app, but it will not hook up with my Outlook)
Google Maps
Enter Calendar events quickly
Mark multiple messages read or unread
Turn my phone off and have the alarm go off in the morning (Bedside mode is the new "OFF")
Entering Bedside mode is not easy (That I have found)
While I am on the subject of the Playbook, it has become very slow and almost unusable. Even something as simple as bringing up the keyboard or turning down the volume has a huge delay.
I have even developed and built a company on using the Playbook, but am now thinking of abandoning the entire platform....I live near Waterloo (the home of Blackberry).
I am VERY frustrated and do not know what to do. I feel like I cannot go back to the 9900 due to the slow downs and lock ups that I was experiencing. I WILL NOT go to iPhone (my kids have had several iDevices), my only choice seems to be the S4......
