Desktop manager
 

Is this something I should be able to install on my personal PC? it ask for a password about half way through the install. I dont have one.

Thanks

I downloaded mine from blackberry.com for free. I bought my phone used and it did not come with the disk. The only password I used is the same password to unlock my phone from the home screen.

This is the password im looking at. Where do I find it?

No, that is very different from what I was dealing with.

Its looking for the password for the User "Jackson" on that windows PC. Do you use a password to log into that machine?

that isnt desktop manager. just cancel that and you can redownload desktop manager from the site.

I don't use a login password to get on my computer, thats the weird part. Ive tried to download this thing several times and keep getting that box. Am I downloading hte wrong thing? Could you post a link please? your didn't work dhollins

Yes, you're downloading the wrong thing.
You're trying to install BlackBerry Manager... which is a management tool for BlackBerry Enterprise Server.

BlackBerry Manager is NOT the same as BlackBerry Desktop Manager.

You need to download and install BlackBerry Desktop Manager. (Sometimes referred to as BlackBerry Desktop Software)

BlackBerry - PDA Software Downloads - Support & Services at BlackBerry.com

big file. ill try that after it downloads thanks penguin

Thats worked. Thanks again. Whats the best PIM program to use? Seems the search brings up a bunch of stuff I dont understand. Work with me guys it took me a week to get the desktop manager to work

I recommend Microsoft Outlook for most users.
If you have Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.) on your computer, you probably have Outlook installed as well.

You know I installed office but didnt see outlook

If you installed Office, then Outlook should be there, or do it again and make sure Outlook is a choice in the install.

What version do you have of Office?

office plus 07

If its not already installed on your computer, drop in the install cd and it should pop up asking you if you want to Repair, Add Features, Uninstall... etc. Choose the Add Features button (wording might be slightly different) the you will probably find that Outlook has a red X on it. Click that and choose Run from my computer. That should do the trick.

I got it working. I missed it on the first go around. I got it running and data has been synced

hey penguin3107-
i am trying to download the software for blackberry desktop manager and referred to the link you provided above. (thanks by the way)
however, i am pretty sure i should choose version 4.2.2 but how do i know if i get the one with service pack 1? or 2? or the version without service pack?

4.2. service pack 2 is definately the best one. 4.2 is the one without the service pack, and 4.2 sp 1 is also listed there.

you can fill in anything,it doesn't matter i think at least everytime it requires for a password i fill in numbers or letters,and everytime it does well
