Activating a BlackBerry smartphone on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server and BlackBerry Unite! software
Your BlackBerry® smartphone can be active on both a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server and BlackBerry® Unite!™ software.

This functionality applies to the user logged in to BlackBerry Unite! software; make sure that you are logged in as the correct user. See Switching users for more information.

To activate a BlackBerry smartphone on both a BlackBerry Enterprise Server and BlackBerry Unite! software, complete the following steps:

Activate the BlackBerry smartphone using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.

Activating a BlackBerry smartphone using BlackBerry Unite! software before activating on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server will result in an IT policy error.

Connect the BlackBerry smartphone to the computer using a USB cable.

Click the Device management button.

Click the Mobile First Aid tab.

Click the Activate button to activate the BlackBerry smartphone.

When the activation is complete, disconnect the BlackBerry smartphone from the computer.

Unite is *very* hard to get rid of off the device. there are modules on there that I have only been able to remove with a device wipe/selective restore.

not sure if it will or not, its possible since they are technically apps installed on the device. just do a full backup now, then you can restore after.

And a data plan on the BB's.

I'd love to have my family's BB's on this but...no data plans on their BB's and can't get them.

It is basically a scaled down BPS that has added features. Its a nice consumer app. This offers something that no other smartphone has, and the fact that you can run it on a device with BES is nice.

I have a question about this BB Unite software. After reading about it and correct me if I am wrong, but can I stream music to my 8320 from my computer from anywhere in the world, as long as I leave my computer running. If this is true, the S%$t is bananas!!!!!!!!

My carrier doesn't support BB's. I use the data by filling correct APN and using Opera mini. So will this software give me ability to use BB browser and MMS features?

Is there any facility in BB Unite that synchronizes an outlook calendar with the Blackberry? I see references in the doc about posting things in the BB Unite Shared Calendar but don't see anything about getting access to the info from Outlook. Maybe an Outlook plugin?

up to 1 meg remotely... full downloads only can occur wirelessly via wifi on the local wifi network where the unite box is..

otherwise you can only transfer via usb cable if you have no wifi blackberry.

I have no data plans on two of my family BB's. I was able to use it over USB. It downloaded messages and transferred files just fine. I am installing it on another machine now to test over a Bluetooth connection.

well then you arent using the features of it. What you did you basically can do with desktop manager. This is a wireless sync not USB
