Synchronization Problems with BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.5v and Windows Mail Client

BlackBerry (RIM) Desktop Manager 4.5v synchronization setup does not work properly. I cannot synchronize my desktop calendar because the only desktop application formats available are (<None>, Ascii Import/Export and Yahoo), Windows Mail is not an option!
I contacted BlackBerry and the only response I received was that I need the Outlook Express program to synchronize my desktop calendar.
Microsoft upgraded from the Outlook program to Windows mail to provide a better program, which I happen to like! The idea of purchasing the Outlook Express software when there is nothing wrong with my current mail program does not make any sense to me! And will BlackBerry support any Vista system issues if there are any compatibility problems with the old Microsoft mail client?
Has anyone contacted BlackBerry about this issue? Any ideas how to fix this problem?
Why can’t Blackberry (RIM) resolve the synchronization issue? In addition to this problem, you may find that the Desktop Manager Device Switch Wizard does not function with the Treo 650 and BlackBerry 8830 and the Advanced feature in Backup and Restore does not seem to save the any files that you want to restore.
BlackBerry Please Help!
Note:
Microsoft Office Standard 2007 is $399, really expensive! Not sure if you can purchase the mail client separately.
- Microsoft website: [“Outlook Express has been replaced by Windows Mail, an improved e‑mail program with enhancements such as junk e‑mail filtering and protection against phishing messages.”]

Hello My8830
You can only synchronize contacts with Windows Mail - you can not synchronize calendar, memos, or tasks.  Outlook express does not have these items, and the version of Windows Mail that I am running also does not have them.  Windows Calendar is seperate from windows mail on my version of Vista.
So to clarify it all, downgrading to Outlook Express will still not get you calendar synchronization as it does not have a calendar.
Cheers

  • Problem with Remote Desktop on iPad 2 and windows 8.1 pro

    I downloaded the Microsoft Remote Desktop app from the App Store on my iPad 2. I typed in the IP address for my windows 8.1 pro computer on my iPad 2 in school to try connecting to my windows 8.1 pro computer at home. I'm having
    a hard time doing it. Do I need a rd remote gateway to access my computer from outside my local network. If so, how do I find my gateway server name? Also, I saw somewhere that I have to press accept in a pop up message on the computer your trying to connect
    to. Is this true? No one is home during the day and my iPad 2 has to stay in school. Can you please give me a step by step guide with photos to help me connect to my windows 8.1 pro computer from my iPad 2 from school, which is of course outside my local network.

  • Sync problem with Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac

    Can someone help. I have synchronization problem with my contact in the Outlook for Mac using blackberry desktop software for mac. Seems all details in my blackberry handheld contact got synchronized, but not email addresses (so all names, jobs, companies, work phone, mobile - all got synchronized, but not email addresses). All data is in my handheld. I wish I could just "replace" (not merge/sync) outlook contact with all contact in the handheld but seems there is no option to do that. Let me know please if someone has similar experience and has found out solution. Thanks!

  • Problem with Blackberry Desktop Software 4.3 Installation

    Hi - I downloaded the Blackberry Desktop Software 4.3.   The exec is called:  430_b025_english.exe
     When I run the exec I receive an error:  
     ERROR 1327.Invalid Drive E:\
    However I have no Drive E attached.  
    What should I do?  Please help and thank you in advance.

    Yes you would choose the bottom option (either blackberry internet service, or setting p a personal email account). You can still use the software to sync with an email clinet on your computer.

  • Problem with running contract manager under WLS as windows service

    I am having a problem running Contract Manager V13 as a windows service. I am using weblogic 10gR3 app server running under Windows 2008 sp2 (32 bit). The system functions just fine if run as an application from the command line. When I use the Oracle install contract manager as admin server (using jrockit) script from Oracle support, the service installs OK, but when starting I get:
    +"The contract-mgr-svc-jrockit service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."+
    Has anyone run into this problem of windows services not working? If so how did you fix it?
    How are others starting contract manager automatically under Weblogic server, without having to do a manual startup?
    I am dealing with this disclaimer from Oracle:
    Disclaimer: Contract Management has not been officially tested with WebLogic as a Windows service. If experiencing a problem under this configuration that cannot be reproduced, while running as an application, the solution be to run Contract Management as an application.
    and have been working with Oracle support for 2-3 weeks now on this problem without any luck.
    Is the situation with using Windows services better if I use JBoss application server? Does Oracle officially support Windows service running with JBoss?
    Thanks in advance...

    What account is the service running under? It may be that the service does not have access to the folders it needs, or does not have the right java CLASSPATH set.
    Can you try running the service under the exact same account that successfully runs via the command line?
    Cheers,
    Daniel

  • Problems with the web based email page and Windows...

