Upgrade BB OS version via BB Mac Desktop Manager

I see a way to update the Desktop Manager and update the applications on board, but can I upgrade the OS?
Thanks.

If you click on Applications, there should be a "Check For Updates" button at the bottom left. This will check if there are any newer versions of BlackBerry OS for your BlackBerry.

Bold 9000 on Mac Desktop Manager - Can't Remove Any Applications

In Mac Desktop Manager I go to applications and select the ones I want to remove. I get a message saying:
Validation failed because a module marked for update (net_rim_bis_lib) is not available on local disk
Then, it cancels the application removal.
I am trying to remove some applications that I loaded (QuickPull among others) that I think are slowing down my Bold. I have deleted them when on the Bold, but they still appear as loaded in the Desktop Manager. Ever since putting this app on my BB, I get many more clocks and it runs much slower. Thanks for the help.
I have done a battery pull for 10 minutes, but no change.

Not having a media card in your BlackBerry may affect your ability to transfer media files onto it. There is a file size limit of 2.86MB when transferring files into device memory. http://bbry.lv/9XNuy0
Have you verified that the applications you are trying to install are supported by your current wireless provider? Unlocked devices from one provider may not have full functionality on another network.

Wifi Music Sync missing from my Mac Desktop Manager

I have Mac Desktop Manager v2.0.4 which, according to everything I have read online, should have the Wifi music sync feature under Device options:Media tab. Yet, mine simply doesn't have it.
Any thoughts about why this could be happening?
Thanks,
Steve

Mac Desktop Manager - Device has run out of memory

So, long story short, this is the latest (of a very long string) of error messages. I have been able, with the help of these forums, to troubleshoot all the others.
I am syncing my BB 8120 (v4.5.0.174) to iCal with the Desktop Manager, only set to sync calendar. It simply drops with an error that the 'Device has run out of memory'. Checking the Applications tab shows 17mb of free space.
History:
I got this Blackberry a few months ago, deciding I wanted a robust phone with good battery life that had email.
I use gmail. Apparently this is not compatible with BIS, and had continual problems. This is still unsatisfactory - I have to use the gmail app which causes problems (hanging) and does not support push.
I was dismayed to discover that a Blackberry sync client for Mac had only recently been announced, however I persevered.
When it was released, I started using it, but it has continually given errors on all manner of different combinations.
I recently solved the contacts problem by syncing using the Google sync, which syncs also with my mac over the air.
This is not a solution for the calendars because iCal does not support google calendars well enough for my liking.
The phone sporadically has a spinning hourglass, for what reason(s) I cannot determine, even after battery pulls etc.
Suffice to say I have spent hundreds of hours troubleshooting this phone over the last months. For a phone whose main selling functions are email and organisation, it does neither of these reliably or well.
If I do not solve this problem soon I will return to my old phone which supported everything above more reliably, and had 4 times the battery life to boot. The only thing I would miss is the qwerty keyboard.

Ah yes, good old Project Manager. There are plenty of times when it causes more problems than it solves.
You might try deleting the following folder:
User/Library/Preferences/Logic/PM Data
If you use Project Manager, it's easy enough to rebuild the table. If you don't then don't worry - just delete it. By the way, if you're into Project Manager or would like to know more, go to the website of the perhaps the most generous man in the Logic world, Edgar Rothermich and grab some of his user manuals.

Upgraded to firefox version 5 for Mac OSX 10, from version 3.6.18, now cannot open.pdf files from links . Only get blank page.

Worked okay with previous version of Firefox 3.6.18

The following worked for me:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/684867
"Problem: I had the same problem but with mac osx 10.5.8, Firefox 3.6.6 sometimes prints and sometimes does not, but the preview was always blank and I could not save to pdf file.
Solution: I downloaded Firefox 3.5.10, installed it on my desktop and opened it, tried print preview and it worked, quit Firefox 3.5.10 and ran 3.6.6 and voila! print preview is working fine and I can save to pdf fine.
I guess running 3.5.10 fixes the profile in a certain way. I have no idea how that happened but it worked."

Upgrade from Windows version to a Mac Version?

