Syncing Blackberry Bold with MacBook Pro (Running OS X Mavericks)

I recently purchased a Blackberry Bold 9900 and am attemting to sync my Calendar (iCal), Contacts, Notes and Reminders with the BB 9900.
I understand that if you are using more recently Mac OS, SyncServices is no longer active and we need to use Blackberry Link.  But Blackberry Link only works for BB10 and higher.
I am using Bb Desktop Manager, however, when I go to the calendar, contacts, etc. tabs on the left, it tells me for calendar that no syncable calendar can be found and under contacts it tells me to enable SyncServices, but I cannot do that since I am using an updated OS X.
I am fine with plugging in my BB always to sync, but do not know how to remedy this issue.  Thanks.

Also - I need to add that the printer is sitting about an inch away from the Mac.

  • How do I get Snow to work with MacBook Pro running Tiger?

    I have a MacBook Pro running Tiger (obviously), and have been trying to get my Snow base station (a.k.a. Dual Ethernet) to work with it, but couldn't.
    After hours of searching these pages, Apple Support and Google, I found this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301510
    So...it seems like it can't be done. The question now is...what do I do? The Support page doesn't give me any help
    Anyone have any tips?

    Just to confirm, n5k, the article 301510 says, 'To administer the original AirPort Base Station (Graphite) or second-generation AirPort Base Station (Dual Ethernet) from a Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" computer, you must use AirPort Admin Utility'. It doesn't say it can't be done at all, just that that neither of the Airport Setup Assistants will work.
    I'm having the same problem as you, accessing the Internet from a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.4.6 (yes, obviously) through a Snow Base Station. Now I am wondering if we will be helped by the MacBook Pro SMC (whatever that stands for) Firmware Update which I am downloading now.

  • Can't open documents created in Pages with macBook pro running maverick

    Hello,
    I just bought the new MacBook Pro and downloaded iWork.  Now when I create a document in Pages and save it to Documents, I can't open it.  I get an error messages saying a file is missing.  Also, all my old documents created with Pages that I transfered from my old MacBook won't open.  It says file too old, need to save to Pages 09. 
    Tried opening the old documents in Pages 08 and saving them, but still can't open them.
    Any suggestions?

    Further to my earlier post about this problem, our IT man came in to the office, by coincidence, so I grabbed him and it seems that he has cracked it.
    You need to proceed as follows :
    Select the document by single click on the icon (i.e. select it but don't double click which will try to open it.)
    Go to File Menu and chose "Get Info"
    Half way down the drop down menu, chose "Open with" then select Pages 4.0 (i.e. the iWorks 9 version)
    This process will open that particular iWorks 8 document.
    But, if you also tick the "Change All" box it means that opening with the new version of Pages will become the default and will apply to all iWork 8 documents so you should not need to bother with this ever again.
    So far, that seems to work.
    (One might have thought it would have been a good idea for Apple to have built this in as a default ?)

  • SYNC BLACKBERRY BOLD WITH BLACKBERRY Z10

    Have been using Blackberry Bold 9700 for many years and regularly backing up on my lap top. Got Z10 and cannot sync contacts. Blackberry Link does not recognise Blackberyy Bold. Need help.

    Did you do back up of your contacts on your previous device? if so you can follow these steps 
    1. Open BlackBerry Link and connect your old BlackBerry smartphone to the computer using the USB cable.
    2. Click Transfer Device Data.
    3. Wait while the data is copied from your BlackBerry smartphone.
    4. Disconnect your old BlackBerry smartphone and connect your BlackBerry Z10 to the computer using the USB cable.
    5. Click on the BlackBerry Z10.
    6. Click Next.
    7. Wait while the data is transferred to your BlackBerry Z10.
    8. The data has been transferred to your BlackBerry Z10.

  • Possible to sync Zune 80 with Macbook Pro?

         I went to an Apple store to buy an entry-level Macbook Pro today, and, luckily as it turns out, was unable to, for I was caught off guard by by an apparent weekend spending cap on my debit card that I had never known of. This is lucky, because, as soon as I got home, I, owning a second generation zune, out of curiosity searched for the Mac version of the Zune software. To my amazement, there isn't one. This is completely baffling to me, and I was wondering if there was any other way, preferably free, to get content onto my Zune from the Macbook Pro. Also, if there is a way, hopefully with the same method, if there is one, to move content from my Zune onto a Macbook, as the reason I'm buying this laptop is because my Windows desktop is recently bricked, and my Zune is now the only place I have my 70Gb of music.
         I'd love to get an iPhone and circumvent this problem altogether, but it's simply out of my budget right now, plus it seems that there are a million rumors concerning a new model being released soon, so I wouldn't want to buy one and then have it be outdated several weeks later. I had been really looking forward to buying and learning my first mac, but this is a huge problem that has just completely blindsided me, and there's no way I can survive without my music, so if there's no way to connect my Zune 80 to a Macbook Pro, then I won't be able to buy one.
         Thanks for any help.