    We've just upgraded our PC to Windows 8 and I've read the bit on the Help page which says that Yahoo Mail is not compatible with Windows 8 and that we need to access our email via the webpage. Fair enough - though why Yahoo mail still won't work with Windows 8, which after all isn't that new is another matter.
    Our problem is that when we access our email via the www.bt.com webpage we have the following problems:
    It seems to be very slow
    When you click on the first unopened email in the list to open it, it usually opens one further down the list. You can get it to open the one you want if you tick the box next to it first, but that wasn't what you needed to do previously.
    When you try andreply to an email and start typing, your text appears in one place while the curser is actually somewhere else. If you make a mistake when typing and try and go back it doesn't work well.
    I tried getting help via a Live Chat with someone but she directed me back to the page I'd already seen saying BT Yahoo Mail and Windows 8 can't talk to each other and you need to access emails via the webpage.
    Has anyone else had the same problem? Any answers?
    Thanks - Kiwirob199
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Just install an email client such as Thunderbird or Windows Live Mail, much easier than messing about with webmail.

  • I can't send email with Adobe acrobat 9.2.0 and Windows mail

    Hi, I have the problem mentioned in the subjet: I can't send e-mail with pdf attached from Acrobat 9.2.0...when I click on the envelope acrobat tells me it can't estabilish a link to Windows Mail (latest version).
    Any idea?
    Thanks in advance.
    Massimo.
    Ps: I try to use the search funtion but without luck.

    Andrea. Just fixed my issue.
    This worked for me.
    1. I deleted my iCloud account from Mail settings on my iPhone and iPad. Make sure to keep all information in your iPhone
    2. I then went back to settings and chose iCloud instead of mail and logged in using my Apple id (.mac). It asks you to merge data (say yes)
    3. I went back to Mail setting and then iCloud account. You will notice apple Id reverts back to (.mac) address but if you select Account <apple id> and look under advanced the email address under mail will be your new (.me) address.
    Hope this helps. I've been trying for 5 days. Just make sure to add back iCloud through the iCloud settings and not through Mail settings.

  • Problems with VAMT 3 to Activate Office and windows

    Hope someone can help with this problem.  =)
    The  School that i work for has a Volume Licence Agreement  for Windows and Office, and now we are starting to deploy office 2013 plus.
    Our problems started when we upgraded to VAMT 3.  The proccess went like this:
    Downloaded and installed all components from the Windows
    ADK, then imported the vamt 2 catalog (all the computers activated with vamt 2 are shown correctly)  then added the Windows 8 and Office 2013 MAK keys to VAMT 3.
    Next step was to search for devices, (by hostname),
    VAMT 3 found the computer, then proceeded to to update the licence status for the computer, then a window came up stating :  0/1 completed 0/0 succesfull  0/0 Failed .  No further error is shown.
    in order to troubleshoot i completely disabled Firewall  and UAC, also added the suggested Dword  LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy Value=1 to the registry on the client computer.
    The Computer that has windows ADK has Windows 7 pro 64 bits and its up to date.
    Any help is welcome.  Thanks in advanced.

    Hi,
    You encounter a known issue described in the following article:
    When opening a Computer Information List (.cil file) saved in a previous version of VAMT, the edition information is not shown for each product in the center pane. Users must update the product status again to obtain the edition information

  • Problems with Sound Blaster Live! 1024 and Windows 2000 Profession

    Hello everybody, and thank you since now for your help and support.
    Please, forgive my english (I'm italian) not so good, but I hope you can understand me the same.
    I have a Sound Blaster Li've! 024, and so far everything works fine with <EM>Windows 98 SE</EM>, but lately I have installed <EM>Windows 2000 Professional </EM>on my PC, and now nothing works.
    Nothing, neither the softwares, they don't even start!
    Here is what I tried so far:
    - First, I tried to install the old version of the programs, the ones that I had in the CD-ROM when I bought the sound card. At this point, I couldn't even uninstall the softwares!
    - Then, I tried to update the drivers, but it seems that they're already updated when you install Win2000, and the uninstallation didn't works yet.
    - At last, I have downloaded the new software pack, Li'veDrvUni-Pack.exe, but nothing even so. But with this, at least, I was able to uninstall everything from the PC (even if not perfectly).
    - Today, I tried to install only the new pack, Li'veDrvUni-Pack.exe, but still nothing works. When I start running the program (e.g. AudioHQ), I can see the hourglass for few seconds and then everything aborts.
    Please, help me! What can I do? I really don't want to buy a new sound card, even because my SB Li've! 024 works perfectly until now.
    Thank you very much for the attention and for your suggestions.
