First thing, you need to get the blackberry to connect to desktop manager. If you have been unable to accomplish this after removing the media card and after trying all USB ports directly on the computer, I'm thinking the following:
Plug into a wall charger and see if the blackberry shows it is charging. If not, that could be an indication that the USB is faulty. Manipulate the connection very slightly to see if you can get the blackberry to show it is charging. If the blackberry charging indicator comes and goes with that slight manipulation, then it would seem there is a mechanical failure in the connection.
If the blackberry shows that it is charging when using a wall charger, then try a security wipe, and select the option to wipe 3rd party applications as well. Afterward, try connecting to desktop manager via USB again. If you don't get a connection on the first USB, try the others.
At that point, if you still haven't been able to connect, then I guess try the procedure listed at

See what others say. Those are the steps I would take if I were in your spot.