    No way, I already researched it for someone else before.
    No Mac + Zune possible.
    Your going to have to use someone elses PC and get the music off then do whatever to strip the DRM or other Zune issues transpose into universally accepted Mp3 format that iTunes can handle no problem.
    1: You didn't backup up your files.
    2: You got locked into a proprietary device/format.
    You got "Zuned".

  • 2012 Macbook Pro running slowly since mavericks update

    Since updating to Mavericks when it was first released my macbok pro has been running very slowly. Starting up apps takes longer, hangs occur when switching between apps or even browser tabs, when i close the lid the laptop won't go to sleep but instead heats up and i can't listen to a song on itunes the whole way through without several 20 or so second pauses. I have tried repair permissions (this oddly improves performance when its running), resetting NVRAM/PRAM. resetting SMC and a Hardware test but nothing worked/ no problems identified. The problems still occur in safe mode and when i added a new user. I also removed any apps or software that could be causing it such as chrome but this didn't help.
    Similar problems occured the last time i update the mac, though they were much more severe and lead to the hard drive being replaced at the apple store. It had been running smoothly until the mavericks update.
    After looking at similar posts i took the liberty of providing the following information:

    Hi Somajoe,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you have tried a lot of good troubleshooting steps. Since the behavior persists in safe mode and a new user, and you have effectively ruled out third party software conflicts, I recommend reinstalling Mavericks next:

  • Sync BlackBerry 8800 with MacBook

    I'm using MacBook running 10.4.9. Also, I'm using BlackBerry 8800.
    Now, I have tried both PocketMac & Missing Sync for BlackBerry, but both didn't work. I managed to sync with iCal, but not Address Book. Can anyone help me?
    I want to know if the USB cable matters? 'Cos I left the original BlackBerry USB cable at office for synchronizing with my desktop PC. So I use the USB cable for my Motorola mobile phone, which is also USB to mini-USB. Could this be the cause for not being able to sync? But if that is the case, why I can sync iCal? So, I suppose this was not the cause.
    Now, if that's not the cause, can anyone please help? Greatly appreciate.
    Thanks and regards,
    Gary

    I believe that it's actually more accurate to say that the 'decision' was one by RIM rather than Mark/Space. Here's what the developer of the Missing Sync for Blackberry has to say about using BES wireless synchronization:
    "…you can sync the BlackBerry to the BES, but in order to sync the BlackBerry to the Mac using Missing Sync you will need to turn off the BES sync and then sync, when you are done syncing with your Mac you can turn the BES sync back on on the device.
    Steps for turning off BES wireless sync:
    1. Launch Address Book on the BlackBerry.
    2. Access the Menu (press wheel or menu button depending on device).
    3. Choose Options.
    4. If BES is enabled, there will be a Wireless Synchronization menu item.
    5. Make sure the Wireless Synchronization option is set to NO.
    6. Repeat for each of the following that have Wireless Sync enabled: Calendar, Tasks, and MemoPad.
    For the sync with Missing Sync to work the wireless sync must be turned off at the application level.
    Please note, if you are trying to sync to both the Mac and the BES then you need to click on the 'Preference' option in Missing Sync and check the option: 'Allow syncing to multiple computers'. If you do not check that option then you will not be able to keep everything in sync when changes are made on the device and then synced to the BES before syncing to the Mac."

    Thanks for your help Brij011 - much appreciated. Apologies as I'm a newbie but I've looked at the info for synching and I appear to have all the switches flicked on my iPad. Does the iPad and iBooks only sync in iCloud for purchases as I appear to be doing something wrong. I could sync ok when books was in iTunes but since migrating to Mavericks I think I'm doing something wrong!!

    Have a MacBook Pro running 10.5.8 Leopard.  Can I just download 10.6.8 Snow Leopard so I can wifi sync with iPhone and iPad?

    To expand on Niels post...
    First you need to check that your current Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
    Snow Leopard Specs:

    If it does... then you need to Purchase and Install the Snow Leopard Disc,

    Bobby D,
    Thanks for the help.  I learned quite a bit from your answer.  Turns out I was looking in Outlook for the MAC instead of Address Book on my MAC which already had all my contacts.  Once I imported them to Outlook, problem solved.  It will be interesting to see if when I add a new contact it updates Outlook.
    Thanks again,

    I have an I phone 4S that is having almost the same problem, and only some of the newly added contact of the phone are added to the address book, so not a big difference, and its not a solution to get read of all products only because we use apple.
