Using DeskTop Software to Sync my calendar

I recently purchased a new laptop. Previously I used the desktop software to sync my Microsoft Outlook calendar. I decided not to purchase Outlook this time and am using Windows Live Mail. However, when I sync, my calendar isn't updating on my phone (BB curve 8530) My carrier is Verizon and version is v5.0.0.973. Can anyone answer the question -am I able to sync my Live calendar and if so how?

BlackBerry Desktop Software utilizes Apple's SyncServices technology in order to synchronize Contact, Calendar, Notes, and Tasks information to and from the Mac computer.
BlackBerry Desktop Software synchronizes information with the SyncServices database, which is synchronized with the desktop applications on the Mac computer (for example: Apple Address Book, iCal, Apple Mail, Microsoft Outlook for Mac). BlackBerry Desktop Software does not synchronize directly to or from the desktop applications on the Mac computer.
Mac OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later does not use SyncServices, therefore, it is not possible to synchronize Contact or Calendar information using the BlackBerry Desktop Software on these versions of OS X.
For more information on SyncServices and OS X Mavericks, see the following Apple Support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
Note: BlackBerry Desktop software 2.4 is still supported for use with Mac OS X v10.6, 10.7, and 10.8.

Hi gbslade,
Considering your issue only seems to be with contacts, I would suspect there may be a corrupt/invalid contact entry in your Yahoo account. My suggestion is to first setup a one-way synchronization from the BlackBerry to Yahoo, then do the opposite. This should indicate where the issue is originating.
As well, check your Yahoo address book for any blank or incomplete contacts. Contacts that are missing a first name, last name and company name cannot be synchronized to the BlackBerry and could potentially cause hang-ups or a failed synchronization. A contact must have at least one of those three fields filled out.
Thanks!

Bold 9900 won't update using desktop software

hello,
I have mountain lion on my Mac - using desktop software to update my bold 9900 to 7.1.0.2061.
It gets stuck after backing up third party applications and I get the error message - The device data could not be backed up, ensure that you can backup data on your device and try again.
I have done a factory reset and still same message. What is the problem? It won't run the update at all. Have backed up using blackberry protect as desktop software won't back up.
Any ideas?
thanks!

This could be caused by a third-party application. Have you tried to uninstall non critical "exotic" apps before launching the backup process?
Secondly, do you have enough space available on your computer hard disk?
The backup function works as expected on my Mac for 3 different BB devices.
Please don't forget to mark as "solved" if your question is replied and to "like" a useful reply to your post ;-)

Sync Problems between Blackberry 8330 and Outlook 2007 using Desktop software v 4.7

I have a Blackberry Curve 8330 and I have been experiencing some problems syncing it with my HP Notebook running Outlook 2007. I am using the most current Desktop Software version 4.7. I am using the BB Internet Service and all of my email accounts seem to be operating well. When I attempt to sync I receive the following errors in this sequence
Error 1: Intellisync; There are no applications configured for synchronization. From the synchronize screen, go to Configure > Synchronization to configure the applications.
At this point, I attempt to follow the above instructions and configure the applications I want to Sync. When I complete the above step for all applications, or each one seperately, I receive the following error:
Error 2: Runtime Error; Folder is no longer a part of the system data source or the folder can not be found.
As I stated above, I receive the error for all 4 applications (Address Book, Calendar, Memos and Tasks) whether they are configured seperately or all at once. I have unistalled the desktop software v4.7 5 times and Outlook 3 times. I am truly at a loss and in dire need of my Calendar and Contacts on my phone. If anyone has come across this in the past or has any ideas, Please feel free to comment or reply. Any info will be greatly appreciated!!!
BB: 8330 Curve
DS: Desktop Software v 4.7
PC: HP TX2500Z Notebook/Tablet

Error when configuring Desktop Software with Outlook 2007 Calendar

Hello,
I am trying to find some help for a problem I'm having with a Blackberry 8100. I would like to use the Desktop Software 5.0 in conjunction with Outlook 2007 (on Windows 7 64 bits) to sync the calendar between the device and the computer. Actually I pretend to change Lotus Notes (which worked perfectly) for Outlook 2007.
The problem appears during the configuration process on the Desktop Software. I go to the configuration wizard for the calendar, choose Outlook, select bidirectional syncronization and then after clicking Next a small window appears (it happens also with both one-way options).
The window has Error as title and no other text, just an OK button. After closing it the wizard goes on asking for which Outlook profile to sync with. Unfortunately, the drop menu list does not show any profiles, it is completely blank.
I've tried creating, removing and renaming new profiles helplessly, as the error windows appears again and no profile is listed.
How could I solve it? Any idea would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help,
Roger

Hey becgps,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Have you tried performing a detect and repair in Microsoft Outlook and then attempt to setup the configuration?

