Someone on another thread was having a similar issue using DM 4.5. Perhaps try going with DM 4.3?

What I suggested definately wouldnt help if the DM says 4.5 and the handset is 4.2... I think you should try to reinstal the DM and see if it finds the correct version.

I've done several uninstalls of DM 4.5 and reinstalls. nothing gets fixed.......

You're doing something wrong. Install DM. Install the OS. THEN delete vendor.xml. It WILL find the software as long as you're installing 8310 software.

What I usually do is setup DM to prompt me for the email profile. Then, I can hit "cancel" and it will treat it like a BIS upgrade with no connection to the server. I do my upgrade. Then when I'm done restoring and making sure the OS seems stable, I plug it back in, open DM and choose my email profile. Let it sit for a few minutes and EA will start on it's own.

I agree this is very important, as my IT people are getting frustrated wth me, I think. I would..... But your instructions are unclear to me, a novice. For example what's "vpn"; how do I set DVM to net/bes etc....

If you don't know how to do this I don't recommend doing it. You can easily screw up your email settings to where you won't be able to send/receive email. Any mistake and the connection between your BB and the BES will be broken. Contact your IT department and I'm sure, if they want you to be able to do this, they will help you install DM to be used in this manner.

JC,

In my DM 4.5, The server shows 'online'...so it means I am connected to the mail server, yes...?

So, if I want to upgrade now, without bothering my BB Administrator for Enterprise Activation, what exactly do I need to do..?

Thanks,

Ray

where do I look to learn if it's online etc?

CSO,

If you're having DM4.5, look at the bottom left corner of the main screen after you've plugged in your device :

Server status : Online

Cheers

Anybody have issues with this version and Docs To Go?

4.5.0.52 (recent TIM release) seems very stable except for Empower which stopped working when I upgraded from 4.5.0.37. I'm a sucker for upgrading when vendors release new versions of 4.5, but I always lose a half day fine tuning and getting all aps to work. I'm not complaining and know I don't have to step up to .55, but I'm hoping time will give us some observations on changes from .52. Any comments yet or is it too early?

not to mention we dont want people installing desktop manager in our company. nearly everything u can do from dm u can do from the handheld and dm is just one more place for something to go wrong. simplify.

Haven't heard of any issues. What issues are you having?

nandosze · 07-24-2008, 10:57 AM

.55 has given me my 3MB back that somehow got lost with the previous two betas. I'm back at 23MB free with a few things installed. I've only noticed one issue so far. On a couple of html emails, I get a prompt saying no message services, message cannot be sent just when viewing the email. I've never seen that before and I've had most 4.5 betas on here. Its not a real issue though and I feel this one is by far the fastest and its very stable like .52

Keep it going RIM

DOnt right click on the link to open in new tab/window. Just left click the link. It'll work then

billygoat32 · 07-24-2008, 01:58 PM

Click the "UpdateService" link then search for 8310, this is where it directs

http:/ / members.a1.net/updateservice/bb/

(remove spaces)

If your looking for the firmware update. I can't get the Desktop Manager link to work either, but you can navigate around the blackberry site to d/l it.

Hope that helps

Yes, confirmed the DM link at top of thread yields this error on the Blackberry.com website

"The page you have requested has been moved or no longer exists."