All,
I started on Director over 10 years ago but it all died off.
Seems it has rekindled a bit with version 12?
My license (still have the box, CD's and license keys) are for Windows.
If/When I upgrade, can I specify a MAC license so I can develop for the iPad?
Or are you going to make me buy a full version?

ooh. Found the answer. Apparently I can

Re: How to Import .CSV file using Mac Desktop Manager 1.0.4?

I am at a total loss. I have exported my existing address book of 3100 contacts and it can be in any format - csv or whatever.
It is from an app called NowContcat and up to date. You would not know it.
Anyway all I want to do is import to my BB Bold 9000 running the latest upgrades.
Can anyone help? - I have tried to read all of the posts but there does not seem to be anything i the manual or otherwise.

Hey kempyau,
To clarify your issue, are you looking to take the csv file of 3100 contacts and synchronize it with your BlackBerry?
You can import the contacts in Mac Address Book and then use BlackBerry Desktop Software to synchronize the contacts.

Won't connect to the Mac version of Desktop Manager

I have a blackberry 8520 v 4.6.1.314 (platform 4.2.0.135). It used to connect to the desktop manager, but now it won't connect at all.
The desktop manager reads the cellphone type just fine (on the screen it reads the name (my name), the cellphone type, the PIN number, and how much space my media card has left) but if I click the icon on the upper-left side of the screen, it says that my cellphone is not connected. The back-Up, Restore, and Sync buttons are all greyed.
How do I fix this? It used to be just fine a couple of months ago, and I never changed anything on my blackberry. -- in short, it has the same condition as it was before, when everything was a OK.
PS: My Mac version of the Blackberry Desktop Manager is the newest version.

Did you try a hard reset? ( phone powered on / remove battery / replace 15 seconds later and wait for reboot)
Did this work?
If not, make sure you have mass storage mode enabled on your device:
To enable mass storage mode complete the following steps:
Connect your BlackBerry smartphone to your computer.
From the Home screen of the BlackBerry smartphone, click Options > Media Card or Memory, or click Options > Advanced Options > Media Card(depending on which BlackBerry® Device Software version you are running).
Press the Menu key and change Mass Storage Mode Support to On.
To enable Mass Storage Mode automatically every time you connect, scroll down to Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode when Connected and change it to Yes.
Press the Menu key and click on Save.
Enter your BlackBerry smartphone password and click Enter (if prompted).

BlackBerry Desktop Software Is their a download for Mac desktop Os 10.5.8

Hi
I was wondering if their is an archive within Blackberry where I could download a BlackBerry Desktop Software for my mac. I am useing 10.5.8, the new version is for 10.6 or higher.
Regards
Vintage Tec head 8088

This subject has been discussed on the forum already.
No earlier versions of the MAC desktop software for reasons unknown to us.
Indeed PC versions can be retrieved somewhere, I guess, but not for the Mac.
Only a possible reader of this forum could offer you his file if still an older version in his archive folders or something similar.
Fingers crossed
Please don't forget to mark as "solved" if your question is replied and to "like" a useful reply to your post ;-)

How to delete iPhone camera roll's photos in new version Photos for Mac

Hi,
Before upgrade to new version Photos for Mac. I was using iPhoto + Photo Stream to manage all the photos took from my iPhone.
Photo Stream will upload all new photos to iPhoto; when I connect iPhone to my mac, I can use iPhoto to delete my iPhone's camera roll's photos to clear the storage space.
After I upgraded to Photos; the Photo Stream still running well, all new photos also upload to Photos' library, however, when I connect iPhone to my mac.
Photos doesn't offer me any method to delete my iPhone camera roll's photos.
What I can find is "Import Selected" or "Import All" and "Delete items after import" these functions are doesn't help.
Because, all the photos are already imported by Photo Stream, when I click "Import All", all the imported photos will "RE-IMPORT" again and the photos will duplicate in my library.
This is also a BUGS in Photos because in old version iPhoto when I import a photo which has already imported before, the software will pop-up a Dialogue Box to ask me options to choose between "Skip" or "Overwrite" or "Duplicate".
Do anyone know how to delete the iPhone camera roll's photos by using new version Photos?
Thank you very much.
