You asked this question in another thread too. Please don't duplicate post.

I would recommend checking out the MAC Users Corner for assistance.

Thumbs up
Installed this OS 4 days ago and have had no problems. Battery life and radio do appear to be better.

PROS:
• Desktop Redirector now creates an actual email folder and icon for my redirected email.
• PDF email attachments now open.
• Under Messages Options - you can now choose items display in the main message list.

CONS (not really):
• Picture thumbnails can not be changed. It's hard set to 4 rows.

I have the 442 but damn it, it still has the caller id issues...Does everyone have these issues or is it just a few of us?

I also don't get any voicemail notification with this upgrade. Anyone else have this issue?

Don't have any of these problems, have you pulled the battery after you uploaded the software?

No caller ID or voice mail notification or any other issues with this or previous versions of OS. Battery life is improved over earlier versions, but I don't notice any difference from the recent version or two.

perform full backup of your berry.
use JL_Cmder or BBSAK to perform a full wipe of your berry.
downgrade to an older version.

Pretty sure this is an older version, based on apps and platform version numbering.

I have the Caller ID issue on both 423 and 442 too. It is annoying as hell, specially as there were no such issues on my previous 8900.
The blackberry is supposed to be a solid communications device, not one where I can't tell who is calling me.

Have you made 100% sure that your country code is set properly?