Desktop Software v7 Sync Problems with Outlook

Hi all, We've just upgraded our copies of desktop software from v6 to v7, however an error message now appears during synchonisation:
"ERROR: COLTransbase::MoveFirstSummaryRecord: Unable to move to first or next row."
Clicking "OK" removes the error message, synchronisation continues but no new entries are synced to the phone, this happens regardless of what the data is (calendar, notes, contacts etc.) The PC this problem occurs on is running Windows XP SP3, with Outlook 2003 connected to Exchange Server 5.5 SP4 via MAPI. The phone is a BB Torch 9800. This setup worked perfectly with Desktop Software v6.
Some troubleshooting steps I've tried, with no success:
Completely uninstalling v7 including removing registry entries and program folders then reinstalling a clean version
Powering off the phone (including removing the battery) and powering it back up again
Creating a new blank calendar in Outlook with NO entries then configuring desktop software to ONLY sync to that calendar
Using the "delete data" feature to delete calendar data off the phone then attempting to resync
I've tried looking for Desktop Software v6 off the Backberry website but can't find it, any link just sends me to v7!
Fortunately I had a copy of Desktop Software v6.01 saved, so I completely removed v7, reinstalled v6.01, connected the phone and now ALL data synchronises with no errors, I even created a new test entry in Outlook's calendar, resynced and it appeared on the phone.
I'm stumped! Any suggestions would be most welcome...

Create one contact in outlook and save it. Close outlook, then sync blackberry desktop and outlook. It should be fine.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I suggest this thread:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Software-for-PC/Cleanly-quot-Starting-Over-quot-with-...
It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.
Good luck!

Using Desktop Software for Mac with an 8703e - Can it be done?

I downloaded the new BB desktop software for Mac but it doesn't seem to work with my 8703e device. And since I had to erase the PocketMac software to install the new BB software, I now have no way to synch my Mac and BB. Can anyone shed any light on this?

You might check out the FileBrowser app on iTunes. I haven't used it, but it sounds like what you're after. When you say you can't use the Sierra iG2 with your iPad, I'm assuming you mean you can't plug it into the iPad. If it's plugged into a laptop and offering a WiFi hotspot, the iPad should be good with that. I use the Apple Camera Connection Kit to carry extra movies on an SD card. It uploads only to the Photos app, so no books, etc.

Windows 7 wants to reformat my phone when I use Desktop Software

I plugged my Curve 9360 into the Desktop software prog version 7.1.0.32 on my PC and received a Windows pop-up message as follows:
"You need to format the disk in drive G: before you can use it.
Do you want to format it?"
The options were "Format disk" and "Cancel"
Obviously I pressed Cancel, but what on earth is going on???
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Yelizaveta and welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
Do you have a Media Card inserted in your BlackBerry® Curve™ 9360 smartphone? If so, this message would be in reference to it.
When you go to use your device as a Mass Storage device, if your card is not formatted the computer will not be able to access your card.
If you remove your media card then reinsert it into your device, do you get any error message on your device? If so, what?
Thanks!

Using Desktop software on different Windows platforms?

Dumb question from Blackberry newbie. I have a desktop with Windows Vista 64 bit and Outlook 2007 plus a laptop with Windows XP 32 bit and Outlook 2003. If I install Blackberry Desktop software on both will they work on same Storm smartphone, or am I looking for trouble?

Hi Ory69 and welcome to Discussions,
from the requirements you provided, I don't see a hinderance not to use Guardian Edge as long as you use Windows XP.
Why Windows Vista is not mentioned is a little mysterious, but might have a reason.
The MBP meets these requirements.
Only thing that could be a hinderance is the section with the 'BIOS Int 13h'.
According to this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INT_13 the Int 13h is a Low Level Disk Services, which can cause trouble on a Mac, since Macs don't have a BIOS, but use the EFI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExtensibleFirmwareInterface , which is the successor of BIOS.
If Guardian Edge is relying on the presence of a BIOS, this can be a reason why it won't work on a Mac with BootCamp Windows.
So it might be wise, to contact Guardian Edge asking them if they see/know of problems using their software on a Mac.
Regards
Stefan

Accessing Password Keeper Data using Desktop Software

I recently had a pressure crack to the LCD on my Curve 8310.
I need to access my stored passwords in Password Keeper, however since the LCD is toast, can't read anything on the phone.
I'm waiting on a replacement LCD, but need Password, ASAP.
Is there any programs to view the program on the pc?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I tried a solution which did actuall work, so I figured I would post in case anyone else has this same problem.
I had previously backed up the data from my Blackberry Curve 8310 using the Desktop Management Software.
I downloaded a Simulatr for my Curve 8310 and installed the software. I found the simulator at BlackBerry Smartphone Simulators - URL
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/resources/simulators.jsp
Once the program was installed I ran the program, which brings up an image of the phone.
I started my Desktop Management Software.
Now back in the Smartphone Simulator
In the menu, I selected "USB Cable Connected" which simulates connecting the smartphone.
Once I did this, the Desktop Management Software prompted me to create settings for then new phone.
Once I set up this new Virtual Phone, I Restored my backup from the Desktop Management Software to the New Virtual Phone.
I could then use the mouse to go to the Password Keeper and open the program. It prompted me for my password and all of the data appeared.
Hope this helps someone else. Good Luck.
Mark
