BlackBerry Forums Support Community - View Single Post - 8330 syncing issues with Outlook through virtual Windows on VMWare Fusion

I have a MacBook Pro (from work) with VMWare Fusion installed for the PC side. (Windows XP, Office 2007) Recently moved to this from an old Dell laptop.

Initially, after configuring BB Desktop messenger on the PC side, everything was syncing fine. Suddenly, I'm unable to sync calendar. I hit a record - a different one each time - that seems to freeze the sync and render BB Desktop software unresponsive, prompting a forced quit.

Tried troubleshooting with Blackberry Support, who after over 3 hours, blamed the problem on VMWare. I AM able to still sync it with the old Dell (which I've not returned yet, fortunately). However, this isn't a good solution.

Has anyone else had a similar problem? And if so, have you found a fix?

Thanks!
