for some reason my computer does not keep accurate time. I won't bore you with the details as to why I cannot get this fixed, but I would like to have my bb keep the time from its servers rather than sync with my pc. can anyone tell me where the setting is to configure this properly. thanks in advance.

In Desktop Manager, Intellisync, uncheck the two check boxes labeled "Update handheld's date and time". One is under the Auto Start tab.

That should help!

thanks for the help. that did it.
