I have a new Blackberry (so am also new to this forum). I have been doing backups but when my phone updated and wiped out everything today, none of the downloads I had downloaded reappeared when I did a restore. Alltel tells me that's the case--that downloaded apps cannot be updated.
Is this really the case? If so, is RIM in the Dark Ages? Can you imagine if everytime Microsoft provided a Windows update you had to download or reinstall all your applications again? What's up with RIM if this is the case?
Or is there a way (hopefully) to backup the apps to a computer so when Alltel requires updates, I don't have to start from scratch and redownload everything again?
