Has anyone been able to figure out how to synch a Sprint BlackBerry 8830 with Outlook 2007? Sprint Technical Support says it cannot be done.

Try BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.5 or higher.

I've synched my 8830 and and 8330 with outlook '07 and I've used 4.3/4.5/4.7 the carrier won't have an effect on it.

Have you tried it yourself?

I've only tried using Desktop 4.3. Sprint says they won't support any newer release and that using anything beyond 4.3 will, like.......blow up the 8830. I'll try it any way. Thanks.

Try a newer version of the desktop manager, Sprint support is wrong, the desktop manager will not "blow up" your 8830.

i have a sprint 8330 and i cannot get mine to sync with outlook as well. i have tried the updated version of desktop manager. outlook does not show up as an option when i go to config sync. i have also tried uninstalling both programs and reinstalling. nothing. nay ideas?

Are you using Outlook '07 as well?
What OS are you running on your computer?
Exactly which versions of the Desktop Manager have you tried so far?

[ashleym2006]

My latest problem is synching Business Contacts. Has anyone had any luck with that?

Nope, nothing yet for BCM, I think their is another thread about it involving a 3rd party app, in this forum.

I haven't found a free way yet,
